Bathers at Rockaway saved the life of the guard and a bather this morning after the lifeguard had been knocked meonscious while rescuing Frank Cryan, an employee of a local theatre. Cryan had been caught in the under- tow and Allen Williamson, the life- sistance.

He reached Cryan and after get- ting the line about him started with him for the beach. When near the pier of Schillinger's pavilion a wave carried the pair with such force against the Jron uprights that Williamson was knocked unconscious. Cryan at the time was unconscious and was being supporte] by Willlamson. ‘Those on the beach, seeing the accident, grabbed the shore end of the line and @rew both men upon the beach, badly Druised. A physician was called, and after being rolled and pounded and put through the usual course both were re- Bored to consclousne: THREE SAVED BY HUMAN CHAIN FROM EAST RIVER, ‘A human life line seved three men from drowning off the New York, New ‘ Gaven and Hartford freight plier at the foot of Rutgers street just as dawn was breaking. Once on the pier the @escuers turned their attention to re- wiving the men who had been pulled out et the water. It was due to thelr ef- forts in this line that two of the rescued @en are not occupying slabs at the Borgue, instead of beds In Gouverneur Sospital. Two waiters, James Short, twenty- @ight years old, of No. 46 East Ninth atreet, and James McGuigan, twenty-six years old, of No, 3% Bast Eleventh @treet, wandered down to the freight Pier, secking a cart in which to sleep. Whey were all filled, but there was a barge tied up alongside the pler, and « they decided to make a bed of the deck. While walking along the stringplece @hort slipped and fell into the river. As he went down he yelled to McGuigan for help. Neither man could ewim. Mc- Guigan stretched out along the string- piece and extended a hand to the strug- Gling Short. The weight of the man in the water was too much for the would- be rescuer, and he, too, was struggling tor his life beside his companion, The cries of the two waiters were heard by Watchman Jerome Guerin, of No, #4 Cherry street, wno rushed to the barge and plunged in to the assistance of the drowning men, Graoving eucu man by the coilur, the pitcay waicna- man turned over on his back, and hola- 2 ing their heads above water, howled lustily for help. ‘Minutes seemed to be hours, and in thelr fear Short and McGugan strug- gled flercely, Guerin was torced to let the men go under time and again to umgelf.

E. Louls Hyman, who had kept a sa- months, killed himself to-day while tak- ing a meal in the rear of his place o! business, and dled instantly. Business reverses and financial misfortune generally are assigned as the cause for the sulckje. Hyman was fifty-five years old and had lived with hls wife and two children at ‘No. 149 West Forty-fourth street. Joseph H. Rogers, manager of the saloon, had been talking with his em- ploysr a few minutes before the latter shot himself. He came upon Hymau, who sat with a meal before him but not touching it. He was a picture of despondency. “What's the matter?” asked Rogers. “Nothing,” said Hyman; ‘just a little down in the mouth over busines: “Brace up,” Rogers answered; “things are bound to brighten up and everything will come out all right." “Yes, everything will be all right; everything will como off all right," and the manager turned away trom Hyman and went to the front of the store, ig- norant of the true meaning of his em- Ployer's words. A moment later he and Joseph Del- gardy, another employee, heard a pis- tol report and ran to where Hyman was sitting upright, with a revolver in his hand. He had tried to blow the top of his head off. The man was dead, but Dr. Riggins was summoned to settle all doubt. The bullet had entered the right temple and lodged in the brain. Before embarking in business on his own account Hyman was employed as manager in @ saloon at No, #69 Broad- way. The location he selected for his own efforts was in a nest of old-estad- lished places, and despite everything he did he found {t impossible to turn trade away from his competitors’ doors. VICTIM OF GOUT ATTEMPTS SUICIDE, Herman Arnin Ie Found In Central Park with Both Wrists Gashed by Policeman. Herman Arnin {s a victim of the gout. ‘The greater part of the sixty-four years of his life has been spent seeking the Joys of the table; now he suffers ex- cruciating pain. Shortly after daylight Arnin aroused his wife, Maria, saying he was golng to take a walk in Central Park, and left his home at No, 96 Second avenue. Policeman De Vinne, of the Park squad,.was patrolling his beat on the Fifth avende side, near Elghty-fifth street, when he came across Arnin ly- ing on the ground near a park seat. The old man had gashed both wrists with a razor and was slowly bleeding to death. An ambulance call was turned in and Arnin was taken to Bellevue Hospital a prisoner. He will recover.

Mrs. Loutse Roge twenty-seven years old, is dying a home, at No. 16 Division avenue, Williamsburg, as the result of an attempt to end her life by inhaling gas. There are no gas fixtures in the apart- ment Mrs. Rogers occupied with her husband, John, and three children, and last night, while rogers and the children were sleeping, she secured a gas tube and went downstairs to the lower hall. There she attached one end of the tube to the front hall jet, and tying the other end to her mouth she lay down on the floor, Yarly to-day Mrs. Hough, who lives on the ground floor of the house, smelied gas and awakening her husband went out into the hall, They found Mrz.

I found that ‘FORCE ” consists exclusively of what my previous analysis indicated, yiz.: Whole Wheat hate with a flavoring of Table Salt, flaked, cooked and’ sterilized by 800 degrees of heat. A feature of the manufacture which finpressed me considerably was the fact that the process Is entirely mechanical, the food being prepared, cooked and boxed by machinery, without ever coming tn contact with the hands or clothing of the mill operatives. I was also gratified to note that an experienced Chemist daily supervised the entire output, and that each day's manufacture was tested by an expert Signed, | WILBUR L.
