Officers Kenny and Henneaiy, of Elizabeth, heard three shots in the bouse of Joseph M. j*buch, No. 1J8 First avenue, rtoselle, when they rang the bell Tuesday evening to find what was meant by a letter sent to County Physician WrstooU by Pouch. The front door was locked and the officers forced it In. When they reach ed the top of the stairs and pulled open the door-to the front room on the sgooud ft6or, the w dy of Pouch fell to the floor. There was a bullet wound in his temple and he died soon. On the floor beside him lay his daughter, “Behind the dim unknown StandeUi God within the shadow, keeping Welch above hit own.’’ * rv: And what seemed death to the nat ural sense was only a hiding away of 'the germ Immortal with God standing 1 guard, ready to bring it forth In good time.

The door to the connecting back room was forced open, and the officers found lying on the bed, laid but In their night, clothes, with'tbeir hands crossed over their breast, the bodies of Grace, eighteen months old, and Lillian,, aged seven. These ^-children had been choked to death Saturday night, and to make their death sure poison had been poured into their throats. Pouch had been working for the Singer Sewing Machine Company at Elizabethport as a henchman, but after the death of his wife he had only worked but a short time. He grew morose and his mind seemed ready to give way under the burden, ffe did not refer to the death of his wife, but wht never it was mentioned he became excited and afterward would go away by himself, and sit for hours without uttering a word. Pouch employed a housekeeper after the death of hta wife, as the children were too young to be left at home alone while he was at work. Several days ago she left the home of Pouch, and It is believed that be sent her away. Since that time Pouch has been in the house alone with* his children, and the neighbors on either side of his' house, which Is a two story and attic, did not seb an/ of the ChiWrwi Stm-; day. Sunday evening Pouch was seen talking to a woman in front of bis house. Later, when a storm came.up, Mr. Packard, of Elizabeth, who knew Pouch, sought shelter at his bouse He remaim d for about ba'f an hour He says that Pouch appeared nervous and unstrung and he believes that Baby Gra:e and Lillian then were dead in the upstairs room, with their brother and sister locked in the ad joining room, forbidden to leave their beds. It is believed they were held over to be sbot, when Put ouch bad planned to take his own life. The letter to County Physician Westoott was received by him Tuesday afternoon, and was mailed in .the morning. It was properly addressee and simply requested that be oome to the address given as there was some thing for him to do there. The letter was. signed by Pouch, who gave his address. Pouch was not seen around his home after he went out, returning In a short while Tuesday morning. It is probable that with be, with revolver ready and children locked TOTCtirroom with him, waited for the ring at the bell which would announce the arrival of the (Jounty Physician as the signal for kit ing bis two remaining children. Albert, the eldest, has a bullet hole through bis body, but the physicians at the Elizabeth General Hospital say that he has a chance to live. He was conscious when taken to the hospital, and told what he knew of the tragedy which robbed him if his sisters and father. He was not asked about the death of his mother, but probably can throw light on tbafc~ If he recovers sufficiently to tell in detail of the tragic events in his home. “My sister Minnie and myself sleep in the front room with papa, and Lil lian and baby Grace sleep in the back room," he said. “The door is open between the two rooms at night, and we can hear the baby or Lillian when they cry or want anything. On Sat urday night papa told us to go to bed, and I don’t know what time be came to bed. “On Sunday morning he got up and went into the back room. He shut the door and was gone quite a long time.

We remember the deep dark shadow under the rough old oak, and the ruddy lights through the red cur tained windows; the pleasant rooms, the books, the music, and—mother. Do you remember mother? It is your mother we mean. The mother who laughed over our baby antics, grew proud of our boyish triumphs, bid her sad heart beats when we left the home fold to win our way In the world, the mother whose hair grew grar~tir care for us, whose-beart grew humble by the multitude of her prayers In our behalf; whose face grew more tender as the years marked their progress upon her cheecks, whose steps faltered and whose hands trembled because her bouyaucy bad been given freely in our behalf. The mother who stal in the old home while wd 'Wefr far away. The mother bird in the nest after the fledgling had flown. There came at last a letter to us in another band, and dear old mother was at rest. Then we went home but the old- time home was gone forever. Ah, we know, how trivial everything then seemed beside mother’s love. We know how a kind word of old would have cheered her heart. We know how toe business cares crowded out the home letters; and how mother watched and waited for the tardy mis sive. We know how, her heart bled for an old time caress,’and bow she went to rest with a prayer on her lips for you.

Watch her steps how they falter. Cherish her,. Show her your love. Court her ks you would a sweetheart. If you would make her happy.

All communication with the land was cut off. The roof of the conning tower was bolted In, and silently the waters of the bay closed over the grim- looklng craft at a quarter past eleven Wednesday night, and she slowly sank below the surface, having on board nine officers and men, who had vol unteered for the test. .

It was made under the superviaicn of the Navy Board of In spection and Survey, consisting of Captain T. J. Train, Captain J. H. Dayton, Captain J. J. Woodward, Commander Walter C. Cowles; brother of the oommander of the battle ship Missouri, and Lieutenant-Commander Isaac S. K. Reeves.

There was an Interval of five minutes, and then slowly from the depths rose a great mass of gray iron. It looked like a whale rising for a sunning.” \ , “how's THE WBATHKR?” CABLE ASKS.

Cable was toe first to appear. “Good morning,” he said cheerily. “How’s the weather?” . Cable has made about two thousand trips below, in European as well as toe American waters. He con fesses a preference ifor deep-sea life, with an occasional breathing spell,, fishlike, above the surface.

CABLE SAYS, Having been down in submarine boats about two thousand times, the sensation was not new to me. But there is no particular sensation. The air was just as good below, as it is up here. I slept comfortable. I know that Captain Woodward is very particular about the air in his sleeping room, and when be was satisfied tbeie is nothing more to be said. For eleven hours and a half we liv ed on the free air in the boat. We real ly did not have to draw on the reserve supply, but I thought it well to test the apparatus to see that It was in working order.

Sleeping under the water in submar ine boats is easy acquired by men who work with these types of boats, and there is no more to fear in them, like our trip just ended, than in sleeping to board a water vessel of apy kind. Everything In the boat worked well and we simply carried out the orders Of the trial board and were happy and willing to lay down and sleep. There Is no reason why the Fulton oould not have stayed down twice as long, for we had food and water, reading mate cards and checker boards to keep us happy for that length of time. Some of the boys hsd writing ma terial on board, and when they awoke Thursday for breakfast, which con sisted of eggs, milk, coffee and bread, they wrote letterg to some of their re latives, and' while these letters were being written there wss hardly the slightest perceptible movement of the boat.

But they all got a proportionate amount of sleep, and so far as I am aware, feel now no ill! effects from their experience. The test was in every respect a success. H. H. Morrell says: “Its a peculiar sensation when you begin to go down. If you have any fear at all, then is the time it strikes you. You know that you are shut in that there is water all around you, and It sort of catches your breath, butafter a while * you become accustomed to being where you are and it doesn’t seem at all strange. It is very quiet, of course, and there is no movement of any kind. I had a sleep, and I slept well and ate well.' We read maga zines and played chess and talked about our'strange position, but I don’t believe there was a scared man In the ship. We had perfect confi dence in the boat and absolute confi dence in our officers.,. It was a great exprienoe^” — Hi W. NabHt-says: It’s like being down in a cellar with a candle at mid night. We were comfortable ail through. Maybe it was a little crowded, but not any more than on one of the regular torpedo bo^ts or the old monitors. It isn’t any warm er than the water, and the air was all rights” . I hadn’t any particular sensations. It was rather depressing going down, sod naturally It was gratifying to see the light of day again after twelve hours of solitude. , , “ Charles W. Beechlold says: During the night, while I was oh watch, I was looking out of one pf the bull's eyes and a big ffkh s warn along, stopp ed short and stared at me in amaze- ment.—It was a most peculiar look ing thing, seen through the thick glass. His eyes glared right into mine, and then be darted away suddenly, as though scared half to death. - I think I should like to serve regularly on one of these boats. Henry Kuley says:', The worst thing about it is that you can’t smoke below. Mr. Cable says you might do that, for all the harm it probably would do, but there always is danger or a spark striking the gasoline, which wouldn’t be good even with the water ail around you. . • Child Suspended la Well.
