With Bill Keeps Longshoreman From Watery Grave. Hans Jensen, burly longshoreman. was saved from a suicide's death day evening by the callousness of a patriot who" eyed, with evident relish, the preparations which Jensen WAS making to leap from the Webster street bridge. Hans was afflicted with acute melancholla, superinduced by a pint of gin. He decided that the world had failed to appreciate him and that the world should be taught a lesson.

In order that his departure from this mundane sphere should have the proper accessories, Hans waited until he saw some one approaching. Then calnily he removed his hat and shoes. and with great dignity he balanced, himself on the railing of the bridge. The propitious moment had ar. rived for taarful entreaties from the horrified spectator.

Did the horrified spectator interfere? He did not. The horrifled spectator turned out to be Jonsen's landlord who held an unpaid bill for three weeks' board and lodging. Swenson, the landlord, looked up at Jensen, the. landlubher, and said calmly: "Why you doan yump?" "Bane you want t' see me yump?" said Jensen in' dismay. "Ya." Jensen climbed down off the railing and put on his hat and shoes.

"Den ay tank ay gonna jump oder day," he said and off he trudged. Swensen told his story to a policeman at the foot of Broadway, but the latter worthy declined to arrest any man with as much intured dignity as Jensen.
