David Balm came to Eureka some six
months ago from Carson, where he had q
drug store for a year or two. In Carson
he has two married sisters, one Of whom
is Mrs. James Kennedy, whose husband is
q clerk in the employ Of the Virginia q
Truckee Railroad Company. He has a
brother in the machine shops Of the same
company, and another brother who is
somewhere on the coast on a pleasure trip
from Canada. Mr.. Balm came here to take
the place Of druggist in DR.. Hagar's store.
He was Q very quiet, retiring man, and
few knew what his habits or disposition
were. II seems he WAS very fond OF
strong drink. and when once started
would drink until nearly crazy. About
. week ago he got to drinking, and
has been OF a spree ever since.
DR.. Hsgar had to put another
druggist in his place, and in the mean
while took every precauticn to keep Mr..
Balm out OF the store, and left instructions
there to that effect, because he feared that
the man, beside himself with drink, would
take something and destroy himself.
Yesterday morning about II o'clock, while
the store boy, Frank johnson. was clean
ing the windows In front, Mr.. Balm slipped
In through the back door to the prescription
case. He was detected there shortly after
| wards, but not before he had probably
taken down . dose Of chloral hydrate,
| although this Is mere conjecture. He was
taken Ill in the afternoon and has received
every attention from DR.. Hagar and other
friends. At 11:15 last night he was
lying, breathing heavily, in his room at the
Morgan House. He was without sensation
entirely. The Doctor opened the patients
| eyes and pressed his finger upon the naked
ball without seeming to excite any feeling
whatever. At the hour named II was not
supposed he could survive long, and the
| physicians, Hagar aud Williams, agreed
that there was no hope OF his recovery.
His stomach had been emptied by Q pump,
the contents showing only clear fluid,
which, however, by its appearance would
moi indicate the presence Of the fatal dose
he took in the morning-chloral hydrate.
By this time he has probably passed into
the great beyond. He is a graduate OF the
| Toronto College OF Pharmacy, a native OF
Flora, Canada, and about 26 years OF age.
A quiet, inoffensive, useful, good man who
got tired Of living. -.
At 1890 the unfortunate man was still
alive, but there was hardly a shadow OF
| hope that he would survive more b
| three or four hours. A vial OF morphine
! was found in the room at q late hour, from
| which 90 grains are missing. and 1t is
supposed that he swallowed them, instead
of chloral-hydrate, as at first suggested.
