suicide of A J. Brown, OF Mabott & Brown,

stock were burned Monday morning. Brown
left home Wednesday morning on pretense
Of going into the country to collect some
money. He drove to Grand View Douglas
county, and purchased poison at the drug
store, saying he wished TO kill dog. He
went to his room IN hotel and took the
poison. His groans alarmed the inmates of
the house, and the room was broken into and
everything possible done to save the life of
the miserable man, but it was too late. He
died last night The business Of the firm was
In a very bad condition. and Brown, who was
agent for Bassett, Hunting Il Co., grain
dealers, was $500 short in his accounts The
subsequent developments have also aroused
suspicion in regard to the origin of the fire.
Brown was thirty years Of age, and leaves q
wife and one child. His wife is q daughter
Of the other member of the firm.

As County Examiner, we will try to carry out the law. Parties who are not willing to pass an eX- animation need not apply for cer- tificates. We cannot issue certiii- catcs because of past pr oticiency. We must know something of the applicants present ability. In ad- dition to other things, the law says of the examiner: "He shall not li- cense any person to teach who is given to profanitN drnnkenaess, gambling, HceHtiousness, or other dem0rdlizing tices, or who does not believe in the existence of a Supreme Being; nor shall he be required to grant private eXamina- tions. He may cite to re. examina- ton any person holding a license and under contract to teach any free school within his county, and on being satisfied, by a re-axami nation or by other means, that such person does not sustain good moral character, or that he has not sufficient learning and ability to render him competent teacher, he may, for these and other ade- Quate causes, revoke the license of such person; and, in case of such revocation, he shall immediately give notice thereof to such teacher and the directors, and thereby ter mnate the contract between the said parties; but the wages of such teacher shall be paid for the time be shall have actually taught, prior to the day on which he received notice of the revocation of his Ii cense."
 We hope that we have no immor- al teachers in Nevada county. If so, the law forbids that they have certificates.
