SUICIDE.
A Young Mexican, Proudly Power.

With a Bullet.

A Young Mexican, Proudly Power
ty Stricken, Ends His Life
With Bullet.
Last night about $50 o'clock, Jesus
Cortez, a young Mexican about %
years of age, ended his life by shoot-
ing himself through the head with a
pistol. He left letters which declared
he did 1t of his own free will and
these letters showed plainly that des-
pondency was the cause. The act was
accomplished at the residence OF Mrs.
Dolores Salinas, on South Flores
st rect, near Vollrath's blacksmith
shop, where he had been boarding
for the past two months. He came
from the city of Cerralvo, state of
Nueva Leon, Mexico, and is of a good
family. He had letters of introduce
ton to DIR. Ornelas, the Mexican
consul, and had tried to obtain
employment, bat was unable to do so.
He could speak nothing but his ma
tive tongue and found this a barrier
to obtaining employment. The sui
cidal act was evidently contemplated
for several days, as he left a book adj
| dressed to a friend and dated on the
2Sth of November, besides other little
souvenirs to different friends. To
Mrs. Salinas he left note, in Span
ish, saying he had no money to pay
her for board, and bequeathing his
little effects to her. At o'clock yes
terday he came home and went to his
room, and at o'clock the body was
found dead, lying on his bed. with
the pistol beside him. The ball went
entirely through his head and into
the pillow.
Justice McAllister was called upon
to hold the inquest which is not yet
ended.
