SOUGHT BoULANGER's END.
Dependent Saloon-Keeper Tries {.
Take His Own Life.


Noel Bengley, formerly proprietor Of the New
port saloon, on Pike street between Front and
Second streets, attempted suicide yesterday
afternoon about $50 O'Clock, while standing at
the bar of the Congress saloon, on the corner Of
Front and Pine streets.
Bengley has been out of business since July I,
and since that time has been drinking heavily.
Entering the above mentioned place yesterday
afternoon he joined in q carousal going on
there, and was leaning on the rail OF the bar
when some one ordered the drinks. Taking up
the glass Of liquor placed before him
he turned to his companions and
said: "This II my last drink, boys" There
was nothing startling in the remark, but Beng
ley followed it by pulling Smith & Wesson
32-caliber revolver from his pocket and, placing
the muzzle at his right temple, fred. His
hands dropped and the revolver fell to the
hoor For an instant the body of the wounded
man stood upright and rigid, then fell to the
floor, as the blood burst from an ugly wound
Just In front of the lobe OF the ear. Medical aid
was summoned and an examination showed
that the bullet, which was meant for instant
death, had been diverted downward and lodged
in the feshy part of the jaw. Rcstoratives were
applied and the man regsined consciousness.
He was then removed to Providence hospital,
where DR.. George II. T. Sparkling probed for the
bullet 1t was located but could not be re-
moved on account of the condition OF the
patient. While the wound is an ugly one there
is no danger Of death.
Bengley has wife, but no children, and came
to Seattle In the fall OF 1893 from Fond du Lac,
Wis, where he was well known and respected.
Previous to coming to Seattle he was employed
by A. X. Latin & Co., large Wholesale dry
goods house. His irstyenture in Seattle was in
the vinegar business, but dishonest partners
left town and took the capital he had invested.
In the fall Of 1889 he opened the Newport saloon
and for time prospered, but soon poor manage
ment OF the business with which he was unac-
quainted got him into trouble, and after drag
ging along to the 1st of last July he was COM
PEELED to turn the business over TO his creditors.
Since that time he has been respondent and re-
sisted all efforts of his wife to reclaim him from
the downward path.
At the hospital Bengiey told the sisters that
the idea of suicide had been suggested to his
mind by reading the account Of Boulsnger's sui.
eide In the morning papers.
