A Former Californian Commits Suicide
in Nevada.

in Nevada.
AUSTIN (Nev.), March g. Richard
O'Mally, a pioneer OF the Pacific Coast,
committed suicide here Friday evening.
That suicide was premeditated is con-
ceded, for throughout the day he gave
away many personal effects. About 7:3O
he left his usual place of resort al id in a
few minutes report of firearms was
heard, but its being so muf1led it aroused
no curiosity. On his failing to put in an
appearance yesterday a search revealed
the dead body lying in a bent position on
the floor OF his cabin, with an old Colts
revolver lying near by. The shot en-
tered the right temple. He has been en-
gagged in mining in Inyo County for
years, but recently his prospects had be-
come blighted, and to this, with general
debility, is suicide attributed. He was
resioent of Downieville, Cal, in 1850, and
a resident OF this vicinity since 1868, and
was "a native of New York, aged 63 years.
