BLEW HIS HEAD OFF.
Patrick C. Kearns Committed Suicide
at Park City.
he Placed the NIuzzle of Revolver to
His Mouth and Pulled the Trig-
ger-Coroner's Inquest.

Ats O'Clock yesterday morning, Patrick
C.. Kearns suicided by shooting himself
through the head in the Mint saloon at
Park City, and died instantly.
From all the information at hand the
suicide seems to have been a mysterious
affair. Kearns was a young man about
20 years of age, and went to Park City
about year ago from Virginia City, Ne
vada, where his parents reside. He had
been employed as bartender, but had
been out of work for few days. Yester-
day morning, at the time mentioned,
while standing in the saloon he delib-
erately placed the muzzle of a revolver to
his mouth and pulled the trigger. 1t is
stated that he was not intoxicated and had
not been drinking and no reason whatever
for the rash act is known to exist.
A coroner's inquest was held, at which
the above facts were brought out and a
verdict of suicide rendered.
The young mans parents have been
notified, but as they replied that they
were unable to bear the expense of send
ing the remains to Nevada, they will
probably be inferred at Park City.

An erroneous impression seems to have
gone out concerning the Utah board of
lady managers. The statement has been
made in some quarters that they are paid
S. per day for their services. AS matter
of fact, they do not receive cent for their
labor and several of the ladies have de-
voted great deal of time to the work,
with gratifying results. ALI the money
that has been appropriated to the lady
managers has been for the purpose of de-
fraying the actual expenses incurred.

DECENT ROADS.

The Necessity for Them and the Present
Deficient System Discussed.
To the Editor of TIE HERALD.
l enclose a clipping from a New York
paper with the purpose of drawing some
attention to the subject of decent road
making. The part of the country de-
scribed in the paper is a light loose sand
and free from boulders. 1t therefore be-
comes necessary to use some material
which will pack and make a smooth road
way. The material to accomplish the
same must be hauled from ten to fifteen
miles by rail or boat or train, as there are
none on the line. This makes it somewhat
expensive to them, (the Iuhabitants)
but in the end they VIII have a road
bed that is permanent and free from
dust or mud in all weathers. How diff
ferent with US, who have hauled from and
upon our streets innumerable loads of the
very material needed If only properly
applied, instead of a foot or more OF red
mud until the city from end to end is but
one great sea of mud.
This policy of loading up the streets in
the summer and fall with clay and haul
ing the same away in the spring has been
the pet hobby OF all city councils and
promises to continue until the 'scrack o.
DOOM Arguments over and over again
have been presented for block paving and
asphalt but not a word in favor of the
best and cheapest method, viz: macadam
paving. Why is this? Is it because there
is not enough money in the scheme and
that it will not make a good and perfect
street, or is it matter of perverseness on
the part of our street supervisors who Sc
lect as they please and furnish teams? Is
it not fact that outside of private enter
prise we have not a single block in our
whole city that is as good as a common
country road in England? The material
is all too plentiful and l will venture to
say that the various streets can be more
cheaply macadamized than by any other
method and that they will be better,
cleaner and more lasting.
A boulevard is being mooted. By all
means have one-only be careful and
make it of bench mud so that it will be
mud all winter, and when sprinkled, mud
all summer. There is no excuse to be
made why every street in this city should
not have been as smooth and clean as
some of our sidewalks. Can not little
light be let into the fire-proof pates of our
city officers to cause them to view this
matter in correct light? 1t may not be
as profitable to the supervisor, but in the
end will be of a greater benefit to the
public.
One has only to look at Sixth South
street for all the example needed. There
hundreds of loads of mud have been
planted while the very material to have
made permanent street has been thrown
aside. Can we not now stop this boys play
and at least see what it will do for one
street. 1t is no experiment, as miles of
good roads will evidence to the observer.
Then let us move for good streets.'

vile city for damages, caused by that
corporation leaving bridge minus rail-

There is also another count for damage
to the buggy in the sum OF $500. The
case is now on trial.

Decidedly shaky.

A trembling hand, an uncertain step,
fidgetiness, indicated by restless shifting
from one place or posture to another,
usually mental annoyance at unexpected
noises, are among the indications of ex-
IRENE nervousness, These seem trifing,
but the health of men and women in this
condition is decidedly shaky,' liable
to be overthrown disastrously by causes
which the vigorous might defy. To for
thy the nervous System, general vigor
must, through the medium of reinforced
digestion, and renewal of an impaired
power OF sleeping at night, be raised to
healthful standard. A guarantee of this
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which re-
establishes digestion, bile secretion and
the habit of body on a permanently reg
ular basis, thus renewing that bodily
equilibrium, which is followed by gain
of strength and nerve tranquility. For
kidney complaint. rheumatism, neural
gia, and as a preventive of the first at
tack or subsequent return of malarial
disorders, this medicine is without a peer.
