HOW HARRIS SUICIDED.
A FORMER LOS ANGELES HNWS.
PAPER MANS FATE.
He Puts q Bullet In His Head = He
Leaves an Incoherent Letter which
Indicates That Business Trou-
bies Were the Cause.

T. S. Harris, a man we'll known in this
section, other parts of California, and in
Nevada, committed suicide in San
Francisco early Saturday morning. The
Examiner gives the following account oil
| the tragedy:
Shortly after O'Clock Yesterday
morning. at 3l5 Ellis street. t. s. Har-
ris. printer. aged about so years, shot
himself through the head, and was
found stretched across the bed, with the
revolver in his hand and bullet hole
just above the right ear. The police
patrol was summoned and the wounded
man taken to the receiving hospital. In
the edge of the glass in the bureau in
the room there was pinned note,
which read as follows:
II have had great time. Never mind
what may be said. Many people say
what they think they know. They will
know more as they grow older. But
what is the use of knowledge when it
comes in contact with brains cultivated
by years OF experience? l devote my
brains. Help yourself to what is left.
My wife is at 2l4 Eleventh street. The
board of supervisors will pay for my
burial. 1T. S. HARRIS"
At the receiving hospital DR.. Coffman
probed for the bullet. He soon found
that it was impossible to relieve the
patient. Harris was placed on a cot
and stimulants administered in order
that he might be operated on later in
the day. About 8 O'Clock the wounded
man regained consciousness for few
minutes. His wife was at his bedside,
but he failed to recognize her. In an
swer to questions by the surgeons he
talked readily, but did not answer intel
ligently.
why did you shoot yourseli?" was
asked.
"Oh, didn't shoot" he answered.
"Well, then, who shot your"
Nobody; nobody at ALL"
"Whst caused that great hole in your
head ?'
"My heads all right. Give me some
water" he replied, and then he re-
lapsed into unconsciousness.
His wife said that poverty was un-
doubtedly the cause of her husbands
suicide. She said he was q Mason, a
Grand Army man, and had, in his time,
been the owner and publisher OF sew
eral newspapers.
From papers in his wife's possession
it was found that Harris had been
lieutenant and an adjutant OF the Cali
fornis volunteers during the war.
Mr.. Harris had owned a number of
newspapers in his time. When the
Panamint district, Inyo county, was in
a prosperous condition, he conducted
the Darwin News. When Bodie, Mono
county, was enjoying an immense boom,
he was one of the proprietors of the
Daily Standard of that place. For
time the paper was very prosperous.
Leaving Bodie. he went to Santa Ana
and started the Standard. From there
he came to Los Angeles and assisted in
starting the Republican of this city.
While here he also conducted a paper
called the Free Lance. The last news
paper venture of Mr.. Harris was in Tu-
lare, where he printed the Weekly
Standard. Mr.. Harris was unfortunate
in business affairs. He enjoyed socia-
bility. and WAS generous in all bis finan-
cial affairs. A large circle of acquaint-
ances will regret to learn of Mr.. Harris
tragic end.

Mr.. Bundrum's error that lost the game,

He was joked all of the day in reference

The Marriage Of Mr.. Harry AtchisOn'
and Miss Nadine Bush.

Mr.. Harry .Atchison, son of Col.
lector John w. Atchison, and Miss
Nadine Bush, daughter of Jerry
Bush, were united in marriage
by Rev. W. B. Taylor at the BRIDES
home in Centralia at 1 O'Clock Thurs
day, each taking into sacred keep
ing the happiness and the highest
welfare of the other. 1t was a quiet
wedding, only the family and few
immediate friends witnessing the
ceremony. Miss Nadine Bush made
a beautiful bride and will be a loving
helpmate in the noble position OF
wife-the most perfect attainment
in Christian life. Mr.. Atchison is
a young man with steady habits
and admirable business qualifca-
tions,a gentleman with lots of warm
friends. He is the efficient salesman
at L. 6. Adams clothing house.
Those who were present at the
wedding from Mexico were R. D.
Worrell, Thomas Atchison and Miss
Mamie Mosley. The happy pair
returned from Centralia on the fast
Wabash and will remain with the
groom's parents until Harry can
erect a new home. Mr.. Bush, Miss,
Ida Snow and Miss Nora Hughlett
accompanied the wedding party
back to Mexico and will he present
at the wedding supper given by Mr..
and Mrs. John Atchison this even
ing at their cozy home in West
Mexico.
MIR. and Mrs. Atchison have the
good wishes of many friends that
their dreams of early love may
build themselves up into palace of
peace and Joy for the comfort and the
shelter of old age.

more than it is in Missouri; rent is
about like it is in Mexico would
think; vegetables and -four are
cheaper; meat and butter some
higher, ,and fuel is much higher than
in your country. We get such vege'

beets, cabbage, cauliaower and car
rots fresh every day. We have had

berries since we came but they are

In the New Year.

The entire world, Russia except
ed, began the new year with the
first day of January; in that be-
nighted country the new year will
not be ushered in until March 25.
This last date was the opening OF
the new year in England and Amer
lea up to within less than $50 years
ago. 1t was in 1721 that the fam
GUS Lord Chesterfield secured the
passage of a bill which set the be-
ginning of the new year for Jan
uary 1.
In Continental Europe, on the
other hand, January has been new
Years day for more than three CEN
turies. In 1882 1t was so ordained
by Pope Gregory and adopte dby all
Europe, with the exception of Eng
land, Sweden and Russia,
Another change besides that OF
altering the date of the new year
was made by Lord Chesterfield's
reform. Up to that time the Eng
|lish calendar was eleven days be-
hind that of other European coun'
tries. That is, when it was June l
or July l in England, it was the
18th of the month in Continental
Europe. BY the Chesterfield change
the calendar date was advanced
eleven days. This change is what
brought about the transition from
"old style" to 'new style" OF reck-

Those Self-Patching Trousers.
From The Albany Argus.


A Rochester man certainly de-
serves to have his name written
among the benefactors of the race.
He has invented selfpatching jackets
and trousers, and his idea is said to
work admirably in practice. The
scheme is simple one, but SO are
hundreds of inventions that have
brought fame and fortune to their
orig;nators. The cloth is of double
thickness where most of the wear
comes, the pattern being carefully ad-
iusted SO as TO coincide in each piece.
When the outer covering wears
through only the rough edges have
to be darned in, and the pattern
and the cloth remain intact. The
man in whose mind this great
idea developed has other fields to
conquer. Self-adjustable shoe and
suspender buttons are the natural
accompaniments to self-darning
clothing. When these are forthcom-
ing, perhaps we can spare the wo'
man for politics.
