DEPOSIT VAULTS ROBBED.

 OMAHA, Oct. 27.-Tho fact was made public here that the safety deposit vault section of the Omahn National bank had been robbed and so dcxtrously that no clew to the manner In which the work was done Is obtainHblc. Large sums of money havo been taken from boxes in tho vault and the exact amount of tho losses cannot bo known until all have been examined. Tho discovery was made nore than two weeks ago, and every pre- caution has been taken by the bank off rials to keep the matter q closo secret.
 The principal loser Is William Gladish. Last March he placed in his box S. GOO in gold On Oct. T he discovered that about Sl, zoo of tho amount was missing. Ho at onco notified President Willard of the bank, and tho investigation commenced. 50 far. however. all efforts to discover tho manner In which tho money was lost havO failed.
 Tho vaults arc under tho management of lady who is in every way fitted for the responsibility of tho position she holds. No shadow of suspicion exists that the losses have occurred through hor knowledge or Connivancc. Tho safety vaults arc modelled after tho latest system in the country, and tho private boxes are surrounded with every safeguard. Tho leSsvo has a password. and no two indi- vidunls can have the same password. Tho bank officials or detectives offer no OK planatiOn other than to declare it Is not due to the Carelcssness of the bank em- ployoes. All deposits arc guaranteed by the bank

PLAYED HIS OWN DIRGE.
Pathetic Suicide of a Poor Old
 German Musician.
HE FEARED HE WAS GOING CRAZY.

KurrIE Played Last Tune on His Beloved
 Cello and Then srnt n Bullet Through
 His Brain Died CIaspIng the Instru-
 ment and With tue Bow In His Hand.
 NEW YORK. Oct 27.-Christina JorSen- ten stopped on the stairs leading to her homo on tho second floor of 2Ol East Sev- enteenth street. Sho had been out after pail of fresh milk for her sick lodger, old white haired Josef Kurris, tho mu- sician. She leaned against the stair rail ing and listened to the swelling strains of music as they floated down the dark hallway and filled the dank atmosphere with sweet melody. She knew that old Josef was amusing himself by playing on the viOlonccllo, something ho had not done before for weeks.
 Tho music brought back to kindly Christina visions of youth and childhood. Her ears woro opened again to the rus ting of leaves on the trees in tho Wurtenl- berg forests. There were chydren gayly dancing on the green turf. The sturdy, rosy checked boys and girls shiGted with laughter
 A pistol shot stopped her musings. The music suddenly ceased, and n great still ness which fell over the house alarmed her. As she hurried up stairs the punGont odor of gunpower Iloated out through the uoor oL hurrlL $ room. Shc ncaru BrOGn
 Died CIaspInE His Cello.
 Josef Kurriz sat on the bed. On his arm lay tho neck of his violonccllo. and in one hand smoking pistol was held. His head was bcnt over tho beloved in strumcnt. and his white locks, all drip ping with the lifo blood which flowed from wound in the right temple. inter twined with the strings of tho viOloncello The kindly blue eyes were closed in death, and the spirit which had called song from the instrument had flown away
 In n notebook was found n written eS- planation, meagGr, but convincing. It read:
 1T writo to all who know mo that cannot bear any moro of my life. for suffer most unspeakahly day and night and I cannot sleep. I did not think of doing evil until l began to be Crazy-not from hunger or bad attention as the land lady has dono all she could for me For give me. n wLkcd sinner, this. deathly sin. JOSEF kEEEIZ.''
 Tho suicide had no relatives in this country. Ilo came to the United states 10 years ago and has played in many prominent orchcstras in Now York. He was a member of the German army dur ing the Franco Prussian war and played in n regimCntal band.
 His instrument Is an old fashioned one and had been in his possession over n score of years IIc hrsl suffered from q complication of diseases and had been confined to his room for weeks.
 When they laid the old man out on the bed and took away the cello it was found that some of the strings had parted. The bow was tightly clinched in his left hand. wherc ho had placed it when hc took up tho pistol to fire tho fatal shot. He willed his insurance money, which will be paid by tho Musical Mutual Protective union. to his landlady, Mrs. ICrg, nscn.
