A CYNICAL Republican, in COM
menting on the late appointment Of
Superior Judge, says that he favors a
"chronic office holder to chronic Office
seeker" and gives the following reason

that he Was in his usual health and

from the store, and his brother Morris
and the bookkeeper of the firm, fear

room and found the doo- locked. En-

the object of their search living on his
back in bed, attired in his night
clothes, the bed covers partially thrown
from his body, the head resting on a
blood soakcd pillow, and the lower
part Of his face covered with blood.
In one hand was clutched a 3S-caliber
Smith & Wesson revolver, with two
chambers empty, only one of which
showed evidence, however, of being
recently discharged. The wound
which caused his death was in the
mouth, the bullet entering at the root
Of the tongue. ranging upward lodging
near the base of the brain. 1t was the
opinion of the Coroners jury who
made an investigation of all the cir.

have been fired between 4 and 5
o'clock and his death instantaneous.

thought better to wait and catch mp

tinues to improve, and the shipments
