THE DEATH OF II. W. LATHAM

tion Takes Action
Testimonial to the Deceased's Hany Virtues
and an Expression of Sorrow Placed
Upon Record-Was a Member

At meeting of the California society.
geles, June II, 1896, the following men,
orial upon the death of Harry Wood
Vile Latham was unanimously adopted:
Harry Woodville Latham, who was
elected to membership in this society on
the 21st day of February, 1894, died at
Pasadena on May IA, 1896, and it is but
just that we place upon record a testi-
monial to his many virtues, and an ex-
preston of our sorrow for the loss of a
companion whose amiable disposition
had won high place in our regard.
He was a jealous member of this society,
proud of the ancestral record which Sc
cured his eligibility to become one of
us, and ever watchful over our united
interests; soicitous, with jealous care,
that our standard should not be lowered
from that splendid height upon which
our principles have placed it.
He was an industrious lawyer, con-
servative and prudent in all matters en-
trusted to him, and safe guide and
counsellor for those who sought his aid
He lived in the regard and affections
of his friends, and the respect of all
with whom he came in contact
Seldom have men of his few years Sc
cured so general a regard from his
neighbors, and brilliant future, as well
as useful career, appeared to open
before him.
He was loving son, and an affec-
tionate brother, and we, the Sons of the
Revolution in the State of California,
hereby extend to that widowed mother,
and only brother, our most profound
sympathy for their great loss in the
taking away of this bright young lif.
around which had clung so many hopes.
The secretary is hereby directed to
transmit to Mrs. Latham a copy of this
memorial and to spread the same at
large upon the records, and further.
that he shall devote one entire page of
said record, Immediately following the
copy of this memorial, upon which shall
be recorded the following:
Harry Woodville Latham,
Born in
Lynchburg, Virginia,
September 30, 1862.
Elected member of this Society
February 21, 1894.
Died at
Pasadena, California.

SICK AND DESPAIRING
A Patient in the County Hospital Seeks
Refuge in Death
Ends His Existence by a Revolver Bullet in
His Brain-Affiicted With Cancer of
the Jaw and Was Doomed

AT the county hospital last evening an
inquest was held by Coroner Campbell
upon the remains of William Gregg, who
died at p. m. from the effects of a gun
shot wound inflicted with his own hand
on Wednesday morning at o'clock.
Gregg had been an inmate of the hos
pital about three months and was being
treated for cancer of the jaw. He was
about 65 years of age and came to this
section from Providence, RI Some time
since an operation was performed on
him in which a portion of the lower jaw
was removed in the hope of checking the
progress of the disease. This did not
avail and the upper jaw had become
badly affected.
His ailment was exceedingly painful
and Gregg was kept under the influence
of morphine the greater part of the time.
a few days ago he asked permission to
go down town to purchase some cloth
ing, and while he was in the city he
must have procured the revolver with
which the deed was done. At 8 am
Wednesday the report of a pistol star
tied the inmates of the ward and the
night nurse, running to Gregg's cot,
found him lying unconscious. with bull
let wound in the right side of his head
1t appears that while the nurse was in
distant portion of the ward Gregg had
taken the revolver from under his pillow
and, placing it to his temple. pulled the
trigger. The bullet did not plow direct
ly through the brain, but was DETECTED
and passed around the outer edge of the
brain, lodging in the back. Until / o'clock
Thursday afternoon Gregg fingered.
when he died without regaining con-
sciousness. The cause for the deed was
undoubtedly despair at his physical con-
dition and the knowledge that he had
but short time to live anyway, causing
him to decide to hasten the inevitable
end. A verdict of suicide in accordance
with the established facts was rendered
by the iIry

James Boland applied at the receiving
hospital yesterday afternoon at $3.50 for
treatment Of badly cut hand, which
he had sustained by thrusting his arm

Boland was well under the influence Of

such manner that his hand we.lt through

MOST PAINFUL ACCIDENT
Clark GARNER, Employed at the Pipe Works
Crushed In the Rolls


At IL noon yesterday, Clark GARNER,
30 years Of age. employed in the Consol-
idatel Pipe company's works at S76 Stew
enson avenue. met with a serious and
painful accident which will incapaciate
him from work for some time. He was
feeding pair Of huge rollers which are
used to curve sheetiron into a circular
shape, when it is rivited into pipe. While
so engaged the front of his overalls be-
came caught in the rolls and he was
dragged up to and partially into the ma
chine. A tender portion of his body was
horribly mutilated by the iron cylinders.
and there is no doubt but that his whole
frame would have been drawn in but
for the fact that the belt slipped Off.

GARNER was conveyed to the receiving
hospital by the patrol wagon, where DIR.
Bryant rendered surgical assistance. He
was sewn up, and later went to his home
at No. 40 West Second street, to re-

Ask Your Doctor

How to recover the force of your nerves
when they are weak. He will advise
electricity, because he knows-if he is
not an old fogy-that the nerve power of
man depends on electricity; that if the
nerves and vital organs, which are sup
ported by the nerves, are weak, then
weakness is owing to lack Of this sub
tie element. The direct application Of
electric currents to the body for few
hours daily soon replaces the nerve
strength and builds the weakened func-
tions up to strong and vigorous condi-
ton. That is what makes manhood.

Then Discovers the Owner
An instance took place last Sunday
at Redondo. which from the infreouent
occurrence nowadays deserves special
mention. Mrs. Hannah Rees, the wife
Of Lewis Rees Of 'The AGO. in this city,
was spending the day at that seaside
resort, and on entering bath house
discovered well-f1lled pocket book ly-
ing on the floor. 1t was evidently the
property Of woman who had vacated
the bath house just as Mrs. Rees was
entering 1t.
During the remainder of the day Mrs.
Rees searched everywhere, and late in
the afternoon found the woman, who
was nearly distracted, and handed her
the missing pocket-book unopened.
Mrs. Rees is now conscious of having
done good action and the fortunate
woman has received lesson she will
