Shouded in Mystery.

ing sold on that date to an Old lady with
spectac,e es one grain OF morphine in doses
OF one-six b of grain each. These were
found in the envelope in Miss HolyweI s
room.
Uron being resuscitated after her first
attempt at suicide Miss Holywell made
no explanation of her action. nj ereIy re-
marking to those who had revived her
that 1t was very rude of them to come
into her room.
On Friday afternoon, about half past 8
o'clock, Miss Holywell purchased at Rut-
iedge's drugstore six grains of sulphate of
morphine, stating that sne was in pain
and that she was in the habit OF using the
drug. She gave her name as Miss La
blache and her residence as 2240 Durant
avenue.
Inve tigation revealed the fact that
there is no such number, 222S being the
highest number in the 300 block on
Durant avenue.
1t was with the poison thus obtained at
Rutledge's that the unfortunate student
ended her existence.
Such in brief are the facts of the un-
happy young woman's self-destruction.
What was the real motive which i'm pelled
her to her rash act?

uncommunlcauve girl. Young was

The young girl received this letter last
Monday morning. On Monday night she
made apparently an attempt at suicide by
taking morphine. Dr.. Eastman was called
IN and his efforts in this case proved sue
cessfuI. The girl had evidently taken a
dose too small to accomplish her purpose

These were few of the exclamations.
Manager Shea OF Fresno demanded a
new pire, declaring that he couldn' I
and wouldn't stand such raw work. Nc
Neil and A. Nj. Lawrence said that there
was no way provided in the rules for
changing an umpire. They advised Shea
TO file a protest with the committee.

protest in the Will d Finck game. We
have never heard from it. The matter
was not even mentioned in the tourna-

The storm increased in violence. Even
the usual placid Blockers Hanley got ex-

In all storms there must come calm. 1t
came in the WalCott- LavigDe fight when
Walcott got cramps. 1t came in yester-

lover, indicates a possible solution; but
the letter itself furnishes a mystery
scarcely less mystIfying.
The unfortunate girl has been rooming 9
for month past at the residence of F. w.
Durgin, 2165 Center street, Berkeley.
About $3.50 o clock Friday night, as Miss
Harriet Z. Durgin was passing the door
10 Miss hoiyweIps room she heard the
girl breathing heavily within. Enterin 2
the room Miss Durgin found the unfor-
tunate coed lying on the bed unconscious
and fully dressed. Doctors Eastland ana
Hoagland were hastily summoned.
Tney found the girl suffering from NOR
phine poisoning and for three hours they
worked to undo the effect of the fatal
dose which she mad taken. All their ef-
forts were in vain, and at ! 80 o'clock yes
terday morning she died without having
recovered consciousness. The body was
then removed to he Berkeley branch
morgue and w. c. Holyweu of Redlands,
the father of the girl, was notified by teIe-
graph of her death.
Three small packages were found among
the other effects IN the room-a bottle of
laudanum almost full, a small box con =
tanning sulphate of morphine, and an en-
velope containing morphine powders.
A telegram and letter were also found.
The dispatch is as follows:
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct 25-7:3O Pm.
Miss A. b. HolylOeIi. 2165 Center Street, Berke-
lep:- All is over. Do not come or now: Died
yesterday. r. J. BLYTHE.
The letter was inclosed in an envelope
heavily borde-ed with black and ad-
dressed to. Miss Anna Blythe Holy well,
care of Bishop Blythe, Berkeley" The
envelope was postmarked San Francisco,
October 25, A. NJ. The contents OF the
mysterious note are as follows:

lands, speaks very highly of the dead
girl, "She was the last person in the
world that l would expect to take her
own life, said Sessions yesterday.
The girl recently received visit from
her father, who came 10 San Francisco a
lew weeks ago as delegate to the Grand
Court from Court Redlands No. 1924

Few people in Berkeley were well ac-
quainted with the girl. Until a month
ago she boarded with Mrs. Berg at 1909
Berkeley way. The girl was troubled with
her feet and moved nearer the university
IN order TO avoid the long walk to and
from her classes. Accord ing to Mrs. Berg
Miss HolywelI had had BRAN fever twice
but she nevertheless studied assiduously.
She believes that tie unfortunate girl was

only 19 years-and bright in her studies
at the university, she seemed to those
who knew her an am mbitious student, with
prospects far from discouraging. She was
a regular student in the college OF letters
her studies comprising mainly English
literature and the classics. Among her
instructors at the university were Pro-
fessor Clapp, eDr. Richardson. Associate
Professor Lyle and Dr. Babcock.
The college students who come from
Redlands know little of the dead girl.
They say that she was studious while at
the Redlands High School, from which
she graduated last June, but that her
actions were at times peculiar. Often she
would come to school very shabbily clad
and wearing old worsted slippers, al
though her folks were comfortably well
off. Besides her father, who is a furniture
dealer in Redlands, and her mother, who
has been recently in poor health, she had
two Sisters, both older than herself. Her
people are very quiet and highly re-
spected in Redlands.-
