REFUSES TO GIVE INFORMATION
ABOUT HIMSELF.
Had Addressed Envelopes to Four
Women in Los Angeles,
but He Wrote No
Letters.

A man giving his name as Frank
Behne attempted to commit suicide al the
Mariposa House, 1859 Mission street, early
this morning.
At 1890 the landlady of the house de-
tected a strong odor of gas, and upon
making an investigation found the door
of Behne's room locked, the transom fas-
tened down and the keyhole stopped up.
Breaking into the room they found Behne
on the bed unconscious and the gas escap-
ing from all the jets.
At the Receiving Hospital he recovered
sufficiently to speak. but refused to tell
why he tried to take his life. He stated
that he had a good reason for wishing to
die. but would not give that reason.
Before turning on the gas the would be
suicide had addressed four envelopes as
follows:
Mrs A w Barrett. 1907 Burlington

Mrs. J, Mulberry, lis Requena street
Los Angeles
Mrs. Mary Williams, 1881 East Twenty
first street. Los Angeles.
Mrs. Capen Ellis, 539 Wolfskill avenue
Los Angeles.
No letters were found. and it is sup
posed that Behne changed his mind
about writing them after having first
prepared the envelopes. From the deter
mined manner in which he keeps his
urgent reasons for his desire to destroy
himself. Behne appears to be fairly in
telligent. is well dressed and a man OF
middle age. He insists that he desires to
die, but will not give any information
about himself. He will recover.

bowling northwest gale, but were a
success both in point Of number of

star features in a local way were an
exhibition half mile by Otto Zeigler
and an exhibition mile by Mcfarland.
Neither lowered the worlds record. al
though Mcfarland was announced to
go for the worlds mile exhibition time.
While he did not win the coveted honor
he made a magnificent run, and beat
the Internal machine, with the
bowling wind against him, carrying
clouds of dust, and with a pace which
was far and away too slow. He made
the mile in 1:35.
This was the last event on the pro-
gramme, and two or three laps had to
be made on the third of-a-mile track
before the internal machine. ridden
by Fournier and Stevens, could get up
steam When the word was given they
were off at a magnificent burst of
speed 1t was not believed Mcfarland
could hang on to the machine, but he
did. In the final lap the machine could
not respond to McFarland's calls Of

around it and beat it out. McFarland's
time at the laps was: 80 1-5, 1902, and
for the mile 1:35.
Zeigler in his half mile exhibition
was not able TO drive the machine, and
was about two yards behind at the fin
ish. Time, 40 3-5. 1t was a beautiful
race, and Zeigler did we'll. He had
had but three days training, and this
marks his return to the track. He ex-
poets to go East from here.
In the ten-mile lap race ten started,
but only six finished. The pace was
hot, and Fredericks, Nawn and Charles
