more costly one that has been bought
and has occasioned little or no thought.

more effective than bright in the silk.
Flowered silk is used for this quaint

behind his right ear and came out the op-

fiicting a frightful wound
Schonknect at the time of his death had
been in his country's service for twenty
nine years. during which long lapse of time
he had served in various regiments and
various campaigns. The circumstances
that prompted him to take his own life
were not unusual. He had acquired a

For several days previous to his death
he had given out the impression by word

One day he threatened to take the life of
one of his comrades, and the top" ser

account. However, on the day of his death

imagined that Schonknect had procured
bottle of beno, which he had put inside his
shirt to conceal from the sight of the Off
Ger OF the day.
Several soldiers were lying about the
barracks when Schonknect entered and
went straight to his bunk. He reached in
side his shirt and pulled forth the re-
vover.

IN PUBLIC SPACE.
Decision as to Location of Western
Union Poles.


Mr.. Chas W. Darr as attorney for Mr..
Harry j. DAILY, several days ago notified
the western Union Telegraph Company to
remove within thirty days from Mr.. DAILY g
premises. opposite the public school on
Erightwood avenue, just north Of Bright
wood, four of the company's poles and
wires. placed there without Mr.. Days con-
sent Upon the company's failure to do as
notified. it was informed by Mr.. Darr that
his client would take such action as he
might be advised to do in the premises.
The company referred Mr.. Darr's communi-
cation to the District Commissioners, with
the statement that the poles in question
were recently moved by their direction to
their present location. asking to be advised
whether they are private property. as
claimed by Mr.. DAILY.
An investigation by the engineer depart
ment of the District has revealed the fact
that In its opinion the poles are located IN
public space. 1t Is a certainty, remarks
Mr. c. B. Hunt, the computing engineer.
..,hat the encroachment, if the same exists,
is but trifling, and can constitute no fair
cause for complaint. The contention as to
these poles being without public space
would be entirely predcated on the as
sumption that Brightwood avenue Is but
sixty-six feet wide. AS the District main-
tains and will maintain, that 1t Is ninety
feet wide, this question OF precision would
be entirely eliminated 1t occurs to me that
the Western Union Telegraph Company is
entitled to be advised that these poles are
located where they are by the authority OF
the District on supposed public space, and
that the matter be then taken up by the
District with Mr.. DAILY or his attorney"
If his suggestion be adopted, Mr.. Hunt
believes the matter will be settled to the en-
tire satisfaction of all concerned, and 1t Is
probable that the Commissioners will so adj
