Pauls Valley. |. T., April =
In the returns of the Pauls Valley
election, published in the ARD
MoREITE last Thursday, it was
stated that the democrats elected
their ticket, but the name of the
republican candidate for mayor
was given as the mayor elect. This
was an error. Jas. A. Young,
democrat, is mayor elect of Pauls

A man named z. E. Leland,
stranger in this city, committed
suicide in a cell of the city Jail yes
terday afternoon at o'clock.
The body was discovered by a
couple of negro boys who were
working around the hold-over.
An improvised rope, made OF
pair of suspenders and a cheap
handkerchief. were used by the man
who had carefully tied it about his
neck then threw it over an iron
bar in his cell and fastened it Sc
curely. The cramped condition in
which the body was found indieat-
ed that the man had little room in
which to commit the deed, for his
legs were drawn up, showing that
it had been difficult for him to clear
the cell floor.
Leland was arrested Friday night
by Officer Howard on a charge of
drunkenness, but yesterday it de-
veloped there were much more seri-
Gus charges pending against him.
He had forged two checks, one on
J. Henninger for so and one on
the Fort Worth National bank. and
it is believed by the officers that
Leland bIooded over these forg-
cries, became despondent and con-
Guided to end his troubles by tax
ing his own life. = Fort Worth
Register.
Ed Leland was we'll known to
many people in ArdmOre, he hav-
ing at one time worked as clerk.
He joined a Texas regiment dur
ing the Spanish war and after his
discharge went to Marietta and
took a position in the store of S.
Westheimer & Co., which he held
until recently. From Marietta ht
came to Ardmore aud stayed few
days. going then to Fort Wortl
with the result above stated.
