in i'll health and that it was necessary for
her to have rest from her work. Under
the rules a teacher who is granted a leave
for six months or less is entitled to return
to her class. Directors Kincaid and Dem
man expressed themselves as opposed to
granting the leave unless Miss Sutherland
would waive her right to return to her

leave granted, but Miss Sutherland must
take her chances at getting an assign

Weather Promises Well for To-Day.

The visiting Episcopalians in this city
saw about the greater part of the rain Of
yesterday. There were slight dashes as
far north as Red Bluff, in the interior, but
there was none at Eureka and northward
on the coast. Nor was there any at
Fresno. Light showers fell in this city,
by points. Mr.. McAdie says that the
meteorological conditions existing yester-
day were exceptional for this time of the
year. Ordinarily, with low east
of the Rocky Mountains and the barom-
eter making the records that the Weather
Bureau had to credit to it officially, there
would have been a southeast storm ex-
tending to Los Angeles and San Diego
but there was no precipitation at either
of those points. Yesterday afternoon the
flags of the city f1oated toward the east
signifying the coming of the west wind
and presaging clear weather for to-day
The barometer rose and was high. Mr.
McAdie looks for good weather to-day.

''WeH, Secretary Hay is getting tired OF

man of the strictest honor. He is very
sensitive. however, and it hurts him after
he has worked hard to be misrepresented
cartooned and lampooned. He is inde-
pendently rich. He can do as he wishes,
go wherever he desires. He has a very
few intimate friends and would rather en-
joy life surrounded by these friends and
his books than to attend to the very tire
some and endless routine of the office of

cion of numbering her husband, was re-
leased from custody yesterday by order of

learned of the verdict of suicide rendered
by the Coroner's jury.
Mrs. Bailey was the first witness at the
inquest. She gave her age as % years and
that of her husband as 50. On the day of
the shooting, September %, her husband
had been drinking, she said, and was very
abusive. insulting her and throwing
glass of whisky into her face. She sent
for her sister, Mrs. Gardner, whereupon
Bailey became so boisterous and quarrel
some that Mrs. Gardner left. After she
had gone Bailey took a pistol from bu-
reau drawer and threatened to kill his
wife and himself. He caught hold of her
and she broke away. Then he fired two
shots and sank bleeding into a chair. She
called in Eer sister, and asked the dying
man to forgive her after he had asked for
forgiveness from her.
Mrs. Carrie Gardner of 11S15 Clipper
street testified that she found husband
and wife quarreling. Bailey was jealous
of some man whom he did not name. Mrs.
Bailey informed her that Bailey had made
threats to kill, and the witness left the
house. She had gone about a half-block
when Mrs. Bailey called her back and told
told the witness that Bailey had tried to
kill her and had then shot himself.
DR.. Allen, resident physician of st.
Luxe S Hospital Who was called in i'm
mediately after the shooting, testified
that Mrs. Bailey gave him to understand
that she had shot her husband, but he
could not remember her exact words. She
said to her sister. Mrs. Gardner: ''Give
me the pistol. wouldn't you rather see
me dead than in prison?'
DR.. L. D. Bacigalupi autopsy surgeon
to the Coroner, testified that the bullet
entered Bailey'5 left breast above the left
nipple and four inches to the left of the
breastbone Then it ranged downward,
inward and backward toward the spine.
The wound was powder burned, as though
the weapon had been fired at close range.
On the assumption that the ball was de-
fected by the rib it was possible, said the
witness, for Bailey to have fired the shot
himself.
