Suicide of Mrs. Cole.

The Harrison Times of last
 Saturd ay gives the following ac-
 count of the suicide of Mrs. Cole
 of that place, brief mention of
 which was made in last week g
 TRIBUNE:
 On Sunday evening last, short-
 ly after6 o'clock, ak Harrison
 was shocked by the news that
 Mrs. Cole, wife of real estate
 broker H. E. Cole, had commit-
 ted suicide by shooting herself
 through the heart.
 It seems that during the after
 noon she had been out riding
 with her husband, and upon her return had gone into the house
 while he drove to town with tfBe
 buggy. Upon MT. Coles return an hour later he found her on the bed dead, with target rifle lay ing in front of and with the muz- gle toward her. He summoned the doctors and neighbors at oncee Mayor Jas. A. Finn, who was the first to arrive, found Mrs. Cole already cold in death and the actions of the frantic hus- band so wild that it was necessary to restrain him in order to pre- vent him from following his wife's example.
 Coroner John c. Ross was sum- moned at once but did not arrive until late, and 1t was after mid- ] night when the jury had been empannelled, It was then de- ] cided after 8 careful examination ! of the body, the room and the ] whole situation, that an adjourn l ment be taken until 9 o'clock Monday morning. In the mean time an autopsy, conducted by l the attending physicians dis closed the fact that the fatal bull l let entered the left breast, passed l through the lower point ot the heart, and came out on the right l side toward the back ranging up- ward about an inch, showing that I the breech of the gun had been l slightly lower than the muzzle. From the powder burn surround ing the wound it was evident that l the gun had been pressed against the breast when 1t was fired, and 1 an examination of the weapon convinced the jury that, on ac- count of the shortness of the barrel, the trigger was easily reached by the suicide.
 After spending most of the day Monday examining witnesses the Coroner's Jury rendered it's ver- dict as follows: "That the said Maud Cole came to her death by 8 gun shot wound made by a 22 calibre rifle in her own hands, at about 6:15 o'clock, p. m., on Sun day, Nov. 10, 1901, at her home at Harrison" Signed by 13 jurors, 5 jurors refusing to sign.
 Mir. Cole left Monday evening with the cqrpse for Bushnell, Ill.,, the home Of his father, where the funeral occurred Tuesday after noon. He was accompanied by Messrs. J. A. Finn and Alex Freeling and returned with them Thursday evening.
 During the year or more in which Mr. and Mrs. Cole have been residents of Harrison they have stood high with our people; ! all who became acquainted with Mrs. Cole found her to be 8 lady of refinement and most lovable disposition. Up to the period of dissipation commenced by Cole a month ago, their married life seemed happy in every respect. Dependency due to this cause evidently led to the sad end. Another tragedy has been added to the long list for which strong 1 drink is responsible.

The practice Of ''hazlng" by
the students of West Point has
been the subject of Investigation
by a special committee of Con-
gress recently, and has revealed
some shameful treatment on the
part of Students. Hazing can at
best have no good influence, and
only gives license for the exer-
else of brutal enjoyment on the
part of reckless young men. If
the authorities in charge of West
Point cannot stop hazing then
the school had better be abolish
ed and get out of the business.
A military school is supposed to
exist for the training of gentle
man soldiers, and not for the
purpose ofmanufacturing toughs
and brutes.
