Bryant Terrell Shot Himself in the
Breast and Died.
He Left a Note Saying He Was
Weary Of Life, Which Held No
Enjoyment For Him.
HIS ACTION NOT UNDERSTOOD

Mr.. Bryant Terrell, single, age 81,
shot himself through the heart with a
pistol Tuesday afternoon late at his
mothers farm about three miles
northwest of Vaudeville.
Terrell was an Industrious young
man and supported his mother. He
was sober and had the good will and
respect Of the entire community and
his suicide fell like bombshell in the
midst of his many friends. He left o
note saying that he had grown tired
Of living as he was cared for by nc
one and that life had gotten to such a
point where it held nothing for him.
In the note he expressed a wish that
his mother, Mrs. Joe Terrell, wild
ow, get all his possessions.
News of the suicide did not reach
the city until last night and the
young man had many friends end a
few relatives who will be- surprised
and will receive the news with much
regret The young mans friends
cannot understand his actions, as he
wanted for nothing.
The morning the young man killed
himself he waited until the others
had gone to the helds to work, and
taking his pistol went to a thicket
and SHOT himself so the body would
fall across q path through which the
others would have to pass on their
way home.
The body was not found until that
afternoon late when the farm hands
returned and suddenly stumbled
across it.

Pretty Weather for the Wind-up of
the Tournament,
A Number Had Not Missed a Bird
Up to Press Time-Good
Scores.
WINNERS OF CUPS YESTERDAY
THE LAST DAY.


in their work today and the weather
could not have been better for the
shoot. The first event was begun
early and rushed through, the last
shooter finishing at o O'Clock.
This was a five bird event, and 10
out of 43 entries broke the five
straight, Little interest was taken in
this event, as the big event, the most
important one Of the tournament, fol-
lowed. About $3.50 the entrees an
nounoed ready for the big event, and
shortly afterwards the work began.
The shooting is done alternately be-
tween the marksmen, and each man
moves from trap TO trap, shooting not
more than once at one standing at any
one trap. At noon the marksmen were
shooting on their eighth bird and al
ready 2S had dropped from one to
three birds, leaving about that many
shooting straights. Among those who
are yet to lose their first bird are
Messrs. Heikes, Hillman, Watson,
Bronaugh, Hansbro and Money. There
were several others doing excellent
shooting, but those Just mentioned are
in the front rank.
In live bird shooting there is some
little time lost and great deal more
than in trap shooting when the ma
chine throws out the bird at the will
of the shooter. Here the live bird
will sometimes stand for several min
utes by the trap before flying, which
delays the shoot very much. Not
withstanding the fact that there are
many drawbacks as to speedily push
ing the event, the shooting has pro-
gressed nicely and by 8 O'Clock II is
thought the event will have been fin
ished.
There is large crowd present, and
there are many ladies out. This after
noon there will be many more to see
the final shots of the marksmen.
The spectators are taking great
deal of interest in the shooting Of
Bronsugh and Hansbro, the latter
who made an excellent score in Kan
sas City, and from present indics-
tions they stand as good chance of
taking the big plze as the visiting
marksmen.
The official hsndicappers, appointed
yesterday afternoon, were J. NJ. Lang
W. d. Thompson, W. W. Watson, j.
H. Mackie and Haskell Hughes.
The entries for the big live bird
event were; Harte Bronaugh, Moses

Popular Speaker Of the Council to
Give up His Position Soon.
May Resign at the Next Meeting
Bond Vote to BE Ordered
Tonight.
PROSPECTS FOR TOMORROW

Hon. Charles Reed, speaker of the
council, will probably at the ne1 j
meeting, or shortly thereafter, resign
his position as q councilman effective
at once. Mr. Reed was under the I'M
preston that his successor would he
elected at the coming election, but
today learned this will not be the
case. When Mr. Reed resigns, his sue.
cessor will be appointed by Mayor
Yeiser until January 1, 1904, for over
a year.
Mr.. Reed does not assign any reason
for wanting TO give up the place, ex-
oept that his business will prevent his
giving it the time he would like to
give it. Mr.. Reed is one Of Padu-
cabs best known and most progressive
public men, having been mayor sew
earl times, and a man who always
stands for progress at all times. His
loss In the council should he carry out
his intention Of resigning, would be
keenly felt. There are few, II any,
men who can take his place.
There is also talk Of other council.
men resigning, but it is not known
whether they seriously contemplate IL
OF not.
Il is believed, from what is heard
from the members of the council to-
day, that the committee tonight will
promptly order an ordinance providing
for a vote of the people ON an issuance
OF bonds for improvements. All the
committeeman seem 10 DO in favor OF
allowing the people to vote on it,
whether they are themselves In favor
of bonds or not Chairman Reed stat
cd today that he had no doubt but that
the committee would recommend the
election, and that the council would
pass the ordinance providing for it.
IL is not known exactly what the
meeting Of the Democratic county
committee tomorrow afternoon is for,
but there is prospect Of a lively
time. There is something OF dis
agreement as to the place. State Cen
trail Committeeman whittemore want
ed 1t called for the city hall, but Mr..
O. W. Morrison, one Of the claimants
to the craftsmanship. has issued his
call for the court house. Il is sug-
gested that there will be just as good
police protection at one place as the
other. Perhaps those who desire will
go to one place and others the
other.
One report is that Committeeman
whittemore will suggest that, in
asmuoh as there have been protest
against action in the past because of
the alleged lack of quorum, and of
persons alleged not tobe lawful men,
bers voting in the meetings, an entire
ly new chairman be chosen for the
committee.
1t is said that the Morrison crowd
will oppose this, and seek to have the
action of a part of the committee sew
ersl days ago ratified.
The other crowd will not submit to
the latter, claiming that there was
not a quorum present. and If there is
sufficient contention shown, the meet
ing ought to be q rather warm one. II
may be there will be two separate
meetings.
