MADE DEATH SURE

Fooled in Hanging, Shoots

ROPE BROKE IN FIRST ATTEMPT
Bullet Fired Into Ear Proves I'm.
mediateIy Fatal-IDquest
Held.

Despondcnt over i'll health, Albert
p. Schultze, 4OS Western avenue, Dav-
export, ended his life yesterday af-
ternoon about o'clock in his room,
by shooting himself in the right ear,
the bullet directly penetrating the
brain. He first attempted hanging,
but failing in this through the break
ing of the rope, resorted to the use
of a revolver. He was 60 years old,
and leaves behind him sorTOwing
wife and six children. He was a car
penter by trade, but had not been
working for some time.
Where he obtained the revolver with
which to complete his self-destruc-
ton is not known. He did not have
one of his own, and the one he had
does not belong to anyone in the
house. 1t was a 3S-caliber, and but
one chamber was emptied.
No one heard the shot which ended
his life, but two women, who were in
the kitchen at the time, heard him
fall, and called to his wife to ascer-
tain the cause of the noise. She went
upstairs to investigate. and was pros
trated by the sight that met her eyes.
EOIlC SIlIlchCNl IOI assistance. ana All
in the house at the time hurried to
the room.
Dead When Found.
Fred A. Bostedt was the first to
reach the scene. He found the old
man lying upon the floor, and on feel
| ing of his heart discovered that he
was dead. Blood was streaming from
the right ear. The revolver was lying
on the floor.
At the inquest it developed that Mr..
Schultze, although not confined to his
| bed; had been i'll for Quite while,
and it is thought that his mind had
become slightly deranged by his i'll
ness.
The jury brought in verdict of
death caused by shooting.
The family is PROSTATE over the
| loss of husband and father. Mr..
| Schultze IS years old and the faith
er of six children. The eldest is in
| Tacoma, Wash. There are three
daughters, who live at home. Albert,
10 years of age, works as a weaver
for the Economy Rug company. and
Otto, who is Is. at Kuehl's grocery.
Mrs. Schultze keeps a boarding house.
