SUICIDED
AT SPARKS.
While Temporarily Insane Mrs.
F. C. Younghans Ends
Her Sufferings.

During the temporary absence Of
her nurse, Mrs. Irene Younghans. wife
Of engineer Fred Younghans. shot and
killed herself at her home in Sparks
about noon yesterday. She had been
suffering from typhoid fever for about
two weeks. and. while in a temporary
state of insanity, due to the effects Of
the disease. fired the fatal shot. Death
resulted instantly, and when friends
rushed into the room. after hearing the
pistol report. they found the lifeless
body lying across the bed.
Mrs. Younghans had been in a
critical condition for some time, and
two nurses were in attendance. one
taking charge by day and the other by
night. Yesterday the patient showed
signs Of improvement and seemed more
like her natural self. She asked that
some soup be given her. and In ac-
cordance with her wishes. the nurse
went down 10 the kitchen to prepare 1t.
When the nurse left. II is supposed
that she got up out Of bed and, going
over to trunk on the other side Of
the room, took out an old revolver.
Then. staggering back to her bed,
she placed the muzzle to her temple
and fired.
Mrs. Younghans was a native Of
Burlington. Vermont, and aged 80
years. She was the daughter Of Ben
Church. now dead. who is remembered
as one Of the first engineers of the
Southern Pacific road. While quite
young. her parents moved to Nevada,
and since that time most of her life
was spent in Wadsworth.
About two months ago the family
cottage was loaded on a train and
brought here. a lot being saved for 1t
on the Reserve. Things were just
getting in smooth running order when
the dread disease made Its appearance.
and the wife and mother was taken
sick. Fearing her illness might prove
fatal. her husband secured a lay-off
and was constantly at his wifs's bed
side. Then came the climax when, in
aburst Of frenzy. ihe fatal shot was
fired. =
Mrs. Younghans was a woman Of
cheerful disposition and we'll liked by
all who knew her. She had large
circle Of friends. all of whom believe
that, If she had been In her right mind.
she would never have resorted to such
violence.
She leaves. besides a husband.
three children Dottie. aged 9; Yer
non. aged years /; an infant son. only
few weeks old. and an aged mother,
Mrs. B. F. Church.
The arrangements for the funeral
have not yet been made public, but II
will probably take place in Sparks
tomorrow.
