Tired of Life.

Disappointed in love, and feeling that
lfe's happiness and hope was gone for
him, Harley f., the 21-year-old son OF
Lewis Gregg, a well known farmer living
near Pullman, committed suicide last
Sunday at the home OF Link Foreman.
The deed was committed with a %
calibre squirrel rifle, the bullet from
which penetrated the unhappy young
mans heart, causing almost instan-
taneous death.
The deceased had been for some time
snamored Of young lady neighbor, but
disappointed in his suit, he decided to
end his life Sunday forenoon while at
the home OF the young lady. Gregg at
tempted suicide, but the pistol snapped
on the cartridges without exploding
them. He then went to the Foreman
ranch, where he had been working, and
after writing a letter to the girl for the
love of whom he was dying, fired the
fatal shot. When found in his bed room
he was seated in a chair, the rifle having
fallen from his hand, and he was breath
ing his last. The recently written letter
was lying unseaed on a table.
The coroner visited the scene of the
tragedy, but decided that it was unnec-
essary to hold an inquest.
The funeral services were held Tues
day, from the Christian church in this
city, Rev. r.. c. Sargent speaking words
of comfort to the bereaved parents and
sorrowing relatives and friends.
Harley was few months more than
p years of age, and leaves father and
mother and three sisters to mourn his
rash but narrowing act.

The Merchant of Venice.

The current season with its remarka-
bic depression in theatrical affairs has
demonstrated thoroughly the fact that
age cannot wither nor custom stale the
infinite variety OF Shakespeare drama.
1t is impossible to conceive conditions
under which any school of drama would
have been likely to flourish, but, unfor-
tunate as the past winter proved for en-
tertainments which depended on pass
ing vogue" for their patronage, it has
been one of prosperity and encourage
ment for the Shakespearian drama. Mr..
Charles B. Hanford's tour, which will
include nearly all the large cities of the
United States before he closes his spring
season on the Pacific slope, has demon
strated the permanency of Shakespeare.
His reyivals OF Richard III" Tam
ing OF the Shrew," and the Merchant
OF Venice" have been made on a scale
commensurate with his own reputation
as a lavish and discriminating producer.
His company includes number of the
most experienced Shakespearian players
IN the profession, foremost among the
supporting caste being Miss Marie Drof-
nan, who, as Lady Ann, Catherine, and
Portia, enjoys extraordinary opportuni-
ties which she improves in manner
which has commanded enthusiastic crit.
zeal approval. Mr.. Hanford is now de-
voting himself especially to the Mer.
chant OF Venice" which will be pro
dueed at the Auditorium, Friday, Apri

Jeffries today, Il would have given
the verdict to Munroe. True, he did
not score a knockout, but he clearly
demonstrated to the satisfaction Of all
those present at the ringside that he
was the sailors superior, at least on
Saturday night.

IT must confess that Munroe's clever
showing against such strong, burly
fellow as Sharkey was somewhat Of
surprise to me. Of course, it Is only
natural for me to believe that can
defeat Munroe. l have never entered
the ring with any man whom thought

to continue the contest which then
went the limit to. draw.
The contest between Seiger and
Rafael was declared draw at the end
of the tenth round. Rafael put up
good fight for short -ender and the
crowd became very demonstrative at
the decision, evidently thinking that
Rafael should have received the YER
diet. Rafael throughout landed the
most telling blows, but Seiger on the
latter was clearly overweight.
Corbett was the first to emerge
from his dressing room. Sullivan
entered the ring moment or two
later.
Round One.
After some sparring Sullivan led twice
with left, falling short. Corbett then
swung ineffectively with right for the jaw
and tried a left cross which failed to
connect. Corbett missed a left and right
swing for the face and Sullivan neatly
blocked a similar attempt. Sullivan
landed lightly with left on ear and they
closed in. Both displayed great clever
mess and Sullivan again blocked left and
right swings for the head. Finally Cor
bett got his right to the body lightly and
a left jab to the face, Sullivan tried a
left swing, missed and slipped to the
floor. Upon rising Cofbett chopped right
