only farming that pays in 1904. The
farmer who disregards scientific re-

With these words ringing in his ears,
newspaper man, held pistol to his
breast early yesterday morning and
pressed the trigger. In the gray light
of dawn, in a lonely part of Golden
Gate Park, a life full of industry and
ambition terminated voluntarily. Proud,
sensitive, of a disposition that chafed
under sense of wrong, the young man
decided to let death end all.
Before he killed himself Aspden

in the solitude of his own mind, and
when he entered the fiower-scented
park he had already fully made his
decision. He had placed all his hopes
on a woman's love. and She dazzled by
the calcium light of the stage. had

DECISION LEADS TO DEATH.
Joan Hadenfeldts decision took all
the joy from George Aspden's life. He
had done much for her. In fact, it was
his energy and his intelligence that
enabled her to enter her chosen pro-
fession. He arranged a play for her
and neglected his own work to make
it success. The slight theatrical fame
she earned at the Orpheum only sharp
ened her appetite for more. She went
East and found it. Then she decided
that she could and would climb to the
heights-alone. Her engagement to
marry George Aspden hindered her
ascent, she said. And he had staked
his life on the decision.
She told him she had decided to give
her whole life to her work. He heard
her as bravely as Kipling's Dick Held
lar. Not a reproach did he utter. Man
through and through, he accepted his
