WoRsHlpPERs HEAR
SUICIDES PISTOL,
Church Sexton Shoots Himself After
Having Been Rebuked for
Intemperance.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, April 1S.-Shame
over being rebuked by his pastor fol
intemperance caused Captain James
Alder, sexton of the st. James Epis
copal Church, of this city, to com
NIT suicide in the church building
while the Rev. Edmund Duckworth
was preaching his morning sermon
last Sunday.
The report Of a pistol shot fired In
the lower room of the church, just
off the vestlbule, startled the congre.
cation as the minister was conclud.
ing his discourse.
The pastor concluded his sermon
as briefly as possible, and after the
closing hymn, quietly informed the
congregation of the tragedy that had
occurred in the church, and asked
everyone to bow while he offered q
prayer for forgiveness for the unfor
tunate man then lying dead in the
lower room.
Captain Alder was seventy years
old, and without family. He was, &C
cording to the Rev. Duckworth, an
educated and refined man, formerly
midshipman in the British navy, af
forwards a captain and part owner
of a vessel in the merchant marine.
Still later he was a lecturer and
actor. Intemperance brought him te
the lowly station he occupied at the
time Of his death. Mr.. Duckwortf
was his only close friend in the city
He had no family or relatives living
in this country and refused always
to give tie names Of his kinsman in
England.

SOLDIERS PAY TOO SMALL,
Says General Frederick Funston In his
Annual Report

Washington, Sept. IS. - General
Frederick Funston, commanding the
department Of California, In his an
nual report, quotes from his Judge adj
vocate regarding assertions from the
army. The latter ascribes assertions
to the poor pay received by enlisted
men, compared to what men receive
In civil occupations. General Fun
ston says the buildings at the Preside,
San Francisco, are not credit to the
United States, and should be replaced.
There is no further reason for main
tanning the post at Fort Mcdowell, he
says. 1t should be abandoned or new
buildings erected.
Washington.--In his annual report
Brigadier General Frederick D. Grant,
commanding the army of the east,
makes the novel suggestion that the
families Of some of the officers and
enlisted men in the army transferred
to the Philippines be allowed to live
in the barracks and quarters in lin
tied number Of abandoned forts while
the husbands are absent from the
country. He suggests Fort Trumbull,
Conn, as an excellent place for such
use.
Speaking Of the many trials by
court martial, General Grant says that
fully rs per cent Of these trials were
due to the use Of bad liquor in dens OF
vice near military posts. Says the
general:
ut is distressing that the prosperity
of the vile resorts is due to the &C
tiyity Of good and worthy, though mis-
guided citizens, who have succeeded
in abolishing the canteen Of the
army"
