her great success.
Il. r. Stevens, superintendent of Everett
Electric Railway company, has resigned
his position, to take effect the 10th of this
month. He will leave on that date for
Auburn, N. Y, where he has accepted a
position as superintendent of the Auburn

Stevens has been a resident of Everett for
the past four and one-half years while con-
nected with the local street railway COM
pany. He superintended its construction
and made it what it is today-One of the
best systems in city of this size in the en-

The many eastern friends of Mrs. Stevens,

Twice From High Building
and Escapes Without Hurts
DAZED BUT UNINJURED
Inebriate Wanders About
the Streets After Attempts
at Suicide Prove Futile
DAZED BUT UNINJURED
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA, Jan. 6.-Following a pro-
tracted spree James Carruthers this
morning decided to commit suicide.
Mounting to the top of four-story
building occupied by the California
laundry. Carruthers removed his coat
and hat and stepped off. He expected
to land on the pavement, four stories
below, with bones broken and body
shattered. but he had leaped from the
wrong side of the building. He landed
on the roof of saloon only one story
below.
This preliminary dash Jared him
considerably, but he was still deter
mined to throw himself to destruction.
and again he leaped from the roof.
This time he landed astride of two cleo
trio light wires, which he caught with
arms and legs, thus preventing himself
from falling thirty feet below to the
cement sidewalk.
Fear of electric currents caused Car
ruthers to scramble upon a projecting
cornice, from which he leaped to the
porch Of a saloon and from there to the
ground. After reaching terra f1rma
without hat. coat or vest, Carruthers
started wandering about the streets ap-
parently .dazed, but otherwise unin-
jured by his several leaps toward
death.
