KILLS HIMSELF IN
THIRD ATTEMPT
MANIAC JUMPS IN FRONT OF
RAILROAD TRAIN
Insane Carpenter Is Crushed to
Death by an Engine After Try
ing Twice Previously to
Take His Own Life

Violently insane, j. d. Banes, a car
penter living at 1888 Santa Monica ave-
nue.. ended his life yesterday afternoon
beneath the wheels of heavy engine
on the beach line of the Southern Pa
clfc railroad.
Banes has been suffering for some
time, but it was not until recently that
he became violent or in any way dam
gerous. Within the last six weeks he
has made three attempts to end his
life the last, that of yesterday after.
noon, proving successful.
About six weeks ago Banes jumped
off a pier at Redondo beach and but
for the quick action of two men who
were on the wharf at the time and who
jumped into the ocean and pulled the
man out before he could drown, Banes
would have succeeded in doing away
with himself on that occasion.
Since the Redondo attempt at SUI
eide Banes' relatives have kept close
watch over him and most of the time
he has been guarded carefully. Yester-
day morning, however, he became more
violent than usual, and it is asserted
that his son was forced to tie his
father up in order to prevent Banes
from taking his own life.
In the afternoon, when he knew that
a train from the beach was due on
the Southern Pacific tracks, Banes ran
out of his house and down to where
the cars must pass. When the train
going at a good rate of speed, was less
than twenty yards from him Banes
jumped in front of the engine and was
killed instantly
The tragedy was witnessed by Olin
Quigley, one of Banes' neighbors, who,
when he saw what the man was about
to do tried in vain to save the maniac.
Banes was about fifty years old.
When violently insane he imagined
that he was about to revolutionize the
world, and when he found that his at
tempts to do that were unavailing he
decided to kill himself.

POKER CASE AGAIN DELAYED
John G. HoIborow Too III to Appear
for Trial

Echoes of the Santa Monica-Ocean
Park poker scandal were heard in the
superior court yesterday when Judge
Smith called up for trial the criminal
action against John Ct. Holborow, who
is charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses.
Attorney LIE Compile Davis, chief
counsel for Holborow, asked for a
continuance of the case on the ground
of his clients physical inability to be
present.
The attorney presented to the court
a physicians certificate bearing out
his statements in this connection, and
on the showing made Judge Smith re-
set the case to be heard on April "a

Will Be Profitable

For some time the chamber of COM
merce has been looking into the ques-
ton of interesting some one of the
railroads in the southern Nevada prop
ositon. Our committee appointed for
that purpose made many inquiries, and
as a result of its findings it was
very apparent that the project will be
one of the most profitable of it's kind
ever undertaken in the west"
AS stated in The Herald, the Salt
Lake is considering a plan to build
from Las Vegas to Bullfrog, distance
of a little over 100 miles. According
to ]. Ross Clark, vice-president of the
company, a good line should be put IN
for about $4,000 a mile This will
make the cost of the road very cheap,
when it is considered that the freight
will amount to a million or more tons
a year, if figures furnished through
well-informed sources be correct.

for final disposition the murderer's at
torney arose and asked for a continu-

evidence.
The attorney told the court That evil

material to the convicted man in his
fight for new trial and he asked time
to investigate its authenticity.
On the strength of the representa-

There are four fine lodges in this

when a mem Der of New Hope

get up a team which would far
surpass them. This brought on
a few remarks from a Caledonia
mem Der and from this little con
versation, perhaps, a contest will
be witnessed in this city before

degree teams from these lodges.
A prize has been suggested for
the best team and the occasion

short account of the happenings

Crops are looking very we'll,
although we have had a great
deal of rain, which has damaged
them to some extent. The grass
is growing very rapidly, but our
hustling farmers are getting rid
of it as fast as conditions will
permit, and if we can only have
a few weeks of clear weather
everything will be all right. Most
of our farmers whose land is hill
ly and rolling have finished
planting, but those whose lands
are low and marshy are still be-
hind in this respect.
