 Prof William B. Bailey of Yale has brought out some interesting facts bas- ed on 2s,344 cases of suicide, covering the period iron. 1897 to 1901. Using the 10000 unit, he finds that 7,7S1 males and 2,2ls females found life intolerable' and, despairing of mending ended 1t.

Monday Is the favorite day for the rash deed while few take the step on Saturday. Professor Bailey's explanation Is as fol- lows: For those who have endured throughout the week there Is payday at hand, followed by a day of rest.
 Among the males Monday Is pre-emi- nently a day for suicide. Females pre- fer Sunday to Monday. Religious e1

MURDERED BY COMPANION
The Fate of a Former Apache County
 School Teacher.

St Johns, Arizona, June 19.-(Spe- cial Correspondence of The Republi- can. )-Word from Ramah, small town just across the New Mexico line tells of the dastardIy and cruel mur- der of Walter Lyons, a school teacher who taught the district school at Con- cho last winter. Lyons came here last fall from the north and after his school was out started north again. and just before he left he found a man who was going the same way. and they trav' eled together and seemed to have be- come very friendly. The last seen of them was at Ramah and they passed through there on Sunday. June 4. Ten days later Lyons body was found bad " decayed. at their camping place, while his companion was gone with all the outfit. Lyons had between one and two hundred dollars in money on his person when he left here, and rob bery. seems to have been the motive of his slayer.
 The murdered man was an inoffen- 'sive fellow. very friendly and kind to everybody he came in contact with. He had been wandering for some years. He was raised in Michigan where his mother is still living. There is little hope of watching the perpetra- tor as he has so much the start of the officers.

Railroad Men Discuss Subject of Fur
 ther Rate Concessions.

The rates from this section to the Portland exposition are seemingly quite satisfactory in respect of expense but there is some disappointment in the fact that the time limit is so brief To take advantage Of the cheap rate one has to make too hurried a trip to see many of the desirable things on such an excursion. It appears from the foI> lowing in the Portland Oregonian that a movement is on foot to arrange some further concessions to tourists:
 ''T. B. Wilcox, representing the Port land Commercial club. met yesterday afternoon with A l.. Craig of the O. K. C N, w F.. Conan of the Southern Northern Pacific. to discuss the ques- tion of half-fare rates from Portland to points through the state during the Lewis and Clark exposition for the ben- eft of visitors who desire to inspect Oregon ef
 Tt has been contended by the com mercial interests that the railroad re- striction against visitors from Califor- mia. Arizona, Utah, Nevada and Mon- taua would greatly detract from the benefits expected to be derived by Ore son towns through this restriction. MT. Wilcox contended that the half fare rate should apply to all holders of ex- cursion tickets purchased east of Hunt ington and south of Ashland. The po- sition of the railroad men is that there would be no advantage in moving people already residents in Pacific coast and Rocky mountain states and that the prime purpose of the half rate in oregon was to permit people from the middle west and the east to look over the state with a view of locating The matter was discussed fully and tine railroad officials took it under advise ment"
