IHE BURGER INQUEST
 ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING
Funeral Win Be Held at O'clock Sunday Afternoon-Fire Depart nents and Lodges Will Attend.


 The inquest to determine the facts attending the tragic death of John H. ] Burger at his home Thursday evening. was concluded yesterday afternoon in the office of Coroner Burnett But one witness was examined in addition to ! those who testified the night before. and that was H. L. Worden, an em- ploye of the Pacific Gas Electric com pany. MT. Worden verified the story of Mrs. Burger that her husband had borrowed the revolver that caused his death from Mir. Worden before his va cation trip which was in the east in stead of the west as incorrectly stated yesterday. He had gone east to attend the national convention of engineers. and had said that he wanted to carry the weapon in his suit case while trav- cling. Mir Worden said also that he had spoken to MT. Burger once about the revolver since his return, not that he wanted it but to caution him that he should not leave it where the chil- dren could get hold of it. To that he rreplied that he had it in a safe place and thereafter MT WOrden thought no more about it. This fact strengthens the theory that MT. Burgers purpose in going to the closet was to lay the weapon out where he would not forget to return it in the morning
 Another error printed yesterday was due to the misunderstanding by Mrs Worden, of a question by the coroner who asked "How long have you been here" meaning in the Burger family. She replied several months, meaning that she had been in the city that long. She was stopping at MT. Burgers Thursday night for the reason that her husband was out of town and did not intend to return until yesterday but got word about midnight or before of the tragedy and returned imme- diately arriving here about o'clock yesterday morning.
 The bullet taken from the dead mans head was fitted to the empty shell thus proving conclusively that it was fired from that revolver. The nose of the bullet was ragged and fattened.
 After carefully considering the facts before it the jury unanimously agreed that the cause of death was "a gun shot wound accidentally self inflicted"
 Arrangements were partially com pleted yesterday for the funeral which will be held al the residence at 9 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The dead man was a member of both the FraternaI Order of Eagles of this city and the Knights of Pythias lodge of Jerome. as well as Of the Phoenix Fire department. The department will turn out to the funeral and probably the lodges will also. He was also charter member of the Pio- neer band though he has not been a member in recent years. The band will give no concert Sunday afternoon as previously announced.

PRISONER Il SUICIDE.
Supposed to Haze Eaten Poisoned
Pear Sent as Present.

Antonio Splnneli who died Sunday night
in the Tombs prison, is supposed to have
committed suicide He charged with shoot
ing Antonio Eppolito. alias Tony Paul. in Har-
lem September "a.
Yesterday afternoon DR. Schultz. the coro-
ner's physician reported to Coroner Shrady that
the autopsy had disclosed suspicious crcum-
stances. The mans organs sent to the
Board of Health for an ANALYSIS. The coroner
said that there strong evidence of the pres
ence of some poison, and he asked particularly
that watch be kept for strychnine. 1t is be-
lieved that the poison. if it existed, was conveyed
to the priOner in present of fruit.
II is recalled that last Saturday afternoon
SpinnelH received bag of pears. The exam
ination of fruit is particularly rigid at the
Tombs. Bananas, which come to the Italian
prisoners in large quantities, are watched care
fully for hidden knives. But apples and pears.
though they are inspected, are much less likely
TO be used a vehicle for knives poisons be-
cause an abrasion of the skin of such fruit could
be so easily detected. DIR. Mcclure is said to
have found a partly eaten pear in the prison
ers cell after his death 1t is said however, to
have borne no evidence of poison.
Spinneli was twenty-nine years old and lived
at Rockaway Beach. 1t was expected that his
trial would be called for Friday of this week

ADVOCATES "HAIR DOCTORS"
Occupation College Girls Might Take Up,
Suggests Mr.. Finck.

Woman's hair has been called her crown of
glory, and every self-respecting woman values her
hair at far than its weight in gold but has
remained for Henry T. Finck. writing in ''The In
dependent. to suggest the craft of hair doctor
as medical speciality "pre-eminently suitable for
women" These woman hair doctCrs' would rank
far above the ordinary mans barber he says, for
there would be nothing derogatory in doing pro-
fessionally what every woman does for herself
more or less amateurshly; besides, the prevention
of badness is as legitimate and dignifed bust
ness any other branch of hygiene and thera-
peutics Hair. as things go in this world. is one

physician isn't much good at For one thing, he
is generally not consulted till late ard, for

tor would come in This profession would offer
great opportunities for distinction and wealth Z"
while calling for no departure from "woman's

LONG OVERDUE SHIP ARRIVES.
Schooner Rhoda Rode Through Three Storms
UnScathed

Given up as lost, there being no report of her
Cuba, the two-masted schooner Rhoda arrived yes
terday unscathed. She even refused the assistance
of a tugboat in coming up the channel, Captain
Day believing that if he weathered three of the
worst storms known in the Atlantic, he could come
up to Quaratne alone
None of the incoming ships for a fortnight had
seen the Rhoda She was practically posted on the
list of missing ships, and her agents were sur
prsed yesterday when she dropped anchor in the
Lower Bay. She sailed from the coast or san
Bias on September % with cargo of $4,000 cocoa
nuts and allowing big margin for bad weather,
she should have arrived here fourteen days ago.
She ran into three hurricanes and was driven many
miles off her course. Her decks were awash con-
stantly throughout the storms, and great combers
battered her sides
Il have been following the for forty years
said Captain Day yesterday, "and l have never
been in a worse blow than that which caught the
Rhoda on this trip. The force of wind and wave
was enough to wreck an ocean liner, but 1t seemed
unable to wreck the Rhoda. No one was hurt ana
we didn't lose a human life, but my mascot, a
black and tan dog was washed overheard. He was
washed away from the deck on two occasions anu
