Ends His Life With Revolver
While i'm Room in Seattle
Hotel.
FEARED TO MEET WIFE,
Is BELIEF OF FRIENDS
Was in Poor Health, and PrOba-
bly, Temporarily Insane
From Drink.

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 2.-E. A.
Gage, son of Lyman j. Gage, former
Secretary of the Treasury, committed
suicide this afternoon at $3.50 o clock IN
the Tourist hotel corner Occidental ave-
nue and Main streets, by shooting him
self through the body with a 3s-cahber
revolver. He died a few minutes later,
The only cause for the shooting which
can be assigned was that he was tenn
porarily insane from drinking. His
wife, Mrs. e. A. Gage, came here from
Chicago last Monday and employed de
tectives to locate her husband. Friends
of the dead man believe he learned of
her presence and fearing to meet her
decided TO end his life.
Used Assumed Name.
Gage evidently knew that the detec-
tives were on his track, as he had reg
istered at the Tourist hotel under the
name of j. w. Gorst. He went there
July 19. Before that time he was stop
ping at the Greystone. where he stayed
when he reached Seattle from Chicago
on July Z. Leaving there on July 10,
he went TO one OF the other hotels of
the city and also registered there under
an assumed name. None of his bag
gage was at the Tourist.
The suicide was discovered by Wal
ter Brown, bell-boy IN the hotel, who
heard the shot and rushed into the
room, finding the man nearly dead.
When found he was lying on his back,
while beside him lay the revolver with
which he had ended his life. He had
evidently stood before the mirror of
his bureau and placed the gun to his
left side. a circular mark on his uu-
dershirt showed that he had moved the
muzzle of the weapon from the center
OF his chest 10 the left side, He had
removed his coat, vest, collar and shoes.
Too Much Whiskey.
There was nothing in his room ex
cept four empty whiskey bottles and
a quart flask which was half full Of
liquor. On his person was found a
Commerce which showed that he had
deposited more than 1000 when he
arrived here On July oath he had re-
quested the bank TO give him a state
ment of his balance remaining and 1T
footed up to S21l.S5, according to their
reply. The check book failed TO show
that any more money had been drawn
kince that date.
Inquiry at the bank showed that
Gage had deposited money there after
reaching Seattle from Chicago and that
he had come highly recommended from
eastern and local persons
Mrs. Gage arrived IN Seattle from
Chicago last Monday. She went Mt
once TO the Greystone. seeking MD in
locating her husband. She did not hear
Of her husband s death until late in
the evening.
A Seattle man who had known Mr.
Gage intimately for a number Of years,
declared it as his belief that the sui
eide was the result OF depression
brought about by weakened physical
and mental condition, the result of an
illness which nearly carried him Off
year ago at Chicago.

Pigeon Fakirs.

The bird fancier took a young pi-
geon's beak between his finger and
thumb. IF l was a pigeon fakir," he
said, I'D make this beak curve down
ward more. Every day I'd bend it, this
way, while it's young and soft, and
when the bird would grow up it would
have a beak of the correct shape. Be-
fore then, though, It would have passed
through n lot Of pain.
pigeon fakirs are pretty numerous.
They have tricks that will add 500 to
$50 to a fine birds value. A favorite
trick Is trimming. They cut out feath-
ers of the wrong color, and with their
scissors they manipulate certain mark,
ings till they get them into the pattern
that Is considered best. They dye the
birds feathers too. This work needs
skill and a good recipe. Judges, being
foxy, often touch a finely colored bird
with acid to see II the color is faded or
not. So the dye, Of course, must be
acid proof.

on the view of the American red man.
The red mans horizon has ~broadened
In that time. A young man who de-
scribes his adventures among the Sioux

warriors Of the plains unimpressed by
the noble paleface.
"Why do they call the Fourth Of July

asked as they sat by the campfire.
The explanation was somewhat inco-
herent, but included mention Of a war
with Great Britain.

marked the Indian reminiscently.

Mnkipg old potatoe. Now.

This is the way new potatoes are
manufactured in Paris: Old potatoes,
the cheapest and smallest that can be
purchased, are bought by the rafisto-
leurs de pommes de terre, as they are
called, who carry their property to the
banks OF the Seine. a good supply of
water being necessary. The potatoes
are put into tubs half filled with water;
then they are vigorously stirred about
by the feet and legs of the manufac.
turers, who roll up their trousers and
stamp on the raw potatoes until they
have not only completely rubbed off
their dark skins, but have also given
them that smooth and satin-like APP
pearance which is so much appreciated
by Commands. They are then dried,
neatly wrapped in paper and arranged
