GRAFTON to the possible stand of those
who still remain bachelors but intend
at some future date to become bene-

The married woman, the married

pressed themselves on this question,
but the bachelor-who after all Is the
most interested-has not been consul

From the standpoint of the helpless

ENDS LIFE WITH PISTOL.
North Carolina Physician, Convicted
Of Wife Murder, Commits Suicide.

North Carolina Physician, Convicted
Of Wife Murder, Commits Suicide.
Associated Press to The Evening Tiuaes.
Baltimore, Md, Nov. 23.--With a
term of twenty years in the peniten-
tiary confronting him for the murder
of his wife, DR.. Joseph Baxter Matth-
ews, once a prominent physician OF
Greensboro, N. c., committed suicide
in a cheap lodging house at ga East
Baltimore street, this city, by shooting
himself in the head.
DR.. Matthews was out on $4,000 bali,
deposited in March. when motion
for new trial was made. He was
brought here then and taken to Mount
Hope Retreat, near this city, for
treatment for the morphine habit.
Recently he was returned to his rela-
tives, but escaped from them about
two weeks ago. Since that time his
relatives and the police have been
searching for him.
Last Wednesday the supreme court
of North Carolina sustained the YER
dict of the lowe rcourt. DR.. Matthews
was to have been delivered to the
authorities Dec. 10. 1t is supposed
he read the decision and preferred
death to Imprisonment.
1t is said that he declared some
time ago that he would kill himself
rather than suffer punishment when
he had done no harm. DIR. Matthews
went to the lodging house Friday and
engaged room. Yesterday afternoon
he told the negro waiter that he was
sick and did not wish to be disturbed.
Nothing more was seen of him until
2 p. m. today. when he was found dead
in bed In his room The bed Clothes
were soaked with blood and pistol
was held in his rigid left hand. In
the dead mans dress suit case were
found cards bearing his name and ad-
dress.
Mr.. Edward c. Matthews of Dur
ham, N. c.. brother of the dead man,
and Mr.. ]. N. German of Richmond,
DR. Matthew's brother-in-law, who
came here to search for the missing
physician, have taken charge of the
body.
