"RED ADMIRAIo SHOT.
Admiral Chouknin Granted Schmidt Privilege of Dying by Rine Bullets Rather Than Disgrace of
 Being Hanged.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 20. -. Former Lieutenant Schmidt, who com manded the vessels of the Black sea fleet which mutinied aud opened fire on the city of Sevastopol with the guns of the fleet. was shot at Otchakoff with three of his sailors.
 Schmidt was known at the time of the mutiny as the Red Admiral on account of his flying the red flag at the masthead
 The mutiny of 4,OOO sailors at Sevas- topol, complicated with general strike of employees of the post and telegraph services, broke out in November last. Schmidt, who had been dismissed from the navy because of bis revolutionary opinions, went on board the cruiser Otchakoff and assumed command of that vessel and of the other mutin0us ships.
 The Otchakoff and nine other vessels of the Black sea fleet and a regiment of infantry then attempted to seize the city. The ships opened fire on the forts, which replied, sinking the cruis- CTS Otchakoff and Dneiper and a trans port. Schmidt was captured. The seven remaining ships surrendered to the loyal warships of Admiral Chouk- min, and the regiment which had re xolted was forced to surrender. The casualties were estimated at 5000.
 In addressing the court before sen tence was passed upon him Schmidt said that he believed the gallows on which he died would mark the separa- tion of the old, slavish Russia from the new, free Russia. 'If,' he said, T could buy Russian. freedom with the most terrible death would die smil- ing" Appeals for clemency were set aside, but Admiral Chouknin granted to Schmidt the privilege of being shot instead of hanged.

SUICIDE OF GERTRUDE LAKE.

City last Sunday when they sent the
Dody OF poor Gertrude Lake, the sui
eide, back to her sister in Pennsylva-
mia. For this purpose, under the kind
auspices of Mrs. Louisa Coulson. they
contributed 500 and the coffin of the
dead girl was wreathed with flowers.
Though her pathway in life was
among thorns let us hope that her last
slumber is made sweet by these to-
kens of sympathy.
! The story of Gertrude Lake. mea-
gre and broken as it is, is one of the
most pathetic in our city's annals of
the unfortunate. Here it was that
life's tradegy closed in suicide, the
climax of her wanderings and lonely
struggles for honorable self mainte.
nance in cities of the east and of the
west.
Some meagre letters and papers and
a little leather-backed note book were
all she left to tell mutely and broken
ly the story of her life. The little
note book contains quotations, in her
handwriting, from a score of authors
including Emerson, Ruskin, Claiming,
Chesterfield, Poe, Rosseau, Corelli and
The Arena magazine. These quota
lions show that her constant ideal was
for purity of heart, for honesty, kind
ness to others and patience in her
own trials. With these noble senti-
ments she had sustained her soul
through the latter years of loneliness
and longing for someone to love her;
someone to be kind to her till at last,
in her weakness, all seemed to fail
and death offered her the only well
come.
She had once a husband but he de-
serted her years ago. She had tried
to comfort herself by the study OF
books, as shown by the following quo
tation from "The Rose of Hundred
Leaves" In such efforts (study af-
ter her husband deserted herr her
heart was purified from all bitterness,
wounded vanity and Impotence. Life
then was not lonely for she had a no.
BILE object to work for" Then follow
these lines without marks of quota
ton:
Better to hold high belief
Though what we hope for ne'er
may be;
Better, cen though, through life so
brief,
Thy noble toll no fruits shall
see."
What had most darkened her life
was the death of her little child,
girl of three years.
She had lived among strangers, had
worked as waitress, a nurse, stem
ographer and had taught school. Once
last winter she told friend here how
she had lost a position as stenogra-
pher because she could not be good
girl and hold the place, even with its
meagre salary.
The firm she once worked for in Pro-
vo as stenographer treated her kind
ly, and loaned her SIS. She seemed
to be worried because she could not
pay this loan. She went to California
but finding no suitable employment
returned to Salt Lake. Here she re-
ceived a letter from the Provo firm
saying not to worry about the $15
and not to bother them with letters of
apology With this letter pinned on
her bosom and leaving no word or
scrap 4 writing to indicate contem-
plation of the deed, she drank two
ounces of carbolic acid and died. She
was still young, but her dark hair
