BAKERSFIELD, Oct. 14.-Alfred w.
Hulse, under life sentence for the mur-
der of Deputy Sheriff William E. Tib-
bet and awaiting the outcome of an
appeal to the Supreme Court, killed
himself in the County Jail this after
noon by cutting his throat with a
razor. 1t was Hulse's practice to shave
himself every Sunday and for that pur-
pose he borrowed a razor from the
Sheriffs office. He made his request
for a razor as usual this morning and
carefully shaved himself His lunch
was taken up to him at IL O'Clock, but
it developed later that he left it un-
tasted. The attention of Jailer Price
was directed to Murderers' Row by the
screams of other prisoners about 8
o'clock and on entering the corridor
he found Hulse lying with his head
over the drain and breathing his last
He had severed the jugular vein and
died in a few minutes.
HulSe was convicted as an accessory
to the murder of Deputy Sheriff Tibbet
who fell in fierce battle in a joss
house in this city between q posse OF
officers and the outlaw, Jim Mckinney
The battle occurred in Hulse's room
and revolvers belonging to him and
ammunition purchased by him were
found in the room after the fight
Whether Hulse was actually present at
the battle was never fully determined
In court, but District Attorney Laird
secured his conviction as an accessory.
Deputy Sheriff Tibbet and City Mar
shall Packard were killed in the bat
tie, which took place in April. 1908
Mckinney was killed at the time by
Policeman Bert Tibbet, a brother OF
one of the murdered officers. Hulse
was convicted year later and since
that time had been in the County Jail
awaiting the result of an appeal to the
Supreme Court

a mixture of suiphuric acid and cyanide
of potassium.
Thompson lived at 207 North Broad
way. Saturday evening the Iandlady
looked into his room and saw him ap-
parently asleep on the bed. She closed
the door and did not pay any more at
tention to him until today, when she
again saw him in the same position.
Investigation then showed that he had
been dead nearly day.
The only papers found on Thomp-
sons body were an insurance policy for
a small amount, made out in favor of
his divorced wife, Mrs. Ida NJ Thomp-
son of 2647 Raymond avenue, aiAa a
document showing that he was a thir-
ty-second degree Mason.
For some time he was credit man for

gan laying track below the cement gate

great effort will be made to do so. At
the same time, preparations are being
made for using the upper heading The
latter has the advantage of being on
