Geo. p. Yopson Takes His Life

Geo. p IOnSOn Takes His Ilfe.
The entire community was shocked,
shortly after noon today, by the announce
ment that Geo. P. Yonson, one of the
most respected citizens Of Waynesboro,
had committed suicide by hanging him
self in his stable at his home. MIR. Yon-
son had on several occasions suffered from
melancholy and it is believed that he had
reapsed into the same condition when he
took his life this morning.
He was foreman of the woodworking
department of Frick shops, went to work
as usual. About o'clock he was miss
ing from the shops and his son, Steiner,
went to his home to learn if he had re-
turned there. No one had seen him there
and his son returned to the shops. At
noon Mr.. Yonson did not put in his ap-
pearance and Mrs. Yonson thinking he
might have gone to the stable and been
taken sick, went there to look for him.
She found him hanging from the ceiling.
His neighbor, o. ]. X. Eavy, was notih-
ed, and he with several other persons,
after notifying Coroner Skinner, went to
the stable and cut down the lifeless FORM
No inquest was held.
Mr.. Yonson had hanged himself with a
new rope he had fastened in the floor Of
the second story Of the stable. He had
boared a hole through the floor and put
the rope through this, fastening it SO that
it was secure. Then he went to the first
floor, climbed upon the hog trough, fas-
tened the rope around his neck and swung
himself off. His face was to the wall
when he was found. His bands were
cold but beneath his arms there was a
little warmth. He had evidently been
dead several hours.
Mr.. Yonson was one of the best fore
men in Prick shops. He was a master
workman and very capable director Of
the labors of large body of men. He
was Of quiet disposition but very obliging
intelligent, devoted to his work, very
faithful to his employers and considerable
of his workmen. Several years ago he
became depressed because of the great
quantity of work that was ordered from
his department and his inability to get it
out as rapidly as he desired. He made a
trip to Baltimore without his family s
knowledge but returned as soon as the
depression wore off. A year ago he dis
appeared similarly and went to Washing
ton. He was given an assistant on his
return and everything was moving ap-
parently smoothly with him. Yesterday
he was in excellent humor and good spirit
and this morning displayed no purpose of
the swift elimination he sought for his
life.
He is survived by his widow, and these
children: Steiner, Mabel, Martha, Henry,
Amelia and Helen; his mother, Mrs. Cath
arine Yonson, and his sister, Mrs. F. E..
Grove, who reside in this city.-Waynes-
boro Zephyr, of ed inst.
Funeral services of the deceased were
held at his home on Tuesday of this week.
Mr.. Yonson was a son-in-law of Mrs.
Amelia Black of Thurmont, and was well
and favorably known in this locality, hav-
ing lived with his parents at Jimtown in
the house now occupied by James Grouse.

PLAN BIG BENEFIT
TO AID FLOAT FUND
IN THE FIESTA PARADE

The projected entertainment of the
Central Labor council to create q fund
to present toward the expenses of the
coming Fiesta promises to be an ex-
ceedingly attractive one. The program
possesses not only the merit of well
selected variety, but presents the names
of high class professional entertainers
as contributors.
Among the most pleasing of the num-
bers to be presented will probably be
the dialect reading of Richard b. Har-
rlson, who has made study of negro
character and sentiment, and he is par
ticularly happy in his recitation of the
verse melodies of Paul I4aurance Dun
bar, the best known egro-American
poet.
Other numbers on the program in
clude vocal and instrumental soIoists-
notably a baritone, soprano and a
contralto singer of professional emil
nence. Farce comedy, song and dance
and sketch artists make up several
numbers. Athletics, represented by
grouping and hand balancing work Of
the six Y. M. c. A. gladiators and a
physical culture act presented by two
widely known boxers comprise two
numbers.
The concluding act will be the light
ming drill and pyramid building and
wall climbing exercises of the Fremont
zouaves, company of seventeen young
and agile men, under the command Of
capt. 10. ID. Cloud, who purposes maxi
ing a professional tour with the com
pany. At the recent Shriner circus the
zouaVes made a sensational hit with
their dazzling uniforms of purpIe
jacket, yellow vest and red trousers
Their drill evolutions at the circus
earned them much admiration.

DAIRYMAN MUST
EXPLAIN TO BOARD
Falls to Clean Up A,ter Being Warned
Twice by Health Officers, and
Now His Permit Is In
Jeopardy

The newly appointed milk inspectors
are keeping the dairymen on the qui
vive. Yesterday u. C. Lockhard was
added to the growing list OF delin-
quents who are slated to appear be-
fore the board of health to explain to
that body why their permits to sell
milk should not be revoked.
Lockhard, after being twice notified
ny an inspector to have his place
cleaned up, was cited to appear before
the board. He recently moved from
Compton avenue to Slauson and Santa
Fe. When an inspector visited his new
location ne declared 1t to be insanitary
and gave him five days TO clean up. A
second visit showed no change in the
establishment, and Lockhard was given
seven days more. He failed to take
advantage of the delay, and will now
have to appear before the board.
All permits. to sell milk within the
city limits expire April 80, and none win
be renewed till the milk inspectors
have had an opportunity to examine
into the sanitary condition Of the dair-
les whose owners apply.

WATER FOR MINES
IN LEE DISTRICT
STILL ANOTHER STRIKE is THE
LATEST REPORT
Big Pumping Apparatus Ordered
Shipped from Los Angeles.
Miles Of Pipe Line to
Be Laid
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
RHYOLITE, New, April 25.-The
strike of water in the Lee district of
the Funeral mountains is of greater
extent than was first expected and the
owners of mining and townsite prop
erty in the district are jubilant.
S. j. Hernstadt, who owns the new
water supply, has just returned from
Lee with the announcement that the
men at work have pierced another hard
stratum and have struck a warm flow
of water that runs into the well from
the southeast.
There are now twelve feet of good
water in the workings and until a
pump is put upon the ground it will
be impossible for the men to continue
work.
Hernstadt has ordered a pump from
Fairbanks, Morse & Co. of Los Angeles
that will be capable of handling 1900
gallons an hour and as soon as the
express company can put the machin-
cry up the work will be started at
sinking even deeper
From present indications the water
will be sufficient to supply not only
the town of Lee, Cal, which is owned
by Hernstadt, but will be capable of
supplying the Lee Bonanza mine and
the Hayseed, in both of which Hern-
stadt is interested.
Pipe lines will be laid at once and a
pumping plant installed to carry the
water to a reservoir in the hills from
which the flow will be by gravity to
the town and mines.
Plan New System
The discovery of this water supply
is fortunate, as it appears at the pres
ent time as though the water supply
of Beatty will be cut off in part at
Springdale, where a water company
has obtained foothold above the point
from which the Beatty water is sup
piled.
If this is the case there will be no
extra water for the Beatty company to
pipe to Lee
In speaking of the Lee situation Mr..
Hernstadt said; I'm my opinion we
will be able to supply th9 camp and the
mines, for we can sink other wells in
the neighborhood of the one that now
is in operation, with every chance for
success.
"The water question is the only one
that has been troubling the district,
for there is a great deal of difference
between a pipe line three miles long
and a haul of eighteen miles
There has been a great deal of talk
about a gravity pipe line from the
snow-capped Panamints that will be
buried beneath the Death valley sands
to prevent expansion, to carry water
across the valley TO the top of the
Funeral range to a big reservoir.
"There is only one thing against this
and that is the fact that it would be
| impossible to find pipe that would
carry the water pressure at the bottom
o. the valley, as it would be something
| terrific.
II hope that the discovery of the
Lee water will prove ample to erect
at least custom mill for the handling
of Lee ores"
