FIND DEAD BODY
Of CONSUMPT|VE

An unidentified man. apparently a
consumptive, was found dead in bushes
near Soto and Alhambra streets last
night. A nearly empty phial of car
bolic acid was found beside the man s.
body, which indicated that he had COM
mitted suicide. He was dressed in u
brown suit of clothes, appeared to be 20
years of age and looked like man VINO
had lived in moderately good circum-
stances. There was not a scrap of paper
or anything revealing his identity found
upon him, and the coroner and police
are mystified.
The body was found in the bushes
near the Southern Pacific tracks yes
terday morning by the little daughter
of Francisco Brander, who lives near
the spot where the tragedy was COM
mitted. She was playing along the track
at the time she saw the corpse, but
thought it only a tramp asleep and
made no mention of it to her father.
Early last night, however, she was
walking through the brush and
stumbled against the dead body of the
man. She screamed and ran to her
father, who went to investigate. What
he supposed was sleeping drunk an
man proved to be the corpse of the un-
known suicide.
1t is believed that the dead mans
motive for ending his life was the
ravages of consumption, which We're
plainly marked in his hollow, livid
cheeks and sunken chest. He left no
message to explain his act, however
The corpse now lies in the morgue of
Paul's undertaking establishment, 2031
Downey avenue, where an inquest will
probably be held upon it today.

Takes Up Supply Question
DR.. Moore does not mention any
names, but his meaning is not at all
obscure. He says: I'VE have suffered
i'm a measure from shortage OF coal.
We recommend that hereafter the or
ders for the annual supplies be pre-
pared as soon after the first Of May
8 possible, and that all contracts be
let Immediately after the first Of July,
and that immediate delivery Of all or
ders be specified i'm the contracts and
guaranteed by penalties. We recon-
mend that hereafter delivery OF the
years supply of coal be made before
the opening of the fall term of school,
The school boards trouble with the
coal companies this year could have
been avoided by such clause as SUI
perintendent Moore advocates Last
July the promise to deliver all coal
before September IS Is said by the
school officials to have been made
verbally; but all through the summer
months they did not bother to attend
to the matter, with the result that
when the fuel in the city ran short
there was little or none on hand. and
the coal company could not supply It,
BY specifying that all fuel must be
delivered before the opening of the fall
term, under penalty, the board will
have some hold on derelict companies.
An interesting feature of the super
intendents report Is the data as to
the present attendance in the schools
DR.. Moore's report shows that In the
seventy-one schools of the city there
are 966 teachers imparting wisdom to
34,725 children.
