Robert Beard, a Philadelphia wool
buyer, shot himself through the
heart yesterday between the hours of
4 and o'clock.
The body was found under an oak
tree by the side of the road, near
tile wagon bridge north of town.
Yesterday evening boy who was
passing noticed man in his shirt
sleeves sitting under tree with his
back to the trunk. This morning,
however, he noticed when passing
there he noticed that the man was
still there and in the same position
and upon investigation found that
he was dead, having shot himself
through the heart with a 3S-calibrc
revolver. Before shooting himself
he had removed his coat and shoes
which were found on the ground be-
side him.
Bead was about thirty years of
age, and was the representative here
of the Joseph Bateman company of
Philadelphia, one of the largest firms
engaged in wool buying in the west.
1t has ben ascertained that he pur-
chased the revolver yesterday from
a cowboy, but at that time seemed
to be in an excellent humor. No
cause is known for the rash deed
but great many speculations have
been indulged in.
One rumor is to the effect that
Beard was in financial difficulties. He
is known to have received letter
yesterday containing hundred dol
lars and stated to several that he
expected to Leave for Philadelphia
today. Another rumor is That his
suicide was the result of family
troubles, the news Of which reached
him by letter yesterday. He was
seen on the streets about 3 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon and talked with
several persons and did not then
seem respondent. His suicide is a
complete surprise to all who knew
him in this vicinity. In his coat was
found a letter containing $71 and g
