the motion began at 9:14 a. m but
it's duration was relatively short and

BLOWS HIS HEAD OFF.
Leavenworth County Farmer Conn
nrits Suicide With Shot Gum

Leavenworth, Oct. 16. - William
Barnhart, who for many years has
lived a mile and a quarter from Boil
ing committed suicide yesterday after
noon by shooting himself
1t is thought that the act was COM
rnftted about 3 or O'Clock yes
terday afternoon Men coming in
from work about o'clock last night
found his body in barn near his
house. He had taken shotgun and
placing the end of the barrel against
his forehead had pulled the trigger
and the charge had blown away the
entire top of his head
No motive for the deed can be dis
covered. Coroner Johnson went to
the scene of the tragedy at once, but
beyond a short note, could find moth
ing to throw any light on the mat
ter The note which was found near
the body was brief and merely stated
that no family trouble was in any way
responsible for his action in taking his
life Not a word was said as to what
other influences might have had q
bearing in the case.
