AUSTRIAN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Love AFFAIR Supposed to Have Been
the Incentive,

Pete Baston, an Austrian, employed as
fireman in the pump house at the Union
Pacific transfer yards, shot himself
through the abdomen last night with sup
posed suicidal intent, Little could be
learned last night from any of his fellow
lahurers as to the cause which prompted
the man to desire to take his own life,
but 1t is supposed that q love affair had
something to do with 1t.
Pete Basto, an Austrian, employed as
to marry a young woman a, countrywoman
of his, who has been employed in the cook
shack at the transfer yards. Al the time
Basto secured the license he stated at
the court house that the marriage, in
accordance with the rules of the Greek
church, to which he and the young
woman belonged, would not take place
for six months, Nothing could be learned
