CLUBMAN THINKS HE
rs SNAKE CHARMER
e. p. WOOD HANDLES SLIMY REP
TILES WITH EASE
Shrine Sircus for Benefit of
Charity-Snakes Dance
to FIageoIet

The local Shriners are exhibiting
the hazardous feats they are deter
mined to accomplish in the cause of
charity at the circus performances at
Prayer park the week Of April 6.
For instance, E. P. Wood, the we'll
known business and clubman, has
volunteered to handle the snakes in
the public exhibitions.
There are over hundred serpents
in the collection, and they include
monster pythons, huge bull snakes,
black snakes and the always deadly
rattlesnakes. Mr.. Wood has worked
patiently with his dangerous charges
until he believes he has them subject
to his will, but the seething mass in
the enormous den presents a most
formidable appearance and makes the
blood run cold with fear at the thought
of any of the venomous reptiles turn
ing upon their master.
Mr.. Wood claims that the snakes
recognize his voice and know the
touch of his hand since he has de-
voted four weeks to feeding them and
keeping outsiders away. They appar-
emily respond trustingly to his ad-
vances and will obediently go through
a number of tricks, such as raising
themselves upon the length of their
bodies and with a swaying motion ap-
parently keep time to a f1ageolet, the
weird, mournful music seeming to
sooth them and afford dreamy pleas
ure.
The accomplishment of Trainer
Wood has excited the admiration of
his brother Mobiles as we'll as the
Sells-Floto people at Venice, and his
public exhibitions are looked forward
to with eagerness and anticipation,
albeit it will be tinged with fear.

Referring to the first visit eight years
ago of Harold Bauer, the famous pian-
list, announced to give a recital here

critic, wrote In the Musical World:
Occasionally a pianist comes to
America without flourish of trumpets.
beating of drums and general alarm
without. He comes, is heard, and con-
quers by the display of art and temper
ament. Such pianist is Harold Bauer.
"Mr. Bauer is not a man whose life is
enwrapped in legendary mists. The
story of his career is a simple tale of
indefatigable, conscientious work. He
was born in England in 1873 of mixed
parentage; his father was a German
by birth, his mother English. AS a
child he showed musical instincts, and
he began to play as violinist. He
played in public when he was 9 years
old. Although he had studied the pi-
ano, he did not dream of a career as q
piano virtuoso until Paderewski heard
him and urged him to devote himself
exclusively to the piano.
ut was in 1892 that Mr.. Bauer went
to Paris to study with Paderewski.
No doubt the latter was of assistance
to him, but Mr.. Bauer in a great meas
ure Is self-taught. A man of sensitive,
receptive, analytical mind, of liberal
knowledge and shrewd reflection, he
worked out his own salvation. In 1898
he made his debut as pianist in Paris,
and for the last eight years he has
called that city his home; but he has
Travelled extensively and given concerts
in Germany, Spain. the Netherlands,
Austria, Russia, Sweden and other
countries His first appearance in
America was at Boston. December 1,

KILLS SELF
FLEEs FROM ARRESTING OFFICER
AND DRINKS POISON
WIFE DIED ABOUT A WEEK
AGO
Complaint Charging Well Known
Business Man with Passing Fic-
titious Checks Had Just
Been Issued

Henry Hyde Dwight, a prominent
architect with offices in the Fay build
ing and who for some time has been
residing on the old Campbell Johnson
ranch at San Raphael Heights, Pasa-
dena, committed suicide yesterday aft
ernoon about O'clock.
A warrant was secured yesterday
afternoon by bank of Pasadena
charging Dwight with passing a fic-
tltious check for $40.
The warrant was given to Constable
w. e. Austin at $3.50 D. m. to serve.
" hen the constable arrived at the
house he found Dwight in conversation
with Hiram Weed, who is the admin
ictrator for Dwights wife's estate. Mrs.
Dwight died about week ago
Dwight begged the matter be post
roned until today, but the constable
refused to listen to any such arrange
ment. Dwight, seeing his entreaties
were in vain. said, "All right, L will
sc upstairs to my room and get my
hat"
Constable Austin said, "I will go up
With YOU" Dwight rushed up tho
stairs leading to his room and was
bout three steps ahead of the con-
stable. Upon reaching the room he
rushed to the farther side, where a
table was standing, and before the con-
stable could stop him had swallowed a
glass of liquid, which proved to be
composed of water and strychnine and
which had been mixed some time pre-
viously, evidently in preparation for
such an emergency.
Constable Summons Aid
The constable seeing what had hap
pened, hastily summoned Police Sur
had left Dwight found he had in the
meantime swallowed four-ounce bot
tie of chloroform.
Police Surgeon Mccoy worked hard
to save the architect, but he died at
1850 o'clock TIis body was taken to
the undertaken rooms of Adams, Tur-
ner & Stevens, where an autopsy will
be held at o'clock this morning.
Upon investigation it was found
that Dwight was at the end of his re-
sources. as he had within the last two
months passed numerous checks and
obtained various sums of money under
false pretenses, ranging from $40 to
$500.
He recently built a house for c. D.
Willard and was given sum of money
by Mr.. Willard, out of which he was
to pay the contractors. Instead of
paying IIllS, ne Is Sdlu " nave dppIO-
priated 1t to his own use.
He was not a man who spent in ex-
cess, nor did he have any expensive
habits, and the sums of money which
he had obtained cannot be accounted
for.
1t is rumore6 there is something mys-
terious in regard to the death of
Dwight's wife, The woman died after
an illness of only three days.
Since her death Dwight has been
living alone.
The only known relative of Dwight
is a sister who lives In Boston. The
only known relative of Mrs. Dwight is
d sister, Mrs. Eldridge, who resides in
Paso Robles.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Dwight came here
from Boston about two years ago.
They had no children of their own, but
adopted a little girl, who is about s
years old and who is boarding some
where in canta Monica.
Dwight wrote to the woman with
whom the child is boarding recently
and ended the letter by saying that 1t
was the last word that she would ever
receive from him.
