OCTOGENARIAN SAYS
HE'S TIRED OF LIFE
WRITES WIFE HE INTENDS TO
COMMIT SUICIDE
j. H. caverIy Disappears from Home
and Sends Letter to Spouse
Threatening to Kill
Himself

In addition to causing his wife
much worry and anxiety by suddenly
appearing from his home, j. H.
Caverly, 81 years old, of 1873 South
Hicks street, caused further worry and
distress yesterday, when, while Mrs
Caverly was preparing to institute a
search, she received a letter from
Caverly posted in Los Angeles to the
effect that he intended to commit sui
eide, and that she would never again
see him alive.
Caverly left home Tuesday morning,
and, meeting a neighbor, stated that he
was going to the beach to pass the
day. When night came and her hus-
band did not return, Mrs. Caverly be-
came alarmed and asked the police to
assist in finding him.
After passing a sleepless night Mrs.
CaVerly again communicated with
the detectives, and on being informed
they were unable to find any trace of
him was about to start on a search
for the missing man when the post
man arrived with a letter addressed in
Caverly's handwriting.
The letter in substance stated the
writer was tired of living and in
tended to kill himself at the first op-
portunity and she would never see him
alive.
The missing man is 8 feet 8 inches
in height and weighs about 100 pounds.
Has white hair and beard and his up
per lip is shaVen. When last seen he
was wearing gray trousers with light
colored stripes, a black cutaway coat
and a dark short overcoat.

FALL FROM ELEVENTH
FLOOR PROVES FATAL
MEXICAN KILLED IN STORY
BUILDING
Laborer Trips Over Pipe, Crashes
Through Thin Boards and
PIunges Down Shaft
for Stairway e

Tripping over piece of pipe on the
eleventh floor of the Story building, in
course of erection at Sixth street and
Broadway, B. Ornelas, 2S years old, a
Mexican laborer, fell backward, crashed
through some thin boards covering an
opening where stairway will be built.
and dropped to the second floor. The
unfortunate man was killed instantly,
almost every bone In his body being
broken.
Ornelas and several other men were
employed to remove wheelbarrows con-
tanning brick from temporary freight
elevator and take them to where bric.
masons were working about fifteen or
twenty feet away.
The unfortunate Iaborer had Just de-
posted his load of bricks near the
masons and walked backward several
feet. A pipe in which electric wires
will be placed protruded several inches
above the floor. Ornelas failed to see
this, and stumbled over it. He at
tempted to regain his balance and feSl
backward on some 1x6-inch boards
placed several inches apart, covering
the opening for the stairway.
The frail boards offered but little sup
port. and he crashed through. Tho
body bounded from one side of the
shaft to the other and finally landed
across a beam on the second floor.
The coroner was notified and the body
was removed to the undertaking estab-
lishment of the Overholtzer- Mills COM
pany where an inquest will be held.
According to Henry Rider, foreman
for w. Grow, who is in charge of the
construction work. Ornelas began work
Monday and did not say anything about
his relatives or where he lived.

BENNETT UNABLE
TO FURNISH BAIL
AMOUNT OF BONDS FIXED AT
$4,000
CAUSE OF DEATH ALLEGED TO BE
STILL IN DOUBT
Judge Declares He Could Not Deter
mine Whether Strychnlne or Pto-
maine Poison Killed Wife
of Accused

Harper e. Bennett, in whose trial on
a. charge of killing his wife, February
13, a jury disagreed last Saturday was
cheered and disappointed yesterday, his
feeling Of pleasure being caused when
Judge Willis. of the criminal court fixed
the amount of bonds for his release
from the county jail at $4,000, while his
disappointment was due to the fact
that he was unable to secure bondsmen
and WAS compelled to remain in Jail an
other night.
The motion for Benefits release was
made bv Col. T. L. Johnson early in
the afternoon, and was based on the
conflicting testimony during the trial,
the attorney stating that the question
whether Mrs Bennett died from the ef-
fects of strychnine or ptomalne poison
ing was still in doubt.
Assistant District Attorney McCo-
mas. who conducted the prosecution
of Bennett, opposed the motion. He
was willing, he said, to call the mem
bers of the jury to prove they believed
it was a case of strychnine poisoning,
and that the only doubt must be as to
whether or not Bennett administered
the poison.
Judge Willis in placing the amount
of bond at $4,000, said he was aunable
himself to determine from the evidence
the latter question.
C. Boulus, a cousin of the late Mrs.
Bennett, qualified as one bondsman for
Bennett, but Attorney Johnson was un-
able to locate c. L. Franklin, who, he
said, had promised to affix his name to
the bond.
Benefits two children, Lalah and
Grace, remained in the court room more
than two hours, awaiting their fathers S
release. Bennett speaking of his move
1nents in the near future, said he would
go to Long Beach and rest until Mon
day, and would then return to Los An
geles to pull the odds and ends of his
business together

MOTHER TAKES

INTOXICATED WOMEN ARE AR
RESTED IN CAFE
FoUR-YEAR-oLD BOY AMAZED AT
PARENTS ACTIONS
Residents of Eagle Rock Raise Dis
turbance Because Refused Drinks
by Restaurateur-Jall
to Sober Up

Staggering along South Main street
Vatnly endeavoring to carry her d
year-old son, who seemed amazed in
his childish way at his mothers pc
culiar actions, Mrs. May Potts and
her friend, Mrs. Laura Peterson, both
of whom live at Eagle Rock, made
their way to a cafe at Seventh and
Los Angeles, and while about to
create disturbance because they were
refused drinks, were arrested by Pa
trolman McPhillips.
With her child clasped in one arm,
Mrs. Potts struggled to the best of
her ability and made desperate at
tempt to break away from the patrol
man. Mrs. Peterson, on the other
hand, began to weep Historically and
begged the officer to release her.
McPhillips detained the women in
the cafe until the arrival of the pa
troll wagon and then another struggle
with Mrs. Potts ensued before she
was persuaded to enter the patrol
wagon.
Women and Child Cry
Both women then began to cry and,
frightened by the unusual occurrence,
the little boy also commenced to wall
at the top of his voice and the trip
to the police station was heralded a
block in advance.
AT the police station every effort to
take the child from the intoxicated and
weeping mother was in vain and fin
ally the woman, with the child in her
arms, was started toward the Jail
door, a partolman on each side sup
porting her.
At the Jail door Mrs. Potts again,
in a maudlin plea to the jailer, asked
to be allowed to take her child home.
AS she was unable to care for her
self, let alone the child, her request
was denied and she was locked up in
the matrons department of the city
jail.
Mrs. Peterson also objected to being
| locked up and begged to be released.
I'VE will get away from here, sober
up and go home and our husbands
won't know a thing about It," she
said between hiccoughs. AS she, too,
was unable to care for herself, it was
decided the best place for her to sober
up was in the Jail.
No Complaints Filed
The women were booked mo COM
plant" and when they are sufficiently
sobered up will be released.
McPhillips said ne first saw the
women as they were near Seventh and
Main streets. He noticed them stag
gering along and heard the child cry
Ing. Following them to the cafe, he
arrived in time to prevent them from
creating a disturbance over the re-
fusal of the proprietors to serve them
drinks.
The women said they bought num-
ber Of drinks at another cafe, but
would not tell what place.
Both were we'll dressed, but their
beplumed hats hung at rakish angles
over their ears.

THE first detailed reports Of Robert

II pole gave the impression that the
only other man that made the final
march and actually accompanied him
to the pole was Egingwah, an Eski-
mo who had been with him on some
of his other trips of exploration. Later
Henson. his negro cook, stated that
he and four Eskimos were with Peary
at the pole. Members of the crew

were left at the end of the last days
