Wayne County Boy Suicides.

This community was greatly shocked
Monday morning by the announcement
of the death, by his own hands, of Pearl
Glow, only son of MIR. and Mrs. G. W.
Glow, which occurred at the family home
two miles northwest of town, about s
o'clock. The deed was committed with
shot gun and the charge passed en-
tirely through the body directly over
the heart coming out just below the
shoulder blade. The young man live d
only few minutes and did not speak.
Pearl was nineteen years OF age and
had been a cripple for number of
years but was thought to have been
getting along nicely and had just re-

his friends heard of his rash act.
That the deed was premeditated is
thought by great many and the pop
ular idea as to cause is that he had
been experiencing much pain in his
limb of late and was fearful that that
member would again cause him much
trouble. The true cause will probably

Asnear as we can learn concerning the
suicide is that Pearl had risen as usual
Monday morning and seemed in good
spirits. He went out to the barn and
did the milking and otherwise assisted
with the mornings work. Coming into
the house he ate break fast as though
nothing was wrong. After the meal he
stepped to the door and watched the
rain for few minutes. He than got
writing material and went up stairs to
his room, telling the family that he
wished to write letter.
After a while his sister, yerda, went
up stairs and into his room and they
had jolly time together and he show
ed no signs of anything being wrong.
The sister soon went down stairs and
in few minutes the shot was heard.
Upon reaching the room the family
found the young man lying in pool of
blood with the gun beside him he hay

to discharge it.
