MAN FOUND DEAD
UPON BAY SHORE
WOman's Purse in Pocket of
Suicide Washed to Foot
of Dwight Way

BERK ELEY, March 27.-The morgue
and police authorities have COM
menced an investigation to learn the
identity and circumstances surround
ing the death of a well dressed man
about 40 years of age, whose body was
found at the foot of Dwight way, on
the bay shore. this morning.
The man evidently had committed
suicide and been washed upon the
beach by the tide, but from all appear
ances he had not been in the water
more than Il hours. His coat was
found 25 feet away from the body and
covered with sand, whether by hu-
man agency or by the tides the author
tiles refuse TO state.
There was no evidence Of q struggle.
Pathetic evidence that a woman may
have had a place in the mans life and
possibly some knowledge of his death
was afforded by a dainty woman s
purse containing dollar evidently
treasured. for in another pocket was
found 81 loose.
The mans clothes were purchased
in San Francisco and almost new.
They were black and of good texture.
His soft pleated shirt was of fine
fabric and the shoes were of the new
est last A celluloid collar and black
necktie were oddly placed IN the in
side pocket of the coat. His hose We're
white and his underwear blue.
In the pockets, besides the coin and
purse, were small mirror, aluminium
comb and penknife There were no
cards or marks whereby his identity
could be established, and no one has
appeared at the local morgue to
Identify the remains or throw light on
the suicide
The man was about 40 years of age
and feet inches tall. He was bald,
had blue eyes and face which,
though furrowed with grief, shows
marks of culture.
An engineer of the West Berkeley
local first saw the body, and later a
number of boys, among whom were

The first horses of the western plains

Spaniards In 1916, more than so years

about the plains OF New Mexico, and he
tells OF the dogs, used by the Indians
to haul their plunder on lodge poles,
indicating that they had no horses at
that date, says the ST Louis Post-Dis-
patch.
In 171s the Spanish again worked
their way eastward across the plains
and their letters tell. of the astonish-
ment of the Indians at seeing the
horses they had with them. The expe-
dlt1on was constantly losing horses
and there is little doubt that the first
droVes of western horses originated
from these strays
