SUICIDES WHEN
LOVE IS VAIN
Morton County Man Kills
Self in Unusually DELHI
crate Manner

Mandan, n. D., Nov. lS-One of the
most deliberate and Eruesome sui
cides that ever occurred in Morton
county took place when Fred Schultz.
a young farmer near Fort Rice, took
his own life.
The deed was committed in the
house on Schultz claim. where he liv-
over from his fathers place to get
some coal and had just stopped AT
the barn to put up his horses when he
heard the shot and went to the house
and found the door locked, but upon
investigating saw that his brother had
shot himself. He went for help and
broke down the door. 1t would APP
pear hat Schultz had died instantly.
Schultz. according to Coroner Ken
nelly. sat down IN the center Of the
1oor III the dining room Of the house
and placed an old army Springfield RI
fe between his legs with the end of the
barrel against his right breast. III
his hand he held Il stick taken from
lie bottom of a window curtain. with
Which he pushed the trigger. The
bullet passed through his body strik-
ing the aorta and going on through
the body. Death was instantaneous.
After going through his body the bull
let passed through the dining room
wall ana lnen through the ToOi OIL lne
kitchen.
Schultz was rs years old at the time
OF his death. He was the son of Jo-
seph Schultz. n of the old timers
of Morton county. He was a widower
with a small child. The direct cause
Of hts rash act was due it is thought
to a woman whom he intended to mar
~ and also to the fact that he had
passed several checks on merchants In
Mandan on the bank Of Fort Rice in
which he had nc funds and he feared
the consequences. Just who h wo-
man in the case was IA not be as
certained. but from what he said she
lived in st. Paul. A week ago Mon
day he left for St. Paul to get mar
Tied and returned in a few days with
out giving any reason. Just what
occurred in St Paul is only a matter
Of conjecture, but it apparently was
the main cause for his act.
Schultz was apparently a hard work
ing man and had a good claim. Hc
had succeeded fairly we'll for a young
man of his & and just within the
last few months had he gone astray.
