Sweet potatoes may be kept until Jan

chaff so that they will not touch each
other
Pumpkins and squash must be thor.
ouphly ripe and mature to keep well.
They should be dried from time to time
with cloth and kept, not on the eel
lar floor, but on shelf and well separat-
ed from each other.
Cabbages are to be placed in barrels
with the roots uppermost
Celery should be neither trimmed nor
washed. but packed heads up, in long
deep boxes. which should then be filled
with dry earth.
Tomatoes may be kept until January

BANK HEAD
ENDS LIFE
Baltimore Man Was Mixed Up
in Racing.
EXPLAINS ACT IN A NOTE
Says the Attacks by Newspaper Have
Hurt Him, and Governor Says
Track Owners Imposed
on Him.
EXPLAINS ACT IN A NOTE

Baltimore, Sept ls.--George G. Nor
& Trust company of this city, COM
mitted suicide some time during Mon
day night in one of the private rooms
at the Baltimore Athletic club.
The report to the police says that
Mr.. Morrison ended his life with gas,
which he inhaled through tube.
Mr.. Morrison was about 40 years of
age and married. He occupied a con-
spicuous position in the business and
political affairs Of Baltimore, and also
was prominently interested in horse
racing.
He left a note explaining the deed.
The coroner took possession of it, and,
while refusing to make all of il pub
lie at this time, he said that the dead
man referred to the newspaper public
ity given to his interest in the race
track at Hayre de Grace as one reason
for his action.
The portion Of the note given out
said: 81 am in trouble only to my God
He knows whether it is just for the
self-sacrificing work of years to be set
at naught by the onslaughts of yellow
newspaper, against which there is no
defense"
The suicide of Mr. Morrison came
within few days of accusations made
by Governor Goldsborough that Mr..
Morrison and other leaders of the bust
ness and social life of Hartford county
had made Misrepresentation concern
ing the Hartford county racing BILL
In public statement Governor Colds
borough said that had not he been de-
ceived by the statement of Mr.. Morri-
son and other representative men, he
would not have signed the bill which
allows racing in Hartford county.
Following up the governors charges,
the grand jury of Hartford county be-
gan an investigation Of the facts re-
garding the Havre de Grace race track.
and it was the intention to summon Nh.
Morrison, along with a number of 9TH
ers whose names had been mentioned in
with the matter.
Mr.. Morrison's Keen interest in poll
ties had led to his selection as chairman
of the Democratic advisory committee
for Maryland and to conduct the cam
paign for Wilson.
Mr. Morrison went to his room in the
athletic club at noon Monday, telling
club attendants that he intended to do
some work there. That was the last
time he was seen alive.
