George Mcbride Blows Out Brains
at Home Of His Brother.

at Home Of His Brother.
Geo. \. Mcbride shot and killed
himself at the residence of ais Druth-

street, northwest, at about $50
clock this morning Deceased had
been in bad health for number Of
years. Brooding over tins, IS sup
posed to have led to the rash Iced
The deceased came to this city
from Marlin, Texas, last fail and
has spent the greater part of the
time since with his brother. At the
time he killed himself there was no
one AZ home except his sister.in-law,
Mrs. j. 3. Mcbride, and one of her
daughters. He had been out to the
barn with his brother and when the
latter came down town he entered
the house procured the gun-a reg
ulation Army Colts, Al caliber-and
blow out his brains.
Mrs. J. b. Mcbride stated that she
heard noise in his room as OF
someone slipping about stealthily on
tIptoe, and before she had time 10
investigate she heard a muffled ex-
plosion followed by the sound of a
heavy fall. Rushing into the room
she encountered the body of her
| Dlother-in-law lying prone upon the
| tloor-death had been instantaneous.
Mrs. Mcbride summoned Assistant
County Attorney w. r. Bleakmoro
and notified the sheriff's office. DR..

1t seems that the deceased had

close to his right temple and pulled
the trigger. The entire skull was

The room presented a most gruesome
SIGHT. Blood and brains We're spat-

which the revolver had been taken,
over the carpet and on the wall. The
body had spun half around from the
force of the shot and was lying on the
lett side, in a huddled heap upon the
floor. The bullet entered the right
temple and after plowing its way

Of the skull and striking a nail II

"A farmer carrying an express
package from mali order house was

Why didn't you buy that bill of goods

The International Seamen,s Union
of America is actively booming legis-
lation to make free men of American
seamen, and build up the American
merchant marine. AS a step in this
direction the union has issued bull
letin setting forth tersely its views.
Among the paragraphs are: The pres
ent irresponsible method of manning
ships with incompetent deck crews
makes disasters inevitable; the sea-
men pointed out the danger years be-
fore either the Titanic or the Gen
eral Slocum disasters took place; the
American seamen are not free men
under the present laws, and that is
why they leave the sea, and American
boys refuse to enter the calling; con-
gress should pass the seamen's bill as
the first and most important step.
