James Oakland Commits
Suicide at Lodgings in
Lebanon, N. H.
DEAD SINCE
FRIDAY LAST
Wife Was on a Visit to
Friends in Boston-No
Cause Known

Lebanon, n. H., Feb. l0.-About {
o'clock last night John Pulsifer felt a
draft coming from the room he let to
James Oakland, who had occupied il
with his wife. Thinking a window had
been left open he went into the room in
tending TO close it and stumbled over the
body of Oakland which was lying on the
floor in pool of blood with revolver
near it.
The police and a doctor were sum-
moned and an examination showed that
Oakland had been shot twice in the head
and that it undoubtedly was a case of
suicide.
Mrs. Oakland has been visiting rela-
tives at Boston for some time and Oak
land had not been seen at the Pulsifer
house since Thursday noon. After the
discovery of the suicide it was learned
that on Friday last Oakland purchased
80 calibre revolver in the Flanders sport
ing goods store and il is believed he
killed himself soon after buying it.
The dead man was about 80 years of
age and formerly was employed as driy-
er OF race horses by George Whitney of
Burlington. During the summer months
since then he has been engaged as driver
of automobiles and in the winter in
mill in this place. He was widely
known but none of his acquaintance
can give any reason why he should have
taken his own life.
Mrs. Oakland arrived here from Bos-
ton last night.

LIVES AFTER
BURIAL IN COAL
John Regain Went Through a Chute
With 100 Tons of Coal on
Top of Him.

Portsmouth, n H., Feb. l0-After be-
ing buried under hundred tons of coal
for nearly an hour, John Reagan, an
employee of the Boston & Maine rail-
road, was rescued Saturday with great
difficulty.
Reagan was at the top OF a coal
chute and the coal gave way under him.
He was thrown into the chute and the
coal forced him through the narrow
space until he was at the mouth of the
chute.
Other workmen, thinking that Rea-
gan could not escape smothering to
death. began to dig him out from the
top. They got far enough so that they
could see his hands raised above his
head, but were unable to continue,
as the coal fell on him as fast as they
removed it. They were finally obliged
to open the chute and his body fell to
the ground, distance of IS feet, all
the coal in the hopper coming with it.
His comrades were surprised to find him
still breathing.
He was unconscious for an hour. He
sustained a fracture OF the collar bone
and several cuts, besides internal in
iuries

Young Won Behren jumped into his
automobile, rode to the police station
and gave himself up.
1--WE have to kill themi" he declared,
They swore they would get me-!
Factories near the scene of the shoot
ing were closed to prevent more serious
trouble.
The shooting Saturday followed
trouble between young Won Behren and
his fathers employees Friday. Threats
We're made then, according to witnesses.
Won Behren carried two loaded revolt
vers when he came to work Saturday.
The negroes were killed in different
parts OF the factory.
John Gordon, big negro working in
a shed, was the first shot.
Won Behren shot without warning,
putting the revolver close to the negro's
head.
Without giving his victim second
look Won Behren went to another de-
partment OF the plant, and shot Henry
Gordon through the head.
Won Behren then made his way to
another part of the building, and with
out word shot down Walter Washing
heart
Won Behren then returned to his office,
donned proper clothing, took his fathers
automobile and hurried to the police sta
tion. The police believe the young man
IS insane.
The police received orders to arrest
my person carrying weapons in order to
ward off race riots.
In addition every member of the police
'orce is being kept on duty. The au-
horities hope that the explanation that
ton Behren was insane will satisfy the |
negroes.
