mo DOUBT OF
| THE SUICIDE
Suspicion the Suicide of John
McClish Was Fake Not
Justified

Owing to some peculiar circum-
stances surrounding the suicide of
John McClish, the barber who jumped
into the Wishkah river last Friday
night, doubt of the suicide is express.
ed in some quarters, although his wife
and intimate associates have no doubt
that his body lies at the bottom of the
river, and close watch will be main
tanned for it's appearance tomorrow,
the ninth day.
Investigation reveals the fact that
McClish was worried about money
matters. of which his wife was in
total ignorance He had a note for
500 falling due to Jack London the
next day. When drinking, his friends
say, he was in the habit of borrow
ing money, and on this occasion is
said to have borrowed nearly $1OO.
The fact of his borrowing money gave
rise to the suspicion that the suicide
was a fake, but careful investigation
dissipates that suspicion Almost all
of the money borrowed at this time
has been traced and it is found that
he paid it out His accounts as treas
urer of the BARRIERS Union had beer,
short, and on the day of his death
he deposited, in two deposits, about
$40. This with the payment of his
house rent and some household bills
that day, accounts for nearly all the
borrowed money.
The story of Herbert Cook, his COM
panion on the fatal night, remains
mistaken. Cook admits he had been
drinking with McClish that day and
night, and his first actions We're not
as they might have been had he been
sober, but the most rigid eXamina-
ton, by the police and Assistant
County Attorney A. e. Cross, fails to
detect flaw in the story

N MEMORY.

1t is generally supposed that of
all our faculties memory Is that
which nature has bestowed in
the most unequal degrees on diff
ferent individuals. and it is far
from being impossible that this
opinion may be well founded. If,
however, we consider that there
is scarcely any man who has not
memory sufficient to learn the
use Of language and learn to rec
ognize at the first glance the ap-
pearances Of a great number Of
familiar objects, besides acquir-
ing such an acquaintance with
the laws Of nature and the or
binary course of human affairs
as is necessary for directing his
conduct in life, we shall be sat
isfed that the original disparities
among men In this respect are by
no means so immense as they
seem to be at first view and
that much Is to be ascribed to
different habits of attention and
to a difference Of selection among
the various events presented to
the curiosity.-Dugald Stewart.

.Beaudful Quarters IN Hinck-

About That Time
Exqdsleiy Arranged Rooms
viii Be Dedicated

! The new Commercial club rooms in
the Hinckley block On Fourth street
will be ready for occupancy about
October 1st, and the members plan
a big jollifcation meeting for the oc-
'casion. There will be a big banquet
served for the members in the new
rooms. and an invitation has been ex-
tended to one Of the best speakers in
Minneapolis to make The address of
the evening. 'z
Z The opening Of the new quarters
will mean another step forward in
the history of the bismarck club.
There is q saying to the effect that
you can always judge a town by its
Commercial club. Everyone agrees
that Bismarck is a good town. The
new rooms are arranged especially
for the club and are up to date in
every particular, from the electric
range to the new draperies and rugs.
There is a large hall for dances, par
ties conventions and other gatherings.
There will be a reasonable charge
made for the use of the hall for par
ties for either the afternoon and even
ing and being SO very centrally To-
Gated in a new building and with up
to-date fixtures there is no doubt but
that this will be one of the most popu-
lar gathering places in the city for
social functions. The billiard room is
well lighted and ventilated and is en-
tirely shut off from the rest Of the club
quarters so that a social gathering
in the dance hall or a business meet
ing in the office will not interfere with
each other. '"'" reg
These are. without question, the
best arranged Commercial club rooms
in the state, probably in the north
west outside of the Twin Cities and
the members may we'll feel proud CT
their new home. They can take
pleasure in bringing their out-of-town
friends to the rooms for lunch or
other Entertainment.
The e dining room and kitchen
will be modern in every particular
and a tasty luncheon will be served
every day. There will be a good cook
and a nice variety of foods served.
In fact, in every way, the officers in
tend making the club rooms the most
popular gathering place in the city.
The exact date Of the formal open.
ing cannot be announced yet as the
directors have decided not to throw
open the rooms until, everything is in
proper shape and all arrangements
completed SO there will be no hitch in
any way. The banquet to be served
will be the best the club has rel
given.
Following the banquet to the mem-
bers by a few days there will be a
special Ladies Night" to which the
members will bring their families and
not, only enjoy a pleasant social even
ing with dancing and cards but also
partake of a luncheon.
