Rashleieh Inquest.

Nasnlelgh inquest.
The inquest conducted by Coroner
Fisher last evening To ascertain the
cause OF the death of the late Robert
\ T. Rashleigh, whose body was found in
the swimming pool at the G. q IL.
baths Wednesday afternoon, resulted
in "A verdict OF death by accidental
drowning. The circumstances related
| by the witnesses were unusual how
ever. and indicate that death might
| have been due 10 natural causes, faint
! ing, heart failure or some other sud-
! den attack, while i'm the water. Ii was
| established that no more than fifteen
minutes elapsed from the time Rash.
! leigh was seen clinging To the edge of
| the pool with his body submerged and
! mis- head above water to the time his
I body was found at the bottom OF the
! pool other swimmers i'm the pool
state enphatically there was no cutlery
and also that after first sinking the
body did not come To the surface. They
assert that whereas in an ordinary
drowning the body fills with water. this
was not true in the case of Rashleigh.
| These circumstances, swimmers
claim, are out of the ordinary and may
indicate that death was due to sud-
den illness while IN the water. They
may also explain the fact that no one
in the pool missed Rashleigh until his
body was found. 1t would be compar-
atively easy for his head to slip be-
meath the water unnoticed. The point
where Rashleigh's body was found was
right at the edge of the pool and no
more than four feet away from the
ladderway dropping into the pool. 1t
is claimed that had his body risen
twice which swimmers claim is an
inYariable rule with drowning per-
sons. he could hardly have missed
grasping either the edge of the pool
or the ladder. In the absence of a
post-mOrtem examination. however.
the jury returned a verdict of death
by drowning.
The Rashleigh funeral will be held
Sunday.

CLEMENCY EXTENDED
TO HARVEST HAND

After spending all the money Es
had made as a harvest hand in the
middle west, Will Johnson. 81 years
old. thought he saw an easy way to
get the price of a meal yesterday and
bought a bottle of whiskey for an In.
dian. He was arrested by Patrolman
Devincenzi as he handed over the
liquor and was placed in the city Jail.
Owing to his youth Johnson was book
ed under a ~disorderly charge, and up
on pleading guilty this morning he
was ordered to leave town within "a
hours and not to come back for a
year. 1t was not the first time he
had ever received a fioater and he
had to be instructed as to what it
meant.
A. Gordon, a"fireman who has had
trouble several times, owing to having
contracted the drug habit when fam
lily difficulties made their appearance
also was ordered out of town for a
year. He was first snapped with the
camera and measured according to
the Bertillon system, however. He
was booked as Observation-Disclosures.

not so awful as might be imagined.
The smoker, however, will have the
