SUICIDE IN PORTSMOUTH

Portsmouth, Oct. 3.-Charles
Ross, % years old, shot and killed
himself at 11:1O O'Clock Thursday
night, while calling at the residence
of Miss Marion Quillin, 1914 Effing-
ham street. While in the presence
Of Miss Quillin he pulled out rev'l-
yer, and placing it against his left
temple, ired. He fell over against 4
gas steve and died in few MIMI
ties.
Miss Quillin and members Of her
family were thrown into high state
of excitement by the shooting n
their home.
1t was stated by member of the
young mans family, that he was not
depressed in spirits Thursday night,
and on the contrary, was laughing
and joking.
He went to the Quillin residence
about five minutes to II o'clock, and
was in the kitchen when he fired the
shot into his head.
Friends of his are inclined to dis
c"edit the suicide theory, saying that
there was only one cartridge in the
revolver, and expressing the belief
that Ross was merely playing with
the weapon, thinking that he could
possibly pull the trigger without
bringing around to the loaded cham
Ter.
Miss Quillin is in such nervous
state that the family physician was
summoned to attend her.

HE action on the referendum and re-

the league had succeeded IN gettlhs
through two years ago an amendment

last wear they were successful IN their
odvocation of the optional charter
oct and that he believed the same
influence would be brought to bear
nnon the act permitting referendum
and recall.
II was also stated that the recent
opinion of Colonel Ssgeant upon the
OPTIONAL charter act would be given
consideration by the visiting oiilclais
