ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
AT the Home Of His Father, Six Miles
Southeast Of Nezperce. Monday
Three Shots Taken Fail.

A few moments before one o'clocl
last Monday afternoon Clifton Dear
shot himself in the neck with d.
caliber rifle, with suicidal intent, at
the home of his father, John Dean,
who resides about six miles southeast
of Nezperce, and inflicted what came
near being a fatal wound.
DR.. Jeffreys hurriedly answered a
summons to the wounded mans bed
side and found him suffering consid-
cradle pain from a second shot. An
inspection disclosed that the ball had
lodged in the neck, but had
evidently penetrated no vital
part, and after dressing the injury
the doctor left the young man
fairly comfortable, and his condition
has since steadily improved until he
now seems to be we'll out of danger.
Clifton Dean is about 25 years of
age and has been making his home
with his father and step-mother, Mr.
and Mrs. John Dean, and attending
to the stock and doing odd chores at
the Kip Johnson place near by. On
Monday his father noticed that he
did not seem we'll, was dispirited and
melancholy, and during the morning
accompanied him to the Johnson
place and assisted in the work there.
They returned home and after assist
ing in the work about the barn for
while, the young man went to the
house, where his step-mother, who
was preparing late dinner, left him
while she stepped out for moment.
1t was then he got the rifle and fred
three shots at himself, the third
missing entirely and the other two
taking affect as stated. When Mrs.
Dean returned to the kitchen she
found him lying stunned on the floor
and gave the alarm.
No cause is assigned for this at
tempt at self-destruction, beyond the
fact that at various times during the
past year Dean has appered to be in
a morose state of mind, apparently
brooding over some imaginary
trouble.

Italian 7own of
AUezzano Mass
Shabeless Ruins
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Naples. AIN. 16-While Avezzano
was reduced to shapeless mass of
ruins by the earthquake, conditions
today at Sora, recall those as Mes
sina in 1908 when the outer walls of
the beautiful palaces remained stand
ing. yet hid desolation and ruin with
in.
OF the handsome buildings at Sora
nothing remains but the outside walls
Under shattered masonry within it is
estimated that from $50 to 500 VIC
Tins lie buried. At the same time,
ing gives rise to hope that many per-
sons may be alive Sheltered in eel
lars or open spaces. Their rescue
will be slow.
The ruins of the Rossi mansion, one
of the finest houses in Sora, are be-
lieved to contain 40 persons. Hope is
entertained many of them are alive,
particularly If they were able to find
refuge in the cellars. The shaky con-
dition of the standing walls makes
rescue work exceedingly dangerous.
In one ruined house a father had
found his 10 year old son. The boy,
still alive was in an aperture of the
masonry which both imprisoned and
protected him. Only his legs remain
ed to be freed and the father was
working frantically when q fresh
earth shock crumbled more of the
walls and the dust and plaster again
buried the child from view. The boy,
nevertheless continued calling, urging
his father not to desert him. The
man worked for hours and the lad
was rescued.
A ghostly sight near Sora is the
cemetery. There the earth seems to
have burst open in straight and reg
ular crevices from which come clouds
of white vapor smelling strongly of
sulphur. Sulphurous water also is
flowing through the cemetery.

IN
S. AFRICA BAD
GERMAN AND DUTCH NEWSPA-
PERs FIND HINTS OF SUCH A
CONDITION IN RECENT REPORT
OF CONSUMPTION THERE.

London, Jan. 16.-In the South Afri-
can governments announcement that
it has been found necessary to resort
to CONSUMPTION for the raising of an
additional army against the insured
tionists, some German and Dutch pa
pers lind hints that that situation in
South Africa is more serious than has
been heretofore admitted. 1
A later dispatch from Pretoria an
nounces that Glasses / and of the
National Reserve in the whole of the
Transvaal have been called out, ex-
cept in the Witwatersrand area and
in the northwest The dispatch states
that all citizens between the ages of
IL and 45 in any other portion of the
defense force may be called upon.
The official communique from Pre-
torfa is not Of an alarmist nature,
and frankly states the reasons for re-
storing to consumption. The commu-
niQue says:
I'm dealing with the rebellion the
Government did not rely on volunteers
alone, and. although the rebellion has
been suppressed, 1t Is clear that. If
the rebel leaders In German Southwest
Africa succeed. the situation may
again become acute.
The Government considers they
would not be justified in relying Who'll
ly upon the voluntary principles to-
ward off the danger which threatens
every citizen of the union. In view
of the danger of invasion, 1t viii oe
necessary to employ much larger forces
than at first intended in order to
destroy the enemy and rebel forces,
SO that they may never again men
ace the peace Of South Africa There
can, therefore, be no distinction be-
tween guarding the borders from in
vasion and the prevention OF invasion
by dealing with the enemy beyond the
borders. The government considers
that the burden of this effort should
not be borne entirely by those who
volunteered their services.
Another reason Tor not relying on
the voluntary principle Is the attitude
Of the rural population There is a
very large section of the Dutch-speak-
ing community with the most excel
lent military qualifications and war
experience. who are perfectly ready
to give their services in freeing South
Africa from the menace of German
militarism. but who have a fundamen-
tai prejudice against the principle of
Volunteering; shortly, their attitude
is that II the government requires
their services, they should commander
them"
