SUICIDE
OF GIRL
BATTLES

What can have caused the sui
eide Of pretty, 17-year-old Lucy
Eyrish, one of the brightest and
most popular girls of Gig Harbor.
She had no love affairs; she
was apparently happy; members
of her family had not the slight
est intimation that she had
thought of killing herself.
Yet when her father entered
the house yesterday noon. he
found her dead. She was sitting
upright in chair, her head tilted
to one side. On the floor was a
dipper and bottle of poison. She
had drunk some of the poison
with water in the dipper, and left
this note:
Dear Family: | have been
Respondent and have suffered for
some time and have determined
to end it all. Please forgive me,
for | am better off. Do not grieye
over my departure.
That was the only clue to her
action.
Yet just two hours before she
had been doing her usual work
around the house, talking hap
PLY to her father and brothers as
they went to their work at the
t8rn, some distance away.
Coroner Stewart investigated,
but could find no reason whatso-
ever for her deed.

He renewed his charges OF Q

QUAKE!
TACOMA
ROCKED

Tacoma wepk through all the
throes of a real earthquake to-
day.
But outside of a general scare,
and a few minor accidents, the
baby temblor that yibrated
through our midst caused little
real damage.
The shock apparently started
somewhere in the outskirts OF
Tacoma, and spread In every di-
rection.
BY the time 1t reached Seat
tie it was so faint as to hardly
attract attention. 1t made no
record on the official seismo-
graph of the University of Wash
ington.
Elevators stopped.
At 1895 the earthquake hit
Tacoma. Office buildings rock
ed. Elevators in the city hall,
the National Realty building
and the Savage-Scofield build
ing were put temporarily out OF
commission. People In the resi-
dence sections rushed into the
streets.
Mayor Fawcett was talking
with reporter. He leaped from
his seat, grabbed his hat, and
was half way into the city hall
corridor before he realized that
the city hall had not been dyna-
mited.
Thrown From Couch.
A West End woman, i'll, re-
ported to the police by telephone
that the shock had thrown her
from her couch.
Judges Chapman and Clifford
In the superior court we're forced
to suspend court until quiet was
restored.
Police Judge Evans had to or
der Constable Mathies to main
tain order in court until the
quake had subsidized.
At Dupont and South Tacoma
the residents believed an explo-
sion had destroyed the powder
works, until messengers were
sent out to quiet the town.
Puts In Burglar Call.
The desk of real estate man
in the national realty building
rolled half way across the Of
flee.
e. A. McMand, a guest at the
croft hotel, was awakened from
deep slumbers, andp ut in a bur-
glar call for the proprietor, be-
lieving that his room was being
robbed.
Desk Sergeant Lindsey at po-
lice headquarters spent two hours
answering excited telephone
calls from all parts of Tacoma
and northwest. So far as the po-
lice learned, no serious damage
occurred anywhere from the
shock.
