DEATH OF WILLIAM PENR0SE
Burial Held Tuesday Forenoon Un-
der Auspices Of American Legion

Surprise and regret were universal
ly expressed when II became known
last Sunday morning that William
Penrose had deliberately shot and
killed himself In what is known as
the Old Corner Saloon on Main street
in Eureka. That his death had been
premeditated was evidenced by his
having purchased a rs caliber au-
tomato pistol the previous evening
that did the fatal work. The shot
was fired through the mouth and
death was almost instantaneous.
While those who were with him last
say he was sober when he did the
deed, 1t is known that he had recent
ly been under the influence of liquor.
and is thought to have been mentally
unbalanced at the time.
William Penrose served through
out the great war, going from Butte,
Montana, to Camp Lewis, Washing
ton, from where he was sent with the
first American forces to France. Upon
being discharged and released from
the service he Joined his mother and
family here. and has since been en-
ployed In. the mines of the district.
He was a member of the American
Legion, the Independent Order Of
Eorosfore aud tho Ea0Ioa He was
a genial. pleasant fellow, and his un-
timely death by his own hand can
not be accounted for by his relatives
and friends.
The deceased is survived by his
mother, Mrs. Robert Harvey, and
sister, Miss Annie Harvey of Ruby
Hill; two brothers, John at Seattle,
and Edward in Alaska. He was a
native of Butte, Montana, and aged
32 years, months and % days.
The funeral was held Tuesday
forenoon under the auspices of Eu-
reka Post No. 20, American Legion.
and took place from the Legion head
quarters in the Court house. w. r.
Reynolds read the burial service, and
the hymns. Jesus, Lover of My
Soul" and Beautiful Isle Of Some
where" were rendered by Mrs. c. j..
Travers and Ray Swick. The inter-
ment was in the Masonic cemetery.

Cambridge Drops Fourth
Straight Game

Salisbury defeated Cambridge at
Salisbury, yesterday, by the score OF
s to 3. The Cambridge team was
greatly crippled, and did well to hold
Salisbury so well for, with the eX-
ception OF the second inning, when
Salisbury got a six run lead, she
gave the spectators a game for their
money. The game was the fourth
straight defeat for the Cambridge
team.
The game started well, but Sails
bury bursted it up in the second,
when she scored six runs, on three
bases on balls, and three singles, with
a ielders choice sandwitched in.
This lead gave the SALISBURY team
good deal of confidence. and at no
time was the lead seriously men
aced. The Cambridge boys fought
hard and staged what looked as
though it might be a great rally in
the ninth inning but could squeeze
only one run across the plate.
Cambridge played nards but the
breaks of the game went to Sails
bury. A Ruark fieIded Gensationally
in center field, while Henry played
nicely at third base, E. Ruark and
Henry led the Cambridge attack.
Gene getting three singles out of
four straights, while Henry made two
hits out of four chances.
The local boys are fighting hard
now and hope to close their losing
streak early next week. They play
at White Haven, Monday and Sails
bury comes here Thursday.
The crowd at Salisbury yesterday
was the largest before which the
Cambridge team has played this sea-
son. 1t is estimated that one thous-
and Or twelve hundred spectators
were on the grounds. Why cannot
Cambridge produce such crowds as
this? Are the people of Salisbury
better sports than the Cambridge
people? Turn out next week, and see
some good baseball.
