 4 years, five months and seven flaws. who since February has been confined to his bed a victim of tuberculosis, ended his sui fering yesterday morning about six o'clock, Thursday, June "A, 1920, by placing a pistol to his breast and pulling the trigger. The bullet tore it's way through his body, passing through his heart and down through the mattress and bed upon which he was lying. It is said he had been in state of seml-con- siousness the last few days.
 Justice of the Peace R. A Jones was called and acting as coronor held an inquest over the body The jury returned a yer dict that the man came to his death from a pistol wound in- flicted by his own hand. It IS reported that his mother was the only person in the room at the tire and she testified that her son ended his life while her back was turned to him. He had asked for the pistol, stating that he wanted to clean it and knowing that it was not loaded and entertaining no idea of his intentions, the gun was handed to him. Knowing that there were four cartridges in his coat pocket he asked for his coat and told his son, Floyd, aged 12, to get him a stick with which to clean the pistol. The boy had just left hls bsdside when the report was heard.
 The deceased was born in Springfield, Mo-, January IT, 1876, the son of w. B. and A. E. Stapp. He was married to Miss MOllie Wilson. of COvinptOn. Tenn, in that city on Sept. I. 1901.

Interesting Ordinances and Official
Publications.


The Chronicle is unusually full
of official matter this week, in
Guiding ordinances for the town
of Colfax, and the official returns
and PRONUNCIATION of school cleo
tons in districts No. 2 and No.
16, at Rock Hill and Georgetown.
The most of our readers will be
interested in these publications,
as will also be the general public
in the most of them. The new
ordinances adopted by the Coltax
town council should.be given par
ticular attention, as they propose
toenforce a numberof regulations
that have been disregarded by
the average citizen.
Owners of automobiles should
post themselves about cut-outs,
display of front and rear lights,
and the necessity of carrying
the license tag required by the
State law. a, little precaution in
these matters may prevent un-
pleasant interviews with the
mayor or district attorney.

Geo. ]. Ginsberg for District Attorney

Geo. ]. Ginsberg for District Attorney
The Chronicle this week is au.
thorized to place the name OF
Georges ]. Ginsberg in its an.
nouncement column as a candi.
date for District Attorney in the
approaching primary election, tt
be held on September IA, 1920.
Mr.. Ginsberg is generally well
known throughout the Thir-
teenth Judicial District from his
practice in the courts, and par
ticularly well in Alexandria, in
whichcity he was born and reared
to manhood. He attended the
public schools of that city and
graduated from the Alexandra
high school in 1911: Then to
prepare himself for Yale Uni
versity he attended the Phillips
Exter Academy at Exter, New
Hampshire. from which he grad
uated in 1913. He entered Yale
and arter two years study there
returned to Louisiana and entered
Tulane Law School at New Or
leans, from whence he graduated
in 1918, being among the leaders
of his class.
He did his bit in the late war
with patriotism and energy, and,
owing to some slight physical de-
feet. has the record of being re-
jected more times probably than
any other man in central Louisi-
ana. By dint of perseverance he
finally got into service, however,
was accepted and served the gov
eminent without pay for nearly
a year. His record oversee as
well as at home is good, and
shows him to be of such material
as will make an energetic and eff
ficent officer. If elected as dis
trict attorney he can be relied
upon to discharge its duties fear
lessly and impartially.
