Left Two Letters
Two letters were left by Hunt
ling. One was addressed to the
proprietor of the Cherry City ho-
tel and the other to Mr.. Rigdon.
In his letter. to the hotel man,
Hunting explained that he would
damage the place some" but
added that he would leave the
proprietor what money he had,
hoping that ''it would in meas
ure compensate"
Hunting first entered the hotel
about o'clock yesterday after
noon, signed for a room and paid
his bill in advance. At the time
he carried a large package, ap-
parently the gun, Ray Myers said
this morning.
Left Hospital Yesterday
I'm going to Grants Pass to-
night, and l won't need the room
to sleep in" Myers says Hunting
told him. He did not converse
with hotel officials later in the
day.
Hunting was discharged from
the tuberculosis hospital yester-
day morning and, at the time Of
his departure, told DR.. G. G. Bel
linger, superintendent, that he
expected to join a sister, Mrs. A.
H. Kerling, at Merlin, Or. Rescr-
ring to this in the note addressed
to the hotel man, Hunting wrote:
Gentleman Bolshevist
IT am supposed to be going to
Grants Pass, Or, or, to be exact,
to Merlin. But to be exactly ex-
act, here is where / stop"
Social, political and economic
problems were exhaustively dealt
with by Hunting in his long let
ter to Mr.. Rigdon. In ii his dict
ion was almost faultless, ana
throughout the lengthy communi-
cation he employed excellent Eng
lish. In the letter he posed as a
gentleman-bolshevist, insisting
all the while that the two terms
were not at all paradoxical.
Now IL the press consents to
take any notice of my death and
this letter, 1t will be only tG
quote such parts Of it as would
make me out an insane radical
for one of their stock lies is that
only an insane person will COM
NIT suicide" Hunting wrote
They also say that only a cow
ard will take his own life, but
will say that'I went through the
third degree in the Knights OF
Pythias with flying colors. al
SO believe I've put up as good a
fight against tuberculosis as the
average person, while under a
handicap"
Asks Square Deal"
Further alluding to the press,
Hunting wrote;
You will notice that you are
only getting a carbon copy OF all
this. The original goes to my
friends, the radicals. So II the
press does misquote me and Will
fy me, they will have a chance
for a come back
No fear Of death was expressed
by Hunting. Obviously with a
view to forestalling any misun-
derstanding he prefaeed his let
ter with:

born near Stockton, Cal, Febru-

Stillm an S
Evidence Is
Admitted
Banker Gains Point
In Suit for Divorce;
Family Physician to
Be Called

New York, May 5.-James A.
Stillman, American banker, today
gained a point in the proceedings
for divorce which he has institu-
ted against the former Fiji Potter,
whom he charges with infidelity
and who in turn makes a similar
charge against him.
After prolonged argument, Ref
cree Gleason admitted into evil
dence a letter alleged to have been
written to Mrs. Stillman by Fred
Beauvais, Indian guide. named as
correspondent and said to have
contained terms of endearment.
Supreme Court Justice Nor
schauser at previous hearings on
alimony motions had barred this
letter and several others accredit-
ed to the guide. on the ground that
they had been presented on the af-
fidavit of the plaintiff who was
not a competent witness in the ac-
tion against his wife.
Other Letters Hang Fire.
When noon recess was taken
Mr.. Gleason had not decided
whether he would admit the other
letters, which the plaintiff is
seeking to introduce into the case.
The Letters are alleged to have
been written 10 Mrs. Stillman in
this country by Beauvais. then In
Canada.
Two witnesses from Buffalo
were on the stand this morning.
One was DR.. Hugh Russell, fam
lily physician. and the other a
Buffalo hotel clerk whose name
was not learned.
The clerk, 1t was understood
had been called in an effort tc
show that Mrs. Stillman once had
engaged two rooms at the hotel for
hersalf and one Of her children al
a time when Beauyais as said e
have been in Buffalo.
Mrs. Stillman agaia attended
the hearing, which was behind
closed doors

CHALIAPfN SINGS, BUT
is NOT AT HIS BEST
Shows He Is Hampered by
Limitations of Concert.

F'eodor Chaliapin, the distinguished
Russian bass, after q long battle with
laryngitis, was finally able to reappear
before his waiting countrymen yester-
day afternoon. when he was heard in
concert in the Hippodrome. Accord
ing to the custom which he introduced
at his first concert, the titles OF his
songs were not printed on the house
programme Those who wished 10 know
what ha was singing were permitted to
buy a little book containing the texts of
all his songs. each with number pre-
fixed. Before singing one Mr.. Chalia-
rin announced its rumber. ane all the
listener had to do was to pick 1t out
in the book.
Naturally Mr.. Chaliapin did not wish
to remain in enforced obscurity, but it
would unquestionably have been better
for him to rest and recuperate a little
'onger. His voice was still foggy. and
his singing far from devoid of evidence
of labor He was also troubled at times
by coughing. 1t was, however. POSSIBLE
for him to deliver songs in manner,
and the audience seemed to he just as
well pleased with him as If he had been
singing his best
This eminent Russian bass has done
much concert singing, but the concert
platform ia not his home. He is ESSEN
tally an operate impersonator. and the
limitations of concert plainly hamper
him. He has difficulty in refraining
from gesticulation. He cannot stand
still. His face works with emotion. But
he sings with much dramatic effect
He attains his ends not entirely by
r.usicai methods. but by subtle and facile
transitions into method of semi-par-
'ando, which has a theatrical quality OF
rndeniable power. Whether the voice
itself retains the musical character
hich II had when heard here fourteen
wears ago cannot yet be determined.
That 1t Is big. powerful and real bass.
though not a profound one. any hearer
could perceive. Mr.. Chaliapin. as at
his first concert, had the assistance of
Josef Stopak. violinist, and Victoria
Roshko pfanist
