ALLEN UPWARD
 TAKES OWN LIFE
London Writer Was Depressed
 at Thought of Failure

London, Nov. IS Hp - Believing himself failure, although several of his works had been declared success ses and with an American publisher requesting him to write series of books, Allen Upward, lawyer and author, is dead. His body was found in his residence near Wimborn with a bullet wound through the heart probably self inflicted.
 Mr. Upward is said to have suf- fered from periodical attacks of se- we're depression. says the Daily Ex- press, and more than a year ago wrote to friend saying the end had come and that when the friend got the letter he would be dead. Shortly afterwards the author was picked up by a roadside exhausted, but recov- cred.
 Upwards best work is considered to have been "The Domino Club" " which was praised by book review CTS and demands for which for nov ing picture and dramatic rights were made. Several weeks ago a new novel by the author appeared. This also was a pronounced success. At the time of MT. Upwards death an American publisher was asking for a series of books with the same central character as "Tho Domino Club" published in the United States under the title of "The Club of Masks"
 For some unaccountablc reason however, Mir. Upward decided that he had failed in his work. Among his papers was found a letter to his agent saying he felt "The Domino Club was not well enough done to

 Sterling was born in Sag Harbor N. r., in 1869. and after having re- ceived an extensive education won international recognition with his plays and poems. A streak of tragedy ran through his life as 1t ran through his works. Seventeen years ago a girl who had loved him took poison and plunged into the sea at Carmel. In 1913 his wife, Mrs. Carrie E. Sterling, divorced him on the grounds that he had a poets temperament" and later she, too, committed suicide
 Sterling's most notable contribu- tions include Wines of Wizardy," "The House of Orchids" "Yose- mite, and "The Binding of the Beast"
 Sterling was to have been host of II. L. Mencken, author and editor, who arrived here two days ago to visit him, but the poets illness fore stalled that. A few hours before his body was found Mencken had pounded on his door, intending to bring him a word of cheer, but there was no answer.

PURNELL HEARING
 WILL TAKE YEARS
House of David King Has Emi.
 nent Legal Counsel

Benton Harbor. Mich, Nov. l 8 P) Extended litigation, featured by suit and counter suit, reaching into months and years, appeared possible here today, following the arrest. Wednesday of Benjamin Purnell, de- posed King" of the House of David, religious colony.
 Attorneys for the aged leader of the strange cult captured in a sur prise raid on the colony early yester- day have issued statements declar- ing their defense of Purnell against charges of individuals and the state of Michigan, will be carried to the highest courts.
 II. T. Dewhirst, former California superior court judge, now a mem Der of the colony, and w. J. Bar nard, of Paw Paw, chief counsel for King Ben declare that Purnell went into seclusion four years ago because he could not get a fair trial.
 Tn view of the attitude of the press three years ago, it would have been not only asinine and rank stupidity but suicidal to have sub- mittod to trial at that time" the statement read.
 The king is now resting among his people following his arrest yes- terday. Bond required of s1a0,0OO on charges of criminal assault pr, : ferred by two former girl members Of the colony secured his release when signed by eight local business men.
 An attempt earlier to secure Pur- nell's release on s50,000 bond was thwarted by the state when 1t ob- tained a ruling that the bond posted by two members of the colony based on colony property was unsatisfac- tory. It was ruled that the colony property is in trust and thus not legal security.
 Besides criminal charges Purnell faces action by the state which seeks to disband the colony.
 Both Dewhirst and Barnard charge that the state police rifled the house raided in the capture of the leader. Phey declare watche-, pictures and other articles are miss ing.
 Members of the colony seriously doubt whether their leader will live to seen the end of the litigation into which the colony and Purnell are plunged.
 Former acquaintances of King Ben who saw him yesterday for the first time in four years were aston ished at the change which the years have brought. Walking with a cane, his once black beard, grey, his proud carriage turned to a halting walk. the leader of the Davidites plainly showed the effect of the years spent away from the outside world.
 A prediction was made in 1903, Dewhirst says, that "our leader would be falsely accused by wo- men,"
 "The House of David does not be- lieve," he said, that members can- not dies but does teach that If the tares are removed from the blood everlasting life will result. There can never be another leader of the
