It will be a great day for popular government when the repudiation bait is rejected by the American people. Universal suffrage will get a vindication on the 3d of November which will give it new glory throughout civilization, and disarm finally the skepticism regarding it which presumistic political philosophers, here and elsewhere, have been inculcating late years. The American people will prove that there was no danger in trusting them with the honor of their country. New York Sun. These are hopeful words, and it would seem from recent indications that they are warranted. The enemies of republican government have ever maintained that the American republic contained within itself the elements of its own destruction, and that one of the chiefest of these is a want of integrity among the masses. Hard times and pinch of poverty do tend to make people dishonest, to make them feel that the world owes them a living and they ought to have it without deprivation and without too much struggle in obtaining it. The temptation to become lax in the payment of obligations, to fall into repudiation, national and individual, is very strong, and enemies of popular government, seeing this, exult, and do not hesitate to predict the downfall of the American republic. Europe is now watching the contest going on in this country with tremendous interest. Mr. DeYoung of the Chronicle, who has just returned from Europe, so declares, and the same statement is made by every American who returns from Europe, or sends messages home from The Weekly Gazette.

Europe is now watching the contest going on in this country with tremendous interest. Mr. DeYoung of the Chronicle, who has just returned from Europe, so declares, and the same statement is made by every American who returns from Europe, or sends messages home from CALIFORNIA LEMONS. MAKING A PERMANENT MARKET FOR THEM AT EXCELLENT PRICES The loss to American fruit dealers in Sicilian lemons is reported by Consul Caughy of Messina to have been $2,500,000 during the past year. Consul Caughy makes some very pertinent suggestions and advises American dealers to send their own inspectors to Sicily to prevent the shipment of poor lemons to the United States. The severe frost along the Mediterranean caused a dearth of citrus fruit in eastern markets and resulted in turning attention to California for supplies. There is now a good demand for the California article at excellent prices, and it is very probable that this will continue; and especially if the foreign shipment maintain such practices as reported by Consul Caughy it is possible that the necessity of the American buyer patronizing the Mediterranean markets to any great extent will be obviated. There are good reasons to believe that California lemons have made a permanent market for themselves. For years there has been little or no call for the product in the eastern States. The number of wholesale fruit dealers who now want the sale of the product, the demand the lemons had made in England last year, and the many new refrigerator cars the transcontinental railroads have built purposefully for the transportation of lemons to the eastern States, are facts which are very encouraging. Growers now find their yield in active demand and are prosperous in consequence. The growth of the lemon industry is one of the marvels of Southern California. In 1885 there were less than fifty acres of groves in this region; in 1890 there were 3000 acres, and in 1892 there were 8000 acres. It is likely that the acreage planted to lemon trees will be further increased to 16,000 or 17,000 acres in two or three years more. Rough estimates put the capital invested in California in growing and curing lemons, with all the appurtenances, at $3,-800,000. The fact that the average annual importations of this fruit in the United States in the last five years have been 2,-712,150 boxes, valued at $3,245,000, and that California now grows only about one-tenth of that amount, has given horticulturalists reason to believe that they may in time drive the Mediterranean lemons from the markets, as they have driven out the foreign prunes and raisins. SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS Mrs. Robert Stark, wife of a rancher living near San Diego, died Saturday of gladiators after a week of horrible suffering. She not known how she contracted the malade. One of unique features of a Republican demonstration in Chicago Friday night were immense transmitters stationed at farent points of the march, connected with long-distance telephone wires. As cheerling mobs passed by, their rails McKinley and Hobart were heard by the gentlemen at Canton and Paterson, N.J. According to unofficial though worthy information received at the Department of Agriculture at Washington, German Government has followed up prohibition of the importation of American dressed beef and live cattle into Germany by a new regulation, which practitioners shout out American canned beef from German markets. Recently a new order was issued requiring that all canned beef should be inspected. Compliance with this requirement means the opening of the container containing meat. The order is a practical inhibition. A.M. Heenan, a book-keeper at the Porterium, San Francisco, met his death Sunday while driving with his fiancée Marlinne. In company with Miss Gallows of San Francisco he drove to Springs with a double team. Instead turning the team in place provided the grounds, he attempted to turn it into narrow place on the bank of the river. The team went over the bank and landed on bottom with Heenan underneath. Galway jumped and saved herself as they went over. She was compelled to go mile for assistance, and it was an hour before she body was recovered. At 9:30 o'clock Friday night home James Gardner of Oakdale, Stanislaus county took fire owing to an explosion of a coal oil lamp. Gardner was reading and twelve-year-old son was in bed. When lamp exploded, the father became excited, and extinguished his flaming closing and seemed to forget all about the boy. He rushed out of the house, his clothes and flesh burning. Then he thought son Heenan attempted to rush back into building but was seized by townspoys. When the house was all alfame he gave the struggle and walked away. He seen later making toward the river. Said all was over, and he would kill him. He was taken to town, and became a raven man. The boy was burned to death His remains were found in a corner off his mother's house. ELECS ST., COR. OF IM. & CO., world owes them a living and they ought to have it without deprivation and without too much struggle in obtaining it. The temptation to become lax in the payment of obligations, to fall into repudiation, national and individual, is very strong, and enemies of popular government, seeing this, exult, and do not hesitate to predict the downfall of the American republic. Europe is now watching the contest going on in this country with tremendous interest. Mr. DeYoung of the Chronicle, who has just returned from Europe, so declares, and the same statement is made by every American who returns from Europe, or sends messages home from Europe. This contest is regarded as the crucial test of national integrity, and if the majority for McKinley be decisive, the faith of our nation will be so thoroughly established as never again to be shaken. So great an achievement for our country's honor ought to nerve every patriot to put forth his best exertions for that party which stands pre-eminent for the maintenance of national faith and national prosperity, the Republican party of America. Bryan Hedging. The Chicago platform is making Bryan a good deal of trouble. He started out by declaring that he indorsed every line and syllable of it, but even then he had accomplished the commission of a forgery by which the platform as adopted by the convention was toned down so as not to advocate the abrogation of contracts in violation of a constitutional provision. That sort of proposition was too raw even for Bryan. It being now too late to correct the Chicago platform by committing another forgery, Mr. Bryan is busy explaining away certain provisions that are of a doubtful or more than doubtful character, and, pre-eminently, that referring to the Supreme Court as it shall be "hereafter constituted." He insists that that does not mean that his party is pledged to constitute the Supreme Court differently in order to obtain a reversal of the decision in the income tax cases, but only as it shall be changed in membership by mutations of time, by death, resignation or appointment. Bah! Had that been all that was meant no reference to the Supreme Court need have been made at all. The purpose of that declaration was to carry to the minds of the people a suggestion of a means of circumventing the decision of the court by enlarging and so changing its complexion, and it had no other purpose. It meant that or it meant nothing, and inasmuch as it did mean that, it was revolutionary and dangerous. A Full Legal Tender. In spite of this campaign of education which has been going on for months, there are still some thousands, and perhaps tens of thousands, of voters in California who do not understand that the silver is a full legal tender for all debts public and private, except where there is a special contract to pay in some other kind of money. Those who take Republican papers and read them know this, and those who go to hear Republican speakers know it, but those who depend upon Bryan Democrats and Populists for their information generally do not know it, for it is not to the interests of the nonpolitical organization At 9:30 o'clock Friday night the homestead James Gardner of Oakdale, Stenlandis caught fire, owing to an explosion of a coal oil lamp. Gardner was reading, and when he lamp exploded, the father became greedy excited, and extinguished his flaming clinging and seemed to forget all about the boy he rushed out of the house, his clothes and flesh burning. Then he thought of son. He attempted to rush back into building, but was seized by townsperson. When the house was all alfalfa he gave the struggle and walked away. He said all was over, and he would kill him. He was taken to town, and became a rawhailer. The boy was burned to death. His remains were found in a corner of room. The mother and elder son were church at the time. The mother is nearly crazy. The sudden return of Gen. Bernal to vans from the northern coast of the province of Pinar del Rio, where he was sent by Owley to command the Spanish forces the recent engagements against Autumn Maco, has caused a profound sensation Havana. Gen. Bernal has returned on leave, and has asked to be sent to Spain through disheartened over the reef of the campaign just inaugurated against insurgents in Pinar del Rio. The reports that Maco has thoroughly recordez his forces in the last few months entrenched himself in the most common positions of the mountain fastnesses, and any attempt to dislodge him would be able to result in disastrous failure and whole slaughter of the Spaniards. Too folly attempting to dislodge Maco has been ennounced, Gen. Bernal said, in all the engagements, when from commanding tions the Spanish officers were picked off sharp shooters and the troops lacking less became demoralized, and were slaughtered like sheep. Such a story as Millionaire James Cobb told in San Francisco and praised against Oliver Winthrop, and which so sent the latter to prison for life for kidnapping and robbery, comes now from Chicagomory, proprietor of the Brook Hotel in the same city, a man of position and high reputation—just suicidory; save that the kidnaper planned wisely than Winthrop; executed more fully, reaped a substantial reward for daring crime and went scout free. For than a year Montgomery held his peace kept his pledge of secrecy, and no one his wife and his lawyer has known that was the victim of an astonishing piece villainy and that he paid a large sum money—to be $10,000—to his captive the price of his liberty and personal secret. The Chronicle publishes a story to the feet that a year ago last July Montgomery was lured into a vacant house in the populous part of the city at midday; held a prisoner, and threatened with torture and death, and finally agreed with his jailer the sum he demanded with specified time after his release; swore an oath betraying the robber; and paid the money promised. In an interview upon the request Montgomery says that his reason not giving publicity to the story earlier date was that the kidnaper ended to kill him if it ever became possible and he had his wife believed that he would keep his word. After thirty-six years spent in total mess Mrs. Pnoebe Clymer of Oakland few hours' respite and gazed upon her ren as they knelt beside her bed, only to usually stoken and finally pass from this Last Saturday night a week age—the woman's eyes opened for the first time that great lapse of years, and Friday she breathed her last. Mrs. Clymer was 82 years of age and raised an ideal family about her. Whole middle life it was her misfortune to live with nearness of the optic nerve. Time grew to be a serious matter, A Full Legal Tender. In spite of this campaign of education which has been going on for months, there are still some thousands, and perhaps tens of thousands, of voters in California who do not understand that the silver is a full legal tender for all debts public and private, except where there is a special contract to pay in some other kind of money. Those who take Republican papers and read them know this, and those who go to hear Republican speakers know it, but those who depend upon Bryan Democrats and Populists for their information generally do not know it, for it is not to the interests of the populocratic organization to have the people know the truth, to have them know that since 1878 the Republican party has put into circulation, either actually or by certificate, more than $425,000,000 of silver dollars, every one of which is as good for paying an ordinary debt as a gold dollar. If this fact were known, it would not be so easy to make people believe that the Republican party has "demonotized" silver and "struck down" the money of the poor. That there may be no misunderstanding about this, so much of the section of the law enacted February 28, 1878, which restored the coinage of the silver dollar, as relates to legal tender is here given: There shall be coined at the several mints of the United States silver dollars of the weight which coins, together with all silver dollars heretofore coined by the United States, of like weight and finance, shall be a legal tender at their nominal value, for all debts and dues public and private, except where otherwise expressly stipulated in the contract. What the idle workingman wants is a job. That means money to him. The mints, if they were thrown wide open to the coinage of every character of metal, and were multiplied a hundred fold in capacity, would neither furnish the workingman a job, restore his haunted savings nor give him credit. Nothing, my fellow-citizens, will accomplish that but work, work at fair wages, and that will only come through confidence restored by a wise financial and industrial policy.—McKinley. House Moving.

In other words, the amendment is designed to give the people of cities more independent governments. Amendment No. 6 strikes the word male from the constitution and extends the right of suffrage to women on the same forms as to men.

There are fads in medicine as in every thing else and a "new thing" frequently sells for a short time simply because it is new. But in medicine, as in nothing else, the people demand and will be satisfied only with positive, absolute merit. The fast that Hood's Sarsaparilla has stood its ground against all competition, and its sales have never wavered, but have remained steadily at the top, demonstrates beyond any doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this medicine. The new things have come and gone but Hood's Sarsaparilla rests upon the solid foundation of absolute merit and its power to cure, and its sales continue to be the largest in the world.

Mrs. Clymer was 82 years of age and raised an ideal family about her. While middle life it was her misfortune to be with neuralgia of the optic nerve. Time grew to be a serious matter, and little by little the woman's sight left Years went by, but nothing could be for her. Her case was given up as hopeless. One of her daughters prayed for a return of the mother's sight, and infident now that the few hours in which poor old woman could see, just before came, were granted her as the result of earnest appeals. The physicians threw was due to a general relaxation, in view the eyelids were permitted to fall back the first time in thirty-six years.

"Yes, I can recognize you," she replied and for the first time she afflicted wounded upon those who had always been her. John and Caesar Cummings will hanged, Governor Budd having committed their sentences of death to life imprisonment in San Quentin. This action of the Clerk was not unexpected, as the two who were to have been hanged on September 26th were granted on the eve of day a reprieve until Oct. 30th. The Clerk nor orders that the two men be put to once in the jute mill. The cripple which the Cummings boys were taken been hanged was committed near River August, 1895. They rented a man named T.C. Narrmore and him $300 back rent. One night they coopted a scheme to pay Narrmore his land and then; in company of a Mexican boy; John; the younger brother; pals ramore the money; and then Caesar and Mexican entered the room; bound more and John Cummings hand and robbed them. During the fight more was struck on the head with six hours later died. The Cummings boys and the Mexican were arrested; Mexico turned State's evidence; and copically on his testimony the brother sentenced to be hanged. They had good reputations up to the time of th SHOTS AT THE NEWS. Robert Stark, wife of a rancher living in San Diego, died Saturday glaner a week of horrible suffering. It is known how she contracted the malady.

Heenan, a book-keeper at the Kansas-San Francisco, met his death on while driving with his fiancee at In company with Miss Galloway Francisco he drove to Ferndale with a double team. Instead of the team in the place provided on board, he attempted to turn it in a place on the bank of the river. A went over the bank and landed in Heenan undermath. Galloped and saved herself as the team owner. She was compelled to go a assistance, and it was an hour before body was recovered.

Then he thought of his attempt to rush back into the but was seized by townpeople. The house was all aflam he gave up, juggle and walked away. He was ever, and he would kill himself, taken to town, and became a raving boy. The boy was burned to death. Brains were found in a corner of the mother, and older son were in rest. The reprieve which saved them from the gallows only reached them a few hours before the time set for their death. They had been taken to the death cells in the old furniture factory, had seen the gallows frame erected and the clothes in which they were to be hanged had already been selected. Then, when all hope had been given up, the Governor was induced to grant the reprieve, which has now been extended into commutation of sentence. At the national Republican headquarters in New York on Monday, after a conference of the entire Executive Committee, the following statement was given out: "The election of McKinley and Hobart is an accomplished and assured fact. They will receive 270 electoral votes, Bryan will receive 110, and there are six States, having sixty-seven electoral votes, which are doubtful, but the probabilities at present point to the fact that these sixty-seven will go into the Republican column and be added to the 270 now assured for McKinley and Hobart. This is the status to-day. We have the election, and will hold it. The opposition has abandoned the East. "(Signed) M. S. Quay." The State Board of Examiners held a short meeting on Monday relative to coyote-scalp claims, and passed a resolution concerning the same. These claims are scattered all over the State, and an appropriation by the last Legislature for their payment was vetoed by Gov. Badd on the ground that there was evidence that many of the claims were fraudulent, and he wanted more time in which to investigate them. The Board of Examiners obsaim to have in its possession overwhelming evidence of the fact that thousands of prairie wolves' scalps were shipped into the State and presented to county clorks as coyote scalpe. This information is in the shape of the original boxes in which the scalps were shipped together with the shipping receipts. The board has decided to meet on November 12th to proceed with an investigation of the claims. Gov. Budd says he thinks the fraudulent claims will aggregate $50,000. At Columbia, Tenn., Mary Moore, ja white woman worth $50,000 and owner of 600 acres of fine land, was convicted for stealing six turkeys from a neighbor and sentenced to one year in the penitentiary. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. This is the finale of a most remarkable career, unrivalled in the history of the criminal courts of the State. Ten years ago the woman and her husband, calling themselves Stone, came from Kentucky, bought land in a good neighborhood and lived a secreted life. Immediately she became numerous, incendiary fires followed, rumors spread A dispatch from Lowell Observatory at Flagstaff, Ariz., announces that the astronomers of that observatory have discovered that the planets Mercury and Venus each turns once on its axis during one revolution about the sun, making the day just equal to the year on these planets. They find further that Venus is not cloud covered, as has been reported, but has about it a thick atmosphere, while Mercury has none. President Cleveland is not going abroad with his family at the expiration of his term on the 4th of next March. It was the intention of the President to make a tour of the world, but for many reasons he has abandoned his original idea, and will spend next summer in and about New York. He has purchased sixty acres of land at Hampstead, L.I., and in the early spring a modest little cottage will be built there. It is near the summer home of W.C. Whitney. Domestic reasons will make it necessary for Mrs. Cleveland to spend the greater part of next summer quietly, and therefore the President has decided to build a sung little nest for his wife and family among the exclusives of Hampstead society. Later in the season the President will put in some time amid the quiet Berkshire hills. Loie Fuller is going to China to dance for Li Hung Chang. Li Hung Chang is a very sad old dog. When he left New York it was supposed he took back to China recollections of, but not longing for, the American girl. All this was wrong. One day in the Waldorf, Loie was presented to him. She did not have any electrical effects with her, and she did not do any dance, but the Vice Roy fell a victim to her charms, nevertheless. That night he sent his son and a number of his suite to see the fire dance at the Standard Theater, and report to him about it. Like Li, the suite met Loie and they were here. Now comes the saddest part of it all. Loie is going to China, and at the special invitation of Li Hung Chang. She will take all her paraphernalia with her. The Supreme Court held, in an opinion handed down last week, that a general power of attorney does not grant the power to the attorney to mortgage property. Three men, Barron, Allison and Sackett, became jointly interested in mining property in Shasta county. Allison and Sackett gave Barron a general power of attorney to superintend the property, to "preserve manage sell and dispose of any and all of the said mills, mines or other property in such manner as he shall deem meet and proper for our best interest." The mine did not pay and Barron ran up a bill for supplies and borrowed money from a man named Golinsky to pay the wages of the workmen.

Herman Stump，United States Commissioner of Immigration，sailed for Rome last week under instructions which he received from Secretary Carlisile，and will "consult with the Royal Secretary of the Interior of Kingdom of Italy" in relation to the emigration of Italians to United States。He is also directed appearin before November，and to hurry back before Congress meets to report the result of his mission。That mission is urgent is indicated by the haaste of his departure and by the preemptory instructions of The Secretary。Baron Faye，the Italian Embassador，was long in correspondence with the Treasury Department about the deportation of Italian immigrants，and the Lynching of Italians at New Orleans a few years ago caused an ill feeling that has never been entirely removed。Italy now asks that a properly accredited authority shall appear before its Parliament and explain their workings and restrictions of United States immigration laws，so as to obviate their necessity of deportation and prevent fruitless journeys. George du Maurier，the artist，novelist and author of "Trilby," died at his home in Oxford Square，Byde Park，London，at 2:30 o'clock last Wednesday morning。The end was painless。He passed away surrounded by friends。For days he has been hovering between life and death，at intervals conversing with friends regarding his work。Upon one occasion friends at dieing man's bedside referred to successof "Trilby" as a book and play，whereupon Du Maurier replied: "Yes，它 has been successful，但 popularity has killed me at last."

Saturday night a week ago the poor's eyes opened for the first time in great lapse of years, and Friday morning breathed her last. Clymer was 82 years of age and had an ideal family about her. When in life it was her misfortune to suffer neuralgia of the optic nerve. This in turn to be a serious matter, and then they little the woman's sight left her, went by, but nothing could be done. Her case was given up as hopeless. Of her daughters prayed continually to return of the mother's sight, and is now know that the few hours in which the old woman could see, just before death were granted her as the result of the best appeals. The physicians think it due to a general relaxation, in which adults were permitted to fall back for most time in thirty-six years. Mrs. Clymer's children were about her Saturday it was seen that her eyes were open,athy, mother, can you see?" one of them asks, "I can recognize you," she replied, for the first time the afflicted woman upon those who had always been about and Caesar Cummings will not be held, Governor Budd having commuted sentences of death to life imprisonment at Quentin. This action of the Governor was not unexpected, as the two men were to have been hanged on September 10th were granted, on the eve of that reprieve until Oct. 30th. The Governor that the two men be put to work in the jute mill. The crime for the Cummings boys were to have changed was committed near Riverside August, 1895. They rented a ranch man named T. C. Narrmore and owed 300 back rent. One night they conceived a scheme to pay Narrmore his money when, in company of a Mexican, to rob John, the younger brother, paid Narre the money, and then Caesar and the man entered the room, bound Narra and John Cummings hand and foot robbed them. During the fight Narra was struck on the head with a club six hours later died. The Cummings and the Mexican were arrested. The man turned State's evidence, and privately on his testimony the brothers were accused to be hanged. They had borne reputations up to the time of their arraignment. George du Maurier, the artist, novelist and author of "Trilby," died at his home in Oxford Square, Hyde Park, London, at 2:30 o'clock last Wednesday morning. The end was painless. He passed away surrounded by friends. For days he has been hovering between life and death, at intervals conversing with friends regarding his work. Upon one occasion the friend's at the dying man's bedside referred to the success of "Trilby" as a book and play, whereupon Du Maurier replied: "Yes, it has been successful, but the popularity has killed me at last." One of Du Maurier's friends who was present at his death said: "He died almost as tragically as Svengall at the zenith of Trilby's fame. Svengall became a victim of an affection of the heart. Du Maurier has gone the same way. At the zenith of his popularity the author has succumbed to heart trouble, from which he always suffered, his suffering being accentuated by the constant success of exciting incidents in which the closing months of his life were spent. Checks raised in upon him as his old heart trouble increased. This, complicated by an affection of the lung, took him off." A fortnight ago Du Maurier suffered from a chill, which settled upon his lungs. The family was hastily summoned September 21st, when he was in a critical condition. He rallied and gained strength, and his improvement continued until midnight, when he suffered a relapse. Merchant Rosenbloom of Omaha was refused citizenship papers because he could not name the number of representatives each State has in Congress. Judge C. R. Scott, of Omaha, who has obtained notoriety through his arbitrary course on the bench, denied the application. Rosenbloom was subject to a severe fire of cross-questioning. He answered correctly to the manner of electing the President of this country; the requirements for a foreign citizen to become naturalized; the number of Senators and Representatives in Congress; and the number of Senators and Representatives Nebraska has in Congress, but when asked to name the number of Representatives in each State he was stumped. He offered to name some of them, but this was not satisfactory to the court. Becoming somewhat indignant Rosenbloom exclaimed: "I am only a plain business man, Your Honor, and do not have time to study up all these questions." "That does not make any difference," hastily replied the court. If people don't know any more about the requirements than you do, they should never be naturalized." The court closed the book with a slam, curtly informing the applicant that he had talked too much and could not get his papers. Private communications from Havana announce that two attempts were recently made to assassinate Captain General Weyler. Both attempts failed owing to accident.. The First attempt was made on the evening of September 20th, when the Captain General ordered a cup of chocolate. A girl named Mercedes brought him one containing dynamite, put in the shape of an egg. The chocolate merely covered the top of the bomb. The programme provided for the girl to dash the cup on the floor at his feet; in which case it was calculated, an explosion would follow. The girl allowed the cup to fall from her hands instead of dashing it down, and there was not sufficient concussion to cause an explosion. There were twenty arrests as a result of this attempt. The second attempt was made two nights later when a dynamite bomb was placed in the mattress on which the Captain-General slept. Attached to it were two thread-like wires, which communicated with a battery. In disrobing Weyler's foot became entangled in the wires and this led to the discovery of the plot. At noon on Thursday a notice was posted on the door of the Cape Ann savings bank at Gloucester, Mass., stating that the institution had been closed. Immediately came the shocking news that George J. Marsh, for more than a quarter of a century the trusted treasurer of the bank, as well as treasurer and trustee for numerous large corporations and estates, had shot and killed himself. Late Thursday night the bank officials stated that no shortage could be found in Marsh's accounts with the institution. The trustees of the Gilbert Hospital ce poration, however, tell a different story. It appears that three months ago the trustees discovered that Marsh was insolvent, had been heavily speculating and had lost considerable money. They called on him to produce the securities of the corporation, and Thursday was set as the time when they should be turned over. The trustees of the corporation are also directors of the bank, and the first intimation they had of anything wrong was a note which Vice President Cunningham received on entering the bank. The note was from Marsh, and stated that his dead body would be found in the collar of his summer home. Two messengers were at once dispatched to his place, six miles distant, and when they arrived Marsh was heard walking about in the upper story. A few minutes later, upon bearing shots fired, they went up stairs and found Marsh lying on the floor with a carbine in one hand and a revolver in the other. The top of his head was completely blown off, and on a table nearby was a note saying: "If anyone thinks this is a cowardly act, let him try it."
