JJEQUEATHINO A CALLINd.
IT IS AN Interesting paragraph In
the will of William 13. Curtis, tho
nowspaper correspondent, In
which ho speaks of his ambitions for
his grandson:
I lenvo my watch, my portrait
by Hubert Vos, the scrapbook
. containing my nowspaper let
ters, and n complete list of my
published bookB to William Ele
roy Curtis 2d, my grandson,
with tho hope that lie may share
tho ability and ambition to fol
low In my footstops, to adopt
my profession, and to contlnuo
tho service which I have boon
trying to do by giving tho
world trtio and usoful Informa
tion and publishing tho good
that men do rather thun the
ovll.
So much Is said of tho unrelia
bility of newspaper men of even high
talent, and of tho general purpoao of
tho nowspaper to exploit ovll and
magnify tho misfortunes of life that
It Is Interesting to get Mr. Curtis'
own estimate of his work, and to
look back and seo how, in a long
and successful career, he cxempltlled
his view.
It should not need to bo said that
tho men who hold tho responsible
nowspaper positions are llrst of all
men of tho utmost reliability. Neither
brilliancy, nor energy, nor a noso
for news havo long kopt any mnn In
a post of power If ho was wanting
Jn tho primary virtue of being sure
ho wnn right before ho went ahead.
Neither should it need to be Huid
that tho newspaper Is tho most op
timistic bollovor In tho essential
goodness of the world and tho per
fectibility of human nature.
Tho youngor Curtis Is bequeathed
n great name nnd a grout and bonefl
cont calling. It Is permitted to hopo
that ho will provo equal to both.

Aged Insurance Agent Ex
presses Regret That At
tempt Was Failure.
THE DALLES, Ore., Nov. C. "I'll
do bettor noxt time," was tho remark
made at Tho Dalles hospital by A. A.
Fuller, who attempted to commit sui
cide hero last week, but failed. Fuller
camo to this city a week ago from Ito
seburg, whoro he resided during tho
past few years, and engaged a room
at tho Umatilla House. Whllo sitting
In tho lobby of tho hostlory, Fuller
quietly removed his hat, drew n re
volver, placed It against his right
temple nnd Hred. Tho bullet, how
over, did not follow tho course ho In
tended it to take, merely tenring
away his right eye. Ho will recover.
Despondency Is supposed to havo
been tho causo'of his attempt to tako
his own life. Fuller, who Is an Elk, Is
80 years old. Ho was in the Insu
rnnco business hero nbout 15 years
ago.
WEI) EMPIRE WOMAN.
A. A. Fuller, Who Attempted Suicide,
Woll-Known on Coos Hay.
A. A. Fuller, whoso attempt at sui
cide at Tho Dalles Is told above, Is
well-known on Coos Bay. Ho lived
horo a number of years ngo and mar
ried n Mrs. John Norton of Empire
who secured a dlvorco from him at
Rosoburg within tho laBt year. Fuller
also spent several months hero a year
or so ngo working insurance. On
account of his evident ago nnd his
hobby of playing billiards, ho attract
ed some attention horo. Ho bns been
in rather straightened financial cir
cumstances for some time, it Is under
stood.
