Los Angeles, Cal.,May 5. As he sat in hts office in the state Insane hospital at Highland this afternoon, C. Clarke, secretary" of the Institution, a lineal descendant of William Blackstone, the great English lawgiver, and a politician well known in Los Angeles, saw two accountants enter the room for pur pose of examining his books. He reached into a drawer In his desk, took cat a revolver and nred a shot into his head. He died instantly. This is the second suicide that has occurred at the Southern California hospital within a short time. Will Martin, who killed himself there some e W" time ago, did so because he feared that he was to lose his position. Clarke's suicide today is ascribed toi the fact that he was $3000 short In his accounts and that he feared exposure. The two men who errlved at High land today to examine Clarke's books were G. L. Pardee, secretary, and C. F T Waytnlre. assistant secretary of the; state lunacy commission. Both they and R M. Campbell, the medical su perintendent of the Institution, were in the building when Clarke killed him self. ' Clarke leaves a widow and three children. One of the children, the youngest, jls named after Tom Hays, the bankwreeker. who is now In the Riverside Jail, and Tom Lewis, who, when the child was born,-was a mem ber with Hays of the board of man agers of the asylum.

A Remarkable Testimonial from a Most Intelligent and Trustworthy Lad. " A tumor came on my neck and In a day or two It was as large as half an orange. I was rery much alarmed for fear it was malignant. My friends tried to 'persuade me to consult my physician bat dreading that he would Insist on using the knife, I would not consent to go. Instead, I got Cutlcura Besolvent and Cutlcura Ointment. I took" the former according to dtrec tions, and spread a thick layer of the Ointment on the swelling. On renew lug It I would bathe my neck in very io,iu water muat lUUCUrS BOap. In a few days the Cutlcura Ointment bad drawn the swelling to a head, when It broke. Every morning it was opened with a large sterilized needle, squeezed and bathed, and fresh Ointment put on. Pus and blood, and a yellow, cheesy, tumorous matter came out In about three or four weeks' time this treatment completely eliminated the tumor. The soreness that bad ex tended down into my chest was all gone, and my neck now seems to ba perfectly well. "About fire or six years ago my sis ter had a similar experience, used the Cutlcura Remedies with magical effect. I am willing you should ose my testi monial, with the further privilege of revealing my name and address to such persons as may wish to substantiate .the above statements by personal letter tome."

Word has been received from Ottawa that W. F. King, Canadian boundary commission er, will leave for this city next week to arrange for the dispatch of three Canadian parties of surveyors who are to work Jointly with the Americans in delimiting the Canadian-Alaska bound ary as rtxed by the London award. It is Intended that two Canadian and two United States parties shall survey the country where the bound ary, will cross the headwaters of Lynn canal and Chllkat river. A third Joint party will make a survey on the Stlklne river. Thus the more important dis tricts through which the boundary will pasg will early be dealt with. It Is not the Intention of Mr. King, nor of the American commissioner, Mr. Tillman, to go north this season. The surveys will be In charge of experi enced men under them. White Kraser, formerly of Vancouver but now of Dawson, and C. A. Bigger of Ottawa will have charge of two of the Can adian parties. The total dlstanec to be surveyed is 550 miles, extending from Mt. St. Ellas east and south. The survey will hot, however, be carried the entire distance, Actual field work will be limited to where the boundary crosses rivers and inlets and valleys and plateaus where prospecting and traveling are prob able. The continuation of the delimitation of the boundary line between British Columbia and the state of Washington will also go on. Surveyor J. J. Mc Arthur has left Rossland for the ex treme east of the province. He will continue the line along the border of Idaho after finishing with Washington, The Sacred Opera ."BelsKazzur" Pleases Large Audience at Fisher's Opera House. The presentation of the sacred opera "HeNh issar" at . Flrihers' limt night was pronounced by the hundreds wh attended as one of the very (test mini teur performances ever given In this city, Tht house was crowded and the manner In which the opera was stage and sung elicited the praise of every one. The success uf the entertainment was assuredly a tribute to the ability of Director Robinson," and that gen Vemaa was warmly congratulated for the, charming production. "Belshasvu-" Is an opera of greater Interest to oil .I'tosset) than, ,"Queen Esther," and It was the general ver diet that last night's performance was more susccensful even than the prevl ous play put on by Mr. Hoblivson. The costumes were elegant, the chorus all that could be desired and the drills executed by the pretty girl who took part were quite tip to those seen In professional production. ! Frank Cnrnahan who essayed the title roK was the hit .of the evening, Ills vocal efforts were particularly ap. predated and hi Interpretation uf the IMMt of the licentious king of I ta by Ion was really splendid. The duel scene In which Itelnhnuar Is killed by Cy. rus, king of lvrnla. otherwise Chester Fox. was of special Interest to the audience. Miss HobsotVs sweet, votc was well adapted to the part of Nltocrla, the queen, and as on previous occur slons her effort were very much ap preciated. Mrs. Frank Spittle, as Aria, the Jewish maiden, sang her part to perfection, her solo, "Care-charming Sleep," being one of the mst pleasing of the vocal numbers. This oU was enthusiastically encored. Unfortunately James Johnson, the popular tenor, was III last evening and unable to sing through the entire per formance. Mr. Johnson Is suffering with a severe cold. Hev. H. II. llrown rendered "Behold the Lord of Hosts" entertainingly, and Samuel GUI' solo was also well received. The part of the angel wan taken by Miss Alice Sweeney, whose superb so prano voice was heard for the first time In this city. Miss Sweeney ap peared In n , wo-'tdlnnd scene, with darkened stage and the effect was de. cldedly attractive. Mrs. C. L. Hous ton and N. D. Johnson, as lady antl lord of the court, sang excellently. The opera will be produced ugnln this evening and the house should be crowded. Olve us your order for any kind of printing: plain or artlstla, business or personal, Wt guarantee laUsfau. , tl.m.
