Vancouver, Wash., Sept, 17 Tired of
life, weary at the slowness with which
the dragging yenra moved by. and filled
- with the feeling that he had outlived
' Ma real utility, Oeorge Cole, aged 80
years, went a rifle hall through hla head
last evening and ended hla earthly
troubles.
Colo lived with hi aon-ln-law, F. K.H
Brown, at a ranch near WashougaL In
-. . thin county, and committed hla deadly
act at the ranch. Mr. Cole waa mlaaed
by the family during the afternoon, but
.-It waa not thought that there waa any
- danger In his absence, aa ha frequently
wandered near the ranch house and
through the woods without a companion.
Not until late In the afternoon waa any
thing; suspected, but when one of the
. boys -went to take down the rifle for an
evening hunt he found the! gun was
- gone.
A search discovered the old man cold
in death, aome dlatance away from the
house, Jla had -apparently aeated biro.
' aelf on the ground and had deliberately
placed the muscle of the rifle to hla
head and fired. He had been dead aome
. houra when discovered.
The coroner and an undertaker left
early this morning for the scene of the
' tragedy to make a complete investlga
' tion of -the probable causes that led to
- the suicide. Ill health and feebleness
' resulting from extreme old age are gen
erally supposed to have been the causes
'of Cole's act
MYSTERY DEEPENS
WITH PASSING DAYS
"(Journal Special Service.)
Vancouver, Wash., Sept. 17. No word
baa yet been received concerning the fate
. of the 3-year-old child of George Bas-
aett. who wandered from her home
Monday afternoon. The band of gypsies
that waa thought to have been respon
sible for the baby's disappearance has
been found, but they had neither the
child nor any knowledge of her, aa far
aa could be discovered.
The water of the river near the" Bas
- sett home Is shallow for a long distance
from the shore and It seems almost in
credible that the child could have
' drowned and leave no , trace behind.
When laat aeen the girl waa barefooted
and " bareheaded. She waa scantily
clothed in a calico dress and would prob
ably hive easily succumbed to a night
in the damp woods.
Now that the - river - and kidnaping
theory have been about given up the
only remaining guess la that the little
one strayed Into the woods and, getting
lost, hid nerselr in some nook and per
haps succumbed to the long . exposure.
The peculiar thing about the entire In
cident is that no trace of the child has
been found after three days and nights
of search. Had she become lost In the
woods it seems hardly possible that
the searching parties could not have
found her by this time, especially as
the child did not have strength enough
to wander very far. But nothing has
been found, or heard, neither trace of
baby or word from any one who has
- seen bet. ahdUhe general theory Is that
a mystery lies back of it all, a mystery
that may never be solved.

Vancouver. Wash., Sept. 17. The
chief place of amusement for 'those
who are down town In the evening haa
come to be Seal's shoe store. Tor the
last few nlghta crowds have been gath
ering there to dlacuss the matter of
early closing with the proprietor and
various small boys Imve lingered on the
outskirts to pick up any excitement
that might be laying about loose.
Ivist night the store was the only one
dealing in merchandise that was open
and the lighted windows served as a
beacon for soldiers and civilians, also
as a torch to light the antics of the
small boy. Until a late hour Mr. Seal
discussed the closing question with
those in the crowd and incidentally an
nounced his. flxed determination" to stay
ODen until 8:S0 oYRx'k, he haa also
offered a special discount of 5 per cent
to those buying after 7 p. m.
The Merchants' Protective Association,
an organization of retail dealers, at a
recent meeting endorsed the action of
the Clerks' assocatlon In trying to close
all store-at 7 p. m.. and also announced
officially that it waa opposed to the
business men of the town keeping their
stories open after the hour agreed on
some months ago.
Every evening me rubers of the Clerks'
association distribute bills asking that
citlsene refuse to trade with the storo
that keeps open sfter 7 o'clock and af
ter dark groups of men can be found
discussing the situation that has for
the time taken first place In popular
Interest.
