Every one of Mr. King's Rainier Beach friends scout the theory of suicide. W. S. Danner. than whom no one is better able to judge the dead man, does not for a moment en tertain the belief of Mr. King taking his own life. Many other well-known business men of this section have ex pressed themselves as being unable to unravel the mystery but they do not believe It was a case of self destruction. In speaking of the sad affair, Mrs. King said: "I will not believe the report, and It seems cruel to even intimate such an action to sa'gooi and honorable a man. Mr. King has always been a model husband and to his children he was the most loving and tender of fathers. He hod not x thought outside of his family and uome. I never knew such a home nan. We have never had a dlffer- nce In our marrlal life, He kissed me and the children upon leaving us xnA up in returning. Does a man who ljves his family so devotedly .i.init suicide? Would he deiiber- ely have left wife and children to jattle with the world when bis liv- ng would have made life easy for hem? He has always done well by ib. look at our nome me uouie hat he provided for us. Such men lo not desert their wives and family jnder any stress of circumstances. iy husband did not commit suicide. When Mrs. King was asked wheth- ir her husband was in-bad health, Ae answered: "Just about a year Mgo It was In June Mr. King took a trip to Alaska. He was a passenger jn the Umatilla, when for twelve lays she lay Jammed In the Ice. The ixperlence was a dreadful one. He jvas a nervous man. iue mmm o .hose days when he could get no word to us and feared he might not ve to see us again completely un lerved him. I went down to me lock to meet him upon his safe re urn from that voyage. I was shock id at his appearance, but I did not lare to tell htm how frightened 1 .vas From that lime ne nenucunj omplained of pains In his head and le had bai headaches. Last month hey recurred more often and he rled to be oat-doors as much as pos dble, thinking the fresh air and sun ;hlne would relieve the pain. "Last - Thursday Mr. King mowed he lawn. When he finished he came nto the house and said, 'Lou, feel m lands. They fe.t so queer to me. took his hands in mine and they were coM. I beian tp rub them with ut saying a word for I thought If 1 moke he might think there was iometlilng wrong with him. He had hen a sort of twitching about the nouth and a thin blue line outlined he lips. From bU symptome, I feare i stroke of paralysis. My theory I hat on Uie next day while out in he boat he was taken with a stroke jid lurched overboard. Scott was a ;ood swimmer but If such an acciden iccurred, It will readily be seei how mposslble It would have been foi llm to have saved himself or tried o get aid." Mrs. King was a3ked whether she tnew how Mr. King came to go away mt to Leschl park, take a boat and ;o boating alone, when he was not eellng well. "Why," said Mrs. King gently 'don't you see that is Just what 1 im trying to show people. Mr. King lad to have exercise. He needed a ihange. He wa3 obliged to walk a ood deal. When he started out las Friday afternoon. Donald, our boy ied three and a half years, called tf ter his father, 'Don't forget my peanuts.' Vou will remember that n the pocket of one of the coats the ag of peanuts were found, showing Jiat be had not forgotten. "Mr. King, in my opinion, hid i.c Intention of going out in a boat That was an accident and came from a suggestion, rne Doameeper ' Leschl Park noticed Mr. King playinf wltli some children and laughing and Jesting with them. He was always fond of children. After a while he turned to Mr. King and asked him whether he would like to go out In a boat. It was a lovely day. Mr, .Clng had taken the car up there for recreation. He thought for a mom ent, hesitated, and then decided to so out on the lake. It was not really his Idea. He did not suggest it Therefore, I feel that when Mr. King started out he had no idea that we would not meet again. Something happened to him. Just what, may always remain a mystery. Mr. King was a Mason. The' Masons are try lng to solve the affair and are ren dering the greatest assistance Everything that can be done Is belli? done. They are leaving no stone unturned.'

When asked over the . phone by a representative of this paper as to the truth of his being a party to the at tack, the Joseph business man denied emphatically having had anything to do with it. He said he passed the place of sale twice during the evening and stopped only as a spectator. He said the people were opposed to the sale bacause Wheat had brought the rem nant of his Enterprise stock up there to sell in competition with the home merchants. He said the trouble was caused by some young fellows who went there to "have some fun,'1 but when called down by the auctioneer, started In to make trouble. They threatened to rotten egg the auctlon esr and would have done so if given a chance, said the business man, who also claims the auctioneer was very abusive of the town.
