DESPONDENT MAN SENDS , BULLET INTO BRAIN Despondent and blue, with no other reason, apparently, for his rash act, Wilbur Mellick, a farm hand on the Consul ranch, owned by H. G. Prich- ard, blew his brains out Monday morning. Mellick. with his wife, had been working at the Prlchard farm since March, the wife doing house work and Mellick doing farm work. In the morning he decided not to work and went back up stairs to his room with out osHntr hre&kfast. About 10 V 1. .waa o'clock the people In the lower part of the house heard a noise as of some one falling but thought nothing of It; a few minutes later Mrs. Mellick sent her baby girl up to the bed room with food, thinking that Mellick would be hungry. The child's calls for help brought the mother to the scene of death where she found the husband lying In a pool of blood on the floor, the fatal bullet wound In his temple telling the sad Btory of self cUstruetlon. Mellick wls 30 years of age, left no word and gave no warn ing of his intended act. A coroner's Jury sat upon the case and returned the verdict of suicide this afternoon and returned the ver dict of suicide. The funeral was held Wednesday at the Christian church.
