Edward B. Comstock has killed himself
at Minneapolis. He fired a bullet into
his head and another into his heart.
Mr. Comstock, who was an architect’s
assistant, was a member of a Minneap­
olis National Guard company at the
outbreak of the Spanish-American war.
He did not volunteer, and was called a
coward by his comrades. This prayed
on his mind, and is believed to have
been the main reason for his suicide.
After wondering through th« moun­
tains for 30 hours with a loaded shotgun
intent on suiciding, Alexander Rhobert
son, paving teller of the Wells-Fargo
Bank atSalt Lake, Utah, returned home
and was found in the attic of his home
on Saturday. He has confesg«d that in
the last eight years he had committed
defalcations to the amount of $90,000.
Two other bank employes are said to be
implicated, It is alleged that they lost,
the past three years over $100,000
gambling. More arrests are expected.

age I about 20, examined the sugar ami
ate one of the strychnine crystals, and is
dead. The presence of the strychnine is
a mystery, as none was known to be on
the premises. The deceased young man
was well known and very popular. W.
S. Ragain was recently married to Mrs,
Anna Peterson.
Governor Savage, of Nebraska, releas­
ed from the State Penitentiary the girl
Lena Martin, sentenced there under the
name of Bert Martin, under the belief
that she was a man. The discovery of j
her sex was not made until after she
had been an inmate for nearly a year. .
For several years previous the girl had :
masqueraded as a man, and had eloped ;
with a farmer’s daughter. This woman
showed up at the trial on the charge of
horsestealing with a babe in her arms.
The Governor commuted the sentence
out of pity for the girl’s condition.

“Say, Frank, I ^iw you had a beautiful suit ou yesterday ; tell me which tailor
made it for you. Why, it is as pretty and nobby as art can produce. » 1
“ Well, Dick, I knew you’ll doubt it, but to tell the truth I got it ready made at
the 1 FAMOUS ’ STORE, opposite the P.O.”
“ Well, I declare, if that is a ready made suit ; but, then, you must have paid at
least $25 for it.”
“ $25 is actually the worth of it, but I only paid $12.45, aut^ U,at’s wlisit tempted
me to buy it.”
“ Well, Frank, let me tell you something.
If the ‘FAMOUS’ STORE,
opposite the P.O., sells such fine clothes as your suit at such low prices it will capture
bye and bye the whole trade of Tillamook county.”
“ Frank, if I aint too inquisitive, may I ask you to explain to me the reasons
that enables the new store to sell the best goods for the least of money ?”
“ This is very simple and here you are.”
“ The new store here opposite the P.O. is a branch of L. ROBINSON & co.
(Limited); of Portland, a firm that buys goods for spot cash in large quantities direct from
the manufacturers aud through its own representative, thereby saving three different
profits amounting to from 40c. to 45c. on the dollar.”
“ What do you mean by saving three different profits ?”
“ I mean to say that most of the merchants buy their goods from agents sent by
wholesalers, who in turn get their goods from the jobbers, who again purchase the goods
from factory. On each transaction a profit of between 10c. and 15c. on a dollar is made,
or a total on all the transactions between 40c. and 50c. per dollar. All these profits the
‘ FAMOUS ’ STORE, opposite the post-office, is able and will share with the Public.

One of the curious freaks of the intense
heat that swept down upon St. Pierre
is stated in the report that in one of the
ruined buildings there were found a
number ot glasses that had been fused,
twisted and flattened, hut the wooden
shelf on which they rested was not
charred. In another place there were
found a doll and a small table set of
metal plates : the metal was fused,
but the body of the doll was not burned,
just how such things occurred is one of
the problems that science will have to
work at fora longtime before it finds
the solution.
