You are only in the way. "Good bye, dear, forgive me." Thus wrote Andrew Biffnizer, a retired merchant, 82 yjears of age, before turning on the gas in h'.s room early today. Mrs. Solomon Hlrsch, daughter of the old man, smelled gas, and trac ing it, found her father breathing his last on the floor of his room. He died before medical aid could be se cured. The poetical farewell was addressed to Mrs. Solomon. Rheumatism, from which he has suffered for the past few years, is supposed to have deranged the mind of Biffinzer. San Francisco, Dec. 23.
