window and. found themselves In the
presenee of the dead.
: The woman lay. as If asleep, on bet
bed, a hand coiled under her plow.
By her side stood a little Invalid table
on which a tray of -tea things rested.
The death-bullet entered her tempfe.
It seemed clear o the coroner's jury
which viewed the scene this morning
that the woman fwaa asleep when the
son carried out bis resolve to kill ber
and end his own life, and ao quietly
did he slip into the roqni. aim the pis
tol at the- temple of hia mother than
' he' did not disturb her sleep and the
bullet brought her insfant death.
It was in the next room that the
young man committed suicide. It was
his bedroom. His body was found
lying on the floor by his bed, cold and
lifeless, a bullet piercing the brain.
He was clad In a nightgown. The bed
was disorderly, as If he had roiled and
tossed through the Iiours of the night,
as the plan revolved in his mind, be

Those who have worked with him
In the offices of Castle & Cooke speak
highly in his praise. andhe news or

them. Many had known him for the

He has lived with his mother, since
they came, here twelve years ago. In
their little home, overlooking the sea,
on Prospect avenue. She had never
been well or strong or. able to care
for herself, but in their life together
required the constant attention of her
son Often, to make her more com
fortable, he remained away from the
' office, keeping himself busy looking
after his mother. He had built a
large glass-covered lanal with a place
for an invalid's chair that the woman
might sit in the sun while he played
for her. :
