Johnson's wife received a farewell letter from him last night. He had made his will and inclosed it in- the envelope. The family did not know where the man was, and' had no. trace of him until today, when word was sent to Edward Johnson,^a son, that his father had attempted suicide. Johnson, lying on . his cot, told a strange tale to explain -the wound. He was fouifd in his room by the landlady, Mrs. May Richards, with his head ban daged. He said he was sitting alone at De Fremery park.^ when he heard what he thought was a. shot, and felt a heavy blow on the head. The next he knew, he declared, two men- were binding up his temple. There was no evidence in the room of an attempt at suicide, and nobody saw Johnson enter the house and make for his bed. The police have found no body who saw the shooting at De Fremery park. -Johnson lost his right arm in a mine a few years ago, and "he, complained today that he had been unable to get work.

Slack, prominent San Francisco at torney, regent of the University of Cali fornia, clubman and ,'former judge -of the superior court of San Francisco. \ Judge Slack makes no distinctions. Old or young, beautiful or, otherwise, blonde: or brunette, domestic or -suffra gette, they arejall;; alike,, according^ to his experience with the sex. They all talk too much, he says, and he does not like t^'. have a woman In his law offices : because of her garrulous, waysi Furthermore, , he did not: make the mlsogynistic statement in an offhand way, on the curb, or in a spirit of per siflage. He made it under "oath, while testifying-in Judge. Wells' court In the contest of the will of the late Lucie Beebe Butters today... It was the alleged garrulity of Mrs. Butters that first came under, consider ation, but Judge Slack refused toad-* mit that she was any worse or any different from the- rest of womankind in this regard. He was testifying for the proponents of the will, and he told of his extreme reluctance, to have Mrs. gutters in his office because she talked too much. 'He prepared a trust deed for her to sign, at the instance of her husband, the late Henry A. Butters. But he did not want her to come tohis offices and sign It in person! arid it was only, at the earnest solicitation of .At torney J. C. McKinstry that he con sented to receive her. And then one interview had to suffice. . Attorney George W. Reed, for the contestants, tried to make capital out of Slack's testimonj'. ", • "Was it not because she talked In a foolish way, showing a deranged mind, that you were unwilling to talk to her?" he asked Slack. "No," replied the latter; "she im pressed me merely as an average woman. They are all fond of talking." McKinstry was also on the stand to day. Like Slack, he testified; that he Considered Mrs. Butters^to be of sound mind when she made her wilL "Mc- Kinstry drew it up in accordance with her desires, and it was signed and witnessed in his office.
