JULIA SULLIVAN OF O'NEILL SUI
CIDES AT CLEARWATER.
DEED UNDISCOVERED FOR HOURS
Had Retired to Her Room In the Hotel
Informing the Landlady That She
Did Not Wish to be Disturbed A
Brother Suicided Some Years Ago.
riearwator , Nob. , May 24. Special
to The News : Miss Julia Sullivan of
O'Neill , committed milcldo In her
rooms In the hotel nt this place yes-
onlay morning hy shooting herself
through the heart with ti revolver ,
Miss Sullivan retired to her' room
yesterday morning about 10 o'clock
after Informing the landlady that she
lid not wish to ho disturbed or called ,
for dinner. A shot was heard BOOH
after the young woman had gene to
lor room , hut no particular attention ,
was paid to It as the hotel people
bought It was outsldo nnd as It Inlet
lot of Infrequent occurrence to hoar
shots tired they were not In the
cast disturbed.
Toward evening , when Miss Sulli
van did not appear and no response
wns heard from her room to muumonH
'rom the outsldo , the hotel people
iccamo alarmed and forced nn en-
rnnco. to the room.
The body of the young woman lay
where It had fnlllcn on the bed after
the fatal shot. She wns undressed
and hcsldo her was a bouquet of ( low
ers , Indicating that fiho had deliberate-
y planned the deed. A bullet hole In
icr loft sldo nnd n pistol that had
teen discharged , lying upon the
loof" Indicated conclusively how the
young woman had met her death ,
rho Antelope county coroner was no-
Ifled of the circumstances nnd will
u'obnbly hold nn Inquest today.
Miss Sullivan left n note saying
hat she was not Insane , but that she
vas simply tired of life n chose this
vay of making her exit from a world
hat had lost Its charm to her.
Miss Sullivan's homo Is about a
mile from O'Neill. It Is supposed that
hero Is n suicidal mania running
hrougtr the family as a brother of

EDITORIAL NOTE
Why and Because.
[ The series of articles which will
appear under the above heading , con
tributed by C. F. W. Marquardt , Neu
rologist and Opthalmologlst , will bo
Interesting and Instructive , so that If
followed carefully the reader will bo
able to extract mental nnd physical
benefits. Some of the propositions
may appear remarkable In view of the
popular view extant ; hut the object
in giving them to the public Is to cul
tivate reasoning powers nnd to show
that popular Ideas are fads , and why. ]
These are the two greatest words
of any language. U Is a proverb
that ; because It l a woman's an
swer. It Is not In this sense that wo
discuss the words , but what the words
stand for. To assume a proposition
is true nnd to Indorse It without In
vestigation or to reject it without In
vestigation would be equally criminal.
Pope said : "Know then thyself ,
presume not God to scan , the noblest
study of mankind Is man. "
The science of neurology sticks to
the poet's principle , nnd studies first
the chemistry of mankind in order
to answer the question , Why is he
here ? Among other things we find
that after being put together accord
Ing to Infinite law ho is sustained
by the same elements found In the
food ho eats. I re Is a combination ol
oxygen , carbon , hydrogen , nitrogen
calcium , phosphorus , sulphur , sodium
chlorine , potaslum , iron , magnesium
and silica. These elements are al
to bo found In the food he lives on
and wo have discovered a method o
examination which discloses whether
the distribution Is normal or abnor
mal and so regulating the diet as to
quality and quantity that when com
blned with the correction of any mo
chanlcal derangement which may ex
1st , nature Is able to restore and
maintain the perfect being.
In our researches wo have no
found In the human composition any
mercury , strlchnlnc , dynamite , or any
of the many chemicals which are so
common In the practice ot old moth
ods. We have reduced the matter tea
a simple sot of dualities. First the
person Is sick or well because par
of his machinery Is out of order , or
because It Is all in order. Second , dls
order can only come from shock o
strain. Third , the resulted condition
will exhibit either above or below
the normal exhibit Fo'urth , while In
the abstract U might bo claimed that
all disorders have their origin In the
nervous system It Is a fact that the
exhibits are by way of a duality , the
nerves and clrculary system. In the
nervous system we have Irritation
and exhaustion , In the clrculary sys
tem we have hypermla and anlmta ; In
ho combination of both systems wo
nay hnvo In addition to the above
lypertropla or atroplu. Hence we
classify our cases as plus or minus ,
ho first means positive , the second
legntlvo. It Is needless to say that
ho first class can bo cared for with
ess Inconvenience nnd oxpcnso than
ho second , because they have greater
recuperative powers. Every person
ild enough to read nnd write should
> ogln the study of self , nnd master
it least enough of It to bo nblo to
udgo between n logical system of
caring for self and Illogical ones.
rho principles upon which neurologist
work lira so simple' nnd HO positive
that they mid analysis to the old
school of diagnosis nnd thus complete
the duality that Wjll take any subject
and produce tlo | reasons for condl-
,16ns , normal or abnormal , whether

How a Clnlt Went Out of Existence.
Some years ago about n dozen uieu
t Oxford formed a sort of "marriage
club. " It was agreed that when any
member was about to be married a
dinner should be held which all within
roach should attend the bachelors to
pay. Man-Inge seemed far away then ,
and the bachelors thought the divided
expenses would be inconsiderable.
Years passed and now and again the
announcement of another marriage
was sent around. They met , coming
from various walks of life soldier ,
barrister , solicitor , Journalist , school
master , man about town and the rest
aunt ; the old Kongs , dug up tlio old
Jokes , until one year It happened that
tlio final bachelor found himself sola
host. A year later the difficulty arose ,
and the tlnal bachelor was given his
dinner by the eleven married men.
And now the friends meet on the an
niversaries of their wedding days and
pay each his own score. There Is per-

ThCro Is rustle and hustle nt the
Norfolk high school today In prepa
ration for the annual commencement
exercises which are to be held Thurs-
lay evening of next week , when ton
young men nnd women of the city
will receive diplomas and leave their

The motto of the class which grad-
latcs this year Is , "Diligence Leads

whlto rose. Instead of the customary
class exercises In which each mem

) C a most exceptionally good ono.
From n glimpse behind the scenes
it the rehearsal last night it wns ap-
mrent that the artistic ability of the
various members of the class fully
warrants their attempting n play , nnd
he progress that has been made oven
bus far shows clearly that the play
hey give will be no ordinary affair.
t will not be toned with usual nmn-
eurlsh style , for n number of the
classmen nro really able actors and
he audience , excepting their natural
ntorest In the various members , may
'orget that it is not attending n pro-
'esslonal show.
The fact that the class is so small
his year Is in no wise an indication
that the attendance of the young men
and women nt the High school Is de
creasing In Norfolk , as next year's
class will be moro than double this
n size larger. In fact , than any pre
ceding. The usual percentage of the
class Is made up of young women , ns
.here are but three young men In the
class of 1005 , with seven young ladles.
