THE TELEPHONE IN WAR

 

News has just reached the city
that a couple of days ago a Swede
named Ole Johnson committed |
suicide by blowing his head off |
with a shot gun in the bush near |
Kitselas. Ole Johnson was well
known by many workers in Ru-
pert and vicinity. He was a pe-|
culiar man, and little surprise is |
expressed at his end, Before
shooting himself Johnson went
the round of his friends in a man-
ner which in the light of the later
event was evidently intended: to}
be his last farewell visit. An in-
quest is being held at Kitselas.
Dr. ‘Trainor, who is staying at the
Premier Hotel, has the medical
evidenee in charge, and Proyin-
cial Chief Viekers has been noti-
fied of the occurrence.
