HARRY SUKRFORTH'S DEATH.
Farther Particulars Concerning the Young
. University Student's Fate.
[Oakland Enquirer of last evening.]
Harold Clifton Sukeforth, aged 22
years, a student of the University. of
@Galifornia, Berkeley, was found dead
in bed at his rooming place, 1404 Henry
street, Berkeley, this morning, at 8
o'clock by the landlady, Mrs. GC. A.
Hager. The deceased had_ retired to
bed last night in good spirits, after
“Harry seemed in the best of spirits
yesterday,” said Mrs. Hager this morning. “He did not leave the bouse all
day, but stayed in his room and studied.
Occasionally he would come out for a
brief rest, and at one time romped
about the room with my daughter Josie.
Just before he went into his room for
the night he was joking about his knife
and had a little scuffle with Josie over
it.and playfally took it away from her.
Thén he wentinto bis room. I psked
him if he did not want a coal oil stove
brought in to warm the place up, but
he said ‘no, the lamp willdothat.’ We
all then retired. i
“Yhis morning, at 7:30 as usual [rang
the bell for Harry to get up, but he.did
not answer. In about fifteen minutes
I rangit again and still he did not appear. My daughter and I then knocked’
and called at the door but there was no
answer. Josie then went out and
climbed into the window and let me
into the room and we found Harry
dead in bed.”
Immediately upon the finding of the
body Deputy. Coroner Streightiff was
notified and he took charge of the remains. From all indications young
Sukeforth was taken away by heart disease. There are no indications of\
poisoning or other means of suicide.
Sverything in the room was in an orderly condition,’ showing that he had
gone to bed as usual. On the table
were some books and papers covered
with mathematical work and the oil of
the lamp was three-fourths burned
out showing he must have stayed up
rather late. Everything was in perfect
erder. The cause of death will be
determined by aninquest, the time of
which has not been set yet.
Young Sukeforth was a member of
the class of 1900 and a student in the
college ofsocial sciences. Up to recently he has been first sergeant of
Company H of the cadet corps. A
card announcing his transfer was one
of the papers on the table of his room.
At college he was known as a very
gentlemanly boy who had the respect
of all. He was taking military work
and had completed the prescribed
gymnasium work last year. Professor
Magee, physical instructor, stated this
morning it was his belief that Suke‘forth showed no sigus of heart trouble
at the time of his evamination two
years ago.
In appearance the deceased was sallow and without color. There was
some talk that Overstudy may have
been responsible for bis suddén taking
off but it is believed that organic
trouble was the primary cause of
death.
‘The parents of the deceased, who live
in Nevada City, were. notified by telephone this morning and are now on
their way to Berkley to take charge of} her children is only surpassed by her
the body. Harold was their only son
and very popular at his home.

firmly made up my mind not to ask

Tue venerable Galusha A. Grow of
Pennsylvania, who first went to Congress in 1850, is a living proof that the
American people do not ulways tire
quickly of their public servante. He
has just been re-elected as Congressman-at-large‘by the largest vote polled
by any candidate ia his State, and this
he has done four times in succession.
Mr. Grow, who is now 75 years of age,
was the Speaker of the House of Representatives in the Thirty-seventh Congress and is a fine specimen of the politician of the old school. The Philadelphia papers say that if the Republicans
had nominated Grow for Governor he
would have been’ élected by a vote practically unanimous,

It finally broke and discharged a great

nothing for it. Then the tumor began to

about cures by Hood’s Sarsaparilla and
thought I would try it. Before I had
finished taking one bottle I was much
