That hard luck and despondency was the cause of the deed is suggested by the man's acts of the previous day, though it is not easy to see why he should get drunk to shoot himself unless he lacked the nerve to do it sober.

California and Florida Oranges at Dughi's. il As a resutt of despondency caused by failure to procure work, Patrick Gorman, aged 74 years, now lies in a critical condition at Hex Hospital from an attempt to take his own life.

Gorman was found staggering along in Fayetteville street yesterday morning about 10 o'clock by Officer Haynes, who thought the man was drunk and started to airest him. He discovered blood stains on his face, and an examination revealed -a bullet hole in his forehead. The wounded man was carried to the station house and a few minutes later was taken to Rex Hospital, where everything possible is being done to save his life. Dr. Hubert Royster is attending the case, and a few minutes cast noon yesterday performed an operation.

The ball entered the center of the forehead and was located just inside the skull between the bone and the lining which surrounds the brain. This lining was not broken. The ball and three pieces of broken skull bone were removed. Dr. Royster said last night that Gorman was getting along very well, and there is hope for recovery, though it is a very serious case.

This is proven by the fact that no powder burns are visible on the outside as would have been the case had it been a few inches or feet away. Had it been a few feet away the shot would have been fatal. It is probable, however, that the man was found a very short time after the shooting occurred, as he was very drunk. ccunty authorities.
