After Talking To Friends, Burpee En

Fitzgerald, Gu., Feb. 18.—W. D.
Burpee, foreman of the Atlanta, Bir
mingham and Atlantic shops, commit
ted suicide today at 'die home by
shooting. A few minutes beforo 1
o'clock he was talking with some of
his friends and after they left he
went up stairs and, lying down on
iho bed, placed the muzzle of a re
volver against his cheat and shot
himself directly through the heart,
dying before anyone could reach him,
No cau*e of tho act has been found.
He leaves a wife and several chil
dren.
The accident occurred while Mr.
Hunter was heating a bottle of crys-
talized carbolic acid. The cone In
the bottle flew out and a quantity of
the acid struck him in the face.
An antidote was promptly put on
the burns, and it was the quickness
of this action which doubtless saved
him from serious Injuries.
