Show I IAIN LEAPS TO 1 ISTiT DEATH H SALT LAKE, April 1. A human jM form, thai of a woman, hurtled from 1 tho roof of the Vermont building to the pavement on South Temple street shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon aft-ernoon and the mortal struggle of the spirit that actuated it was ended. Up to a late hour last night tho body lay in the undertaking establishment establish-ment of Ebor W. Hall, unclaimed and unidentified. In a corner of the room where lay tho body was a pilo of clothing worn hy tho woman at the time of what seems to have been a deliberato plunge to suicide. An inspection of tho clothes revealed no mark by which tho identity of the wearer might be known. They betrayed be-trayed onlj the strucglo of tho wearer against tho fate that finally overtook her. Under tho neat blue plaid waist and Iho navy blue skirt had been worn a varied collection of garments, evidently donned in a fight against the winter's cold. Broken and lifeless, the body lay yesterday afternoon in tho first real spring sunshine of the season, swathed in the many thicknesses thick-nesses of clothing that had been necessary nec-essary to keep alive tho slender fires of the slight frame. The woman was slight to emaciation, emacia-tion, perhaps -10 yoars of age, brown-k brown-k haired and of a fineness of features that suggested she might have been j possessed of beauty in youth. |
