Wednesday, July 25, 1906 Page 5 MADDENED MAN TRIES TO KILL P. SALERMO, who was taken into custody yesterday on suspicion of insanity and later released upon the promise of the family to care for him, broke loose again this afternoon at the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. VIGARDI, near Ninth and J Streets. He rushed into the house, where his wife and children were stopping at the time, and brandishing a huge carving knife threatened to kill every member of his family. He chased his wife and children through the house and out into the back yard. He did not go further than the kitchen door and ceased his murderous chase as his wife and children ran out of the house. He disappeared at once, and his wife fearing that he had committed suicide returned to the house to search for him. There was absolutely no trace of the man. Mrs. SALERMO appealed to the police at once to locate her husband and lock him up, as she feared for the life of herself and children. Up to a late hour this afternoon SALERMO was still at liberty.

Stewart Here On a Visit After Absence of Thirty-five Years. T.A. STEWART, a former Sacramentan, but now of Portland, Oregon, was in Sacramento yesterday renewing old acquaintances. Mr. STEWART spent his boyhood days in this city and attended school in the old Armory Hall at Sixth and L Streets. He left here in 1872 and went to San Francisco. He afterward removed to Portland, where he has since resided. Until yesterday he had not been in Sacramento since 1882. I find many changes in Sacramento since I left here," said Mr. STEWART to a Bee reporter. "Sacramento is ap progressive and beautiful city and I am glad to find to so prosperous. So many new buildings have gone in since I have been here that I can hardly recognize any familiar structures. Occasionally, however, I see some old landmark that looks just as it did thirty-five years ago." FARMER TAKES HIS LIFE WHILE SICK Edward BUTTERFIELD, a farmer residing near Franklin, about fifteen miles south of this city, committed suicide this morning by shooting himself in the head. According to the report received by The Bee from Justice E.A. GAMMON of Courtland, BUTTERFIELD was despondent because of illness. He had been suffering from stomach trouble for some time, and had treated with doctors of this city for the complaint. He appeared to be getting better but this morning he suffered a severe attack of nausea, which made him despondent. While his wife and child were eating dinner at noon, he went into a bedroom and fired a shot into his brain. The bullet went clear through the skull and lodged in the bed post. Death was instantaneous. As soon as the shot was fired, the wife, realizing the result, rushed into the room to find her husband dead. BUTTERFIELD was about 30 years of age. He leaves a wife and a small boy. He was a member of the Woodmen of the World. Coroner GORMLEY was notified of the suicide and went to Franklin to hold an inquest this evening.
