SIT SELF AND
(Nome Nugget)
Kmil Johnson, who died yesterday i
afternoon at Candle as a result of!
self-inflicted wounds with a shot Run
and knife, had been acting queenly for
some time and was under observation
by his neighbors on Candle creek. On
Tuesday night he started up the creek
to visit Lundquist or some one in the
neighborhood of 21 above discovery. :
By telephone they tried to keep tabs '
on him and among others phoned to |
was Lundberg who having learned,
that Johnson had gone up the creek
past his claim went out and found the
deranged man. Johnson made some
sort of a threat at that time, saying,
“You are the man who followed me j
around in Nome,” or something of
that sort. Lundberg started back to
his cabin and was followed by John
son. Lundberg heard the step behind !
him and turned just in time to receive
in the breast a couple of pellets of a
charge of shot which Johnson had
fired. Lundberg then went on down
the creek and Johnson returned to the
cabin he was visiting. Lundquist, or
a man whose name sounds like it,
took the shotgun away from Johnson,
who was much upset by what he had
done. A little later in the absence of i
Lundquist Johnson tried to blow off1
his head with the shotgun and suc
ceeded in shooting off a part of his
left jaw. Then he cut his throat and ,
■ severed the windpipe but not the jug
; ular vein. News of the affair was
phoned to Canada and a team was
sent to haul Johnson to town. He
reached the hospital in the afternoon,
but because of his weakened state the
weakened state the doctor was not
able to save his life. Lundberg is in
no danger as the result of the two
shots that struck him anti was walk
ing about yesterday. The report says
that Johnson was no doubt mentally
j deranged. He was well known here.
