LAGKED NERVE TO CARRY OUT PLAN Alleged Defaulter Infended fo Kill Himself. & Auburn, Ind., Aug. 9.—Assistant Cashier Frank Nicolai of the City Na- tional bank returned to this city after wandering in the woods without food for three days and nights struggling to get his nerve to the point of kill- ing himself. Upon his return he was promptly arrested charged with hav- ing embezzled $5,000 of the bank’s funds. “I have fought the fight,” said Nic- olai at the jail, “and I have come back to face the charge.” He could not commit sulcide, he said, though he had bought a revolver for that pur- pose. For three years, he said, he had been taking money from the bank. He did not know the total of his defalcations. " Nicolal left three notes in his desk when he went into the woods with the intention of killing himself. One was addressed to a friend and con- tained instructions as to the disposi- tion to be made of his body. The sec- ond was to his flancee and the third was addressed to “the boys.” In this note he warned “the boys” not to do as he had done and said he “had suf- fered hell for three years.” The honor we receive from those who stand in fear of us is not trus honor.—-Montaigne.

STRIKE LIKELY TO SPREAD Printers Throughout the Kingdom Will Be Called Out and Hope of Settle- ment Seems More Distant—Food Situation at Stockholm Shows No Improvement—Grave Diggers Con- tinue on Strike. Stockholm, Aug. 9.—Swedish troops =|in the northern part of the country have mutinied and the government is much concerned. Two regiments, one at Falun and the other at Solleftea, are affected. They are stationed in the northern country, where the labor disturbances first broke out in the timber trade and where the govern- ment has been haunted by the fear that the soldiers’ sympathies were with the strikers. The mutinous troops have been confined to their barracks. The executive committee of the Swedish union has decided to call out all the printers throughout the king- dom. Many of the grave diggers have defied the orders of their labor union to return to work and have rejotned the strikers. The food situation in Stockholm shows no improvement afid the strike continues. The hope that the men would withdraw from their extreme attitude has not been fulfilled. ‘While no serious clashes have yet occurred between the troops and the strikers the leniency shown by the soldiers in the small outbreaks indi- cates clearly that they are in strong sympathy with the strikers and may not prove dependable should a crisis arise. Leaders of the strike are still try- ing to maintain order, but hundreds of the strikers are becoming unruly and depredations are of increasing fury and seriousness. WILL WED JAP MERCHANT Granddaughter of General Corbin to Be Married. Detroit, Aug. 9.—Darhiro Wooyeno, a Japanese art merchant of this city, has taken out a license here to wed Alice M. Corbin, granddaughter of General Henry C. Corbin, U. 8. A,, re- tired. Wooyeno is twenty-nine years old and first met Miss Corbin, he says. at a fete in Cincinnati. Miss Corbin lives in Corbin, Ky. Wooyeno says he will sell out his business here and go to New York to start in busi- pess, as he says his fiancee loves New York. In 1912 he says he intends to take her to Tokio to meet his “papa and mamma” and view the sights of the world’s fair, which will be held there at that time. WORKING IN BUTTON FACTORY Missing Kenosha (Wis.) Attorney Lo- cated in lowa. Sabula, Ia., Aug. 9.—Some detalls.of the absent minded wanderings of for- mer Judge Joseph R. Clarkson of Ke- nosha, Wis.,-who was found working 88 a laborer under the name of John Paul in a pearl button factory, be- eame known after the judge, restored to consciousness of the present, left for his home with John Burns, a friend who found him. little on & farm éighteen years ago after a similar lapse of mind. Bits of the story of Judge Clarkson’s wanderings since he disappeared near- ly a month age have been pieced out by farmers near here, with one of whom he lived for a week until he found employment. Enough has been learned to show that the lawyer walked a greater part of the way and that for days he went without food. The meeting between the judge and his friend Burns, who had followed the clue through three states, was pathetic. THIRTY-TWO LIVES ARE LOST Only Twenty-one Saved From British Steamer Maori. Capetown, Aug. 9.—~The remaining survivors on board the British steam- er Maori, which ran on the rocks the night of Aug. 4 off Slang bay, have been rescued.
