Rich Hill, Mo., Jan. 8.—George Sanders, night clerk at the Talmage House, attempted to commit suicide last night by shooting himself with a small pistol. The bullet passed under the scalp from just above the fore- head to the rear cranium and badly stunned him, but it is not believed the skull was fractured andhe will probably recover. His attempt at self-destruction is the result of despondency caused by disappoint- ment in love and discharge from his position. | Mrs. W. H. DeJarnett and A.

From the most liberal estimates, though, his shortage must amount to over $3,000, if any reliance at all} is to be placed on these reports.” Mr. Cain left home a week or ten days ago for Chicago, on what he claimed to be personal business While in that city information reach- ed him that his property bad been attached and grave charges were hanging over his head. Kansas City at once. from the Kansas City Times best ex He left for The following plains his movements in that city: “Cain arrived in Kansas City Wed- nesday morning from Chicago and registered at the Coates house,where he was assigned a room. Nothing more was thought of him by the at taches of the hotel until a telegram came for him late Wednesday after- noon. <A bell boy was sent to the room but received no answer to his knock and reported at the office that Cain was out. About 5 o'clock Dr W. R. Heylman of Rich Hill, an in timate friend of Cain, arrived at the Coates and inquired for him. He was told that the man was not in. Dr. Heylman went to his room, how- ever, but could not arouse anyone - He listened at the door for some minutes, and heard heavy breathing of some one on the inside. He hast ened to the hotel office and told the chief clerk, Mr. Simms, that he fear ed Cain had harmed himself. A porter was sent with Dr. Heylman aud admission was gained to the room. PLAIN ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE. Cain was found lying stretched out on the bedin a stupor. Ona ta- ble near him was a bottle of mor phine. Drs. Porter and Binnie were hastily summoned. They found that the man had taken about fifteen grains of morphine. The stomach pump was used with effect and the would-be suicide was made to drink a quart of hot coffee. About nine o'cleck he had regained conscious ness and yesterday was a'moat en- tirely recovered. It was only the timely medical aid says the doctors, that saved his life and had it not been for the free use of the stomach pump he would probably ‘have been in the care of an undertaker last. night andnot in the custody of the sheriff ” Incompany with Sheriff Colyer the editor of the Tres called on Mr. Cain at the Palace Hotel Satur day morning. We found hita sick in bed and he was being cared for by his faithful wife while his pretty httle daughter was playiug abou: the room. He was very nervous but talked freely of his troubles. He said that the trouble origivated last spring when it was discovered that Sproul, the city collector, was short in his accounts $800 or $990. That parties attempted to implicate him because he was deputy collector. That he had neyer recieved the money and would not pay it. When asked if he was square with the Building and Loan Association of which he was secretary, and with bis partner, John Paine, be said yes, their accounts were perfectly straight. When told of the rumors to the contrary he appeared very much surprised. He emphatically denied that he attempted suicide and said that he never took mor phine in his life and that there was ne morphine in his room at Kansas City. The Review says—Larris Cain is a man of mueh more than ordinary business ability, and has enjoyed the confidence of this community to perhaps as great an extent as dny man in it.

The Advertising Of Hood's Sarsaparilla is always within the bounds of reason because it is true; it always appeals to the sober, common sense of thinking people because it is true; and it is true; and it is always fully substan- tiated by endorsements which in the financial world would be accepted without a moment's hesitation. For a general family cathartic ye recommend Hood’ 8 Sarsaparilla. “Francisco- “Doyle.

P. Francisco. of Butler; Rey. Sam Brown of Kansas City officiating. Attendants: W. E, Owen and Miss Eugenia Britts; Mr. Clark, of Butler, and Miss Sadie Doyle, the bride's sister; Mr. Rose, of Butler, and Miss Minnie Casey. The bride was attired in a rich costume of white silk mull, orna mented with Marechal Neil roses, while the groom though in the con- ventional black, were he in home spun, was rich indeed in winning so fair and accomplished a bride. Miss Addie, as she is known among us, isa graduate of Baird college, class of '91; proficient in music and art, skilled in household duties, and with her charming manner and womanly grace will adorn the home. The groom is a young lawyer of marked ability, a suave and polished gentleman, and will henceforth be banco regis with his queen. He is a prominent democratic politician and was a few years ago quite favorably mentioned for congressional honors in this district. A number of useful and valuable presents were made. The bridal party departed on the 4:25 Bailey train Thursday for Kan- sas City, from whence they go to Butler to-day, where a reception will be tendered in the cosy new home recently fitted up.
