“HE ALER” £ TRIED SUICIDE. Christian Scientist Found His Patient Dying of Slashes and Went Away. Willlam Nelson, one of the oldest em- ployees of cho Register's office.in the Newark Court-House, Is a victim of Garistian Science and dyspepsia. We was found last night unconscious fm dis mom, at No. 41 Lincoln street, warly with blood streaming from the veins {a bis right arm. He had slashed is arm with suicidal intent while dis- couraged over the cure of his physical | cond¥ttons by Mrs. Eddy's theories. Elmer Veeeland. with whom Nelson lived, had him removed to the City} Hooepital. Nelson was very weak from loss of blood and Is in a critical condition. According to the story told to-day by intimate friends, he has long been a eufferer from chronic dyspepsia, He had tried many so-called cures and had \s called In many physicians to treat him, but obtained no reltet. About six months ago, his friends say, he met a former school chum who is an exponent of Mre. Bddy's theories, and one,of the prominent members of the Firat Church of Christ (Sclentist) in this city. This friend gave him treatment, but Nelson's condition did not improve, Yesterday Nelson went hom after telegraphing for his ChrisMan Scientiv: friend, and went to his room. His visitor arrived at the house at 7 o'clock. Ob- taining no answer to his knock he forced the door. Nelson was lying unconsctous on the bed. the coverings of which were et- urated with diood. In the confusion no one paid attention to the Eddy disciple, and he walked away without essaying his art on the cure of Open wounds or the loss of blood, HURRIED DEATH THAT WAS SLOW.
