A stranger, from Canada, dropped into An
eating house near the the Central depot, De-
froit, on Thursday, and asked permission to
sit by Inc stove moment, s"ying that he was
cut of sorts. His request was granted, but
there was something in his actions which
caused the proprietor OF the place 10 keep
an eye on him. Pretty soon he saw the man
axe out a smali viol, look all around, and
then lift it to his lips BELIEVING maj it wa
an attempt at su eide, the sa Onist juG.-2Sd
TOR the stranger, took him by ho .toat and
brew him down. and choked HIM half 10
death before he learned that the vlol con-
tanned brandy, which the man was using Tor
an aching tooth. The proprietor once had "a
suicide in his house, and had been twice
called out on a coroner's jury, and he didn't
propose to get there again if a little choking
could prevent it.
