Ii Henry e. McKeever, of Chillicothe,
Ohio, can't behave himself when he
comes to this village he'd better stay
away. His last trip down here was on
last Thursday. As soon as he struck
the town he got on terrific bum, which
resulted in his being so depressed that
he concluded TO end his existence. In
a Main-street beer hall he was noticed
to drop powder into his glass, and then
with the remark, "pll be a dead man in
an hour" jumped into his waiting car
riage and ordered the coachee to take
him to a certain Lougworth street
''roost." On his way there the driver,
not liking the actions OF his festive
Henry, summoned Captain Roberts, ol
the Fulton Police District, who ordered
the man taken to Ninth-street Station,
DR.. Mckenzie was summoned, and by
antidotes he brought the would-be sui
eide around all night. His head this
morning is the size of bushel basket.

SELF-EyIDENT.

If two cans are of the same size and both are
full it is elf-evident that one contains as much
by measure as the other, although one being
filled with heavy substance may weigh many
ounces more than the other. Now, as Dr.
Prices Cream Baking Powder Is put up in cans
as large, and hold as much by measure as other
ure (teaspoonfuls). and not by weight, if all
were OF the same strength, one would go as far
as the other; but as DR.. Price's is US effective,
by using two teaspoonfuls as most kinds are
with three, then it is self .evident that there is
one third saved in using his powder. House
wives will find that aside from it's excellence
and healthfulness that two cans Of DIR. Prices
is equal to three cans the same size of the
weighty kinds A trial will prove this, and
also that DR.. Prices True Flavoring Extracts
are the most natural and delicate tlavors made.

Suricide.

Yesterday morning Mrs. Christian
Weik, living on Spring Grove avenue,
was missed from her home, and it was
feared that she had found her way to
Millcreek and drowned herself A thor-
ough search revealed letter, written i
German, and directed to George, her
only son. In it she stated that she
could not stand her husbands treat
ment any longer. Along with the letter
was found $40, which she requested te
be given to her son. Mrs. Weik has
been for long time compelled by her
husband to do all the outdoor work and
all the drudgery. Hisscruel treatment
of her had driven her almost crazy, and
she probably tried to get rid of her sor-
row through death. The creek was
dragged yesterday, but the body was
not discovered. A Footprint of shoe
corresponding to that worn by the miss
ing woman was seen in the sand on th e
bank Of the creek.
