is afraid he will not be able to supply
the demand.

A good story of ludicrous attempt
of suicide comes to us from Sigel town.
It appears that a farmer of the above
named town, whose name might COM
mence with the letter P, and who has
been in the habit Of abusing his wife
and family ondivers occasions, deliver
ed some steers in New Ulm, a week ago
last Monday. After having disposed
of his steers he proceeded to invest the
proceeds in lager, but having filled up
to his fullest capacity he proceeded on
his way home. By the time he reached
his domicile he had sobered up enough
to realize what Il fool he had been
making of himself. and in consequence
he felt ugly, and at once began to vent
his ugliness upon his family; who stood
| it as long as they could and then left
the house, and sought refuge in, the
brush close by. Now comes the laugh
able part Of this story. Finding him
self left alone, and no doubt wishing to
gain the sympathy of those he had dri-
ven pell nell from the house, he load
ed his gun. with a determination to
end his miserable life.
The gun being loaded he proceeded
in front Of the house, Invested himself
OF his shoes. placed the but of the gun
on the ground, the muzzle over his
shoulder, and endeavored to pull the
trigger with his big toe. But it was
no go. Either the guard over the trig.
der was too small or his toe was too
large. At least he couldn't get it near
the trigger. Looking around to see if
any Spectators were about. he stopped
down, the muzzle still over his should.
er, and pulled the trigger with his
finger. At the discharge Of the gun
he fell over backwards sober.
