A Mothers Crime,

BALTIMORE, Md. Jan. 25.-Mrs. William
Hall, residing at Elkton, Md, attempted to
kill herself and her six children by poison
ing with arsenic Wednesday. The mother
and two of the children will die. The terri
BILE deed was not discovered until late that
night. Then it was found that poverty
caused the woman to seek the death of her
self and entire f; rily. When the neighbors
entered the humble dwelling a terrible
spectacle met their eyes,. The mother was
insensible, and her children all helpless
from the effects of the deadly drug. Not a
morscl of food could be found in the house,
and the family were scantily clothed. The
mother was too proud to beg, and preferred
death to poverty. No one IN the neighbour
hood knew such a case existed, and, as soon
as the facts We're made public, help was
literally extended. The physicians say the
arsenic was administered in water. The
mother had not enough to kill all the fami.
y, and in dividing it did not give four Of
the children a full dose.
