Mrs. Rogers. Mrs. Kaehne rushed out of
the wOOdshed, jumped INTO the carriage,
and the horses were put to a gallOp to es-

l CAME ACROSS SOME SUICIDE sTATIs-
TICS
which are somewhat noteworthy the
other day. 1t is commonly and naturally
supposed that the number Of suicides has
not only grown with the growth of the
city, but that there are far more in pro-
portion to the population than there used
TO be. This is true as to recent years. In
1850 the proportion of suicides was one in
1850 Of the population; in 1860, it was
one in II 994; In 1870, it was one in $3.50,
and in 1890 it was one in 1898. On the
other hand, but one person in 23,S27 COM
mitted suicide in 1864, while IN 1865, the
proportion was one in 3,017. Why the
mania for self-destruction should have so
ragged that year is mystery, as is the
comparative pauclty of suicides in 1864.
The reasons for suicide are frequently
no reasons at all. A club man, for ex-
ample, blew out his brains, or what
served for such, because when he got
home after merry night, the servant did
not open the door quickly enough for him.
The Normal college girl who poisoned
herself because she had failed to pass an
examination was not much more sensi-
BILE, but there was some method In the
madness of the boy of II, who hung him
self with the strap with which his brother
intended to chastise him.
A melancholy case was that of the
east-side inventor who had exhausted his
means in prosecuting his hobbies. He
was an old soldier, and 2 pension with
back pay was due him. With it he could
not only have sufficient to live upon until
his inventions became profitable, but it
would give him means for bringing them
into being and putting them on the mar
ket. He waited until starvation stared
HIM in the face and then be killed himself.
The postman brought the letter contain
ing the first installnent of his pension
the morning after the night he committed
self-destructiOn- d.

Justice Casey of Staten IsIand Tries 3
Novel Case of Treatment.
From the BROOKLYN linton.

From the BROOKLYN linton.
Justice IL. G. Casey OF Tompkinsville,
S. l., was seated in his Office Wednesday
evening, when a man who said his name
was Brown came in and said. that he
wanted an officer to arrest another man
who was constantly following him about
with shotgun and threatening murder.
Squire Casey saw at once that Mr.. Brown
was in wild state of delIrium tremens.
but that it was not desperate case. The
Squire turned TO Constable McVey, who
was in the room, and ordered him to
go out and arrest the supposed murderous
artllleryman and bring him into the back
yard, where they would saw him in two.
Constable McVey was told quietly by the
Justice to 20 out in the yard and fix some
wood in the sawbuck, which he did. The
rest Of the novel cure for delirium tre-
mems was told by the Justice.
81 had just got in full cord OF unspilt
wood. Constable McVey fixed log Of il
In the sawbuok and led the shiVering Mr..
Brown out TO IL. McVey told the fellow
that there WAS his man lying there, and TO
take the saw and saw him in two. Brown
went at the task with a Will. When be
had got through one log he was gwen an
other one, the Constable remarking as he
adjusted each log that the saw had
slipped.
at was a warm night, and the perspira-
tion rolled OF Brown In torrents. The
whisky was working out OF his sys-
tenn and brain at an equally rapid rate.
But "a man who has taken so much that
he has the horrors must work out a
good deal before he Is aware Of 1t. So
Mr. Brown went on hour after hour, saw
ing log after log. He worked up half Of
my woodpile. i told McVey 10 stand by
and myself aud neighbors, who had been
watching the novel cure, went to bed at
midnight, with Brown still hard at work.
This morning ] was told bV the constable
that his patient had come 20 his seuses
about . O'Clock, and had then gone into
sound sleep, from which il IS likely he
will awake feeling natural and with q
fine appetite. / guess good, honest and
hard work would cure good many other

A GREAT HORSE THIEF.
Capture of n Notorious Western Despe-
RADIO In Nebraska.


OMAHA, NEB., july 30.-Charley
Wright-alias Jack Watts, alias Sim
Wanna notorious desperadO, arrived
here this morning from Miles City, NJ. T.,
in charge of three officers, who left with
him tonight for Rawln, wy. T., where
he is wanted for trial for various crimes.
Wann is one OF the most noted thieves in
the western country. His trail has been
one OF blood through, Colorado, Wyoming,
Dakota and Montana. The crime
for which he is being taken
to Wyoming was committed in August,
1878. He and six other men stopped the
Union Pacific train, and attempted to rob
1t, but We're driven OF. The gang was
followed by Sheriff and posse, aud a
desperate fight ensued. Two of the pur-
suing party We're killed, and two of
Wann's men met a similar fate. Wann
and the other survivors escaped. and fed
the country. A few months later one of
the gang, "Dutch Charley" was cap
tured, and when brought back to Rawline
the railroad men took him from the Off
GERS and hanged him to telegraph pole.
Big Nosed George" another member Of
the gang, was afterward captured. He
attempted to escape from Jail by shooting
the jailer. The people of Rawlins there
upon lynched him from the same pole
from which they had hung "Dutch Char
ley"
Wann was recently arrested for horse
stealing IN Montana, but the authorities
of Montana concluded 10 let him be taken
to Wyoming. 1t is predicted that he too
will be lynched. Wann protests that he
is not the man implicated in the double
murder near Rawlins, but that it was his
brother. Last fall Wann and his Montana
gang of horse thieves killel a number OF
vigilantes who had corraled them in a
hand-t0-hand fight.
