Lorenz Jazewak an inmate of the coun
ty Jail committed suicide by hanging
himself on Friday night. He had been
committed for four months for wife beat
ing. Friday he was sick and his cell door
was left unlocked for good reasons.
Through the night he prepared a rope
from the bed clothing and went to the
prlvy. lie tied the improvised rope to a
bar across the window and swung him.
self off. The manner of his death show
ed grim determination to effect his pur-
pose as the bar was not so high as to keep
him suspended. Indeed he was on his
knees when found.
He was resident of the town OF
Manitowoc and of weak mind. He had
stated often that his life was of no
account as his wife would much rather
have him dead than alive. Her uncon-
Germ when notified of his deeth shove
that her husband did not misjudge her.
She visited the Jail but stated she did
not care about him but wanted to secure
a deed which he had about him.
They were in very poor circumstances
and for some time the town had to sup
port them. An inquest was held on
Saturday and verdict rendered agree

LIARS.

When person has habit of stealing
fixed upon him SO firmly that it has
grown to be a second nature, it is known
as kleptomania. But if mental scientists
have found term to apply to phenom-
email liars it has not as yet found its way
into general use, and SO the harmless
liar and the Infamous, sneaking, silly, in
sane liar must be content to dwell to,
gether under the same substantive mod
fering degrees of mendacity make proper.
One who is deliberate liar, a snaky,
systematic, unconscionable, Shiny liar,
from whom lies spring as weeds do from
q noisome swamp, lies revolving because
Of their subject matter, disgusting be-
cause of their utter absence of all SEM
blance of truth, such liar may be harm
less but is terribly offensive, and gives
out a moral stencil which makes every
one hold his nose though he may not fear
contagiOn. Lying persisted in, no doubt
ends in mania and unhinges the mind so
that truth is an impossibility. But no
one can even pity the insane liar for her
weakness when habits of falsehood lead
to Authorizations and mental alteration
There should be an lu!n for liars; they

The circus was little one but it had
drawing qualities. The country girl was
in with heated brow and rapid step with
"fellow'' dangling from her hand. The
"pcrcession" was rather tame affair but
the usual crowds lined the sidewalks.
The many swindling institutions which
shadow a circus and are part of it,
were present on Tuesday. There are
rumors that some persons "bucked the
tiger" and paid quite heavily for the fun,
but these reports are not well authenti-
Gated. The circus paid well, very well for
so small an institution and it is to be pre-
sumed every one is satisfied.

QUITE a serious riot was imminent at
PolaclL Hill Oh Sunday last. 1t seems
there are two factions there, the parties
dividing on some question connected
with their private school. On Sunday
the parties seemed to become Infatuated
and some people entered the clergyman s
house at that place with seemingly
hostile intent. The priest sent for the
sheriff. The first thing Mr.. Murphy did
was to order the saloons at the place
to close mp for the day. He then went
among the crowd and took the stones
from their pockets, with which they had
armed themselves. He made the crowd
dispense before leaving. There can be
no question if the saloons had remained
open and thus have the crowd further
intiamed by liquor, that serious riot
would have resulted.
