A MISERABLE MARINE.
A Mans Desperate but Unsuccessful
Attempt to Blow his Head OF.

Shortly after the breakfast bell rang at the
marine barracks yesterday morning, and most
of the marines had entered the mess-room,
they were startled by hearing the report Of a
rife fred in one Of the sleeping rooms. Investi-
cation showed that the shot was fred by one of
their comrades, John h. Logue, who had
attempted to take his own life. The weapon
he used was found on the floor beside him. He
had shot himself IN the mouth. How he man
aged to accomplish this with Springfield rifle,
the weapon he had used, was mystery until
the gun was examined by one Of the marines,
who found string tied to the trigger and the
other end attached to his foot. Although so
badly wounded, the sufferer was not iuncon-
scious. He was removed to the Naval hospital,
where the surgeons found that he was proba-
bly, fatally wounded. The interior of his
mouth was torn in shreds, but the bullet. in
stead Of entering his BRAIN as he had intended,
passed into his neck and lodged near the spinal
column. Logue is about forty-three years old.
He came here a few days ago from Pottstown,
Pa, and re-enlisted. He was discharged from
the Marine corps at Philadelphia about a
month ago, and had seen about fifteen years.
service. He had saved several hundred dollars,
and when his term of enlistment expired he
went to New York, intending to go into some
business other than carrying musket for Uncle
Sam. While in New York he was robbed of all
his money; so he came here and re-enlisted.
He had suffered considerably from the effects
of spree and remained in his room Saturday.
When his comrades left him in his room yes
terday morning he appeared to be sick, but
none of them thought of his attempting suicide.
He has no relatives in this CITY,
