Determined to Die.

The Moline Dispatch tells the following
story of determined and desperate efforts
to accomplish self>destruction:
James Forber, a young man who has
been DO arding at Mrs. Pearson's on Mines
teenth street near Fourth avenue, made
desperate attempt at suicide Sunday
afternoon, while visiting his brothers
house, near Mrs. Pearsons. The trouble
was he had been drinking so excessively
of late that he was tired of life. The
state of affairs had been understood by
his friends, and every attempt was made
to keep firearms, razors. etc, out OF his
reach. But on this occasion he borrowed
his brothers knife to cut off chew OF
tobacco. His brother stepped out OF
the room for moment, and immediate
ly heard q noise. Returning, he was
just in time to prevent James from
stabbing himself second time in the
left side with the knife. The knife had
on the first blow struck rib, making a
bad although not dangerous wound. A
doctor was called, and left medicine fol
the unfortunate man. During the night
the pat ent, though weak, managed tc
reach tie medicine, and taking bottle
contain ng an anaesthetic, drank dOwr
the entire contents. 1t now began tC
look as though his desperate purpose
had in Iced been accomplished. Tit
doctor was called again, and opined tina
only the fact Of having taken so larg'
dose saved his life. if indeed it il
saved, as he had taken enough to Kill
three men.

Base Rail.

The Chicago Maroon base ball club
spent last night at the Harper, enroute
from Monmouth to Mount Carroll.
The Davenports and Burlingtons left
for the latter city last night. where the
two clubs play today and tomorrow.
The Davenport club has signed two
last years Des Moines and Sioux City
clubs, and Murphy of the Quincy club.
the latter being only borrowed until
Harrington and Kappel are in shape
again.
Manager Hollacher OF the Davenports
is the best manager in the Interstate
league, this year. He has got the least
expensive yet the best playing and best
paying club in the league. Hollacher is
what you would call a practical base ball
man.
The Burlington club is sick of its little
elephant and regards it as a Jonah rather
than Mascot. Last night when the
club returned from its third defeat the
elephant was innocentlY reposing on the
banister in the lobby Of the Rock Island
house. One of the players threw his
satchel at it and then the entire aggrega-
ton kicked the poor stuffed thing around
for ten minutes, showing they could play
foot ball with an elephant, if they can't
play base ball with bat. The elephant
was left at the Rock Island house and the
bell boy will probably dispose of it to
Rocky Mountain Tom" for the trapper's
museum of wild west curiosities.
Davenport took its third straight game
from Burlington yesterday after a hard
struggle. Davenport had the misfortune
to cripple another catcher, Kappel being
| spiked by Meyer. Fusslebach then tool
his place behind the bat. The home
pitchers we're Scoring and Swift, while
Nyce and Shores were in the box for the
visitors and Weckbecker caught. Tht
result of the game was q score of to
in Davenport's favor. The features wer,
the playing and batting of Hollacher an(
Fusselbach. the batting of Gessner AND
the rank fielding of WEIGH. Davenport
is in sore need of reliable centreielder
With this point strengthened the team
will be in good shape. Gessner is no
as strong second baseman as som,
others. but he is splendid batter
q conscientious worker, and is improv
ing in his weak points steadily. Dav
export would run more chances of dom,
worse than better in making any change
on second base.
