ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Miss Sallie A. Turner, a Seam
stress, Attempts Her Life
This Morning.

Mrs. Ann E. Turner, widow, re-
sides with her daughter. Miss Sallie A.
Turner, at 505 West Fourth Street.
The daughter is a seamstress and has
worked for Mrs. Hall and Mrs. Dent
of this city at various times within the
past few years.
This morning Mrs. Turner missed
her daughter and on searching found
ner in an clubhouse with her head bad
ly lacerated and bleeding profuseIy.
She had pounded her head with a
hammer with suicidal intent. She
was taken to the house and ON being
Intercepted why she had done thus, she
replied: "Oh, | have such hard time
of it."
DR.. Abel was sent for who after
making an examination of her injuries
pronounced them probably fatal, as
the skull was badly fractured.
Miss Turner is about twenty-five
years old and bears an excellent name
as to character, industry, &c. She is
a member of the Baptist church and
is said to be a consistent chris
tian. The family consists of the wild
owed mother, Frank Turner, of Col
orado Springs. about twenty-five years
old, AID Turner aged about eighteen
who is in Kansas City. The family
came from Kentucky about three
years ago, and while they are peculiar
and erratic people, they bear a good
name and are clever neighbors.
1t is to be hoped that she will re-
cover and continue to be an ornament
to society and the circle she moved
In.
LATER.
APP. m. to-day Miss Turner was
resting quite easy and perfectly ration
al, talking about her case very meth
odically. She requested DIR. Abel to
see the newspapers and request them
to omit the publication of the attempt
on her life '.just for to-day" seeming
to convey the idea that to morrow Ter
spirit would have taken It's flight be-
yond the clouds and then it mattered
not to her what details they would
publish.
1t is to be hoped that she may re-.
cover-may survive her injuries and
continue to be the worthy and indus
triOus woman in the future, that seems
to have characterized her past life.

The Would Be suIcide.

The condition of Miss Sallie A. Tur-
ner who attempted to take her life on Fri
day morning is practically unchanged tx.
cept that she now desires to recover, and
there is considerable inflammation in the
injury. The skull is badly fractured and
there is an inch In diameter of the skull
bone gone, leaving the brain exposed, so
her recovery is next to an imposslblity-
in fact it would be a miricle. She was
troubled with an attack OF vomiting yes
terday but in the afternoon that ceased
and she rested we'll.
Friday when Miss Turner was found,
DR.. Overstreet was sent for. On his ar
rival at the place the girl had been taken
into the house. The doctor picked up a
piece of paper, dirty and bloody, which
when deciphered read: "If / am found
before l am dead don't try to restore my
life.n

DON'T WAIVER GO TO Sep:


At night when sleep has lowered round the
little snowy bed
And borne away on snowy wings the little
golden head,
Above the clouds and far away to that funny
land of dreams
A merry land OF fancy to infant minds. II
seems
A mother sits and watches, while her heart Is
filled with joy,
As she gazes on the features OF her little, sleep
ing boy.
Then Oft from under covers a chubby hand will
creep,
And tiny voice say: "Muzzer. I don't wan'er
go to seep."
A mothers lullaby is heard; then sleep with
noiseless wings
Steals little one away once more, while watch
full mother sings.
Then comes blissfuI silence; the mother does
not speak,
Though that tear is speaking for her as 1t glis'
tens on her cheek.
She takes the sleeping baby and folds him 70
her breast
mothers arms, SO gentle, will not rob him OF
his rest
And prayer is sent up yonder, that God Will
truthful keep
The lips that murmured: '.Muzzer, I don't
wan'er go to s'eep."
s. II. Gray.

school board.
In the town of Morrill,. Me-. with
only 120 voters, there are thirty-two
widows, owning more or less property.
Miss EVA MCDONALD. we'll known to
organized wOrkingwomen as labor
leader, is interchangeable in her efforts to
secure the rights OF the oppressed fac
tory girls.
Mrs. j. KELLOGG has not only been

OF the best lawyers in the State and has

We are told that women would be in

there than at the post-office or at the

Miss ALICE STONE BLACKWELL mem
tons curious fact in a competition Of
scuiptors in Boston. The matter on
foot was the erection OF a statue to q
distinguished citizen who had recently
died. All sculptors were invited to
send models of the deceased citizen, and
with their name in a sealed envelope.
Miss Anne Whitney's model was de-
cided to be the best, but when her en-
velope was opened the judges reversed
their decision, as it was too much honor
to bestOw upon woman.
SINCE the death of Miss Mary L
Booth the statement has been widely
published that she opposed the move
ment in favor OF woman suff age In
letter written a few months before her
death she said: ri am in favor of
woman suffrage and would vote IL tho
rights were extended to me, for many
reasons. based on the advantages to be
derived therefrom by both sexes One
OF my weightiest reasons for it is
think it would be the surest means OF
securing for women the simple Justice
OF equal pay for equal work. Facts
show that voters alone have their inter.
ests properly guarded. Moreover.
believe that the exercise of suffrage
would train women to higher thoughts
and aims. and INTRODUCED a refining in
huence into politics. so that women
would be made stronger aud men 6aaR
