TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE.
John Simmerman Clashes His Throat and
Wrist With q Razor.

Wrist With q Razor.
John Simmerman is being treated in Provi-
dence Hospital for wounds of the neck and
wrist inflicted with a razor held in his own
hands. Hs wanted to de- and although he
made good attempt the doctors think they
will be able to save him. Simmerman was a
bicycle dealer and kept repair shop at No.
COB G street, near the site Of the temporary city
post Office. He occupied a room in the house
OF Mr.. ". II. Forester, No. Cos 9th street, just
around the corner from his shop. The wet and
cold weather caused a slack in the bicycle bust
ness and the dealer had plenty of spare time,
which he took advantage of to celebrate in
strong drink. 1t was after midnight
FRIDAY that Simmerman returned to his
lodgings. No one saw him, but other persons
III the house heard him. 1t is thought that he
was under the influence of liquor at the time.
Saturday the ledger did not leave his room and
about O'Clock in the evening Mr.. Lawler, SON
ln-law or AIR. Forester. went to his room and
raped on the door. Simmerman responded
IN n FAINT voice and when Mr.. LAWYER opened
the door he was surprised to see the man lying
in a pool OF blood in his bed. There wero three
gashes across his throat and one cut had in
jured the windpipe. There was also cut
across,hls left wrist. His I'm was hanging out
OF the bed and the blood from the wound in
his wrist had dripped into tin bucket
When first found Simmerman said he
had been fighting negroes and that
they had cut him. but soon aFterward he told
Mr.. Lawler that the razor was beneath his pill
low. and there the blood-stained weapon was
found. The blade was dull and that was
probably the only thing that saved the mans
life.
Policeman Oliver soon reached the house
in the patrol wagon and removed the patient
to the hospital. While the officer had charge
Of fln L., =. i. L. -
In his room was found an empty whisky bottle
This morning the patient was better and, as
already stated, the physicians think he will
recover.

A Japanese Lady Talks Temperance at Mt.
Vernon Church Yesterday.

Japanese Lady Talks Temperance at Mt.
Vernon Church Yesterday.
Mrs. Tel Sono, the japanese temperance
lecturer, lawyer and missionary worker, adj
dressed a large audience yesterday afternoon
at the Mt Vernon Place Church. Mrs. Tel
sono is bright, energetic little woman and
has had rather a remarkable career. She be-
longs to high caste family in Toxic, where
she studied law, and was the first japanese
woman ever to take up that profession.
She told in her lecture yesterday what she
bad suffered from drunken husband. and how
that had inspired her to come to America,
where the women had so many advantages. 1t
was at the annual convention Of the World 8
Woman's G. T. U. in Boston last autumn she
made her first appearance in the field OF tenn
perance workers.
LIKE THE REST OF THE SEX.
Japanese women are pretty much like the
rest of their sex the world over. When Mrs.
Tel Sono came to Mt Vernon Church yester-
day afternoon she was dressed like the ladies in
her audience in well-ftting and stylish black
costume. But she carried small satchel in
which was tucked away her native costume.
To get it all on in the sure privacy Of the Sun
day school room down stairs, with Mrs. La
Fetra as head dresser. and The STARS repre-
sentative to hold the door and keep everybody
out was an easy matter, but to be morally GER
tain that she was looking her best could not be
settled to Mrs. Tel Sono's mind without a look
ing glass. When that was secured few deft
touches here and there finished up the toilet,
and Mrs. Tel Sono looked as she has hundreds
of times On Tokio's streets.
HOW SHE WAS DRESSED.
Her robe of dull gray silk was tied round the
waist by big sash Of pink silk. Her hair was
dressed in the japanese style. Pinned to her
dress was the white ribbon. Instead of the
native sandals her feet were encased in strong
buttoned boots. After Mrs. La Fetras intro
duction Mrs. Tel Sono talked on temperance
IN most interesting way. Her English is q
bit choppy, but her quaint expressions increase
sides being an enthusiastic temperance
exhorter. When a lady was presented whose
friend she knew she kissed her and said:
"Praise the Lord" When she was through
her lecture she held a regular reception, when
all had a chance to greet her. While in this
city she is guest of Mrs. La Fetra.
The First Congregational Church was filled
last evening at $50 to listen to an address by
the eminent japanese convert Mrs. Tel Sono
Of Toxic, Japan. The pastor. Rev. DIR. New
man, presided. and DIR. Bischoff assisted by a
chorus of sixty voices, rendered most exquisite
music.
Mrs. Tel Sono spoke on her life and ex-
perlence for nearly an hour. large collec-
ton was taken up for the benefit of the Chris
tan school for girls, which she will soon start
in Japan.
Mrs. Tel Sono will speak at Calvary Baptist
Church at 1:30 tonight.
