Lewis Lock, Mold Cleaner, Formerly of
the Beuaire Goblet Works.
Lewis Lock, formerly mold cleaner
at the Bellaire Goblet works, at Find
lay, attempted suicide by swallowing a
large amount of laUdanum at his board
ing house at Pittsburg. He purchased
the drug Saturday evening and swal-
lowed nearly two ounces Of it, threw
the bottle in the yard, went up to his
room and laid down to die. Lock gave
his reasons for attempting his own
life that he was "broke," out OF work,
unhappy and wanted to get out OF
the world. He is the young man
who left wife in Wheeling
and married Myrtle Sheppard in
Findlay. The girls father discovering
that he had a wife prior TO marrying his
daughter, had his SOn-in-law arrested
for blgamy. The young man explained
that he had applied for divorce papers
and, as he expressed II, had them all
paid for but So" This he thought
legally entitled him TO marry. He was,
however, bound over TO the Common
Pleas Court in the sum OF 5000 and
went 10 Jail In default. His story was
found TO be true, and he was released,
but the SheppardS would have nothing
TO do with him, the factory was shut
down, he was out of money, aud had
concluded the world had no farther
use for him. But he will get well.

collapse was that they couldn't depend
on some OF the Republican members to
carry the contest through, and that In
addition Mr.. Elliott OF the First
ward had disclaimed the demand for
recount OF the ward, made in his name
Saturday night. There is probably
some truth in all Of these reports, ana
that a canvass OF the whole situation by
the Republican members inclined them
to hold on to the fourteen members

Resolutions Favoring the Restoration of
the Temporal Power Adopted.
NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The fftieth an
niversary of the conservation of Leo XIII
as bishop of the Roman Catholic
church was celebrated by the members
of the Catholic club today. Incident
ally, or perhaps by design, the restora-
ton of his holiness to temporal power
was made the keynote of the addresses
and embodied in resolution expressing
the concerted views of the club on the
rather important question. Archbishop
Corrigan was the principal speaker OF
the evening.
The resolution adopted contains this
paragraph:
"In union with all the loving children
of your holiness, in every nation, we de-
sire to express the hope that the work
of your long and glorious pontificate
may yet bescrowned with the restora-
tion of that temporal independence
which belongs to the holy see by right,
as essential to justice, humanity and re-
ligion, and which is earned for 1t again
by the mighty achievements of your
holiness in the cause of the people,"

PrrTsBURa, Feb. l9.-The worst storm
in years is prevailing throughout Penn
sylvania, Eastern Ohio and portions OF
West Virginia. 1t has been showing
for 4S hours, and from 10 to IS inches of
snow now covers the ground. The wind
is blowing gale and the snow is drift
ing badly. All trains are late, but so
far no accident is reported.
WnKEsBARRE, Pa, Feb. 19.-Tonight
terrific blizzard swept over the city
and vicinity, accompanied by peals OF
thunder and binding flashes of light
ming. The wind was blowing 40 miles
an honr and drove the snow
before it in binding sheets. Pedes.
trians had serious difficulty in reaching
places of safety. The wind worked hav-
oc in exposed places about the city, where
signs were blown down, window glass
shattered and telephone and telegraph
wires prostrated. The storm paralyzed
traffic on the electric roads, and ali
trains running into the city are late.
NEW York, Feb. 19.-A storm broke
over the city at IL O'Clock tonight. For
a time it made things lively for pedes-
trians, who could not see more than a
few feet ahead of them through the
snow, which whirled along on the wings
OF the gale, blowing at the rate of 4(
miles an hour. 1t looked as if the long
expected blizzard brother to New
York's visitor of 1888 had arrived. The
wind is still blowing gale, driving the
snow in binding sheets before it. The
temperature is falling rapidly.

WHAT THE BRIGGS HEREsY CASE
MAY LEAD TO.
II the Decision of the General Presby-

Lane Will Organize a New
Denomination.

New YORK, Feb. 19.-The Tribune
will say in the morning: DR.. Charles
S. Briggs returned from his trip to Gin
cinnati Saturday. He was preceded by
statements that If the general assembly
decided against him, he and Professor
Smith of Cincinnati would secede and
form new church. Incidentally to
the project of the two ''heresy" leaders,
it is said they would command the in
fuence and active support of the Union,
Theological and Lane Seminaries.
They had the assurance, besides, that
they would be supported by controlling
maioritiss in the larger congregations in
NeN York, Chicago, Claveiard and
Cincinnati Mr.. Briggs will not at the
present time throw any light on these
various statements. He would net deny
the rumor nor would he confirm it, even
when urged on the ground of the great
public interest in his plans.
