mestjc troubles of the divorced wife OF
Deputy Sheriff Hickx of Tacoma, cui-
minated last night in deliberate attempt
at suicide which was frustrated only after
long struggle by Drs. Jonas and Wade
and the application OF all known reslora-
tiyes. Mrs. Hicks has been living for
SONG time past at Tyrone Wills, Michigan
street. where she gave lessons fn drawing
and painting. A. few weeks ago Hicks
came over from Tacoma, and after q
stormy scene gained possession OF the
eldest child. with whom ho returned
home. Mrs. Hicks protested that it was
an abduction and threatened legal rro-
ceedings. but was assured by her former
husband that he only wanted TIE child's
company on q visit and would return her.
The circumstance evidently ptoyed on the
wonan's mind.
On Monday afternoon she visited local
druggist. complaining OF ragihg tooth
ache and purchased two ounces OF laulu-
mum. She exhibited \ decayed tooth and
signed the poison book" as u usual I'm

entire contents of the bottle and at once

That the gentleman who assist
ed in intriguing" Kalakaua on
to the Hawaiian throne was kind
enough to overlook the fact that
Kalakaua really wasn't much of
chief, and condescended to
serve as Attorney-G General, later
on as Associate Judge, and finally
as Chief Justice and Chancellor
of the Kingdom, while his broth
er Colonel Judd was kind enough
to take the office as Chamberlain
of the royal household, and to

King should not be forgotten.
We only mention these
facts, because, although well
known to the majority of the
community, they seem somehow
or other to slip the memory of
the Lord Chancellor. and to affect
the accuracy of the information
which he volunteers to certain
foreign newspaper, and their
editors.

before which government aeei-
sion is pending as between Amer
lean Filibusterers as the Queen
and the Hawaiian people.
If, in recognising the Hawai-
ian Republic, Russia has acted
solely upon the represent tions
of her Consul. it is easy to under
stand how grossly that country
has been deceived. But the
cunning and cautious diplomacy
of Russia does not usually perm t
itself to make such stupid
blunder in the face of the dis
reputable facts of the revolt in
Hawaii which are known to the
world.
There certainly is grave cause
for suspicion that this Russian
recognition is the result of over
lures and intrigues from Hawaii,
which are more presumptuous
even than the Japanese inter
ference" which was so hotly
resented by the American press.
The connecting links in this
Russian business if studied close
