SHOT HIS EYE OUT.
Adoiph Reese Makes n Horribly
Bun@IinE Attempt nj Suictda-

st. Paul, Oct. 3.-Adolph Reese n
general service man employed as mes
senger by Gen. Merritt, made a des-
perate attempt at suicide In room 10.
on the third floor of the army build.
Ing, at 10 this morning. He used one
OF the heavy Colts revolvers. 3S-cali-
Der, and only a very poor aim prevent
ed instant death. AS it was he made
a very bungling job of it. He sat In
a chair facing the window and held
the muZzle of the revolver in his
mouth, pointed upward. When he
fired the bullet knocked out two OF
his teeth, went straight upward, cut
ting out the left eye, and, coming out
under the bone above the eye, struck
the ceiling overhead and fell down on
the floor again beside the eye. When
the employees about the building
reached the room a moment later
Reese was hopping his face and en-
~deayoring to wash away the blood
with a cloth, which he dipped in q
pail of water sitting by his side. The
patrol wagon was called and he was
taken to the city hospital, where he
will probably die.
