Miss Mary Snyder, a nineteen year
old girl, attempted to commit suicide
at the county jail Thursday night
about $3.50. She was discovered just In
time TO save her life.
Miss Snyder has been in the county
Jail for the last four weeks. She was
committed to await trial for the theft
OF clothes on the West Side.
The young woman is subject to fits
and her suffering while they last is said
to be dreadful to behold. Wednesday
she had one Of these attacks and tho
condition of body and mind in which
1t left her is believed to be responsi BILE
for her effort a; self destruction.
MARY oUINNAN's DISCOVERY.
Mary Quinnan. one OF the prisoners
IN the Jail, was on her way from the
prison laundty to her ell in the cor.
ridor Thursday night, when she saw
Miss Snyder suspended inside the cell
door She gave the alarm N, and Deputy
Sheriff Gaffnsy cut Miss Snyder down.
The work Of strangulation was we'll
nigh completed and it was almost an
hour before she revived. Yesterday
Miss Snyder had entirely recovered and
declared she had no recollection of
having attempted to take her life. II
is said that she made similar attempt
some time ago in Wilk- Barre.
SHE USED A sHEET
Miss Snyder went about the work OF
self destruction in a very nethodical
way. She made moose of sheet
which she tore into stripes, fastened it
above the door of her cell and having
inserted her head in the moose allowed
herself to drop.
Had she remained hanging but a
short time longer life would have been
extinct.

That the Improved Order OF Hepta-
sophs know how to have a good time
themselves and share their festivities
with large number OF friends was
shown by the entertainment given In
Music hall night under the auspices Of
Electric City conclave, No. 295.
From the opening Of an Interesting
programme at 8 o'clock until the last
sandwich and swallow OF ice-water
had disappeared In the early hours of
this morning the jovial feeling OF
goodfellowship did not falter nor the
halo Of welcome grow dim. One Of
the most commendable features of the
evening was the fact that the Hepta-
sophians were anxious to share their
good time with the guests who equalled
the mem bers In numbers.
The main hall was decorated with
palms and ferns and filled with mem
bars and guests. while the following
programme was rendered:
A SPLENDID PROGRAMME.
Overture. Professor Guth and Orchestra

The appreciation OF the audience is
perhaps sufficient criterion of the ex.
cellence of the entertainment, which
was followed by a discussion Of a
tempting array Of sdibles in the rear
hall
