LIFE WAS A BURDEN.
So Alexander Sundberger Tried to
Shoot Himself Full of Holes.

Alexander Sundberger, 2S years OF age,
living at III West Park street, tried to take
his own life last evening by shooting
himself In the head. Sundberger
started from his home yesterday morn
ing with the deliberate intention
OF committing suicide. He took a re-
volyer with him and went to Mansfield
with the purpose In mind OF seeking a
quiet spot where the act could be done.
lacking sufficient courage, Sunderger inn
biDed several drinks and then came TO
Pawtucket. He wandered of in the
woods near tho city line and there made
two attempts to kill himself, both OF
which failed. One bullet penetrated
at the side OF one eye, and possibly over
the top OF the head under the scalp, came
out on the opposite side. The second
penetrated the cheek and worked
into the nose. Sundberger was
discovered shortly after the attempt by
two strangers who reported the matter to
the police. He was taken to the Homeo-
pathic Hospital and will recover.
