TOOK MORPHINE ON THE BOAT.
A Fomdn's attempted Suicide on Her
Way to Stockton.

a Romans attempted Suicide on Her
Way to Stockton.
STOCKTON, Call, Sept. 18.-Mrs. Jennie
Jones, a young widow who resides in San
Francisco, attempted to commit suicide
last night while on her way to this city by
boat. The cause of the deed was grief
over the death of her husband.
When the woman came ashore with the
other passengers it was noticed that she
was acting very strangely. At that time
it was not known she had made an attempt
to take her life, and those who saw her
peculiar actions supposed that they were
due to insanity. Mrs. Jones wandered
into the southeastern part of town, and
soon a telephone message came to the
police office, saying that a crazy woman
was at large in the vicinity OF the Aurora
street bridge over Mormon Channel
Officer Burnham, who responded to the
summons for help, found the young
woman running to and fro on the bridge.
When questioned she al first seemed daZed,
but afterward appeared to recover her rea-
son and answered lucidly. She said she
was hunting for an acquaintance named
Mrs. Long. 1t was then that Mrs. Jones
told the officer of her attempt to commit
suicide by taking morphine on the boat,
and she said it had produced such a
strange feeling in her head that she could
not find her way about town.
She was taken to the County Jail and
locked up on charge of insanity. After a
confinement of few hours she appeared
to recover her reason and talked nationally.
She seemed to be in good health, but
something appeared to be the matter, and
shortly before noon DR.. Freshman, the
Jail physician, was summoned. The poison
had taken a hold on her, and DR.. Fresh
man sent for DR.. Sergeant to assist him in
the case. An emetic was administered and
antidotes given. She is now thought to
be out of danger.

CHINESE IN THE SCHOOLS.
The City Attorney Says They Must Be
admitted.

STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. 18.-City Attor-
ney Smith this evening rendered written
opinion in the matter of the application of
Chez Go, Chinese boy, to attend the pub
lie schools.
Mr.. Smith holds that under section 1922
of the Political Code Boards of Education
must either build separate schools for the
Chinese or admit them to the regular
schools. Chez Go is determined to attend
school in the face of much opposition, and
the board is between two fires. If the
board refuses to admit HIM he will take
legal proceedings in the matter. This is a
new problem in Stockton, and is especially
hard for the board as they are finding it
difficult to secure room for regular pupils,
and cannot afford to build a new school
house for the few Chinese children here.

mail: that insurance scheme for the
newspaper publishers that the editor OF
the GRAPHIC is at work on is coming
along as fast as possible. As soon as
some minor details have been settled
upon, circular will be sent to every
member of the South Dakota Press asso-

OF which will take sometime. Several
letters have been received asking if
publishers outside of the association
will be admitted to the pool. That is
not the intention now. One object the
writer had in this insurance matter was
to strengthen and help built up the asso-
citation. Every newspaper man in the

Record Shipbuilding.

A recent and notable instance of
expedition in ship construction is
the completion of seven gunboats
for the Spanish Government by
Messrs. J. and G. Thomson. of
Clydebank. These vessels, which
are each of some 800 tons meas
urement, 140 feet in length, and of
about twelve knots speed, are to be
used in suppressing the insurrec-
ton in Cuba; and it was stipu-
lated in the contract that the
whole seven vessels should be de-
livered within three months. The
contract was signed on the 18th
July last, but in consequence of
the Glasgow Fair holidays inter-
vening, the construction of the
boats was not begun until the Goth
of July. The three months ex-
pired on the 10th of October, and
by that time all seven boats were
delivered. The last of the seven
was launched on the Doth of Sep
TENDER, exactly two months after
the first keel was laid.

have practically agreed upon a
traffic pooling arrangement. Us
tensibly this is to maintain steerage
rates. which, through rate wars In
the past, have at times dropped to
a figure that meant positive loss.
There is no reason, however, why
the companies should not be able

the branches of the traffic they con-

vanced after December LIST. 1t is
generally understood that the rate
on the frst-class ships will be $50,
which is $40 more than at present.
