WEARY OF LIFE.
Two Attempts at Suicide In This City
Last Night

About o'clock last night Otto Geiecke,
a carpenter, boarding at No. 1il0 Preston
avenue, attempted to commit suicide by
drinking an ounce of iaudanum. He called
one of the boarders into his room and
drank the liquid from n glass. Geiecl1e
then pointed to the empty vial and said :
81 have just taken the contents of that
bottle"
When the visitor saw what the vial
was tabled he Immediately summoned Dr.
Boring. who administered the proper anti
dotes and soon had him walking about
The would-be suicide was then taken to
the power house and after a few hundred
volts of electricity had been shot into him
he was able to walk with slight assistance.
His friends then took charge of him.
