LON NICHOLAS ALLEGED

guessing whether Lon Nichols really
jumped into the Mississippi river with
the intention of committing suicide or
whether some one for joke signed
his name to a note stating that fact.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs Armstrong,
living at 81 West Fifth street, called
at police headquarters with a note
which read as follows:
ST. Paul. Aug. 6, 1896.-Without home or
friends and seeking for position for many
months, l take this means of ending a pre-
earlons existence. Should this be found,
railroad bridge and notify John J. Millar, v.
s., Sioux City, 10. Yours in death,
Lon Nicholas.
The note, written in a plain legible
hand on piece of paper on one side
of which was what looked like a blood
stain, was found in a bottle on Tues
day afternoon near Red Rock. The
finder of the message was Edward G.
Perine, who lives at that place, and
he sent the note to the ST. Paul police
yesterday afternoon by Mrs Arm
strong, who came to ST. Paul. Perine
said in an explanatory letter that he
had found the bottle floating in one
of the wing dams near Red Rock, and
thinking that perhaps the man who
wrote it had a family or friends, who
would be searching for him, concluded
to have the police make an inVeStiga-
ton.
Chief Goss, in speaking about the
supposed suicide, said he hardly
thought there was anything to the in
cident. He had recently been put to
some trouble by letter found in a
bottle which purported to give infor-
nation about a man who intended
jumping in the river, and he was Of
the opinion that the letter was a fake
He said, however, that he would com
municate with the authorities of Sioux
City and ascertain what he could
about Nicholas, and also the man who
was to be notified in case the body
was found. The chief said that there
was something fishy about the bottle
idea, and on its face it looked wrong
man, he argued, who would commit
suicide and want his friends to know
of it would have written to them in
stead of placing a note in bottle and
casting it into the river 1t might do
the chief thought, if Nicholas had been
out in the ocean several hundred miles
from land, but not in this part of the
country.
The name of Lon Nicholas does not
appear in the directory, and tele-
gram sent to Sioux City last evening
making inquiries concerning Nicholas
and Millar brought the following infor-
nation:
DR.. John J. Millar, " S., is not in the
city, but none of his associates or employees
know or ever heard of Lon Nicholas He is
not known to the police or the sheriff's force
and his name has not appeared in the direc-
tory"

BLUES SHUT OUT.
Prettfest Game of the Season Played
mt Kansas City.

Special TO the Globe.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 12.-When
the Millers reached Kansas City, VIII
mot said he expected to take three
straight, but Manning laughed at him.
1t was Wilmot's turn to laugh today,
for not only did his team make it three
straight, but gave the Blues their
first shut out of the season after
close and extremely exciting contest
by the score of 1 to nothing. The Blues
threw away the game by misera bic
base running, having good chances for
runs in five of the nine innings, which
they failed to improve, no less than
three different times, where a sacrifice
hit would have won the game for the
Blues, it was not forthcoming and
the batters persisted on easy fly balls
in trying to hit it out of the lot. The
fielding Of both teams was simply per-
feet, not a mistake of any kind being
made on either side. Hutchinson gave
two bases on balls while Callahan did,
not allow anyone to reach first except
on hits; q fine throw from right field

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug 1.-TWO
games were played by the Brewers
and Apostles today and each won one.
In the seventh inning of the first game
Billy George and Umpire Snyder all
but came to blows, and George was
put out of the game and off the
grounds. A few minutes later Stratton
was hit by pitched ball, but he was
not allowed to take his base. An ar
gument followed and the game was
finally given to Milwaukee by score
of 9 to 0. The second game was won
by st. Paul by a pretty finish. Up to
the seventh inning in the first game
the visitors could. not do anything
with the pitching of Jones, and were
not. in the game. One run was the
best they could make and there was
little possibility of their getting more
from the way in. which Jones was
shooting them over the plate, as six
hits were all they could get, and they
were scattered. Mullane was hit at
the right time by the local men, and

work. Both teams played we'll in the

THE SECOND GAME.
After rest of five minutes the second
game was Started with Rettger in the
box for the Brewers and Denzer for
the visitors 1t was a pretty struggle
and battle between the pitchers from
the start, and Rettger lost his own
game. 1t happened in the tenth inning.
There were two men out and one on
third base. The next batter made
bunt to Rettger, which, if he had
caught, would have retired the side
Instead he dropped the ball and in his
anxiety to get hold of the sphere he
fumbled it all the more. When he
finally succeeded in getting it the
men were safe on base Then Comiskey
substituted Pickett for Stratton and he
made a hit, bringing in the winning
run. The game abounded in brilliant
playing. Milwaukee secured one in the
first on a base on balls and Whites
double; two were made in the fourth
on base on balls, an error by Kraus
and a double by Spear. That was the
end of the run getting. ST. Paul scored
one in the first on a base on balls,
passed ball and single. Another was
made in the fourth when Glasscock
sent the ball over the left field fence
for homer. The tie was made in the
ninth on two-bagger and a single.
Then came the tenth and ali was over
The pitching of Denzer was a feature
He was steady at all times and had

SAVED HIS LIFE.
Young CycIist Caught Up by a Street
Car Fender

John Hanson, young visitor to the
city, had an exciting experience yester-
day and considers himself extremely
lucky that he was not manned for life.
Hanson was riding his bike across the
Wabasha street bridge behind an cleo
trio car. He concluded that he could
make better time ahead instead of in
the rear of the car and turned out in
tending to scorch ahead. AS he did so,
and without noticing IT.. there was
another car coming in the opposite
direction from which he was going

bicyclist was in, and grasping the lever
he turned off the current and set the

ever, struck Hanson's bike and lifted
it and the rider in the air The motor
man leaned over the front of the car
and grasping Hanson by the collar,
held him on the cowcatcher until the
car was brought to a standstill. 1t
was pretty work, and, strange to say,
neither Hanson nor his bike was at
all injured.
