SUICIDAL WAVE.
TWO Persons at Williams Attemp
 Their Lives and One Succeeds.

IA suicidal wave seems to have struck Williams, for during last week two cases were reported, but one failed of his purpose.
 The first case was that of a 16-year- old girl named Amber Harrington who was employed as a domestic in the residence of F. R. Nellis. The girl retired as usual last Thursday night, but member of the family who slept in an adjoining room heard a SUD- pressed moan of agony coming from the room occupied by the girl. The household was aroused and a physi- clan sent for. The girl was found on the floor writhing in agony. She i'm plored those about to save her, as she had taken 1ose of stryohnine.
 The physicians worked hard to save the girl, but the deadly poison baff1ed their skill and the young girl died shortly in eonvulsions. Before she died she was asked why she took the poison, but she answered evasively that she did not know.
 The other case was that of a barber named Ed Mower. He walked into his shop last Friday morning and said to the assembled crowd "I guess I'll shave He took a razor from its

The Young. Man Who Proposed on the

 My views on love and matrimony have often been expressed in your hearing and I need not repeat them here. You know I favor free coinage of love-a 16 to love-and a main tenance of free silver after marriage. If you decide to confer upon me the honor I seek please fix date for a cau- GUS with your mother I have no ob- jection to her acting as temporary chairman, provided it is clearly under stood that I am to be chairman of the permanent organization.
 Should the result of the caucus prove satisfactory we can soon hold the primary and select the date of the convention. I have never believed in long campaigns, so if you decide to honor me I will ask you to make con- vention date as early as possible.
