The Typographical Union.

The regular monthly meeting of Column
bia Typographical Union, No. 101, was held
yesterday afternoon at Typographical Tenn
pie and lasted for several hours, there be-
ing several important subjects brought be-
fore the meeting for consideration.
A proposition was submitted, but was de-
feated by a good majority, to send two
delegates to the coming International con-
vention at Colorado Springs instead of four
as heretofore. Some of those who wanted
this plan adopted thought it would be bet
ter, on the score of reduction Of expenses
to the lowest possible limit, but the ma
jority decided that it would be wiser to
have the larger number. The union also
decided to raise the boycott on all the local
breweries whose names were still on the
unfair list. The motion was strongly op-
posed by the printers who belong TO
Knights of Labor assemblies, but they were
outvoted. Propositions were also defeated
to sell the building belonging to the union
and to establish new plan for funeral
assessments. An adjourned meeting will
be held Sunday next.

Tried Suicide.

That Charles Hunt, sixteen years old, a
bugler in the marine corps, went through
the motion of attempting suicide last night
there can be no doubt, but the officials at
the barracks will give no Information con-
corning his act. 1t was about $50 O'Clock
when the report of rifle was heard and
the flash seen. But no damage was done.
and it is believed that Hunt did not really
intend to harm himself, but only fired the
rifle for effect.
The boy was away from the barracks on
leave and was to have reported today. He
had been paying attention to little girl
in the neighborhood of his home. This dis
pleased his mother, and because of what
she said to him he threatened to take his
life. Instead of doing so, he only succeeded
In getting in the guard house and will now
be punished for his act.
