The later details of the attempt to
arrest the stage robber at his home in
Delta show that the plan originated
with the deputy sheriff who was killed,
says the San Francisco Chronicle. He
refused to listen to the warnings of
Thacloer and Stewart and counted on
his ability TO cope with the man who
had shown SO much nerve and readi-
ness in his several crimes on the high
way. How trifie may turn the scale
in such deadly battle as occurred in
this little house at Delta is shown by
the fact that had HarraH contented
himself with one bullet fred into Rad
ford's breast and then turned his pis-
toll on Stewart, nothing could have
saved the other officer.

THE SUICIDE MANIA.

The suicide mania appears to be
gaining ground People kill them
selves because of financial reverses,
family troubles, lucurable illness,
and other causes 1t should not be
so.
Editor j, B. McCullagh of the St.
Louis Globe Democrat, who suicid-
ed last week, wrote d half column
article on the suicide mania, April
IA, 1892, In it he spoke half way
apologetically Of the crime, aud it
is small wonder that he fell a victim
to it. In the first part Of said arti-
Gle he used the following strong
language
"There are emergencies, of
course, in which it may easily seem
to man of sensitive or melancholy
organization that he has outhved
his usefulness, aud that the best
thing he eau do is to quit the world
where he has become superhuous,
if not burdensome; but the dark
ness Of such situations is apt to be
exaggerated even in the worst
cases"
At the wind up he closed as follows;
1--WE are not Obliged to Weld our
right Of existence because it is
mocked by the interposing disaster
and sorrow. The true and manly
course is to go on trying for sue
cess, in spite of all drawbacks and
disappoiutments, That is what we
are placed here for and we can not
afford to do otherwise. The plea of
despair, in short, is not a valid one
where the opportunity Of further
effort Is provided, aud the hope Of
The Daily Texarkanian., 1897-01-06

fnal triumph is not taken away
while life remains" ."
We believe that suicide is a dis
ease and that in most cases it is
durable. 1t is a species of insanity
all know that insanity in most
cases is durable. If it is a disease,
one afflicted with it is not response
bic for his or her acts while so af-
hicted. But one should AVOID any
thing that will lead to contrac-
tion of the disease, such as giving
away to melancholy and dwelling
upon misfortune and trouble, nor
90 into dissipation. Dissipation
and drunkenness, we believe, causes
more suicides than all other causes
combined. If one lives a sober,
conservative life there is little dan
ger of contracting the disease of
suicide. We are sorry to know the
seems to be on the increase
in this country.

just as good as it is clean, only the
very best material being used in its
manufacture. All fruit is washed
by our own process. Particular
care is given to the baking. The
choicest butter is used in making
Christmas Cake, just as it is in our
pastry. Orders have already been
received from many of the best fam
lilies in Texarkana. Many of them
have made their own Christmas
Cake heretofore but a sample has
convinced them that baking, as we

better cake than they can, and sell
it to them for less money than they
can possibly make it for, 1t sells at

HICKS PRoPHEsIEs FOR 1897.

The Rev. Irl r. Hicks, editor,
preacher and weather prophet, is
out with bis almanac for 1897. 1t
is full of all sorts of warnings about
tornadoes, Billiards, earthquakes
and other elemental disturbances.
After considerable information
of a character that is only intelligi-
BILE to those who know something of
astronomy as a science, the new al
manac gets down to telling us what
sort of weather we may expect
during the coming year.
The two most interesting months
outlined are April and Augustine
teresting because all sorts of trou-
BILE is predicted. April will be the
tornado month of 1897, while Au-
gust will make speciality of earth
quakes.
With reference to these predic-
tion Rev. Hicks says: "We desire
to be clearly understood in all our
references to probable earthquakes.
They are not intended for alarms.
Ten thousand to one, no danger or
harm will result from this class of
phenomena in this country. But
in the interest of the science of
meteorology they have very inn
portant bearing"
Some of the prophets other fore.
casts as follows:
Jan. l to 5, intensely cold, with
progressive boreal wave. Jan. IA to
II, cold wave. Jan. % to rs, biz
yards and cold wave.
Feb. 3 to 5, destructive sleet
storms and again on the 9th and
10th. Warm weather in the latter
part of the month, leading to floods
in the southern part of the country.
March Is to 25, blizzards in the
Northwest and heavy rains in the
South. March % to the close of
the month, heavy storms.
July rs to the end of the month,
very warm, with threatening clouds
reaching a crisis about the SOth.
The prophet explains that stomrs
all move from west to east and he
spreads his predictions over several
dates to cover the progressive
areas.
If observers care to watch on
these predictions they will have
enough to test Rev. Hicks ability
as a forecaster.-Post Dispatch.

Why is it that one man is old and
decrepid at 45 and another hale and
hearty atS0? 1t depends on the
care he takes of himself. Often a
mans body gets out of repair-the
trouble grows until it lays him out
IN bed. Whenever a man feels that
he is not as we'll as he ought to be,
whenever he is listless, is losing
weight and that his ordinary work
gives him undue fatigue, he needs
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry. If he keeps on working with
his liver inactive and his blood i'm
pure-he keeps his nerves and his
body under constant nervous
strain. He will not be hearty when
he is old. The Golden Medical
Discovery" cures many so-called dis
eases because nearly all illness
springs from the same thing-bad
digestion and consequent impure
blood. The Discovery" makes the
appetite good, the digestion strong,
assimilation easy, and the blood rich
and pure.
