NORFOLK, VA, August 31.-(Special.)-
The Norfolk boys took one Of the games
to-day and the visitors got the other.
The first was a corker, and lasted through

which 1t was anybody's old game till the
last man was out. Newton was in the
box for Norfolk, and though a little wild,

of the sixth, and was thrown away in
the fourth by Weddge, who put the ball

Caldwell. NJ Dec. ss.-Two prison-

suicide at about the same time In the
penitentiary here yesterday. Mccall
ium. who attempted suicide as joke,
Is dead. Barbain win recover. Bar
balm, who has been III and respondent
for some time past, fastened strap to
the bars Of his cell and hanged him
self, but was discovered BY a keeper
before life was extinct and resuscitat-
ed. Barbain admitted that he had tried
to kill himself because he was Ill and
tired of living.
When the, excitement caused by Bar
bain's attempted suicide had subsidized
McCallum announced to his prison
mates that he would play joke on the
keepers. A few moments later con-
vict in a cell adjoining McCallum's
heard the latters cell door rattle, fol-
lowed by low groan. A shout OF
warning brought the keepers to the
scene. McCallum was found hanging
from the door. He had tied one end Of
a strap to the bars and the other about
his neck, bent his knees under him,
and allowed his full weight to hang on
the strap. He had not been hanging
more than couple of minutes, but the
physician could not save his life. The
doctor said that the strap must have
pressed against the mans jugular vein
in such way as to render him uncon-
scious almost instantly.
McCallum was serving go days sem
tence for larceny, and was booked for
release next Thursday.
