A Macon Man Whose Deter
mination to Die was
Obvious.
FRUSTRATED BY FRIENDS
His Pistol Taken From Him, He Tries the
Rope Route, and Then Seeks a
Railroad Track.

Macon, April 3-Matthew Grace, 8
well-known grocer here, made a des.
perate attempt today to commit sui.
eide, but was prevented by friends
who rushed into the room and took the
pistol from his hand.
Later In the day, Grace procured a
rope and did his best to make his exit
by the moose route. His friends were
again in evidence, and once more the
crazy grocer was saved from himself
This would have been enough for the
average citizen, but Grace was 50 far
above the average that he soon wan
dered out to the Central railroad,
where he placed his head on the
tracks, just in time to be pulled out of
danger by the police.
No cause has yet been assigned for
Grace's suicidal mama, but he will
hereafter be closely watched by his
friends.

MIsSISSIPPI'S MENACE.
Great Anxiety Still Felt in st Louis.
River Rising.

st. Louis, April 3.-This morning
local flood situation was so serious as
to cause great anxiety to parties doing
business alongrhe levees on both sides
of the river. The gauge on the st.
Louis side of the Mississippi now reg
listers twenty-eight feet, and the cell
lars of stres and mercantile houees
on the levee are filled with water to
the depth of from three to four feet 1t
is expected that the river Will con-
tinue to rise for several days yet, and
that tee thirty-two feet mark of '92
will be passed before the crest of the
flood is reached.
Another rise of two feet will result
in the stopping of traffic on the rail-
ways operating switching tracks along
the levee. The residents on the east
ern branch of the river are becoming
alarmed over the situation, and large
force of men are at work strengthen
ing the levees "A high wind prevails
this morning and causes heavy waves

but it is believed they will be able to
withstand the attack CT the water and
driftwOod. These entertainments form
the sole protection from flood of sew

The Old Monitor Being Brightly
Decked For the Summer Season.
For several weeks the beautitying
touches of the painters brushes have
been steadily changing the appearance
of the U. S. S. Passaic.
Three men are at work, one on the
engine room and on the machinery In
different parts of the ship, one on the
berth deck, and one on the main and
hurricane decks.
The work has necessarily been pro-
crossing slowly as there are SO few at
work, and there is great deal of sur
face to be covered, and as the work is
being so thoroughly done.
The engine-room, fireroom, and aux
iliary engines and pumps in other
parts of the ship are painted pure
white. so that the walls, roof, and ma
chinery show plainly with less light
than formerly, and the brass work is
polished SO brightly that it shows
plainly in the dark.
The walls and ceiling in the berth
deck, wardroom and captains cabin
are painted the same cleaning white.
with floors painted straw color.
The turrets, and superstructure are
being painted white with ventilator
and smOkestack straw color.
The work is all finished with the ex-
ception of superstructure. As soon
as this is done the sides will be paint
ed as low as the water line.
With new awnings, complete
dressing of fresh white paint, and
freshly painted boats. the Passaic will
soon be In very attractive condition.

Morela Green, Insane Woman, Bites
Those who Come Near Her.
Morella Green's teeth were the weap-
Ons with which she inflicted injuries
upon those who tried to restrain her
violence. Morella has been wildly in
sane for some time, and the colored
women who were called in to sit with
her, found little difficulty in keeping
her quiet.
Yesterday, however, the woman be-
came violent, and attacked the two
women who were attending her with
the violence of wild beast. She in
serted her teeth into the faces and arms
OF the women, and ii required extra
ordinary exertion to hold her until an
officer could be sent for.
Deputy Sheriff Taylor went to the
house, which is at the corner of D and
I'll streets. and took the crazy woman
to Jail. She will have hearing for
lunacy this week.
