Will McNan, the son of Webb Nc

twice before made similar attempts to
take his life once he took ten cents
worth of strychnine; at another time 50
cents of morphine was swallowed but
physicians saved his life by prompt use
OF a stomach pump.
The young man applied to Marshal
Brewer at lola Saturday night for Il
place to sleep and was placed in the
calaboOse. No one knew him and he
sat down in corner Of the Jail room
while the officers retired. An hour la
ter persons passing heard loud grOans
coming from the Jail. McNau was found
writing with pain upon the floor of the
prison The county physician. r.MOr-
gan was Immediately summoned and
worked with him an hour.
McNan bought the poison from Miss
Lutte Evans at Evans Bros drug
store OF lola and signed the necessary
affidavit. He swallowed an ounce of
arsenic but prompt measures saved his
life.
Information from lola today to Webb
McNaI indicates that the young man

this afternoon and will bring the young
man to Topeka for further treatment.

that young McNall has never been a
success in a business way. He was mar
ried several years ago, but did not get
along with his wife, who secured a di-
Vorce, the senior McNaH acting as her
attorney.
Young NcNaH, who is the son of his
fathers first wife is IS years old. He
lived first with his father. and then
with his mother, for time, after his
parents separated, his father trying in
vain to give him an education. He is
regarded as weak, rather than bad. He
has a daughter s years old. of whom he
talked constantly during his hours of
suffering after taking the poison.
Since securing a divorce from his wife
young McNau has drifted about from
place to place.

BARGAIN IN WHISKY.
Belvidere, Ill, Saloon-Keeper Creates
CONSERVATION Among His Rivals.

BeIvidere, Ill, Feb. Am enterpris-
ing saloon keeper of this town adver-
uses in local paper that in order to
reduce stock he will sell beer for 3
cents glass and Is cent whisky for
cents
The announcement has created uni
versal excitement, not only among the
God-fearing, whisky hating members
OF society, but also among other saloon
keepers, who are threatened with the
loss of practically all their trade during
the period of bargain sales in the
rival gin shop unless they promptly
meet the cut.
There are y saloons in Belvidere, and
in view of the fact that each is compell-
ed to pay a license fee of 81, 600 the
bargains offered by the up to date
merchant is regarded with a feeling
akin to horror by the other IL. But
they will probably meet the cut.

GIGANTIC TRUST.

Actual Aggregate Cost of New Concern,
Exclusive of the Plug Tobacco Busi-
ness of the American Tobacco
Co, About S0O,O0O,OOO.

New YORK, Oct. aS.-Nearly two years
ago Col. j. b. Hughes, of Hamilton, o.,
and his associates, Fletcher S. Heath,
a tanker, of the same city, and Perry
S. Heath, first assistant postmaster
general, began to syndicate the great
plug tobacco manufacturing establish
ments of this country and form an or
ganization which, although at that
time without the design, is now to
control more than four-ffths of the
tobacco output of the country and take
from the American Co. it's entire plug
trade.
For more than eleven months past,
eight or ten of the largest capitalists
in the country, including three or four
of the leading tobacco manufacturers,
have devoted almost their entire time
to the work of perfecting this organ
ization and bringing the manufactur-
ers together. A month before the dec
laration of war against Spain S2S,50O,-
900 in cash, the amount necessary to
begin the transfer of the properties,
was made ready, but the prospect OF
war frustrated all plans. Two of the
largest life insurance companies in
New York city at one time contracted
to take upwards of $50, ,oOO,O 900 in the
first bonds, while Russell Sage and his
associates lad arranged to place half
as much more.
Col. Hughes and Mr.. Fletcher S.
Heath procured all of the contracts for
the purchase of the plants while the
finally successful brokers, Messrs Moore
and Schley, of New York, the attor-
news for the Continental Tobacco Co.,
Messrs Lawrence and Hughes, of No.
100 Broadway, New York, completed
the syndicate and thus assisted in hold
ing the property. The latter have now
about comp. eted the articles of incor,
poration of the Continental Tobacco
Co., and they will likely be fled
for record this week. The company
will have capital of $75, 100000, one
| half to be seven per cent. preferred and
one-half common stock. The actual
aggregate cost of the above cencern
exclusive of the plug tobacco business
of the American Tobacco Co., was 9
