TOOK KNOCKOUT DROPS" Frank Clayton Tries to Make Bluff Good in Judge Mogan's Court.

Frank Clayton, who was arrested few days ago on Kearny street by Detectives Gibson and Wren while in the company of well known thief named Doughertv and in whose pockets when searched two vials containing Knockout drops" were found, appeared before Judge Mogan yes terday on charge of vagrancy.
 The vials were produced in court and Clayton declared that they contained mild solution of chloral which he was in the habit of taking before going to bed, as he was troubled with insomnia To prove the truth of his assertion he offered to swallow the contents of both vials if allowed half an hour between the doses
 The Judge consented and Clayton swal- lowed a dose. He was put back in the dock to wait for half an hour before talk ing the second dose, but in few minutes he began to squirm. and Attorney Tread well, who defended him, had to run for sugar as Clayton complained of the hor- rible taste. At the expiration of the half hour he refused to swallow the other dose
 Clayton testified in his own behalf that he had been working as a waiter in the Bohemian Club, the California Hotel and in Owens restaurant on Ninth street. He declared that he did not know that Dougherty was thief. The detectives testified that Dougherty had used Knock out drops while stealing from his vic tims.
 The Judge continued the case till Tues day, when he will give his decision.

K0OLAWN MAY

 Day.

Excellent coursing was witnessed yes- terday at Union Coursing Park. The hares did not run as strong as usual, but few days of fine weather and less fog will make great change in the game little animals which are accustomed to very warm climate Then, again, this Is the breeding season and hares never run well during the summer months.
 Owing to the death of a sister of MT. J. H. Rosseter, all of the dogs entered by the Pasha kennels were withdrawn, there by giving their fortunate opponents a chance to win some of the money at stake.
 The short-enders that won yesterday were Obadiah, L. s. Conley, The Gossoon and Koolawp.
 The course between Flying Buck and Koolawn was not in the least bit close as the bitch led from the slip, scored hrst turn and held her game well in hand to the finish. She stands an excellent chance of catching the long end of the stake, if not put out finally by Rosette. Culver and White Lily had a sharp argument The Lily led from the slips, but in long run up to game Culver closed the gap and took charge after the first turn, scoring rapidly on her opponent. Many people thought that Culver had put to his credit the greater number of points, but Judge Bull should know best and he decided in favor of the favorite, White Lily.

WEARIED OF
 LIFE IN JAIL AntOne Burgle Tried to
 Commit Suicide. MADE A ROPE OF HIS SHEET IS SERVING A LONG SENTENCE FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER.
MADE A ROPE OF HIS SHEET
Tried to Kill Sigmund Braverman a Year Ago as Vengeance for a Fancied
 Wrong.

Antone Burgle, who Is serving a seven years sentence for assault to commit murder, attempted suicide in the County Jail at about o'clock yesterday morning.
 The story of Burgle's troubles is a long one, and has already been told at some length. In 1885 he rented a store on Clay street, near Kearny, of Louis Braverman and opened restaurant. His business was failure, and he finally closed up his store, just in time to escape writ of execution about to be served upon him by the Sheriff for failure to pay his rent. A short time later he rented place at Washington street, where he started an- other restaurant.
 The fates seemed to be against him. as this business venture also proved a fail- ure. and finally MT. Braverman put his bills for rent in the hands of a collection agent. He was unable to realize anything on them and put the whole matter in the Sheriff's hands.
 On the afternoon of July IA, 1897, dep- uty sheriff visited Burgle's place of busi- ness with writ of attachment. The restaurateur, made desperate by business worries, declared that he would have his revenge on the son of his "persecutor, :" Sigmund l.. Braverman who kept jew drugstore on Post street. The Sheriff S deputy, while not thinking the man in teHQeQ IO carry out lHTedl. IL wise to keep on the safe side and warn MT. Braverman. He arrived too late, however, as the duel in the jewelry-store had already taken place, and both men were under a doctors care. Burgle got the worst of 1t, however, and to this day carries two bullets in his body. For a time he was not expected to live, and while on his bed at the Receiving Hos- pital made an ante-mortem statement, in which he freely confessed his crime, say ing further that he had intended ending his life after he had killed Braverman, but as he had failed he would do so at the first opportunity.
 Contrary to all expectations, he recov- cred and on trial was convicted and sen fenced to seven years imprisonment. Since his confinement, while quiet, he has been sulen and morose. Yesterday morn ing a trusty, hearing a strange noise in his cell, made an investigation. and found that the prisoner had made a rope of his bedclothes, fastened 1t to a convenient projection and was slowly choking to death. He was cut down, and in the fu- ture will be closely guarded.
