established d strict quarantine over tho
house end placed two guards about it. This
quarantine will. Of course be continued for
the usual period after the mans recovery,
or his removal to the hospital. should he
later decide to so to the institution.

some time. The health officer EXPRESSED

AGAIN ARRESTED,
Maggie BOwles Suspected of Second
Attempt at Suicide.

Mrs. Maggie Bowles, OF Maggie Ander-
son, as her relatives wish her to be called,
an account of whose attempt at suicide
was printed in The Star of yesterday, is
now at the home of her father on street
northwest. Yesterday afternoon the young
woman was found with another bottle OF
iodine in her possession, and this led to the
belief that she again meditated sef-de-
struction. She was arrested and taken to
the eighth precinct. Later Lieutenant
Kenny talked with the girl, and she prom
ised to refrain from suicidal attempts in
the future. Upon this she was placed in
custody of her father, Mr.. Joseph T. An
derson, and he took her home
Mr.. Anderson said today that he does not
believe Maggie had any idea of killing her
self, either on the day she drank the iodine
or yesterday, when she secured the second
bottle of the fluid, and expressed the opin-
ion that the motive for her actions was to
create sympathy, principally on the part
of the young street car conductor who had
ceased visiting her

ACTRESS CAMPS BLACK EYE,
Sim Williams Again Fails to Answer
for the Alleged infection.

There was n pronounced fiavoring of Aus
talian beauties in the gathering at Judge
SCOTS court this morning. and picture
hats, silk waists and feminine finery and
furbelows were plentiful. The pulchritude
of Miss May Camp, who is also an Austria
liam beauty, according to the agile advertis-
ing man of the company holding forth this
week at Eernans Lyceum Theater, was
somewhat spoiled, as her left eye was dark
with discoloration that even the art of
the dressing room tubes and brushes could
not completely obliterate
1t was 10 hear and to assist Judge Scott
in determining how Miss Camp had her
loneliness spoiled in the manner described
that the disciples of Thespia assembled in
court, and when the name of Sim Williams
vas called there was a rustic of silks that
showed animated interest because Will
Hams also a member of the Australian
beauty aggregation was charged with dec
Grating Miss Camps optic.
The rustic became more pronounced when
no answer was returned to Clerk Potts
clarion notes:
Sim Williams. Sim Williams! Sim. Will
liams.'
Detective Hartigan. who served the at
tachment on Williams yesterday after he
had forfeited 81 collateral for the alleged
offense, stated to Clerk Potts that the man
had been released yesterday on s. collateral
additional.
District Attorney Mullowny ordered an
ether attachment issued, and Detective
Hartigan went out to apprehend Williams
again.
Il ordered s. collateral additional taken
for Williams appearance this morning"
said Mr.. Mullowny. ION the representation
of Samuel Gassenheimer, the proprietor of
the Hotel Lawrence, that he would have the
man in court this morning. Gassenheimer
was very solicitous about the matter. and
am sorry to say | granted the request"
The Australian beauties filed out of court
evidently much disappointed. and Miss
Camps good eye and bad eye flashed to-
gether with unmistakable indignation.

COLORED MEN AND A CHICKEN.
Charles HOrad and Lewis Marshall
Arraigned Before Judge Scott.

Lewis Marshall, colored, who had a white
bandage around his head, disinfected Judge
SCOTS court room this morning with the
pungent aroma of iodoform. He was COM
plainant against Charles Horad, also col
ored, who was charged with striking him
in the head with club, and was also to an
swer charge of disorderly conduct on his
part. The evidence showed that the men
had become involved in difficulty about 4
chicken belonging to MarshalPs mother,
which had wandered into Horad's yard
Horad swore he struck Marshall because
the latter came toward him with an open
knife. After striking him witness ran.
Two other colored men corroborated
Horad's testimony about Marshall cursing
Judge Scott settled the difficulty by filming
Horad So for the assault and Marshall $40
for disorderly conduct
