A suicide club has been discovered in
Frankfort, Ind, and the police are
now endeavoring to prevent the clubs
surviving members from following the
example OF several OF their number,
who have already shot or poisoned
themselves. Taken as a general rule,
the man who joins a suicide club is a
full brother to the man who fools with
an 'unloaded" gun, with the one
pleasing difference that his victim is
himself, and not some innocent friend
or bystander.
