ATTEMPTED SUICIDE,
Marcus Stevens Cut His Throat
With a Cobbler'S Knife.

With a CobbIer's Knife.
Marcus Stevens, the rs year old
son of James Stevens, now residing
in Beaver Falls township, Renville
county, but formerly of Granite
Rock, Redwood county, attempted
suicide by cutting his throat with a
knife. while in a temporary fit of
mental alteration, at the home of
his father, about seven o'clock last
Wednesday evening. Marcus Stew
ems is single man.
A little over two weeks ago it
was observed that Mr.. Stevens be-
came demented at times, and it was
necessary to place a watch over
him. On a night about ten days be-
fore be made the attempt on his life,
he arose from his bed and without
dressing himself rushed down
stairs, pushed aside his sister who
was on watch, and rushed out of
doors in his almost nude condition.
It was very cold on this night and
as dark as it was cold. The sister
gave the alarm and brother went
out to the barn, hoping to find him
there. but without success, the door
being locked He returned to the
house, secured a lantern, and again
| went out in the dark. He called to
his unfortunate brother several
times and waved the lantern in the
air, but received no response. He
made complete search of the prem
ises but his brother could not be
found. Finally, just as he was
stepping into the house the brother
stepped up behind him, ana in an
apparent perfectly rational state of
mind. He said that be didn't know
how he got out, but that he had
been from so to 100 rods south of
the house, on the plowed land, when
he heard his brother call and saw
the light of the lantern, which
caused him to return to the house.
DR.. Gibson was sent for the same
night, but found Stevens perfectly
rational, and while he ordered a
strict watch kept on him, thought
that there was no further danger.
On Wednesday evening last,
shortly after six O'Clock, Marcus
Stevens passed by his fathers shoe
repairing work bench, and unseen,
picked up one of the oooblel S
knives lying on the same. A mo-
ment later his brother asked him
| whether he didn't want to 90 out
and helr him put in the stock. Mar
| Gus assented. One COW, more bel
ligerent than the rest, broke away
| from the herd, and ran around a
granary and straw stack. Marcus
followed the animal around behind
the granary. The other brother
noticed that the COW was returning
to the herd, but did not see Marcus.
He hurried around to find him.
Marcus was peeking out from be-
hind the granary, and just as his
brother appeared in view, he jerked
the cobbler S knife from his pocket,
and ran it across his throat
When the brother arrived and
ierked the knife away from Marcus
he noticed that there was quite a
cash in the throat and that the
wind pipe was partially severed.
Marcus was taken to the house and
DR.. Gibson again summoned, who
found that if the knife had gone an
eighth of an inch deeper Marcus
would have bled to death. He
sewed up the wind pipe and throat,
and young Stevens is now doing
we'll 1t is probable that he will be
sent to the hospital in short time.
