TRIED TO TAKE HIS LIFE.

Special Correspondence OF Gazette and Journal.
Lincoln City, March 81. While in a
state of dependency, due to continued
ill-health, Foster Donovan of this town
attempted to commit suicide yesterday,
at his home.
Mr.. Donovan procured razor and a
knife, and going TO his room upstairs
he inflicted a severe gash across his
throat. He was discovered and rre-
vented from making further attempts
at self-destruction. A physician was
summoned and closed the wound by
stitching. During the operation Dono-
van implored the doctor to kill him.
The unfortunate man has several
times threatened to kill himself, hut no
attention was paid to him, as it was
not thought he meant what he said.
He told a neighbor few days ago that
if ho was not sent to the almshouse ho
would tako his life.
There is hope Of Mr.. Donovan's re.
covery, although his advanced ago is
against him.
