Since the crusade against vice in New
York was started the police here have
decided to do little reform work them
selves. To begin they made an effort
to break up Skinny playing on the
streets. Next they went prowling
around in the b. & 0. yards and loeat-
ed a number of hoboes, who We're TAX

were rudely awakened and started to-
ward Rosby's Rock, where they will
not be molested by the police, and their
latest act Of reform was done yesterday.

SWALLOWED PARIS GREEN
AND THEN COAxED THE PHYsI-
CHAN TO PERMIT HER TO
DIE.
RASH ACT OF MRS. BERENEK,
An intelligent Bohemian Woman who
Lives Wsrt of Bridgeport-Medical
Aid Was Summoned. But the Wo-
man is Still Lying in a Critical
CoRdftion-Was Tired of Life.

Il want to die. Doctor. please let
me die" cried Mrs. Annie Berenek,
yesterday afternoon after taking about
one ounce of Paris Green.
The above language was addressed
to DR.. j. A. Heinlein, of Bridgeport,
who was called to the home of Mrs
IBefeneh! ats Goosetown, about two
miles west of Bridgeport, after the
poison had been taken and the patient
had been suffering about one hour.
A daughter OF Mrs. Berenek, Mrs.
Mrs. Joseph Procuc, rushed into DR..
Heinleins Office and asked him to
come to her mothers home immed-
lately. The Doctor went Immediately
and on arriving at the house, the
neighbors, who had gathered, show
ed the Doctor the box of paris green,
and a glass, also bottle of whiskey,
which showed that the poison had
been mixed with whiskey.
For two hours the Doctor worked
with this woman, while all the time she
was protesting against his labors, but
ar last the Doctor had eliminated all
lHV pOloOu llOlii Lie SlUlldCu, anu the
matter she vomited showed conclusive
ly that the poison was paris green or
arsenic poisoning. Owing to this salt
being slow poison, it gave the Doc
tor a chance, as arsenic is very slow
ly dissolved in the stomach.
The Doctor sent back ito Bridgeport
for medicine and worked hard until
the sufferer was relieved. At late
hour last evening it was reported that
she was still living. report was al
so current that she was dead, but the
latter could not be confirmed. The
Doctor stated that the woman was in
a critical condition.
The woman coaxed the doctor to let
her die as she was tired of life. The
cause of the attempted suicide was do
nestle troubles. She is fifty-two years
old and very estimable lady, being
known as one of the most intelligent
bohemian women in this section of
the county and being known national
ly in the Bohemian societies. While
she has had domestic troubles, it was
not thought she would commit such a
rash act. Her many friends trust that
she will recover

SENATOR DAVIS'S LIFE
Hangs by Thread-Must Soon BE
Better or W0rse--WiH Against


ST. PAUL, Mimi, November "a
The fight of a tremendous will against
physical disease, has alone kept Sem
ator Davis alive for the past "a hours.
Last night was the worst he has pass
ed since the beginning of the acute
kidney trouble. Had nature, reinforc
ed by science, done nothing to stay the
progress OF the disease, Senator Davis
would not now be alive. The resis-
tarce, however, has been so strenuous
and sustained, that the battle is being
continued. A change either for the
better or for the worse lis looked for
at almost any time. The vigor shown
yesterday by the Senator was not so
evident to-day and his rational mo-
ments were fewer and shorter.
The callers at the house to-day were
few and all are aware Of the necessity
for quiet in the house. Reports from
the residence of Senator Davis late
this afternoon stated that he was rest
ing quietly and there was no apparent
change in his condition.

.ditor of the Register.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-In last Sundays Register l
noticed that you gave some space to
the people who want in their own
words to put before the public some
objections The Register is TO be
commended for giving its valuable
space to this cause. The people of
Belfaire have kick, and just one,
and that is against nahe Wheeling
Street Railway Company, who own
the valuable franchise through this
city. They also pretend to operate
this line, and even the pretense is
bad; in fact, from the way the cars
run, one would think that there was
no management, only conductors to
take your fare, and when passenger
boards a car at Bridgeport to catch
a B. & o. train in this, allowing him
self about one hours time, he asks the
conductor If he can make the train,
the answer always is l expect, and as
often is the case he misses his train,
and has consumed over one hours
time in a hirty-fve-minute ride, and
passes probably two or three cars on
a switch. After waiting on the
switches fifteen or twenty minutes for
this batch Of cars to arrive, person
often waits a half hour on a car, and
then when he does get on one he has
no assurance when he will reach his
destination. This city simply gets
the poorest service that could be pos
sible. The company seems to try and
mismanage it more than to manage it.
The city gets all the old rickety cars
fiat wheels, and no schedule. The cit
liens of Bellaire have become indig

yestigate~this companys actions, which
they should have done months ago.

Changing the Creeks Course.
WHEELING, November 22nd


To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-There is much foolish talk
about changing the course of the creek
so as to cut through the hill between
Fulton and the city and causing it to
flow into the river via Jonathan's Ra-
vine, just below the Top" mill. The
scheme is impracticable for several
reasons, one of which is the great ex-
pense, and another. more potent than
all else, is the objection to the creek
flowing into the Ohio ABOVE the city
and creating a bar equally as bad, if
not worse than the one below the pres
ent mouth of the stream and thus de-
stIoying our harbor. All the river in
terests would object to it, as well as
many other interests.
Why not consider a scheme that is
practicable, to-wit: Cut the creek
through the Peninsula at some point
near the Baltimore G Ohio tunnel,
thereby causing a direct flow of water
that would keep the banks of the creek
clean with any moderate freshet?
Look at the interests which would be
benefited by such a consummation.
Nearly five hundred acres of splendid
territory within and adjacent to the
city would be reclaimed, which could
be made into splendid residential and
manufacturing sites. The increased
value OF the property would pay more
than three-fold the expense of the cut.
The Baltimore & Ohio railroad, the
Wheeling & Lake Erie. the Terminal
and the city and county at large
would all reap great benefits There
are four bridges that could be done
away with, and the expense of keep
Ing them in repair saved. And think
Of the great benefit it would be 70
Fulton--that great stencil always with
them in summer would be abolished.
and the people of that suburb would
have any quantity of territory upon
which to extend. their town. One of
the most prominent civil engineers in
the city informed the subscriber that
Lit is the only practicable and COM
prehensive scheme possible for making
a success of changing the course of
Wheeling creek. With such a change
/ there would be no need of going
either north or south of the city limits
for sites for manufacturing purposes
They could extend eastward indefinite
