Tries TO Commit Suicide.

Racine, Wis, May 31.-Be-
cause her husband refused to
take her to,a picnic, Mrs. Fer
dinand Honeychurch took poison
and is now lying in a precarious
condition at ST. Mary's hospital.
During the day the husband,
who is a moulder, and the wife,
bride of 20, INDUCED in quar-
rel over his refusal to take her
to the Memorial day outing, and
the outcome was that she went
to a neighboring drug store and
procured small bottle of NOR
phine. Returning home, her
husband found his wife on the
point of taking the drug, but he
finally succeeded in getting the
bottle out of her grasp. Moth
ing daunted, Mrs. Honeychureh
went early last evening to
another druggist and purchased
another bottle of poison, while
her husband repaired to a saloon
to calm his nerves after the day S
excitement. While he was
drinking with several compan-
ions, his wife appeared suddenly
on the scene.
"'This is your fault!' she ex-
claimed, as she fourished her
bottle of poison an emptied the
contents down her throat.

Burglar is Rich.

Waupun, Wis, June ITO fall
heir to $4,000 is very pleasant,
but to be unable to get the money
for two years is agravating. j.
III. Stokes has inherited the $50,
900, but for the next two years
he will be forced to be the guest
of the state at the prison in this
city. He was convicted Of a
charge of burglary in Dane
county and was sent up to serve
a sentence. That,was before he
fell heir to the fortune.
Inquiries have been made from
Fort Dodge, Iowa, in regard to
J. FL. Stokes of that place, who
was heard of in Oshkosh. The
letter of inquiry stated that a
rich relative had died, leaving
$4,000 to him. Stokes had
been sent up from Oshkosh in
1896 and served four years for
robbing the Percy gun store in
that city. After his discharge
he wrote to Ex-sheriff Horn Of
Winnebago county that he was
going to the Paris Exposition,
where he contemplated doing
some big jobs. It is evident that
he did not go to Paris, as he was
arrested and convicted of a
robbery at a small town near
Madison.
Stokes was sent up under the
name of John Johnson, and it
was not at first known that he
was the man who inherited the
fortune, but today he was
absolutely identified as Stokes
and the news of his good luck
vas broken to him.
All he can do is to wait for his
term to expire, when he can
collect his fortune and then re
form.
Stokes is known to the police
under several aliases. He has
served under the names of John
son, Stokes, Morgan and Lang
ford.

THE COST OF CRIME.

The criminals are very expensive
members of the community. They
cost the people of this country about
81 200. 900, coo q year. II their in
crease could be prevented, the Quincy
Herald is of the opinion that it would
be a paving investment to give each
of the 250, 900 accepted criminals a
monthly pension of $500, on condi-
ton that they take a life vacation
from the strenuous demands of their
profession. But we accept the crimi-
nal as part of our Civilizations
barbarism-and pay the enormous
cost of maintaining him.
The average annual income of pro-
fessional criminals is estimated at
about $1,000. This means that the
community pays them yearly salary
of $500, 900, 900. After this is spent
for their maintenance we pay an
nually 5000. OOO, 900 for their detec-
ton, conviction and support under
national. state, county and city aus
pices. The urban population has to
pay the larger share of this, or So.
900, 900 people in cities have to pay
s1O5. OO0, OO0-s3 so per cspita-and
the suburban population of 40, 000,-
600 81 each. or : 40, 900 900. In addi-
ton to this there is q federal and
state expense of $50.000,00 Add
to this the loss by malicious destruc-
ton of property, the money value of
human life lost through crime, the
expenditure necessary in the attemp pit
to guard against the loss through
law breakers, and 81, 900, 900, 600 is
not large estimate.
Imagine. IL you can," says the
New York Herald, 1.-The effect of abol-
ishing crime, and then you will ap-
preciate the ramifications that crime
runs into. and why it is such an enor-
nous expense. Think of there being
no criminal courts, with their exper-
fenced officers, attaches and buildings;
no Jails or penitentiaries with their
costly maintenance, no police force.
excepting to look after matters out
side of the realm of crime; no core
ners or coroner's jury, no incendiary
fires, or other criminal injury to per-
son or property; no necessity for safes
