TO FORM. NEW COUNTY
WILL INCLUDE PARTS OF ST.
 CLAIR AND SHELLEY.
Area Will Be About 400 Square Miles With Population of 3,ooo-An Attempt at
 Suicide.

Birmingham. May 2O.-(Special.)-A number Of citizens of St, Clair and shelby counties met at the Morris ho- tei tnls afternoon to take Cp the move- ment looking to the formation of A new County. The meeting was well attended. among those present being F. H. Lathrop. w. c. Chatham, J. l.. Foreman. Thomas Jones, G. W. Waite and N. B. Spears, of St. Clair County. and J. l.. Vandiver. Lige Turner, J. R. Beavers. J. R. Dyke, II. M. Abercrom- bic and others of Shelby County. It is proposed to form a new County out of the northern part of Shelby and the Southern part of St. Clair, covering that territory included from Yellow Leaf Creek to Black Bone mountain,
 taking in about 400 square miles of territory with an estimated voting population of 5000. As to size, the new County is said 70 be one of the prettiest in the State and according to the figures of the promoters the wealth has been more evenly distrib- uted and the burden of building court house and jail and conducting the government of the County more even ly divided than in other counties in the State. The citizens who met here organized and appointed a committee to present facts and figures concern ing the proposed County. The Consti- tutional Convention will be requested to allow the formation of the County and the committee appointed for that purpose will visit the county seats of both St. Clair and Shelby to gather data. It is expected that Hon. N. B. Spears, who is a member of the Con- stitutional Convention will lead the fight in that body for the new County. 
 An Attempt at Suicide.
 Jack Evans, a young white man well known about town, attempted to end his life this morning by taking ten grains of morphine. The first known of his intention to kill himself was when Evans walked into negro drug store on the southside and informed pr. c. H. Wilkerson, colored, that he was tired of living and had just taken an overdose of morphine. He said that he wanted the doctor to take his name and address so that he could mo- tify his people when the end came. policeman was summoned but Evans was soon overcome and fell to the floor. Physicians then took him in hand and 1t is believed that his life will be saved. It is said that this is the third time that young Evans has tried to poison himself. He made the statement this morning so 1t Is said, that if he failed this time he would try the bullet route next. Extreme de- spondency caused by i'll health Is be- lieved to be the cause of the young mans desire to end his life.

SPECTACLES AND EYEGLASSES

Some very important things to con-
slider in the wearing of spectacles and
eye glasses. First of all is do you
need them at all?
Call on II. p. Lorbach, Scientific OPP
eician, at the Norwood Hotel, (until
Thursday, April 25th, the last day.
have your eyes examined in the most
scientific and approved manner, free
of charge, as well as any consultation
you may have in regard to the same.
II you do not need glasses, or if the
glasses that you now have are as good
as you can get. he will tell you so, but.
II you have headache, eyes burn and
smart, print blurs and runs together
eyes feel as If they had sand in them
you have to hold your reading matter
too far or too near for good vision
(l2 to 10 inches the proper distance)
you shuold see him at once.
Second: Being assured that you do
need glasses, then you must be sure
that the lenses prescribed for you are
absolutely right, and just what you
ought to have in your case. Next,see
that these lenses are put into frame
| (either with rim or rimless) that fit
your face; one that will place the
glasses square in front of the eye.
Third: After you have made up
| your mind to get them, get all the
| comfort you can and have them look
well on you. Be just as particular in
this as you are in your clothes, and in
looking around please notice the
glasses furnished by H. P. Lorbach

they fit the patient, see how well he Oh

ity in optical work. Thursday, Apri

Death Of Mrs. Catherine Moran.

On Sunday morning, Aug. IL, at G:10
o'clock, death summoned, after long
illness, the devoted and loving wife Of
Patrick Moran of Empire, Dakota
county. Catherine Sheridan was born
in county Mayo, Ireland, March 49,
1888, emigrating to America in 1851
with her brother, Patrick Sheridan,
late of Lakeville. She was married to
Mr.. Moran Oct. 1G, 1853, at Lockport,
n. Y, and in 1854 removed to Rose
mount and to her late home in 1866
Mrs. Moran was the mother of twelve
children, eleven of whom together
with her husband survive her, viz: NJ.
j., Of St Paul; Thomas p, of Hast
ings, John L., Of Lakeville; 2. Henry,
of Empire; Mrs. 2. Mccarthy, of Han.
cock, Mimi; Mrs. w. ]. Gibbons, Of
Pennington; Mrs. J. J. Sweeney, of
Dyersville, Iowa; Mrs. NJ. ]. Corcoran,
of Rosemount, and Misses Nellie, Tillic
and Emma, of Empire. Mrs. Moran
was woman who was greatly beloved
by her associates and friends. The no.
bility of her character and her generous
nature easily won for her new friends
and ever kept the old ones staunch
and true. Her family will ever cher
dsh as their choicest inheritance the
memory of wife and mother whose
love and devotion to them was indy
ing, whose concern for them lasted
even to the end. Mrs. Moran's death
was peaceful; surrounded by her be-
loved husband and children and forti-
ed by the prayers and sacraments Of
the Catholic church, she resigned her
spirit to the Lord whom she so faith
fully worshipped in life.
The funeral was held Tuesday morn
ing from st. Joseph's church, Rose
mount, with solemn high Mass cele-
brated by Fathers McDevitt, Lee and
Quinn. Father Lee spoke touchingly
''of the many beautiful lessons of the
mothers life. which would be written
not on the pages Of the worlds history
but in the history Of her own home"
Hundreds of sorrowing friends fol-
lowed her to her last resting place by
the side of her only deceased child,
Austin D., who died about two years
ago. u. +. M.
