SUICIDED.

ESCAPED PATIENT FROM THE IN
SAME ASYLUM TOOK HIS LIFE.
Jamestown Capital: The body of
Daniel A. Corkins, who escaped from
the asylum September %, was found
Sunday afternoon in the woods east of
the institution. He had hanged him
self and was found in a sitting posi-
tion. VIM. Mcqueen, his son-in-law,
arrived today from Arvilla and took
charge of the remains.
Mr.. Corkins suffered a stroke of par
alysis a year ago and as a. result lost
his mind. Once he attempted his life
by setting fire to the house and again
he took an overdose of poison and tried
to complete the work with his pocket
knife but Mr.. Mcqueen arrived in time
to stop him. He was sent to the asy-
lum last July and escaped Sept. %
about 3 p. m. He selected the most
secluded portion of the timber along
the river where the bushes were very
dense and ended his life. The asylum
sent out searching parties in all direc-
tions, published descriptions of hin
in the newspapers and tried all means
to find him. In fact Mr.. Mcqueen two
weeks ago beat through the brush ant
stood for some time within two rods
of the body, looking in all direction:
closely.

ONLY GOT TWO VOTES-BUT

Dr. %LJ ILL., #t. f' Fad
Valley City Times-Record: Some
of the voters Of precinct No. 32-Svea
township-have acquired the habit of
distributing a few complimentary votes
at each election. The votes are gen
orally in favor of a neighbor and ap-
pear in the returns in the scattering
column" No harm is intended, and
the good people down there regard this
method of voting in the light of a
joke. This year the Svea voters did
business with their scattering votes.
Two of them wrote in the name Of J..
P. H. Applequist for the office of coun-
ty surveyor, and these two votes were
enough to elect him. No party made
a nomination for this office, and conse-
quently Mr.. ~Applequist, with his two
votes, can qualify for county surveyor
if he chooses.
