Attempted Suicide.

A telegram from San Francisco dated January 12 gives the following account of a very sad occurrence there, the unfortunate subject of it being we'll known in Prescott: W. J. D. Horne of the Ninth cavalry, U. S. A., made desperate attempt at sui eide in an O Farrell street fruit store today. A Dal Porto, the owner, was dressing a chicken when the captain walked hastily up, grabbed knife from his hand and slashed himself across the throat. Dal Porto grap- pied with the captain and desperate struggle followed. Acrowd gathered and several men over powered Horne and he was taken to the hospital. He will probably recover. Captain Horne served in the Philippines and was seriously i'll in the Manila hospital. He had been an invalid for some time. He was to appear soon before the retiring board.
 Captain Horne visited Prescott only short time since and was in very bad health at the time. He told his friends here that he intended go- ing to Mexico to remain until his ap- pearance before the retiring board.

The Gossiper the Worst

Now. of all the ills and curses, from
the cradles TO the hearses, the one we
call the gossiper is certainly the worst.
And in every community. and at ev-
cry opportunity. the walls of their slap
der they ne'er hesitate to burst. And
their tongues are always clacking. tho
their stories have no backing, and they
lie about their neighbors when their
neighbors turn their backs. From the
hours of early dawning they are lying
crooklng, fawning,. and enlist the aid
of Satan, who will cover up their
tracks. OF our mothers, wives and
sisters they will talk their tongues to
blisters, and to smirch a reputation
gives to them ghoulish glee. If they
set soul to aching. or heart succeed
10 breaking, they are filed with happy
feeling to very great degree. They
will tear the lid from coffi for their evil
hearts ne'er soften, and they'll follow
suffering woman to her last sleep
in the grave. If the gossip e'er sees
glory twill be like the man in story, who
sneaked past the golden portals by an
awfully close shave.-Commoner.-

That the democrat and peo-
pies party state committeesfailed
to get together at their recent
meeting on combined state
ticket has been a source of a
great deal of glee on the part of
the republican papers of Kansas.
AS a matter of fact the question
of what the tickets shall be, and
who shall compose them is one
to be settled by the delegates
forming the conventions, and by
no one else. If the majority Of
the populists and democrats OF
Kansas desire to get together on
one ticket they can do SO by
sending delegates to their state
conventions with that end in
view. Ii either party assumes to
dictate to the other through
it's central committee, itdoes not
necessarily follow that the peo-
Pile behind such committee are
bound to stand by it, If by doing
SO they would be playing into
the hands of the common politi-
cal enemy. We are still OF the
belief that the elements opposing
modern republicanism in Kan
sas will become united at the No
vember election. We think it
not only practical but eminent
ly proper that they get together
under the democratic banner.
That banner is carried by honest,
earnest men, and will not be
turned over to any boilers or
"reorganizers.'' This the repub-
leans might as well recognize
now, no matter how much they
hope otherwise. Kansas demo-
Gratis and populists MUST unite.
