Drink Crazed Brain.
Especial to News and Observer

| Especial to News and Observer
| Durham, N. c., June 25.-Strapped to a
bench in the city lookup today with his
| throat cut and bleeding and his clothes
saturated with blood was j. j. Swain,
q. white man. who came near ending his
| life by cutting his throat He attempted
suicide at an early hour this morning
while suffering from delirium tremens with
a small pocket knife which he had con-
cealed about his person when locked up
Swain is a white man, probably 3S years
of age. and arrived here yesterday after
noon. from his home in Henderson He
came with Robert Allison, both of whom
are in the employ of the Postal Telegraph
Company and came here to make some re-
pairs. Last night he raised considerable
disturbance at his boarding house by his
cries when he imagined that he was be-
ing sought by enemies. Finally the police
were asked to take him in charge in order
to prevent him doing himself harm. This
morning at 1920 O'Clock he sat UP on the
side of his cot and with a small knife
that he had concealed about his person
cut a gaping wound in his throat from
which he bled profusely. Three physicians
were summoned and dressed the wound.
The ash was about four or five inches
in length and the only reason that he is
alive is because the wound was not made
in the right place to cause death.
1t is said that the would-be suicide is
of good family of people who live in or
near Henderson. He has one brother.
Whit Swain. and sister. His brother
was telegraphe6 this morning and reach
ieie is afternoon to carry him back to
Henderson.
The only reason assigned for the rash
act is that the man was suffering from
the effects of too much drink. He told
me this afternoon that he thought some
people were after him with the intention
of burning him and that he attempted to
take his life in order to save himself II
was simply fool he said, ''or else |
would not have attempted to take my own
life"
