ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
centeryiIIe Man Drinks carboIic ACID
and Then Calls for Doctor.

Centerville. Jan. S.-(SpeciaD DE
spondent because of domestic troubles
which neighbors say had been contin-
uing for some time, Charles Hinkle, a
miner living in Centerville, took car
bolic acid with suicidal intent We'd
nesday and only the prompt work of
physicians saved his life. Today he is
still alive though not entirely out of
danger, but it is thought that if moth
ing unforeseen occurs he will recover.
Called for "a Doctor.
Hinkle took the acid late Wednes-
day at his home. His act was witnessed
by Mrs. Hinkle and their two chill
dren. After pouring the fiery potion
down his throat, the unhappy man,
perhaps partially repenting his rash
act, staggered to the telephone in an
endeavor to summon physician, but
before he could get the connection he
fell to the floor. suffering awful ag-
ony from the effects of the drug.
Reason for His Act.
According to people who know the
family, Mr. and Mrs. Hinkle have not
been living happily for some weeks.
They have had frequent squarrels, SO it
is said, and this is thought by some
to have been the reason for the mans
attempt to take his own life. Mr.. Hin
kle is too weak to talk of the
affair and his wife could not be inter-
viewed when a Courier representative
attempted to secure statement from
her.
Father Has Been Summoned.
The father of the unfortunate man,
Elias Hinkle,. of Ollie, was notified last
night that his son had attempted to
commit suicide and the elder man will
arrive in Centerville tonight to take
care of his son.
Has TWO Children.
Hinlsle is known among his fellow
coal miners here as hard worker and
a quiet, peaceable man and the friends
of the family regret the unfortunate
occurrence very deeply.

Appropriations Committee.

1t is believed that the craftsmanship
of the committee on appropriations lies
between Mates, of Sac, and Bealer, of
Linn. Both of these gentlemen are
very we'll. qualified for the position,
which is one of great Importance. Few
members have harder time Of it than
the chairman Of the appropriations
committee. From the time he is ap-
pointed until the session abjourns he
is the object of assaults from all the
interests seeking aid from the state.
Altogether, his life is made miserable
for about two months, and it is very
doubtful If the honor incident to the
Craftsmanship compensates him for the
worry it causes him.
There is some talk to the effect that
Representative j. l. Nichols, of Mus
catine county, will be made chairman
of the committee on agriculture. Mr..
Nichols was a member of the last
house, and is very we'll liked by all the
members, and being farmer himself,
Isl well qualified for the craftsmanship
of the committee.
The craftsmanship Of the committee
on printing lies between English, of
Polk, and CHASED, of Plymouth, both
of whom are newspaper men, and 1t is
customary to give this committee to a
member who is familiar with the bust
ness.
