yesterday, the mercury may fall this

With the advance of the season
Manitoba waves are losing their ter

vengeance, like the Russian warships

selves as harmless.
Yesterday morning, as the weather
bureau told last night, the cold wave
at Edmonton, Alberta province, had
brought the mercury down to A be-.

Last night ata8,.o'clock the lowest tenn

FEARING DISGRACE
SHE TAKES POISON
Woman Swallows Corrosive
Subiimate Leaves a Fare-
well Note-May Recover.

A pathetic story was revealed early
this morning by the attempted suicide
of Mamie Hawkins, or Hazel Bone, at
159 West Seventh street.
AT about 1880 a. m. the boarders
at the rooming house at the address
mentioned were awakened by shrieks
and groans, as if from someone in
great agony Two young men rushed
into the room from whence the
shrieks came and found a we'll dressed
young woman lying on the floor, ap-
parently In great pain. On the table
near by was an empty bottle labeled
"Antiseptic Tablets" which contain so
per cent of corrosive sublimate.
The girls condition was so alarming
that one Of the men ran into the street
and informed Officer Moran The po-
lice ambulance was at once summoned
and the unfortunate girl removed to
the city hospital.
At the house nothing was known Of
the girl beyond the fact that she had
applied for a room early in the even5
ing and had retired about 10 o'clock.
A letter which she wrote before TAX
ing the poison was found in the room
and reads as follows:
Dear Friends: I am going to do this
because am nothing any more, for I am
ruined for life. My intended husband is
B. o. Fusbee and he is in West Union,
Iowa. My right name is Mamie Hankins,
and my mother lives in Ferry Well, Wis.
Please let them know about me, as I
would like to be buried by the side of my
father. Tell my darling boy that I love
him better than life. Send for Miriam
Evens, 246 West Third street. She knows
all about me and my people OF course
I know that it will kill my darling moth
er and my dear boy, sbut I would rather
be with God than on earth and be what
1 am, for never would be of any use to
anyone or myself. Mrs. Lottie Shuttle
knows all about my troubles and the
name that I go by is Hazel Bone Tell
my mother and my brothers that love
them, but Bert best of all.
At an early hour this morning the
girls condition was precarious, al
though some hope Of her recovery was
entertained. She continually means
and says she must die, as she does not
wish to live in disgrace. Her age is
about twenty.

Some weeks ago Mrs J. Conley, of

of her hand by a boy, who ran off be-
fore the woman recovered from her
establishment. It was some weeks after

seized her by the hand. She immedi
ately screamed for assistance, and on
the approach of another man the
stranger made off and Mrs. Friis miss
ed her purse containing some So. AS
the purse was found at the spot where

right to arrest any man for lettering In

saloonkeeper, who should have had his
place shut up long before the time that
the tramp was arrested.

fore Judge Finehout yesterday after
noon to the charge of assaulting his

MEAT CUT [RS CUT
OUT BOYCOTT LIST
Say The "We Don't Vote For''
Move Is Based on an I'm
just Assumptien.

At a meeting Of the Meat Cutters
Union No. ia, held in Federation hall
last evening, at which there was an
attendance of more than two hundred.
the action of the Trades and Labor as
sembly in putting on the unfair list
certain candidates for Office received a
decided backset.
While the members of the union act
ed only as to the men that are in their
line, declining to interfere with other
| unions, they have set precedent that,
If followed by the other bodies, will re-
suit in the I'VE Don't Vote For" list
becoming dead letter with the people
Eand with the members of organized Ia
Dor.
The meat cutters, who include al
most every employee in the butcher
shops In st. Paul, declared in no I'M
certain terms that they were opposed
to the placing of Otto Rohland, alder
man of the Fifth ward and candidate
for reelection, and H. G. Haas, as
semblyman and a candidate for re-
election, on the unfair list.
. Have Been Fair to Labor.
The resolution passed by the union
recites that the men mentioned are
employing and have been employing
union meat cutters exclusively; that
they have always been fair to organ
lied labor in political matters, and
that therefore it is unjust and an out
rage to declare them unfair. to organ
lied labor because they voted for the
gas franchise; that it was worse than
foolish to make q vote on the gas
franchise a test of unionism.
1t is probable that several other
unions will within the week take like
action as to other candidates who
have been placed on the unfair list.
Even some of the labor leaders, who
declare that they must stand by the
''big game" admit that the assembly
made a mistake in the stand 1t has
taken.
