PRISONER ATTEMPTED
TO COMMIT SUICIDE

Bismarck, N. D., June 28.Graham,
the prisoner who escaped from the
county Jail last week and was recaptur-
ed, created more excitement at the
county jail Saturday night by an appar-
ent endeavor to commit suicide, by
hanging himself with a rope made from
strips of blankets from his bed Gra-
ham tore his bedding up into strips
and tied a rope that he fashioned from
them around his neck, his apparent OBJ
ject being to hang himself from the top
OF his cell. The other prisoners re-
ported his actions to the sheriff, who
removed Graham from his suspended
position and took away the means of
further efforts Sheriff Welch thinks
Graham has been trying to work the
insane dodge since his recapture.

a. refutation of the old charge that
men-men of affairs-could not be in

duct. Now, on Tuesday night there
was charming gathering of men in

thereby that the club will live.

therefore the problem lay with the
men. Would they. come? Would they
get into their clothes for evening func-

OF the successful launching-it having
gone forth that members, both men
and women, should enjoy absolute lib
erty of dress. He who prefers to at
tend informal affairs in his sack suit
may do so with perfect impunity even
as he may attend his club in such at
tire. And thus will many busy men
and many busy artists and writer's

dress In contemplate induced to add
their presence to the aggregation of
wit and wisdom.
The question has arisen as to wheth-
er the exponents of the smart set will
attend the club functions where they
will meet the guest unconventional of
the unelect Many believe that those
with brain and culture enough to have
been invited to join the Sequoia will
fraternize freely with the scribblers
and music-makers and artists who
compose a large percentage of the
club. Time, of course, will tell the tale
but the initial reception was indicative
of a good future.
Clubs, not unlike individuals, must
needs have a bank account, that a
