COOLEST
IN YEARS
Was the Past Winter Says the United
States Crop Bulletin-crops in
Bad Condition.

The past winter will long be remem-
bered as the coolest experienced in
many years, says the United States Ag-
ricultura1 Service for West Virginia,
Some SAL, that the winter 1856 and 80
is the only one to be compared with it.
While the minimum temperatures were
not nearly as low as those previously
reached, the maximum temperatures
were much lower, there being but few
days when they got above the freezing
point. The precipitation was also great
~ deficient and was mostly in the form
of snow. December was the coolest of
which there is any record, the mean be-
ing s A degrees below the normal; the
precipitation was alsot NOR than one
inch below average. November. jan
nary and February were all cold months
with precipitation considerably deficient.
The mean temperature and precipitation
for March were above the normal.
Reports indicate that winter wheat.
rye and grass are in very poor condition.
and that some fields win have to be
plowed up. Owing to drougnty condi-
tions in September, blowing and seeding
were greatly delayed, and were not COM
pleted until the middle of October. Dry
weather during the rest of the month,
and the first half of November, was not
favorable for growth. The dry, cold
weather of December, January and Feb
ruary, with not much protection from
snow. also had very injurious effect.
No blowing or other farm work was done
up to the first of March. The mild
weather and good showers of the fourth
week started vegetation. and at the
close of the month, grass was green,
fruit buds were beginning to swell, a
little blowing had been done, and few
potatoes planted. Stock wintcrsd fairly
well, but feed was getting very scarce.
The prospects were never better for a
good fruit crop of all Kinds. It is not
believed that the freeze of the 9th and
ssth did any damage to frnit US it was
quite backward.

Miss ces Williams. an Orphan
says s. Has no Friends. Tires Of
Lie and Takes Big Dose of Car
bolic Acid i'm Her Room
on Clark Street.
Scent causes Her to be Discovered Living Uncon-
scious on Her Bed. but Physician Uses
Stomach Pump bnt is Thought
to be Dying.

a mysterious attempt at suicide nap
pened in Glen Elk at about eleven o'clock
Thursday morning. There is no ex-
PLANTATION for it, except what the one
who tried it has to say about it herself,
and that does not appear a very log
ical reason for ending ones life, although
the mind may in fits of dependency
reach that desperate stage.
Miss Agnes Williams, an orphan girl
about % years of age, is the one who
tried to shuttle Off this mortal coil. She
appears TO have attempted the rash act
about eleven o'clock, although the exact
time is not definitely known. She is a
domestic at the Waldo hotel and makes
her home at the residence of Claude
HALEY, on Clark street. She was in her
room at the time she attempted to take
her life and was discovered by Mrs.
HALEY, who smelt something she thought
to be carbolic acid. She went to the
young lady's room. opened the door
and was Mortified to see her lying on
the bed in rather careless fashion. but
more Mortified was she. when she spoke
to her and received no response. Then
she say a bottle of carbolic acid nearby.
and becoming thoroughly alarmed. she
hurried to the homes of her neighbors
and summoned them to the girls room.
They used home remedies until Dr.
Chester r. Ogden could arrive. He came
about 1890 and although Miss Williams
had been unconscious an hour and a
half. he applied the stomach pump in a
way and administered such restoratives
as brought her to consciousness, after
considerable difficulty and much hard
work.
When she was sufficiently revived to
talk. she. was asked what had driven
her TO this awful act, and in reply she
states that she had no friends and
wanted to die. Further than that she
had no explanation to make and her
frineds can account for ner actions in no
other way. She is young lady of
splendid reputation and had no cause
than that assigned for her wanting to
end her life. so far as those who are ac-
quainted with ner know.
1t is remarkable that she did not die
as the dose taken by her was fully three
,easpeonsfu'. mad doubtless she would
have now been corpse. If it had not
been for the timely discovery by Mrs.
HALEY.
Miss Williams has been a resident of
this city three or four years. She for
meriy was a domestic at the st. Charles
hotel.
AT first it was'thought the young lady
might get well, but about three o'clock
in the afternoon DIR. Ogden was sum-
;moned again 10 her bedside and her con-
sdition is alarming. Tt is not believed
she car recover. in fnct. she is thought
to be dying at press hour.
