Was Great Sufferer From Rheuma-

Special to Times-Republican
Moravia. Dec. 27.-Despondent ana
partially demented as a result of al
most constant suffering from rheuma-
tism, Mrs. Sarah Foote, OF Moravia,
stabbed herself In the throat a num-
Der OF times with a small penknife,
causing wounds from which she died
the same day. Mrs. Foote was so years
of age and resided with her daughter,
Mrs ]. P. Tilmont.
For the past five years, Mrs. Foote
has been a constant and severe suf-
ferer with rheumatism. SO great has
been her suffering OF late that she Is
said to have been partially demented
for the past three weeks. To give her
some relief from her pain she has been
allowed to use morphine and other
drugs.
Saturday she secured possession
Of small penknife. Her hands
were SO drawn and crippled by her
rheumatism that she was unable to
hold the knife and cut her throat, and
she resorted to series of stabs. Catch
ing the pierced flesh in her fingers she
tore the wounds open wider to make
sure of her work. She then drew a
shawl over her throat to hide the
wounds.
Mrs. Tilmont came into the room
while the mother lay bleeding to death
but passed out again without discover
ing her condition short time later
Mrs. Tilmont entered the room, and no.
ticing the blood on the bed clothing
discovered the mothers condition and
sent for physician. Mrs. Foote died
as DR.. r. G. Smith arrived at the resi-
dence which is about four miles west

though it appears that he still has
a serious difference with Viceroy
Alexieff, who has complained in tele-
gram TO the Emperor. which did not
pass through the hands of the mill
tary censorship, that Kuropatkin does
not heed his orders or advice. 1t Is
the general desire that Kuropatkin
