James venters, an employe of the

Coroner Crow was called and went
up and empaneied a jury. but there
was nothing to show who the man
was or where he came from He was
probably drowned OFF some steam

THE NEXT MOVE
WRIT OF PROHIBITION MAY BE
TAKEN BY THE CTTY'S AT
TORNEY.
They May Ask Court of Appeals to
EDioin the Circuit Court
Here.

The decision of Circuit Judge w
NJ. Reed temporarily restraining the
board of aldermen of Paducah from
further proceedings against City
Jailer Tom Evitts, does not necessar.
.iy stop the case where it is.
Attorneys for the city claim that
they can now take out a writ of pro-
hibiton. in the court of appeals at
Frankfort. KY, and have the circuit
court here restrained from interfering
with the aldermen in the discharge
of what they believe to be their duty
in the case.
This being the appellate courts re-
cess, the temporary restraining order
would be good until the court meets
in the fall, and would have the oppo.
site effect to that of the present order,
and enable the board of aldermen to
proceed.
1t was stated today that the at
torneys have not decided what they
will do, but the probability is they
will take out the restraining order IN
the court of appeals in few days.

HIS CHILD I'LL
DYER COUNTY, TENN, MAN AT
TEMPTED SUICIDE.
He win Recover But His Daughter
Died Two Hours After the
Attempt.

Dyersburg, Tenn, Aug. Den
mis- +. Sawyer, a well known citizen
of the county, took morphine on
the streets of Dyersburg, with sui
cidal intent. He purchased the dead
ly drug at the store of the Taylor
Drug company and walked to the
Office of lawyer friend, who has
his business in charge, and told his
friend that he had called by to tell
him good bye and to see him for the
last time. His attorney at first paid
no attention to his remarks but as
he repeated them, saying that he
would not be on hand as a witness
in a certain case at the next court,
the lawyer watched him a little clio
ser after he left the Office.
Sawyer proceeded but few steps
from the Office when he was seen to
take something from his pockets and
swallow it. His legal friend then
stepped into the drug store near by
and upon inquiry was informed that
Sawyer a short time before had pur-
chased nine grains of morphine.
Drs. Watson and Ferguson were
called by the attorney to proceed to
the house of Mr.. Sawyer and watch
his symptoms. Sawyer lives on De-
pot street and had hardly reached
home before the drug began to take
effect. He had just bgun to doze
off when the doctors applied the sto-
mach pump and emptied his stom-
ach OF its contents and restored him.
He had taken the nine grains Of
morphine.
Sawyer gave to his attorney as his
reason for attempting suicide that he
had daughter lying at the point Of
death and as the doctors had inform
ed him that she could not live till
night, he was so distressed about IL
that he did not care to live. The
] daughter died about two hours after
her father attempted suicide. Care
full watch will be kept to see that
Sawyer has no opportunity to re-
peat his effort to kill himself.
