Attempts Suicide.

Butte, April 17.-Angered by
her mother, who had spoken some
cross words, Mrs. Phil Averitt
attempted to commit suicide Satur-
day afternoon by swallowing the
contents of four ounce vial of
disinfecting fluid. The attempt at
self-destruction was made in the
presence of the woman's mother
and her eight year old daughter.
Two physicians were hastily sum-
moned and the stomach pump used,
after which antidotes were ad-
ministered. While the woman's
mouth and lips are badly burned
she will recover.
Mamma had been scolding me
all day." said Mrs. Averitt, after
wards, in explanation of her rash
action; II simply could not stand
it any longer, so l drank that
pointing to the poison.
Mrs. Averitt and her mother had
some differences over family
matters. and the mother took her
daughter to task. The daughter
bore the rebuke silently for some
minutes, then suddenly became
violently angry.
Selling the bottle of disinfectant
fluid that stood on a table near by,
Mrs. Averitt held it to her lips and
drank it to the bottom. After
wards she threw herself upon a
couch and wept Historically.
1t was several minutes before
Mrs. Averitt's little daughter real
lied what had happened. When
she understood that her mother had
attempted to take her own life, the
child threw her arms about her
parents neck and sobbed piteously.
open your eyes, mamma,
begged the little girl between sobs.
In her childish way she pleaded
with her mother, asking her not to
die. The girl cried bitterly and
refused to be consoled until the
suffering mother opened her eyes
and assured her that she was not
going to die.
Mrs. Averitt is the wife of a
lawyer of Rexburg, Idaho.

During the past two weeks Sena-
,or Hepburn has been making a
vigorous fight against the proposed
Shoshone forest reserve. After
having a personal interview with
President Roosevelt. he submitted
in writing the following argument
in support of his contentious, which
is clear and able presentation of
the reason why the proposed re-
serve should not be made:
TO the President:
Pursuant to our conversation
relative to the withdrawal of the
proposed Shoshone forest reserve,
| in Shoshone county, Idaho, and the
statements concerning the reasons
for its creation made by the repre-
sentatives of the general land office
and the forestry department. on
the evening of March 80, ultimo,
at White House, desire to suggest
| that the attitudes within such with
drawal are, except as to the noun
tain peaks and higher levels of
approach thereto, easily within the
| limits of successful and convenient
settlement.
The altitude at Wallace, Idaho,
lis 2726 feet! This would apply to
the valley of the South fork of the
Coeur d'Alene river in vicinity
Of several miles extent, the altitude
gradually decreasing down said
valley to lake Occur d'Alene.
which has an altitude Of about 21OO
feet.
The proposed withdrawal which
lies to the south of the said river
beginning at Wallace, except as to
the mountain peaks. which consti-
tute only a small portion of the said
proposed withdrawal, has general
Elevation of less than 5000 feet,
and there are vast quantities of
land within the proposed with
drawal ranging in elevation from
35O0 to 1000 feet. That said eleva-
lions are entirely within the range
Of, not only possible but comforta-
ble settlement and residence, may
be gathered from a comparison
with elevation of other extensive
Preas of settlement within the
United States, having a much less
Omfortable climate than the por-
hon of Idaho under consideration.
In Wyoming the vast plains
hpon which Cheyenne, Laramie
hnd Rock Creek, and other centers
pf population are located, are all
fbove 5000 feet, Cheyenne being
PlO5, Laramie City, 1853, Rock
Greek 67O8. In Colorado the great
plains and wheat fields about
Denver have an elevation exceed
ing 5000 feet. In the North
valley the elevation is above 5000,
feet. South Park, Colorado, IS
Rbove 5000, feet; the Gunnison
valley IS aboev 1000 feet; Colo
Fado Springs is above 5000 feet;
