PRIsoNER TRIEs SUICIDE
eashed His Throat, Temples and Alb.
domen With Dull Knife.

Gashed His Throat, Temples and Alb
domen With Dull Knife.
Baltimore, Nd. June 21. - Louis
Mossler, who was held at a police sta
ton on charges of obtaining money un-
der false pretenses and of embezzle-
ment attempted to commit suicide by
gashing his throat, temples and abdo-
men. That he was not successful is due
to the fact that the knife was a dull
one sent into his cell With a meal pro-
cured for the accused man at a neigh
boring restaurant. The charges are
that he had sold whiskey to saloon
keepers in various parts of the city,
collecting a part of the bill in advance,
and that the whiskey failed to reach
the purchasers. He is also accused Of
obtaining money by false pretenses
and with embezzlement from a local
distilling company. While the cuts he
inflicted upon himself are not deep
enough to endanger his life, one Of the
two in his throat split the larynx, and
the physicians say that Mossler will
probably never again be able to speak.
He made a sweeping denial Of the
charges against him before the at
tempt upon his life.

THANKS FOR ALL THESE.

We have much to be thankful for
this year as a nation. We have
much reason to be thankful to the
great God above for the marked
turning of the hearts of men these
days towards their Creator and Re
deemer as seen in the widespread
revivals which especially seem to
appeal to men; for the quickening of
the public conscience as seen in the
protests against bossism and graft
manifested in our recent elections,
and in the persistent probing of the
life insurance iniquities; for the re-
cent victories for the cause of tenn
perance as seen in Ohio where a
Republican saloon man was badly
beaten by Democratic temperance
man for Governor; and in the recent
order of Mayor Jones of Minneapolis
closing the saloons on Sunday. and
his more recent order forbidding
the sale of liquor in the brothels.
L. F. BADGER.
