The election at Modena is going to be
right close. After examining the situa-
ton through the magnifying glass it is
disclosed certainly that there will be six
votes for Bryan, five for Taft and one
Socialist. The Republicans are for quar-
antining the latter, but the Democrats
have purchased a can of antiphlogistine
and expect to draw his vote.
State politics are not so much thought
of. The gubernatOrial vote is in doubt

WOMAN TRIES TO
COMMIT SUICIDE
Mrs. Charles P. Minor SWaI-
lows ChlOrOform on Receiving
News of Brothers Death.

Grief over the receipt of news of the
sudden death of her brother. in addition
TO dependency over continued i'll health,
drove Mrs. May Minor. wife of Charles p.
Minor. one of the managers of the Empire
theatre. TO attempt to end her life by sui
eide about II o clock last night. She swal-
lowed nearly an ounce of chloroform and
is in extremely critical condition.
Mrs. Minor, who is an unusually attrac-
tive woman of about % years of age. at
tempted the Self-destructiOn in her apart
ment, No. 8. in the Hooper & Eldredge
block, No. 40 Main street. She has brood
ed over her i'll health for some time past
the news from her father that her brother
had died suddenly at her old home in
Quincy. III.
Returning home from his theatrical bus
mess at 1870 last night. her husband,
Charles P. Minor. was Mortified to see his
wife lying on the kitchen floor with an
empty chlOrofOrm bottle clutched tightly
in her hand. He tried to arouse her. but
found her in a deadly stupor. though
close examination proved that life was
not wholly extinct.
Milk was dashed over her face by the
frantic husband and also poured down her
throat. but his efforts gave no encour-
agement. He then rushed out of the block
and down to the police headquarters. He
informed the police that he wanted some
physician in hurry as his wife was dying
from attempted suicide.
DR.. Frank b. Steele was hurriediy
reached, and was soon working over Mrs.
Minor. Electrician Shelley of the fire
department was called with his electrical
apparatus. and the current was poured
into her body. Both DR.. Steele and Elec-
trician Shelley worked for over an hour
before faint signs of life were shown.
Mrs Minor was quiet and attractive
woman. who was well liked by all who
came in contact with her. She was often
heard to remark that her brother in her
Illinois home was very dear TO her. The
shock of learning of his death drove he''
to desperation. Mr.. Minor admitted that
his wife has shown frequent signs of de-
spondency of late because her health had
been failing.
