WANTED TO HANG
Frank The|ke Makes Another At.
tempt at Suicide in County
Jail Tuesday Afternoon
ITALIAN SAVES MANS LIFE

Frank Thelke the old man who es-
capped from the poor farm last Sunday
and who was found at Ranney station
on Monday afternoon after having de-
clared his intention to commit suicide
by throwing himself in front of a
train made another attempt at suicide
in his cell at the county Jail late Tues
day afternoon but he was prevented
from killing himself by Emanuel Cap
pello an Italian who is in jail awaiting
trial on a charge Of robbery.
Thelle had asked for towels in his
cell and his request had been granted.
On Tuesday afternoon Cappello, who
had been advised by the sheriff to keep
watch on the old man, had gone into
his cell to sleep and he was awakened
by the old man walking about the cor
ridor of the Jail. Thinking that the
old man might attempt to do himself
violence, Cappello lay on his cot and
awaited results After a few minutes
he went to the cell occupied by Thelke
and found that he had made rope
OF the towels in the cell and was at.
tempting to hang himself to the jail
door. He had placed the moose about
his neck and had tied one knot about
the grating Of the door but the towel
was too short to allow Of another knot.
Cappello at once released Thelke from
his position and notified the sheriff of
the attempt to commit suicide.
Thelke attempted to fight with the
Italian but the latter easily overpowered
him and placed him in the CELL Thelke
according to the officials Of the jail is
simply blufing and they do not believe
that he is going to kill himself. It
seems that the old man is very much
opposed to living at the city poor farm
and that he is claiming that be is in
sane IN order to get into one of the
state institutions which he believes
will be more to his liking.

Mr.. Claussen may come to Kenosha to
give testimony in the case The COM
ing. of Claussen should be the signal
for great activity in the office of the
District Attorney as it will be remem
bered that there is still a warrant ready
for the arrest Of the. Chicago promoter
and it is just possible that it will be
served when he strikes Kenosha. For
the past six years Claussen has con
sidered discretion as the better part of
valor and has kept out of Kenosha, but
it is said that his attorneys claim that
any charges against him have been

At a Ch[nese E.uneraI.

The London Saturday Journal, in de-
scribing the weird rites at Chinese
funeral, remarks that In the usual
topsy turvy way Of the Orient the
Chinaman enjoys himself even at OBJ
sequies. The Journal adds: The cof-
fin is placed beside the grave and food
placed upon 1t. A white rooster, alive
or dead is usually there, to lure the
spirit Of the man who has died abroad
back to the home of his fathers.
Whisky and tea and a bowl Of rice
with chopsticks are there, so that the
corpse may not starve in the next
world. Gin and tea are then sprinkled
over the coffin, and the bottles thrown
away. The mourners stand around
laughing, enjoying the fun. The coffin
is lowered candles are lit, suit OF
paper clothes is burned, and some pa
per money. Thus the corpse is as
sured Of clothes in the next world, and
pocket money to put in them"

First Aid to Farmers

partment Of agriculture that he had
struggled for 20 years on an S0-acre
farm heavily mortgaged but had been
unable to reduce his debt or rise above
poverty that made the bringing up
OF his family a humiliation.
He asked if there was any hope for
him upon the farm or If he might as
well give up the fight. The depart
ment requested that he make a de-
tailed report of his farm and it's soils
and upon this it based plan of farm
ing which he was recommended to
follow to the letter. According to

SOCIAL LAW THAT is ADAMANT.
Impossible to Be Absent-Minded and
Make a Success.

There are some rules for social sue
cess that it is wholly impossible to
ignore nowadays.
It is the fashion to say everyone is
bad-mannered, and, alas, it is quite
possible to be atrociously rude in
some ways, and vet be popular, but
there are one or two things one cannot
do with any hope of achieving social
distinction or even being merely toll
Grated. These things are hidden,
however from those who fondly mag,
Inc they can initiate all the faults of
society with impunity.
1t is the infringement or ignorance
Of these esoteric bylaws which be-
tray the outsider" One such decree,
for example, is that In no circum-
stances whatever is absent-minded-
ness permissible. One may leave
notes unanswered, but one must not
be absent-minded. This Is q distinc-
ton with a difference.

The yield Of asparagus where the mu-

but with rhubarb the yield of sulphate
was so per cent greater the past year
than on muriate. For raspberries and
blackberries the sulphate has inyaria-

ate. Particularly noticeable has been
the difference in the degree Of winter
killing. The canes from the plot on

seem to have been less hardy than
those where sulphate was used. Sui
