John Carlson, of this city. on Sunday
morning made an unsuccessful attempt
to commit suicide at his home with a
small jack knife. He made several
| slashes in his throat and when discov-
cred it was thought he had accom-.
plished his purpose, but Doctors p ID.
and III. A. Peabody upon arriving were
able to resuscltate the injured man
aud he seems to be on the road to recov-
cry. The attempt at suicide was caused
by dependency over the fact that he
sold farm some time ago and has been
brooding over the fact and it had
afflicted his mind. He died Wednesday
morning at 6 o'clock.
w. H. Chard, the general manager Of
Williams Lumber company Of this city
who have offices and yards in several
places in South Dakota, has resigned
his position, said resignation to take
effect in the near future. Mr.. Chard
has been resident OF Webster for some-
thing over ten years aud during his res
idenos here has proven himself man
Of splendid business ability. His deal
ings have always been on the broad scale
that friend once made was q friend
secured. While he did not marry
Webster lady he chose for wife q lady
whom he met in this city and the fam.
lily have grown to be part and parcel
Of our community. He has always
been one OF the best pushers for every
public enterprise and will be greatly
missed should he decide to remove to
some other locality. His resignation is
not only regretted by his company but
also by practically all of Webster peo-
pie. We are informed that he will go
to North Dakota after he sewers his
connection here and engage in the
banking business with his brother. No
matter where he goes, he and his estim
able family will take with them the
best wishes of all the people of this city
for their future prosperity and hapni-
ness. The Williams Lumber company
has been very successful in securing
successor to Mr.. Chard in the selection
Of Mr.. P. j. Roth, formerly of this city,
who left here about two years ago to
assume the management Of the Tuthill
Lumber company's business in Sioux
Falls. Mr.. Roth was one of the leading
lumber dealers here for q number of
years and by his strict attention to bus
mess, his clear conception of how things
should be and his personal magnetism
built for himself reputation that
made his employers move him to the
larger field in Minnehaha county. While
we sincerely regret Mr. Chard's depart
ure for other fields. we take pleasure in
announcing the return of MIR. and Mrs.
Roth and family to our city.
