DESPONDENT YOUNG WOMAN
ATTEMPTS TO END LIFE

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 26.-"I
will die, you can't prevent it," screamed
Miss Evelyn Hall today as she strug-
gled with her nurses to prevent them
from securing n phial of poison which
she had suddenly caught up from a
secret recess in her bureau. The SEN
sational struggle resulted in making
public the fact that the young woman
had made an attempt at suicide last
Sunday, taking a large amount of poi
son.
The circumstance was suppressed,
the doctors believing she would recover.
Wednesday night she eluded her nurses
and made a second attempt. Last
night her condition had become criti-
cal, and it was decided TO remove her
to the hospital. This aroused her to
the third attempt last night which will
probably result fatally.
The young woman had been out late
Sunday night with her lover, a young
man of the town Differences arose
between them, and she returned home
in a despondent frame of mind.

SATURDAY CARNIVAL

Saturday will be carnival day and
the merrymaking and ollity will pre-
vail throughout the day and last all
night. Already parties are making
reservations for seats at the larger
hostelries and the big cafes for carni-
val night with the intention of enter
ing into the fiesta revelry and partic-
ipating In the round of pleasure.
The street decorations and illumina-
tions for the festival, upon which the
active work has commenced, are to
be more elaborate and gorgeous than
anything attempted in the west. The
green and gold color scheme will be
kept in mind in all the decorations
and the effect has been introduced into
the street illuminations in novel and
beautiful way by means of artificial
roses made of a transparent and wa
terproof fabric fitting over the bulbs
and giving the effect of strings and
garlands of illuminated natural roses
The plan of stringing lights is entirely
new and the whole scheme is original
and very effective.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-08-27

The day decorations on the streets of
the line of march have significance as
we'll as beauty to recommend them;
Fvergreens from the northern and
mountainous part of the state will be
intertwlned with palms from the semi
tropical south and grouped about the
electric light poles, which will be con-
nected with evergreen garlands, flags
and bunting in the yellow and green
of the festival Bear flags and Amer
ican flags will alternate and the drap-
ing is to be Unique and very effective.
In Union square the walks will be
outlined with the garlands of rose
bulbs, giving the effect of an aerial
map Of the square. The Hotel st.
Francis will be blaze of light and
all the buildings around the square are
to be elaboratelv decorated and illu-
minated. The street lights will be lit
for the first time September 1 and will
be kept lit continuously until Sep
tember II.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-08-27
ROSE DECORATIONS

These novel rose decorations are as
pretty in the daytime as at night, and
in considering the day decorations they
were planned as a part of the general
scheme. That the usual unsightly
rows of clothesline effects with the
unornamental bulbs, which usually
mar the effect of the street decorations
in the daytime are not to be seen at
this festival is a matter for which the
festival committee have to thank An
gelo j. Rossi, who, as chairman of the
committee on decorations and illumi-
nations, designed and planned all the
schemes of exterior decorations. Rossi
brings to the work his knowledge and
skill as a florist and professional floral
whom great credit is due for the
decorator, and is a tireless worker to
beauty and economy of the plans.
Rossi claims that the illuminations
will surpass those of the Portola fes-
tiyal, both in beauty and candlepower,
as at least 10 per cent more lights are
to be used and because of the supe-
rior feed wires and other technical fa-
cilities there will be 120 per cent more
illumination. Thirty thousand lights
will be formed into groined arches of
electric garlands and twenty-five miles
of copper wire will go into the wiring.

MIR, and Mrs. II. J. Powell Of Rolling
Fork, she had in her trunk more than
$500 in money, valuable jewelry ana
silverware. She told her parents she
would take a trip for her health, 10
cOmOtOr ataXia having followed a ner-
vous breakdown after the death sever
al years of her husband, T. E. Sims, a
wealthy farmer.
A month later the parents received
a letter bearing marks showing that
it had been mailed at the Armour sub
station in Chicago. The writing was
barely legible and the letter was ramb-
lirg, but enough was deciphered to
show that the writer was near death.
Her Chicago address, however, was not
included.
The father of the woman immediate
ly wrote to a detective agency and the
hunt started. Mr. and Mrs Petty went
from their Mississippi home to aid in
the search, but they say they found
Chicago "cold and uninteresting.
"We have been frozen by Chicago's
hospitality, "Mrs. Patty said. We
find the large city is too busy with its
own affairs to pay much attention to
our hunt for our sister. Our ques-
tions have been answered with an air
which indicated $50 away and don t
bother. Can't you see we are busy. -
What became of Mrs. Sims is a mys-
terry that has puzzled the police. In
her weakened condition it is feared by
some of the detectives that she was
robbed and kept a prisoner in some
place.

Campaign Text
 Books

WASHINGTON, sept E.-The re publican campaign text book was made public today by the republican congressional committee. If it can be taken as a criterion, factional differ- ences in the party are to play no waged by the committee to prevent the next house of representatives be ing captured by the democratic party. From cover to cover there Is no mention of either ''insurgent' or regular"
 IL is a record of the accomplish ments of the republican party in the past, and is particularly laudatory Of the administration of President Taft.
 The Democratic textbook, recently published, contains prominently sev- eral republican speeches, mostly by insurgents, which, it is believed, by the democrats, will aid their party al the polls next November. The re publican book contains not a single democratic speech.
 Of course, the campaign letter Of President Taft to Representative Nc | kinley. chairman of the committee, occupies the place of honor in the re ment of the editor, Francis Curtis upon the issues of 1910. Representa-. tive Boutell of Illinois Is honored by having a long speech republished, in which he discusses the important leg | islation of the last session of con. 1 gress. The Payne tari1 law is warm | ly defended by the printing of la | bles of figures showing increased i'm | portations and revenues, and by speeches delivered by republican members of the ways and means committee
 The conservation question is recog nized as an issue of importance. MT Curtis, writing under the direction oi 1 the committee, gives credit to MT Roosevelt for arousing interest fir this subject, and then declares that ! the Roosevelt idea was put into leg islative form by the enactment ol the land withdrawal bill al the lasI session of congress. and of the lau providing for an isue of s20,D00 900 o bonds to carry on the work of - claiming the arid lands of the West
 A good wGrd for forestry also ii said, but no mention made of Giforc Pinchot, the chief forester of tht United States and friend of Mir Roosevelt. whom President Taft de posed on account of insubordination In fact, you would never guess tha | there was a back from Elba club, or any other disturbing element 1T the republican ranks. even after tht most thorough perpsa of the book.
