PAPER FOR MOOSE
Muscatine Prisoner Invents 2
Novel Method of Commit
ting Suicide.
BUT IT'S NOT A SUCCESS
His COntOrtiOns Arouse Cellmates
and He Is Cut Down Before
job Is Finished.

Muscatine, Feb. 20. - Twisting
strands Of toilet paper in strong com
/ pact rope, William Truxell, a prison
er in the county Jail attempted sui
eide by hanging himself from the top
of his cell His reason was that he
was soon to be turned out while be
wanted TO stay in Jail for the winter.
The homemade rope would have
done the work had he not aroused his
cellmates by kicking them in the ribs
in his death agony. The other prison
ers awakened in time to take him
down.
This is the second attempt within
the past few days. Wednesday night
James Bryant, arrested on a charge Of
wife desertion, made an attempt TO
end his life by hanging. He made a
rope out of strips OF blankets, his
shoe strings and parts of his suspen-
ders. He was also rescued in time 70
save his life.
EPIDEMIC STARTS.
Sheriff Vannatta deprived the gent
of his suspenders and shoe strings
but not to be out done Truxell with
infinite patience started in 10 get
through ticket out Of his life Bryant
had recovered from his suicidal turn
of mind, but apparently TruxeI. after
thinking over the matter, decided that
he was better of dead.
Not having the material for a rope
out of the ordinary material he took
length of toilet paper and wrapped
IT tightly together, making a strand,
which after he had dampened II, was
about as thick as a knitting needle.
He made a score of these strands.
and carefully braided them together
making a rope which was strong
enough TO bear his weight
JUST IN TIME.
About II o'clock after his cellmates
had retired he attached his Odd rope
to the fiat bar in the top OF his cell,
fixed a nice neat little slip moose,
placed it about his neck and slid on
the bunk. He was pretty well gone
when he kicked one Of the men in the
ribs. This awakened him and he cut
him down.
TruxeIl was serving a 30 day sen
tence in the county jail for ''mooching'
and working a skin game" on the
proprietor Of the Kemble house. He
had but few more days 10 serve and
would have been at liberty shortly
Apparently ne belonged 70 the class
which believes in getting in a good
jail and staying there during the cold
weather. His only complaint was thai
he would shortly be turned out.

The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1911-03-11

Toronto, Can, March 11.-Three men
influential in dominion politics are
directing their EFFORTS energeticlly for
or against reciprocity with the United
States.
Sir James Whitney, prime minister
OF Ontario, and his colleagues still be-
lieve that there is danger Of annexa-
ton in the adoption of the reciprocity
agreement, as evidenced by a resolu-
ton introduced in the provincial par
lament this evening by the premier.
The resolution says:
"Canada's tide of prosperity and
contentment is still rising, and her
position and influence as an essential
part of a consolidated empire are be-
coming more assured. No arrange
ment with a foreign state should be
considered which would even leopard
lie the continuance of her present sat-
isfactory condition, much less this
agreement for reciprocity with the

FARGO men
TO FRONT
Probable That Local Officers
VIII Go to Texas
ARMY IS SHORT OFFICERS
CALL FOR OFFICERS TO DIRECT
TROOPS ALONG THE MEXICAN
BORDER GETS RESPONSE FROM
FOUR MEN FROM FARGO, WHO
MAY GO.

The army depastment at Washing
ton in issuing cali for officers of the
North Dakota National guard to direct
the regular army troops along the
Mexican border. has received a re-
Spouse from four Fargo men. Capt. f.
c. Gearey. jr.. Capt. g. c. Grafton and
Lieut.. Richard Still have definitely an
nounced that they would go If needed.
and Capt. G.. A. Fraser will go if he
can possibly arrange his business af-
fairs so that they will allow him to
make the trip.
The department at Washington has
wired w. G. Trueman, adjutant gen
eral asking how many in this state
could be present at the maneuvers in
Texas, and to this the federal authori-
ties received the following reply:
Every officer in the state can go IL it
is for business, but IL for maneuvering,
they cannot get away"
Captain Fraser, who is a regimental
staff officer. is acting for the adjutant
general in Fargo and the rounds of the
Fargo officers places the above men
in readiness to go. The trip will be
for about six weeks, from the present
indications.
The soldiers gathered along the
Mexican border Is the largest army as
sembled since the war twelve years
ago. Minor and major strategy move
ments win be pulled off on the plains
Of the lone star state and the entire
maneuvering would be a great school
for the national guard officers, many
of whom have seen actual service.
The troops gathered along the border
are short about 500 officers, many Of
the companies having only one com
missioned officer to lead them. The
Fargo men would all probably be given
commands Of companies at their re-
spective rank
The names of these men have been
wired to headquarters at Washington,
with the Recommendation that they
be sent. Just how soon they win get
away is not lS,efe7n. but the men hope
to be on the reaSN ~ the first Of next
week or the middle. at the latest.
One officer in Fargo has compiled a
list Of the officers in the state who can
at this time leave their business and
make the trip. On this list are Colonel
Frame Of Grafton, Captain Sprague of
Grafton, Captain Henry OF Valley City.
Captain Wright of jamestown and
Captain Boyd Of Hillsboro, besides the
Fargo men named.
