YOUNG MAN ALL RIGHT
Did Not Take Enough Poison to Do
Serious Harm.

Art Van Cleavern, the young man
who attempted suicide at the Central
Holiness University, Monday after
noon, was not in such a critical con-
dition as was first thought, as he
only took a very sman quantity Of
rat biscuit" .'..' >.ya
The young mans home is near Ed
dyville and he has been paying at
tention to young girl, employed at
the Walter Said home. He came
wooing to the University Sunday and
his attentions We're not agreeable.
After the girl had told him that she
no longer wished his company he
left the University but returned late
Monday morning. He came to the
house where the young lady worked
about noon and asked for a drink.
When the girl handed it to him he
did not drink it, but wanted to know
if she wouldn't receive him again.
After this unsuccessful attempt to
regain her love he left Later in the
afternoon he was found near the dor
mitOry lying on the ground, kicking
and groaning. He was taken into
the dormitory. where he stated that
he had eaten some rat biscuit"
Physicians were called and under
their treatment his stomach soon
threw off the poison and he seemed
much better. 1t is thought that the
mans intentions were to scare the
girl into a change of heart.
The young lady refused to be in
terviewed and the town authorities,
including Mr.. Farnsworth, the town
marshal, refused to say anything
regarding the matter. The father
and sister of the young man arrived
Monday afternoon from their home
in Eddyville, and after the full details
of the case were learned, the young
man was allowed to accompany them
home. 1t is understood that the
town marshal arrested the young
man in the morning and relieved him
of a large revolver, after which he
ordered him out of town.
