Overdose Of Poison Does Not Have
Desired Effect and She is ReViv-
ed by Physician.
HAD BEEN OUT OF WORK
Miss Mabel Schumacher, IA Waitress,
Tries Suicide in Local Hotels
Discovered by Chambcrmaid-Had
Taken Four TabIets of BichlOride
OF Mercury-Now Out of Danger.

Presumably despondent over Ill
fortunes which had attended her
Miss Mabel Schumacher a waitress well
known here, this morning made an
unsuccessful attempt to take her life
by swallowing four bichloride of mer-
curry tablets 1t was probably the
largeness of the dose which prevent
ed her accomplishing her end as her
stomach refused to hold the sicken-
inc poison. a
The suicidal attempt was made
shortly before IL o'clock in room
of one of the local hotels which she
had been occupying since yesterday
in company with Miss Elna Mcleod
The chambermaid had previously
changed the linen on the bed, ana
upon her return to complete her WORK
found the door locked and heard
groans within the room. Summonlng
assistance she entered the room ana
discovered Miss Shumacher lying on
the bed in great agony.
DR. l. u. Temple was called imme-
diately, but before he had arrived the
would-be suicide had vomited the
poison. Under the ministrations or
the physician, she soon rallied ana,
within half an hour after she had
swallowed the tablets, was out OF
danger.
Upon reviving, she expressed regret
that she had not succeeded in her
purpose. and, upon being informed
that she had taken too severe dose
she remarked that sne wished she
had taken only two tablets. Dr..
Temple states that she took seven
grains of the poison, which would
unquestionably have nroved fatal had
she been able to hold it in her stom-
ach.
The Young woman has worked IN
local restaurants at different times
but had been absent from the city
for some time until Sunday when she
arrived on No. Il from Huntington
Accompanying her was a man by the
name OF Joe Phillips, whom she de-
clared afterwards she had met on the
train. She took a room in the CO.
lumb'a lodging house that night ana
the next morning appeared in the po-
lice office adm complained to ChleL
Kearnev that Phillips had visited her
in her room, that the two had con-
sumed much beer supplied them by
Leila Todhunter landlady pro tenn Oh
the lodging house, and that after her
companion had made her intoxicated,
ne robbed her of $40 which she had
in her purse.
Her story led to the filing OF a
charge of selling liquor without Ii
cense against Leila Todhunter but the
case was dismissed when the witness
es, all except Miss Shumacher, con-
tradicted their original statements to
the officers.
Since then Miss Shumacher has
been trying to secure position put
has been unsuccessful in her quest.
1t is supposed that, being despondent
over the loss of her money and her
failure to secure a position, she de-
cided to end her sorrows by SELL
imposed death.

WANT GOVERN MENT
HORSES FED ALFALFA

Because the reclamation service
horses at Hermiston have been fed on

alfalfa hay raised upon the project

IS taking the subject up with Director
Newell of the reclamation service to

to get desired action from H. ID. New

In a communication to the direc-

secretary of the board, sets forth that
to feed the government horses al
falfa hay would be cheaper, would an

the horses in condition, would keep

badly needed and would also save the
settlers the humiliation of having the
