TEACHER TRIES suicide
Miss TOrr at Brunswick Swal-
lows Cyanide Regrets
the Attempt

You'll have to sign your
death warrant" said the druggist
iokingly to Miss Torr, teacher
at the Brunswick high school,
last week when she went to buy
some cyanide of potassium as she
stated, for the purpose of clean
ing some silver. Miss Torr
answered the druggist and sign
ed the usual form demanded by
the state law on sale of poisons
and went to her home. Shortly
after, she took the poison and
was only saved from death by
the strenuous efforts of a ply
sician.
The incident was decided
surprise and shock to the friends
Of the young woman who taught
in the teacher training depart
ment of the school, which was
added to the curriculum this
year. She had been doing good
work but in spite of this, was
obsessed with the idea that she
was not doing as we'll as she
ought. This feeling became so
strong that she made an attempt
to end her existence.
Miss Torr went up town to
get the cyanide in the powdered
form. She could not get it in
this form until about the third
druggist she visited. When
asked what she wished to do
with it she said she wished to
clean some silverware. The
druggist conversed with her a
while and joked about signing
the statement that each person
must when they get poison and
she then left for home.
Upon arriving home, Miss
Torr undressed and went to bed,
She had placed the poison in a
, capsule and then swallowed the
! capsule. A child going near hel

summoned help. Entrance tc

HOLY CITY.
At Last Monroe City Is to Have a
Truly Great Show. Best and Big
eest In the History of the
Local Theatre. A ORA
matte Story Power
fully Told.

Few, if any, of the Biblical plays
have had life of more than two or
three seasons. The fact that Clar-
ence BENEFITS Holy City" after
four years of growing success is to-
day a stronger attraction than ever,
and that its return dates are greet
ed everywhere with crowded houses,
proves that it has in it something
of real and powerful dramatic
worth, outside of its religious inter-
est. 1t is not mere curiosity to see
a play out of the ordinary, a sort of
dramatic innovation, that causes
the great public to 60 to see it
again, and that makes each one
who has seen it an enthusiastic ad-
vertiser for it. The real reason for
this is, that outside of the fact that
it narrates the most dramatic and
thrilling incidents in the history of
the world, a story that is inwoven
with the very fiber of our faith and
our hope for time and eternity, it
tells that story with such an earn
est, devout and reverential spirit
that it disarms the criticism OF the
most religious, and at the same
time develops that grandly tragic
theme in such a powerful dramatic
way, giving such splendid opportu-
mites for superb acting, telling so
wildly the story of a beautiful, pas
sionate willful woman'S love, hate,
revenge, remOrse and triumph, pre-.
senting it all with such life.like sur
roundings of beautiful oriental see
merry, gorgeous costumes and splen-
did stage settings and dramatic
climaxes and wonderful stage STU
ations, that, aside from its religious
interest, it stands alone upon its
dramatic merits as one of the great
est, strongest, most thrilling and in
teresting dramas of modern times.
The beauty of its language, scintil-
lating with gems of elequence and
poetic expression, its wonderful por-
trayalS of character and expression,
running the entire scale of human
emotions from laughter to tears,
from mirth to horror, from hope to
despair, from love to hate. from Joy
to death! These all appeal directly
to the heart and make US forget
that it is only play. To us, for
the time being, it becomes a living
reality. With a large and powerful |
cast of excellent actors, most gorge |
GUS costumes, elaborate scenery and |
surroundings, it is a real play. Mr. |
Bennett, himself, will appear here in |
the dual role of John the Baptist |
and Judas, supported by Pauline
Harice in the characterization of |
Salome. At Hays opera house,
