Husband ChOkes Wife Probably Saw

BY choking his wife until she al
most lost consciousness, w. j. Man
of Venice probably saved her life.
Mrs. Man, following a quarrel with
her husband, attempted to swallow a
bichloride of mercury tablets, but
Man cluched her by the throat and
choked with all his strength to pre-
vent the tablets from going down.
He succeeded in forcing her to spit
out most of the tablets, but it is fear
ed she swallowed three or four.
Mar attended a smoker the other
night and returned home early in the
morning. His wife accused him of
having been elsewhere. They quar-
relied and Man says his wife picked
up a revolver and threatened to
shoot him. He wrested the weapon
away, %whereupon Mrs. Man ran to
] the bathroom and swallowed the bi
chloride of mercury tablets.
