Barn In Rear Of NJ. & S. San.
itafium Is Destroyed

A very destructive fire, total loss
unestimated and origin unknown,
broke out in the barn back of the
Medical & Surgical sanitarium on
West Sugar street Tuesday afternoon
at 4:45 O'Clock and it was only by
dint of hard effort on the part of the
fire department that the flames were
kept from consuming adjoining barns
and property. A large tree, the limbs
of which touch both the barn and the
sanitarium, separates the two build
ings and had it been autumn and the
leaves dry instead of green, the sani-
tarium would surely have been con-
sumed.
The entire upper story of the barn
in which were stored numerous house
hold articles, belonging to DR.. and
Mrs. Fisher of the sanitarium, was
burned to mere skeleton of its for
mer appearance. The goods stored
there were consumed practically be-

on about rs Bell telephones had to be

Induced By IIl.Health And
Death OF Husband,
Suicides By Taking Quantity
Of Rough On Rats"

Brandon, June 9-"Rough on Rats"
a deadly poison, taken in small doses
from 3 o'clock until noon, finally
caused the death of Mrs. Minnie
Jackson, residing three miles west of
here ON the Sycamore road between
Brandon and Centerburg, at twenty
minutes of four yesterday afternoon.
That the intents of the woman were
suicidal cannot be questioned, as she
steadfastly refused antidotes and vio-
lently resisted efforts of DR.. B. F.
Humbert to compel her to take these,
stating that she wanted to die. Mel
ancholia, induced by i'll health and a
solitary existence, is assigned as a
motive for the deed.
Since the death of her husband, the
late Waldo Jackson, Mrs. Minnie
Jackson has lived by herself. Neigh
bors have recently noticed her ac-
tions and pronounced them peculiar,
but assumed they were due to re-
cent sickness. Yesterday morning,
Lester Davis. Lock huckster, made
his usual visit to the Jackson home,
but was told by Mrs. Jackson that she
wanted nothing as she was not feel
ing well. Davis proceeded onward to
the residence of Charles Wright,
where he stopped for dinner. After
dinner, he returned past the Jackson
home and noticed Mrs. Jackson lying
on the door step.
Rather alarmed, Davis called to
Mrs. Jackson and asked if she we're
worse. Her reply 81 guess | feel bet
ter" was anything but convincing,
and when Davis reached the home of
Dan Chadwick, he informed Mrs.
Chadwick that Mrs. Jackson was very
sick
Mrs Chadwick hurried over to the
the woman exceedingly sick. Ques
tloning brought forth that Mrs. Jack
son had consumed an entire package
of the poison which is designed for
the purpose OF eXterminating rats
| She stated that the first dose had
been taken at O'Clock in the morn
| ing and that she had continued, al
short intervals, to take small portions
OF the powder, until she became yer!
sick indeed and was forced to rest oil
the door step.
| DR.. Ilumbert of Mt, Vernon wa:
summoned, but met with patient de
termined to block all efforts on hi
part to maintain life, Mrs, Jackson
passed away at 3:40 o'clock.
| The deceased was So years of ag,
and leaves one son, Horace Jackson
o. Elliott street, Mt. Vernon. Th
funeral Thursday morning at 4
o'clock In the Lock Congregations

THREE PEOPLE INJURED
BY Burning Lead of the Falling Tele'
phone Gable

OF the people injured when the
cable of the Mt Vernon Telephone
Co. fell, as mentioned above, proba-
bly, the worst was Mr.. Eliza Cochran.
The heated lead insulation of the
cable struck him a glancing blow on
the face and some of the molten lead
remained there, inficting very severe
burns. It was necessary for ply
sician to dress his injuries. Chief of
Police Parker, who was actively en-
gagged in maintaining order in the
crowd of spectators, had three fingers
of his right hand splashed with the
lead from the cable and suffered
great pain for a while, The cable
struck DR.. H. w. Blair in its down
ward flight and practically ruined a
suit of clothes, burning large holes
in both coat and trousers.

were tossed out of the barn by the
tiremen Among these latter were a

trunks, doors, window sashes, etc.,

valued at between $500 and $4OO' were
stored in the upper part of the barn.
