FEARS ARREST; TAKES POISON.
Mrs. Selma Shook Attempts Life
After Policeman Arrives.

Fear of arrest on a charge of assault
is believed to have prompted Mrs. Selma
Shook, thirty-two years old, of 420
Kenyon street to swallow something
which she said was poison yesterday
afternoon.
Policeman c. H Tucker of the tenth
precinct was in the Shook home at the
time and gave "frst-aid" treatment,
which, it is believed, will possibly save
the woman's life. She is at Garfield
Hospital, where it was stated last night
she is expected to recover.
Mrs. Rosa Ferry, whose husband,
Harry Ferry, conducts store at 4O15
9Th street. secured a warrant at the
Police Court Friday for Mrs. Shocks
arrest on charge of assault Po-
liceman Tucker read the warrant to
Mrs. Shook at her home shortly after
o'clock. She then asked him to go
up stairs and read it to her husband.
After the policeman had done so, it is
stated. Mrs. Shook entered the room
and stated she had taken poison The
policeman forced salt and water down
her throat and then called the auto
mobile of the tenth precinct and she
was removed to the hospital.
