Complete degradation of the present
German government and establish.

COMMITS SUICIDE
BY TAKING CARB0LIC ACID

This community was shocked to
learn yesterday morning that on We'd
nesday evening, Carl Heise, son of
Frank Heise of the town of Rib Falls
had committed suicide by drinking
carbolic acid. 1t seemed hardly possi-
BILE to be true; for even that very fore
noon he had been here in town with
his father on business and had ap-
peared in his usual good health and
spirits.
The deceased was forty years old;
he was still single man, living with
his aged parents and running the farm.
No one seems to know the cause that
led the unfortunate man to his rash
deed. Undoubtedly his, mind must
have been temporarily deranged by
some cause or other, dependency or
worry over one thing or another, no
one can tell. The deceased was last
seen alive at about four o'clock, when
he went to the barn as usual to dc
the chores, as his parents thought
When he failed to appear at the sup
per table his parents called for him
and as he didn't answer nor come
to the house, they looked for him in
and around the barn and finally found
him PROSTATE behind the barn, ap.

on account of pressure of business

unable to do in January. The work
here was light and all came under
