AT'TEhlP IS SUICIDE.
B. E. HURD OF PINE RIVER CUTS
THROAT ON TRAIN-TAKEN :
TO HOSPITAL HERE.

An unsuccessful attempt at suicide
was made by man named B. E. Hurd,
from Pine River, on train No. y,
Wednesday noon, east of. Royalton, by
slashing his throat with a pocket knife.
The man is now in St. Gabriel's hospi-
tai here for care and he will recover.
Hurd and companion were in the
smoker on the train and suddenly
Hurd drew a knife from his pocket
and slashed his throat, taking a
straight downward stroke. Occu-
pants of the car rushed to his
seat and attempted to get the.
knife away from him and as they did
so he caught hold Of the slashed part
with both hands and attempted to tear
the cash open still more. -:
The wound bled profusely but the
jugular vein was not touched and he
was able to walk from the train as it
reached Little Falls. He was immedi-
ately conveyed to St. Gabriel's hospital
and surgical aid summoned.
A companion of Hurd on the train
disappeared when Hurd had cut his
throat. Hurd got on the train in the
cities and was enroute to Pine River.
AAC ID q -AA0A UOVuS AVA W V1Os
Mr. Hurd's family became anxious
about him when he failed to. come
home Wednesday evening and they in
quired at the Pine River station and
learned that his companion has returned
home. Asking him they were informed
that Mr.. Hurd had been hurt and was
at the hospital in Little Falls. Mrs.
Hurd came down here yesterday morn
ing.
It is the opinion of the attending
surgeon that Mr. Hurd was but tenn
porarily mentally deranged. He would
not talk on Wednesday but yesterday
he talked freely and was perfectly
normal. He said that he remembered
nothing about what had happened ex-
cept that when he left the train some
one held him very fast.

Collector of Internal Revenue at St.
Paul states that in this as in every
other section Of the country, an in
tensive drive for the collection of de-
inquent sales and other miscellaneous
