OUR OLD FRIEND FRANK.

Joe Koasee'ft l.ightiiing liarbcr Attempts Sulcitli* in I.afny-tte.

The following from the Lafayette Sunday Time# will interest the many acquaintances of Frank Moore, who who for a long time held a chair in Fossie's barber shop: "No ghastly l'egasus bore Benjamin Frank Moore in his remarkable effort, yesterday morning, to prematurely probe the the Hereafter. But upon the legs that nature gave him this well known young i*an set the pace for the grim destroyer in his endeavors to escape those who would hold him to the bond of earthy existence. Think of self sought surcease with tlie stomach stirring elements of arsenic. "Rough on Rats'» and poisonous lly- paper water! Well, all these were flagged and represented on Moore's suieidel programme, and it primarily required the sprinting efforts of Metropolitan police and citizens to capture, and. subsequently, the active engineering of a stomach pump, and the heroic administration of most effective antidotes to reduce the irritated interior of the would be dead man to a condition that would permit of time for recuperation.

Dr. J. D. Ilillis. called to relieve Moore if the first paroxysms superinduced by the medley of poisons, and still attending the patient at the home of the latter's mother, Mrs. Stephen Moore, No 74 Brown street, was last night much more inclined to believe that the sufferer would recover than during the day. While still complaining of occasional violent pain in the stomach region Moore, at o'clocklast night, called for fond, and swallowing the same was able tonvoid vomiting.

Dr. Ilillis noted other favorable indications that the poison's ravages were checked, ami were it not for the possibilities of inflammation there would be hardly a doubt -of Moore's recovery. As it is it appears, from latest report, that tlie chances for life are with him. It is of various surmise, but unauthentic, the reasons for Moore's gloomy views of a mundane career. Disappointment in a love affair is especially set lip in theory, but as the principal actor in yesterday's exciting scene is not now prone to interviewing, the guessers may grope for the time being. His recent eccentricity is not Moore's only claim to fame, for in the days of riot trials he he was uot the least of illuminants on the A. P. A. side. By trade he is a barber, of late in business on north Ninth street."

Some evil Nemesis seems to pursue the barbers of Mr. l'ossee's tonsorial emporium. Frank Moore committed suicide, Mart Kernoodle was murdered in Arkansas and Will Armstrong has a fast horse.

Always in Hand.

The petition which has been so successfully presented to the citizens of the town, praying the city council to appoint the new military company 1! policeman without pay, and then uniform such of them as are unable to uniform themselves, will be submitted to the council to-night. The idea strikes us very favorably. If carried out as proposed, we will have a posse always on hand in case the Chief of Police has need of assistance. It practically increases his forces to more than one hundred active, willing and able-bodied specials. To bring them out enmasse or in detachments he lias only to telephone the captain of the company.

The Tat-tl itial Fight In thu Tenth Indiana at an End.

The complication in the Republican Congressional politics, which in the Tenth District, lias been giving Republicans much concern since the nomination of Charles B. Landis at the Hammond convention, which was bolted by the friends of Judge William Johnston, is clearing up. Mr. Landis Saturday addresseil the folio wing letter to the district chairman:

DKI.I-IU, lud., July 211-—'To Hon. Charles Harley, chairman Tenth District Republican committee, Delphi, Ind. 1H:Alt Snt: I hereby tender my resignation as the Republican candidate for Congress for the Tenth Congressional District of Indiana. 1 actively sought the nomination, believing I might do the district some service and myself some credit, but I feel that the situation in several counties is such as to jeopardize the success of the Republican ticket. This, of course, would involve the candidates for the Legislature. While 1 have felt, and still feel, that 1 could be elected myself. 1 cannot permit my personal ambitious to stand in the way of general Republican success. In resigning this nomination, tendered and accepted, I am not unmindful of the high honor conferred upon me by the convention, nor am I unaware of the fact that this action will earn me criticism of some of my most ardent supporters who have displayed the greatest enthusiasm and courage in my behalf. For them 1 have the deepest sense of obligation and feel that 1 can never make adequate return for their devotion, but that 1 am bettercposted on the situation in the various counties than they, and trust that time will vindicate the wisdom of my course. Very truly yours, CHAKI.ES B. LANDIS.

The chairman has issued a call for tlie district committee to meet at Logansport to-morrow for the purpose of fixing a time for another convention to nominate Mr. Landis' successor.

SUSPECT HOLLOWAY.

Ill* Mother Tearfully Talks of Iler ISoy— A Sad Picture.

Terre Haute E.rjirc- When poor old Mrs. Holloway, the mother of Ed llolloway, learned that the suspect had confessed to the terrible crime she was almost crazed with grief. The frail old woman, whose wrinkled face and haggard appearance told the story of trouble and hunger, formed a sad pictare as she wrung her bony hands and between sobs attempted to express her sorrow and speak good words for her suspect son. The Indianapolis Pcuple prints the following as Mrs. Holloway's talk:

Is it true that he's done confessed that he threw the switch'.' I can't make it out. He was just the peacefulest boy. This was his first trip braking on the road. I didn't want him to go. with all this trouble going on, but said he, ••mother." says he, "I've got to do something." 1 wanted to go to work myself so he wouldn't have to go, but lie would go. So they took him back, did they? Poor boy. I feel so sorry for him. I feel sorry for anyone that was mean enough to do a wicked thing like that, and—it's my boy! It's mv boy! I haven't enough in the house to buy a meal and I can't go and see him.

Charley Hays, charged with selling liquor on Sunday, was up before Mayor Baudel this morning for trial. Hays took a change of venue to Chumasero's court in order to gain time, whereupon Mayor liandel threw a bombushell into his camp by asking bond for $300 for his appearance at trial before the Justice. This paralyzed Hays who, being unable to furnish the bond, pleaded guilty and was dressed up, to the amount of S-0 and costs. y:

DEPOPULATED BY OPIUM.

At the Present Rat* That Will Soou H« the Condition of Thmc French Ielnods. W. Iloffner, for two years manager of the Societe Commerciale, which owns large stores on the Marquesas and Dominique islands, lately arrived hero, says the San Francisco Chronicle, livery two or three months Mr. Iloffner was in the liabit of cruising in a boat around these islands, making numerous landings. This has made him exceedingly familiar with the islands and their inhabitants. He says that the natives are dying off very rapidly by reason of the use of opium and that in a slioit time there will be none left. The past year has made fearful inroads on them. "The deaths have been so frequent," said Mr. Iloffner, "that 'ly the French government has 1 doing all It could to suppress tiie opium habit, but with meagre success. It hinders it in some ways, but in the main it is carried on as before. The French government introduced eplum into the islands about twenty years ago. and now a vain effort is being made to stamp out the evil. It is, however, too lato to remedy the wrong. "The natives are dying off iike flies.

In ten years, if the present rate of mortality keeps up, there will not be one of them left. The last few years have been especially severe and made terrible inroads on the population. Where the natives cannot get opium to satisfy their cravings, they substitute a brandy obtained from the eoeocoanut tree, which is even Worse than the product of the poppy juice. The liquor ia nothing, in fact, but the natural sap ot the coeoanut tree. The islanders bore holes in the tree, and the sap almost immediately begins to run. This process kills the tree, but they do not care for that. The liquor is stronger than opium, aDd I have seen the poor native drunk on it and lying about like dead men fox tluee or four (lays. "They do not smoke the opium, but eat it, and in enormous quantities. They eat so much of it and have such abnormal cravings for it to the exclusion of almost every other desire, that they do not buy the amount of general oierchandise they ordinarily would. As a result, business is bad in the islands. Trade, outside of opium, has fallen off a great deal, and the people seem to have lost the energy and desire to advance that they once had. It is so quiet there now that I think I shall return to Chili, where I was before. When the native population is wiped out altogether, as now seems to be its fate, the islands will be an excellent field for emigration. I am not sure that at present the French government would encourage immigration."

Mr. Hoffner says there are now very few Americans on5e islands.

A JEALOUS WIFE.

Why She Never Doubts Her Husband's Love.

"I wouldn't marry her, if I were you!" That was the gist of his friend's counsel, spoken or Implied. They all admitted her graces of person, heart and mind. But the undeniable fact of her jealousy remained. "A jealous woman," his aunt assured him, "can make any man miserable." "A Jealous wife," declared his nearest friend, will make you wish vou had taken my advice, which is that the immortal Weller gave to his son. 'Don't marry a vidder,' he said. 'Go hang yourself first, an' you'll bo glad on it arterward!' I am presumptuous enough to paraphrase that: 'Go hang yourself before you marry a jealous woman, and you'll be glad on it afterward!'

But Harold Groves had only laughed. When was a man or a woman in love ever apt to listen to anything so disagreeable as common sense? Aud he was in love, honestly, sincerely aud passionately. So he married Xorine Hale, and was most ridiculously happy for two years. Their life together wes simply ideal. His few faults he corrected. If faults she had, they remained undiscovered by him. One day he summoned courage to tell her the remarks that had been made concerning her jealous disposition.

She looked up at him with grave, shining eyes. I do love loyalty," she replied, simply.

And it may be he would never have discovered at all that Norine was jealous if it were not for the burglarv.

Harold Groves was a lawyer!. lie transacted much of his business at home, and had in his study a large desk, In which he kept papers of importance, deeds and memoranda relating to the affairs of his ulients. The desk looked sadly untidy, aud, in the opinion of Norine, was a decided blot in the exquisitely neat little room, where some of their pleasantest hours were spent. "llarold," she said to him one evening, as she leaned over his chair, and smoothed back his dark locks caressingly with her pretty white fingers. "I really shall tidy up that desk one of these days. The litter of dusty papers, books and pipes is postively disgraceful."

He gave her a glance of alarm. "Don't—for mercy's sake, dearest! I know now where to put my hand on everything 1 want—don't!"'"

But the fear that she might do so induced him to lock his desk, and keep it locked thereafter. Norine noticed it and laughed. "At least you have shut the disorder out of sight," she avowed, gayly. "My threat was efficacious to that extent. Indeed, dear, how you can ever tell one of those tiresome documents of yours from another, is a mystery to me."

A certain blue, starlit March night they went upstairs, leaving the cozy apartment in dainty order. During the night Norine was awakened by what soundod like a click. She sat bolt upright in bed. "Hark!" she breathed. "Listen, Harold!"

Both listened intently. "It is a very cold night," he said, at length. "You merely heard the frost cracking on the window pane. Go to sleep, love."

Reassured, she did as bidden, but, on being aroused early by the servant's cry of dismay, she hastened down to find the lower rooms in a state of extreme confusion. Drawers had been pulled out, the desk of the master forced open, and papers were scattered broadcast in an evident search for valuables. "My ruby ring!" cried Mrs. Groves. "I left it on the mantel last night. And my watch was in the Chinese cabinet —where I put my poclcetbook. Send for the police, Harold! They have all been stolen!" "1 shall go," cried Groves.

And he started off on a run. For several minutes Norine stood staring around in bewilderment. Then, mechanically, she began to arrange the disordered apartment She picked up the pieces of a shattered vase, threw them In the grate, straightened a twisted drapery, lifted some scattered sheets of paper, laid them on the leaf of her husband's forced desk, and suddenly retreated a step, turning very white. Open before her, having evidently been wrenched wide, in the hope of finding money, was a square morocco box. In the box was a bundle of letters, and a photograph. The letters were in a woman's hand, and the smiling, pictured face, was that of Norine's dearest friend.

She held tight to a chair-back, to keep from falling. Her temples throbbed. A hot flush drove the pallor from her cheeks. The buzz in her ears was deafening. She put out her hand, took up one of the letters, read it through. It was just such a loveletter as any refined, affectionate girl might have written. It began "My Dearest," and ended "Your loving innle." It bore the date of the year previous to Norine's marriage. She took up another folded sheet, opened, glanced through it. A brief, sad little note it was. "My deur.' il ran, "fate has been hard to us. It is good-by we must say—wo who love each other so: Hut not good-hy forever. We must keep on believing In each other, and hoping for ultimate happiness together. It shall surely come. Your desolate ANKIJT."

Hark! Then, were footsteps—voices! The young wife hastily replaced the letters, drew back from the desk. The next instant Harold, accompanied by policemen and detectives, was in the room. He went directly to Norine. "My love." he said, "what a shock this has given you! You are white as a^fhost."

She thrust his gentle hand away "I am Tory well," she said. And all the time she was going over and over In her mind the details of her husband's acquaintance with Annie Hubbard. He had known her from childhood—long before ho met Norine. She reoollected his telling her they had gone to danolng school together but she had never dreamed that he was In love with Annie, or she with him. Now she knew that It was no, since he treasured her letters, her picture. She understood why he had locked his desk. He had married her •iyl 1

for her money -loving Annie llubbard all the time. That fact was patent and plain.

Ah day long she went around like a woman in a dream. She was very pale, and her lips were rigidly set. Her changed appearance and demeanor her husband attributed to the fright she had had. And the whole time one terrible thought was beating itself In upon her brain. "You love them both. You stand in their sunshine. Move out of it!"

Toward evening she left the house, wnlked to a drug store, entered, asked for a certain powder, at once caressing and deadly.

The clerk looked at her curiously, she fancied, as he gave her the package and her change.

She went home. llarold was out. She sat down and wrote him a few lines. "You accused me of being jealous," she wrote. "I don't think I was—I know I am. I have read Annie's letters to you. If I had dreamed beforo I married you that you cared for each other, I would have done then what I am about to do now."

It seemed a long time before the drug took effect, but at last she felt the desired sense of unconsciousness creeping upon her.

It was almost eleven o'clock when Harold, who had been on a wild goose, chase after the burglars, reached his own door. A voice out of the shadows spoke to him. "Mr. Groves, I've been waiting for you. I'm Jim Dinand." "Oh, yes—of course. Walt, and I'll get this door open." "No—I only wish to speak to you a moment. You did 1110 a good turn last year, when I was miles deep in that lawsuit, and couldn't pay you. I tliink I've done you one now. Your wife came into my drug store to-night. She didn't know me. but I knew her. She asked for morphine—an amount that would bo a fatal dose. She looked wild and strange. I gave her a harmless sedative powder. 1 may have been mistaken in regard to her evident intention, but I don't think so." "My God I" murmured Groves. "Thank you, Jim," he said then.

He let himself in. went quietly upstairs, noiselessly entered the room. Norine lay asleep the note she had written was on a small table beside the bed. He took up the sheet—read the few calm, desperate words. Then he dropped the note on the floor between the table and the bed. It was late next morning when Norine lifted her heavy eyelids. "Well, you lazy girl!" cried a dear, familiar voloe, "I'm tired waiting breakfast for you. I never knew you to sleep so late. I hoar they've caught our intruders. I hope so—although they didn't get very much. I suppose they tliwight they had a great find when they broko open the locked box which Dave Harding gave me to keep for him, when his folks broke up the engagement between him and Annie Hubbard, aud sent him out west. However, in a letter I got from him only this morning, ho writes me that the course of true love is running smoothly again, and that he is coming back to marry Annie next month. Make haste, dear. The chops will be like leather."

Ho left the room. She looked wildly around for her note, picked it up. "The draught from the window must have blown it off the table. Was ever anything so fortunate? But how did that young druggist happen to make such a mistake? Ohl I have been wicked—wicked! Forgive me, dear God, my jealousy, my rash attempt, both dark sins! I will never again doubt your love, nor Ills!"

And, in the sweet humility of her happiness, she never did.—Kate Cleary, in N. Y. \Veekl3'.

He Didn't Get It.

When the tramp banged away at the kitchen door he thought of course a woman would open it, and he was ready for her. His spirit underwent a ohange, however, when the door opened and a strapping big man appeared "What are vou doing here?" asked the man, without any preliminary politeness.
