Despondency over the death of his wife, and mental worry, prompted George Edward Cash, living in the rear of 310 Rondo street, to attempt suicide shortly after o'clock .Wednesday night, by taking two teaspoorifuls of insect powder mixed with water. He did not succeed in his puiposei how ever, and after two hours of hard work he was brought hack to consciousness. Cash's wife died about nine months ago, and since that time he has been living with R. G. Gould. Actded to his mental worry over the death of his wife, is the fact that he is blind. Gould Ijeft tie house at 6 o'clock to go to church, and at that time Cash appeared to foe all right. When Gould returned shortly after 8 o'clock he found that Cash had retired, and called him. He repeated the call, and on getting no answer went over to the bed. -He was horrified to find Cash unconscious and immediately summoned Dr. T. S. Cook. When Dr. Cook arrived on the scene he found Cash unconscious and almost dead. He quickly set to work, and with restoratives finally succeeded in restoring his patient,to consciousness. During the excitement some one tele phoned for Coroner A. W. Miller, that the man was dead, but when the latter appeared on the scene Cash was con scious. In reply to a query as to why he took poison, Cash said, "Because I wanted to, and am tired of living." He also threatened to repeat the attempt, but said he would not make a failure of it next time. He is sixty years old, and is a well-known character about town. A "KIIXING AT POLICY. Allen A. Hodge, a porter living at 874 Summit place, won $520 Tuesday on a $2 bet.

"Sis Hopkins," that pretty pastoral comedy drama which is now in its third season, with Miss Rose Melville in the title role, comes to the Grand next week. So great was the success of this really remarkable play that Mr. J. R. Stirling, under whose direction the piece has become one of the most popular and best-known comedy dramas now before the public, had it entirely recast by Mr. F. E. Rose, the author of the stage version of "David Harum." It was then sent out for last season and -brilliantly successful be yond all anticipation. This season Mr. Stirling presents it again in response to requests for time from many man agers in different parts of the country who wanted to give "Sis" to their pa trons once more before Miss Meville takes up the new play which has been written for her "Hoosier Cinderella." In preparing an entirely new produc tion scenically and in support .of Miss Melville, there is an entirely new com pany made up of some of the best known character actors on the stage today. Many of the members are well known and popular with theatre goers. The story of "Sis Hopkins" is a sim ple one, natural and free from the lib erties of modern society plays because it deals chiefly with the homely coun try people of Posey county, Indiana. "Sis Hopkins" is an awkward country girl, the daughter of Pa Hopkins, and, she dresses in that queer, old-fashion ed style of gingham pinafore, striped stockings and pig tail hair put up with funny little red side combs.

There's nothin* mean about B^Stof^S-k1^. the farm, and an agent comes along to secure the'- necessary papers. His ef forts to this end give Sis her first in sight into the duplicity of the World. It is a revelation to her and in a most pathetic scene she announces her de termination to go away and learn to dress "an' lie an' be like other people." When she returns it is as a young woman of fashion, only to find that her father has lost his mind and does not recognize her. She slips away and re turns clad in her old clothing as "Sis" and singing her old father's favorite ballad ibrings him back to reason and recognition. The character of "Sis" is distinctive and quaint and original with Miss Melville. Her mannerisms, her odd halting speech, the humorous sayings and her teering walk make the character one of the most interesting on the stage. When she is asked to sign away her portion of the farm for the railroad she speaks those lines which* have become famous from one end of the country to the other: "Ye can't never make nothin' doin' nothin' for nobody for nothin'." WILL BE IN NO DANGER. Intends Taking Precautions to Prevent Post-Mortem Robbery. The uniformed functionary who is in command of a regiment of bell boys at a local hotel takes pride in the mouthful of jewelry he displays every time he grins. He had bad luck with his teeth in earlier life, and several ivories have been replaced v,-ith gold fillings. An acquaintance, one of the prominent regular board ers at the hotel, noticing the anima ted show case the otaer day, observed: "I am afraid, captain, that after you are dead and buriad you won't re main long in your grave. Some one will dig you up for that gold in your mouth. You'il be worth more dead than you are alive." Rastus laughed so heartily at this that the jewelry display dazzled the eyes of the guest. "Oh, no, sah," he said, "dey won't dig me up sahno, sah, cawse I'se gwine teh be incriminated, I am. Ah'll jes fool all dose gold huntahs. Dey's dun got man ahdah down at de creamery long time ago."

Here is a little 1 story of the thrift of one of those stern dispenser's of "Jersey justice" that adorn the bench of that state, says an exchange. A couple of months ago a gentleman liv ing near "Paterson was sued by a butcher in the sum of $350, though he held receipts of the butcher for the full amount of his alleged indebted ness. The resident of suburban Pat erson was waited upon by the sheriff and haled before a justice. Before the case was to-be called the victim of New Jersey legal methods went to the judge, who was a. personal friend and showed him his receipts. The judge looked the documents over and real ized that the case must be thrown out of court. "I'll, look after the matter," said the judge. Some days later the gentleman who had been lued asked the judge about the case. "Oh," said the judge, "I threw the case put of court and made the butcher pay the costsand, by the way," pulling th bill bearing the butcher's signaure for its payment from his pocket, "I sae you are paying two cents less for loia ehops than I doand that ham is but 22 cents a poundr while we pay 23 for it down there.
