Ho unbolted tho door und swingiug it open found Mr. Fry drugging after, more dead than alive. Ho had hangod himself to tho burs of tho door by his suspenders and a few minutes more would have set tled his case beyond appeal. He was already insensible but soon re covered consciousness after being cut down. Ho is despondent and sulky and declares that ho will never be tried for his crime. On Saturday evening young Fry made another attempt at suicide by hanging himself to tho burs of his window by means of a towl. His cell-door had been locked und David Stahlnecker who had the kys had walked out. In order to savo tho Bouug man tho lock to tho door hi !fy-okoii by the Sheriff who c iiii'Vlown."

Don't think everybody be sides yourself wicked and foolish. If you find yourself suspecting oth ers and tattling about, what they do or don't do, suppose you establish a missionary station in your own homo. If some ono w ho wishes you no harm whatever, finds it impos sible to pleaso you always, don't pounco upon his reputation as if you were hungry for a morsel of gossip. Rocuuso you aro out of tho reach of tho back biting of others is ro reas on why you should bo digging claws and teeth into whatever capital of haracter they may havo. Remem ber that consideration for tho inten tions and reputations of other peo ple is far moro pleasant than think ing and saying ill of them. 1892. Written for Tn: Piivt. Marching Through Georgia.
