' WANTED TO DIE IVife Heater Oliver 4oes Crazy and Attempt Suicide in the County Jail. David Sherman Oliver, who was confined in the county jail, chary, ed with wife beating, attempted to commit suicide by butting his head against an iron pin attached to a cell door, last Thursday. Oliver was arrested last week and being unable to furnish bonds in the sum of $500, was placed in the couuty jail. At first he seem ed rational enough andwas very talkative to everyoneMhat came near, but after a few da3's' con finement commenced to get gloomy in brooding over his troubles. On Wednesday evening he was more cheerful and stated to Deputy Sheriff Hill that h in tended to plead guilty, having dp. cided that that was the easiest way out of the difficulty. The next morning he showed signs of insanity and was so violent that Sheriff Shutt became alarmed that the man might do himself violent injury, hia actions showing suici dal intent. He asked the Sheriff for a revolver and said that he wanted to shoot himself. He said hat he did not want to shoot any body else, but would .quitely-Ko back into the jail and kill himself. Drs. Higgs and Snider were sent for and the man was examined an tD his sanity. He etill kept ask ing for a gun and to see whether j he was playing the insanity dodge, an empty revolver was handed to him and he was cautioned to be careful with the weapon. He quickly grabbed the revolver and without looking to see whether it was loaded or not placed tie weapon to the side of his head and pulled the trigger. He seemed to be greatly disappointed that he hnd been fooled. On one of the cell doors about 18 inches from the floor there is a 6hort blunt rod that is used for a handholt to slide the door back and forth. Oliver's next move. while no one was looking, was to get back a few feet and take a S. E. CARR, Pres. B. F.

This he tried three times each time striking the bar with his head and making aaly wounds. After making the third jump he was found by Deputy Sheriff Hill, lying in a pool of blood and before the officer could get to him he was up and prepar ing to make another jump. Three long gashes were cut in his scalp and there was one deep indenta tion in his skull. The man was so badly injuied that he was taken to the Heppner Sanitarium. The asylum authorities weie notified and A. T. Eduuson and F. G. Peden, two attendants from the Hsvlum came up Friday evening. In charge of the attendants Oliver was taken to the As lum Saturday. The biggest nugget in the world, one which contains ninety per csnt silver and weighs 397 pounds, is the striking feature of Colorado's mineral display in the Mines and Metallurgy building at the Lewis and CI irk Fair. The sil ver contained in the nugget, if counted, would make 6 640 silver dollars. It was taken Irom the famous Mollie Gib ton mines at Aspen, Pitkin county. This iiiine has produced silver and gold worth $14,000,000, and has another 81, 000,000 worth iu eight. Th? free illustrated l-.ctures by Barry Bulkley, of Washington, D. C, which refrtTMi eyery'afteriroon at four o'clock in the Government building at the Lewis and C.ark Fir, are attracting large audiences. Mr. Bulkley Bpeaks eloquently on the wonders of the Yel lowstone National Park, and his lec ture is beautifully illnstrated by colored lantern slides. In the Foreign Exhibits building at the Lewis and Clark Exposition there is a reproduction of Raphael's "Sistine Madonna." done entirely in needle work. The reproduction was done bv a young Gerninn giil, Franlein Clara Ripberger, and is considered the mo-t wonderful example of art needlework ever created. Advertised Letter.
