Lillibelle Bays Takes Car bolic Acid and Dies This Morning. A distressing case of suicide look place last night about ten o'clock, in winch a young girl ftsdishly took her own life without apparently much cause. Lilli, lielie Bays, daughter of W. N, Bays, is the young noman, and she is about 18 yevrs of age. She resided with her parents at Blaine, in this county, and had attended school in District No. 83, where she had just passed successfully the eighth grade examination. She had previous to that clerked in Haltom's department store in this city. Wednesday evening she attended the prayer meeting at the Rev. R. Y. Blalock's residence, and left for home in company with her sister, Miss Bessie Bays, Manual Borba and Oscar Johnson She was most cheerful all the evening and there were no indication that anything was troubling her. When about half a mile from home she left her sister nnd the two young men and went home. This was about ten o'clock. When she arrived home her parents had retired for the night and the house was ¡n darkness. She went to a locker and took a bottle of carbolic acid and drank a part of it, and replacing the cork, placed the bottle on the stove. She then sat down in a chair, and her parents hearings peculiar gurgling noise arose to see what was the cause, when to theil horror and surprise they found that their daughter had taken poison, for ths bottle on the stove told what had hap pened, When found the young woman was in a semi unconscious condition and grew worse. Dr. Boats was sent for, but she died at two o'clock thia morning, a few minutes before the doctor arrived. At first it was thought that the young woman bad taken the poison acci dentally, but there appears to be a general opinion in the neighborhood that she did so with suicidal intent. She appeared to be in the best of spirit when she left her sister and the two young men, and they could not account f5r her rash act when apprised of what had hnppened.
