HAS TROUBLE WITH HIS STEPFATHER
Itefuwen Imitation to Dinner nnd
SunlloMN nn (Inner of l.nudnntiui
I in tend Heroic .Mraeure
Mnr Snip Illin.
Despondent over his crippled condition
and Ittianclal troubles, Joo Shaddon. a
farmer whoso homo Is near Keels In this
county, swallowed an ounce of laudanum
shortly after noon yesterday at the Ncu
mayor hotel with the Intention of ending
his life. That ho had taken the drug was
not discovered for fully an hour after and
It was only by heroic measures that ho was
saved from crossing tho divide. His con
dition last night was stilt precarious, al
though the attending physician had hopes of
pulling him through.
Shaddon Is crippled from the effects of a
whlto swelling in tho hip Joint which at
times ylves him severe pain. Since his
recent .return from Nebraska, where ho has
been proving upon a claim about eighty
nillos from Ilrokcn How, ho has been work
ing on the farm of his stepfather, Peter
Peterson, at Heels. Ho has been In the city
for a few days past and It Is said has been
drinking heavily. From what Shaddon had
told some of his friends It appears he and
his stepfather did not get nlong well to
gether and that caused him to leavo tho
latlcr's farm and come to the city. His Im
poverished financial condition also made
him despondent and It is said that during
the last three days he had repeatedly
threatened to kill himself.
About noon yesterday he was In tho bar
at tho Ncumayer hotel with John Page, a
farmer living nenr PJgeon. Pago asked him
to go to dinner with him, but Shaddon de
clined the Invitation, saying he did not
want any dinner Pago then asked him to
take a glass of beer.
Poison Instrnd of llrrr.
"I havo drank all the beer I will ever
drink," Shaddon replied and pulling a bot
tle from his coat pocket said: "This will
end nil my trouble." Ho then told Page
ho Intended to take his life, ns he was tired
of living and offered Page some papers In
which he said ho had written everything
down. Page refused to take the papers and
told Shaddon not to dare to think of taking
his life. Pago, who Is an elderly man, says
he had no Idea that Shaddon really In
tended to do as he said.
Shaddon on leaving Pago went Into the
yard back of the saloon where ho swallowed
tho laudanum. An hour later he was found
In the year of the hotel across the alley by
ono of the employes, F. Scott. It was at
first thought that Shaddon was simply In
toxlcatod nnd he was placed In the barn.
When Page heard of Shaddon's condition he
at onco realized that ,the man had taken
the drug as ho had threatened and Dr.
Colo, whose office Is nearby, was sent for.
The stomach pump was brought Into action,
but as tho drug had by that time perme
ated the system It was only by tho most
heroic treatment that Shaddon was brought
back to consciousness.
Hnnl Work to Nnre lllni.
It was with great difficulty that the man
was kept from going to sleep again nnd for
several hours it took tho united efforts of
the doctor and a number of men to keep
him awako by slapping his faco and walk
ing or rather dragging him up- nnd down
the barn.
Shaddon was removed to St. Bernard's
hospital last evening and It was said there
were chances for his recovery.

SEEKS POETRY TO RECALL WIFE
Irn. Ailnms llrltf-vrrt Vrrnrn on Chris
tian I.lnrs Would Urine
Her Ilncli.
Ira Adores, a brlckmnker employed In the
Heasley yards and living at 1518 Sixth
avenue, made a round of the newspaper
offices yesterday In search of someone to
wrlto him "a row lines of poetry." The
poetry ho wanted ground out had to bo on
"Christian Hues." ns by It he hoped to
Invoke tho return of his wife, who had left
his bed and board. Ho was much disap
pointed when he found none of the local
newspaper offices denlt In poetry made to
order at such a short notice. One editor
volunteered to loan hlra a "Lay Sormon,"
but nothing but poetry would suit Mr.
Adams,
According to Adams' story he had been
married four times nnd twlco divorced and
he still believed marriage was n good
thing, despite tho fact that his present nnd
rourth wife h?d seemingly deserted him.
"I lovo her still," he said, "and If she
will come back I will readily forgive her. I
would like to convey ray sentiments for
her In a poem on Christian lines, as this
would do more to bring her back, I believe,
than all I could say otherwise."
Shortly nfter Adams married his present
wife a man whom she called "Uncle
Charley" camo nnd made his homo with
them. Mrs. Adams' nfrectlon for her undo
aroused the suspicions of Adams, but his
wife told him when ho remonstrated with
her for her display of affection that sho
acted so only because sho expected to gel
her uncle's money when ho died. The pros
pect of Inheriting a legacy from the uncle
did much to nllay Adams' simpletons and
matters moed henceforth more smoothly
In the Adams household.
Last Saturday morning when leaving for
his work Adams' wife kissed him goodbye
and told him she hoped If they were ever
separated she would meet him In heaven.
When he returned at noon for dinner his
wife had apparently left for tho celestial
home as all the furniture was gone, as In
fact woro all his belongings, oven his
clothes. There were no slgnt jt Mrs
Adams or "Uncle Chnrley." Adams hns not
set eyes on elthor of them since nnd Is of
the opinion that his hotter half has gone
on n trip to Missouri In company with her
"uncle."
Monday Adams discovered where his wife
had stored their furniture, but he has not
yet located his wearing apparel and thla he
Is anxious to do, as ho was left with only
tho working clothes he had on when Mrs.
Adams left homo. Adams' fourth venture
In matrimony occurred last December. Ho
lays nil the blame for his wife's disappear
ance nt the door of "Uncle Charley" and If
he found the latter he would greet him with
something more aggressive than a poem
written on "Christian lines."
I "or lluniilnw KlnntlnK Saloon,
Carl, William and Emanuel Neglthnrn,
three brothers who have been running a
floating saloon on a steamer on the Iowa
Ide of Cut-Off lake, were arrested last
evening in a warraut Issued from the court
of Justice llryant. The complaint was Hied
by Mrs. Sarah A. Plummer, who lives on
the Nebraska side of the lake and Is said
to conduct a pleasure resort where temper
ance drinks alone arc sold. The arrest was
made by Constables Albcrtl and Ualrd The
three brothers, although much surprise!,
Sffercd no resistance and willingly accom
panied the officers to this city, where they
each gave bonds In tho sum of $200 for their
appearance Friday mornlug. Tho steamer
nnd Its contents were taken possession of
by the constables to secure tho costs In
the case and J. W. Scott of this city
was placed In possession.

James Jncobsen begun suit In tho dis
trict court yesterday against E. L. Shugart
for 110,632.75 damages for Injuries received
In an accident In an elevator In the Shugart
block.
Jacobscn was employed as Janitor of the
Shugart block ami on November IS last,
while climbing into the elevator In tho
basement, was caught between the floor
of the cage and the basement celling. He
was crushed and severely bruised and sus
tained tho fracture of ono leg. Ho claims
that tho accident was duo to tho fact that
the only access he had to the basement
where his duties required him to go fre
quently was by the elevator. Tho elevator,
he asserts, when nt Its lowest point stood
about three feet from tho basement floor
and that to enter It he was obliged to
climb between the floor of the cago and the
basement celling. He also alleges that
tho elevator was In an unsafe condition;
that Its oables were slack and the control
ling lever Insecurely hold, milking the
elevator liable to stnrt from a sudden Jar
such ar would bo caused by a person climb
ing Into It. Ho declares ho wns unaware
at the time of the unsafe condition of the
elevator. Jacobscn Is 36 years of age nnd
alleges he Is permanently Injured as a re
sult of the accident. In nddltlon to $10,000
damages he asks $400 tor loss of eight
months' time and tho halancc to remunerate
him for medical attendance.

of 500 sand teamsters nnd nil tho tlrtmen
of the Pacific Const Steamship company's
vessels In port. By the strike of the sand
teamsters the hauling of building mntorl.it
Is brought to n standstill, savo In a tew
Instances where contractors have their own
teams.
The strike of tho Pacific Coast Steamship
company's firemen wns unexpected by tho
steamship people, who hud made no prep
nratlons to obtain nonunion men. When
tho strike of tho City Front federation
was ordered the firemen refused to go out.
Tho men had n contract with the em
ployee similar to that of the sailors and
they decided to fulfill tho terms of tho
ngreemcnt. The striking firemen say thnt
nfter mature deliberation they find It neces
sary to Join their fortunes with the other
fcdcratlonlsts, who nro striking for tho
principle of unionism.
In a shooting nffray near the mall dock
this morning Wilfred llnrtou, colored, n
nonunion stevedore, was shot In tho shoul
der nnd painfully Injured.
Filipino crows havo been secured for
the steamers Colon nnd City of Sidney
and these vessels will depart promptly.
Tho Sidney will go Friday.

union of clgnrmakcrs changed Its posi
tion with relation to tho strike several
times today. This morning the strikers

stances. This afternoon they Issued n statement
saying that It their leaders nro returned to
them they will then bo ready to settlo the
trouble. Thoy declare they will do nothing
until this Is done. Citizens say they will
have a long wait. It seems to be settled
tonight thnt tho deported strike leaden nre
beyond rench nnd this Is Impressing Itself
upon the strikers' minds. La Reslstcncln
hns been telegraphing to Key West nnd
New York all day trying to employ attor
neys to come hero nnd tnke tholr cases,
but with what success Is unknown. This
action was upon tho belief thnt the men
were In Jail. They are not confined In Jail.
From their vacillating moods It Is be
lieved that tho strikers nro wavering nnd
will soon be ready to resume work whero
they left off. Tnmpa served them with
notice today that If thoy deslro to leave In
a body they can do so without objection
being raised.
