PROMISES TO TRY AND LIVE Commissioners of Insanity Decide that Woman is Not Insane, MAKES THREE ATTEMPTS TO KILL HERSELF Despondent Over Beings Held oa Chicken Stealing Charge and Ina bility to Secure Amount of Ball Asked. Following the third unsuccessful attempt of Mrs. Llzsle Thordsen, an Inmate of the county jail, to end her life, Jailer Martin decided yesterday that the woman waa a fit subject for examination by the commis sioners on Insanity and accordingly filed an information against her. At the hear ing the board decided that the woman was not a fit subject to be committed to the insane asylum and ordered her discharged on her promising to refrain from attempt ing to take her life. She was accordingly taken back to her cell In the county Jail. Mrs. Thordsen Is awaiting trial on a charge of being implicated In a number of chicken thefts for which her husband, John Thordsen, Is now serving a two years' sentence in the penitentiary at Fort Madison. Thordsen attributed his career of thievery to the bad influence of his wife. Mrs. Thordsen was tried on one charge after being brought back from Cherokee, Ia., but the jury acquitted her. Assistant Attorney Hess, however, decided to try her on another charge In connection with the same alleged , robbery and she was recommitted to the county jail. On her acquittal Mrs. Thordsen expected she would be allowed to go to the home of her father, where her young son Is, and became very despondent when informed the county authorities Intended to place her on trial again. Her ball had been placed at $500 and her father was able to furnish a bond for $300, but the authorities declined to reduce the amount. The failure to secure ball added to her despondency. Some weeks ago while in a fit of de spondency she attempted to end her life by turning on the gas in her cell, but she failed, although as a result she became seriously sick and was unable to leave her bed for over a week. A week or so after she waa able tc leave her bed she at tempted to hang herself by tying a pair of shoe laces around her neck and attach ing the ends to one of the bars of her cell. A female prisoner occupying the same ward notified Jailer Martin and Mrs. Thordsen was cut down. Testerday morning she made another at tempt to hang herself with a piece of rib bon, but the ribbon was not sufficiently strong to support her weight. This third attempt to take her life decided Jailer Martin that the woman waa evidently mentally deranged and he had her taken before the commissioners. Mrs. Thordsen ever since her arrest has been seriously ill, suffering from a disease needing careful treatment, and Jailer Mar tin stated yesterday that the proper place for the unfortunate woman was In the hospital and not in Jail, where she cannot receive the treatment she should..,,,-. It was said yesterday that a number of charitable women who have Interested themselves in Mrs. Thordsen's case will use their efforts to either secure her dis charge or release on decreased ball. butcher knife started for Mm.

FRANCIS Exercises of Vnusnal Interest At tract Large Knmber of People. The thirty-second annual commencement exercises of St. Francis scademy last night were witnessed by a gathering of the friends of the Institution and graduates which packed the handsome new audi torium to the doors. The commencement exercises at St. Francis academy have al ways been noted fqr the excellence and many pretty features of the program and those last night were no exception to the rule. The theme of the program was "The Holy Grail," the legend of which was effectively told by Miss Elisabeth Shea, while Miss Anna Stapleton told of the spiritual significance of the legend. Miss Mary Duff had "The Individual Quest" as her part and Miss Phoebe Zessln that of "No Man's Quest Is Unto Himself Alone;" "Loyalty to the Quest" was the theme as signed to Miss Elizabeth Morris, while "Wandering Fires" was the subject of Miss Nnsn'a recitation. N Pretty features of the exercises were the drill entitled "The Revel of the Nymphs" and the "Poses Plastlque." In the drill the young women, daintily gowned In white and carrying garlands of leaves and flowers, were led by Miss Frances Mc Millan with a grace and effectiveness rarely seen. The "Poses Plastlque" were prettily carried out by the Misses Gertrude Mar tin, Anna Stapleton and Phoebe Zessln. The musical numbers were no leas pleas ing than the other features of the exer cises. Miss Eleanor Rtggs demonstrated she was a singer with a sweet soprano voice. Her solo, "I Do Not Ask, Oh Lord," was very prettily rendered and at the close the singer was loudly applauded in vain efforts to Induce her to respond to an en core, but the length of the program pro hibited her complying. The effect of Miss Rlggs' solo was greatly enhanced by the BETTER WORK AT HOSPITALS Otsferono Lays Plans for Eolentifio and Or'ginal Ee:carch. ALL TO BE ALLIED WITH STATE UNIVERSITY Auctioneers Want a State Board te Pass an Qualifications of Those Who Are to Cry Bales. (From a Staff Correspondent.)

The committee report was signed by Messrs. Wltte, Applegate and Cr urn packer, Dr. Vo'deng, who originally brought up the subject, not being present. The report rec ommends, In brief, that the scientific work, particularly as It relates to original re search in the four state hospitals for the Insane and the Institution for the feeble minded, be consolidated under the guidance of a general director who shall preferably be associated with the State university, and who shall be competent to engage in this special work. The association with the State university Is suggested because of the advantages he will there have of well equipped laboratories ss well as the co operation of men of advanced and special knowledge in other and contributory sciences. There shall then be a medical as sistant who shall have psychological and pathological training and be able to do ad vanced work under the guidance of the general director at each hospital. The committee would then require at the several Institutions that the personal and clinical history of, all cases be obtained and kept with the greatest accuracy; that the super intendents be legally empowered to order post-mortem examinations, etc. This mat- DOCTORS OF COUNTY ORGANIZE Foar Meetings to Be Held Each .Year, Two la Each End of the County.

I heartily endorse Wine of Cardui because I have found it the only medicine which ever helped me. I suffered for years with headaches and pains in the lower regions. At times 1 was so dizzy that I had to go to bed and existence was simply misery. The doctor told me that I' had ulceration of the womb of long standing and this disease simply drained my life forces. After I began using Wine of Cardui 1 grew stronger gradually, ily general health began to improve before the first bottle was used and within a month the dizzy spells were gone. I used the treatment for fully three months, each day feeling better until gradually new health and strength came to me. j I cannot speak too highly st- X A of your wonderful remedy. &C. CLC-a&atVC. Bwrae Of . Hardin Wine of Cardui strikes at the very seat of female weaknesi by regulating the menstrual flow. The Wine is a aful Brescription that has stood the test for three-quarters of a century during which period 1,500,000 suffering women have secured health by its use. Wine of Cardui is offered to the millions of women who, like Mrs. Van Anken are having their life forces drained away by the scourge of female sickness. But it is your duty to stop this drain.to eradicate this, scourge, which is rendering your life unequal to the demands of your family and loved ones. Nine teen out of every twenty women whj hare used Wine of Cardui endorse it in the highest terms. Mrs. Van Anken 's letter nd the thousands of other letters which come to us unsolicited are the strongest inducements to attract you to this great health-giving remedy. Mrs. Van Anken heartily endorsee Wine of Cardui because it is the only medicine which helped her. jBecauae itcured her headaches and pains. Because it stopped the terrible drains which were wasting her life away, and because it made her a strong and healthy woman. What better reason could be offered for you to give Wine of Cardui a sample trial. All druggists sell 11.00 bottles. '&M)QD W elL Ja ' vt ' y t. a m sa f --m lew a y -a5 ' k f A
