The occurrence took place about ton o'clock in the morning , when , in the presence of his wife , ho took out the vial containing the paisou and , s ying that he was tired of life and was ready to die , poured the content * down his throat. Drs I'eabody and Dinsmore were summoned immediately , and , arriving wi bin twenty minutes' time , resorted to oxury method peculiar to medical skill to save the man's life. Emetics were administered so cuccesafully tht the nee of a stomach pump which was ready at hand was not deemed nect-B- The physicians stayed by the would- bo oiiicido from ten o'clock until five , and kept him in constant motion , to provtnt his falling into a sloop that would have been his last. They thenleft him in charge of a couple of stout friends who agreed to keep up the pe- dastrinn exercise , as the only mode of salvation. On going back to see the pitiout about ton o'clock last night , ho was found by Dr. Peabady widoawako and safe from the clutch of the grim monster whose presence ho nad invi ted , and begcing his rclantless conduc tors "for God'u sake to let htm cit down and rest.

I jin 27 THE TRAMP TEOUBLE , An Effort to Make the Old Timers Earn Their Board , I And Inocculete Them With Disease at the Same Time. A now deal hss been determined upon iu the vexed qnciilon of the dis position of tramps and dead boats who are continually turning up and are only too glad to be given a term in the city or county jail , where food , fire and shelter are assured them. As the matter stands they have ben- efitted the city none , they have taken up the time of the police judge with out paying a cent Into either the city treasury or the judge's priv-ito purse and iu short have been a thoru without the rose , in every respect. They could neither ba persuaded out , run cut or kicked out of town , and if they couldn't got into jail any other , way , would steal aouio small articles and go up lor petit larceny , pleading often with the judge for the longest possible term. Tuesday eleven of these out-cast were marchi d up to the court room , some of the . .H aa giacelesa scamps as over scuttled ship or cut a throat. As the result of a conference with the mayor they were given ton days in the city jail , at liarn labor. The rock pile will bo worked to its utmost capacity and if nocessa.y extra policemen will bo detailed to stand ov. r the men and see that they earn their board. A ) the average number run in of late has been ten to twulvo per day , wo might soon bo ena bled to hire a good gang out to the waterworks company or Bomo of the contractors. Our reporter this mornlnt ; found the ijang distributed about in various places and doing good service. Some were scrubbing out the disgraceful old jail , oihera breikiug rock , nnd the rest , with pickaxe and shovel digging a vault through frozen grn'ind , back ou the coruer of Farna-n and Six' ' t'ocnth stroats. Dropping in on the came crowd about the time of tboir dinner hour our reporter wondered that the whole outfit did not die off in twenty-four hours. The narrow , confined quarters of the jail was recking with a stench that was almost fatal to a white man. Fifteen men sat or reclined about in one small cell , smoking , swearing and playing c.uds , whilu they covered the floor with tobacco juice. In the ad joining cell the bed clothes were piled up and the spare corner taken up by au article Hint is unmentionable , but very powerful iu its effect upon the olfactory nerves. While the tramps are a pest and a nuiB.inco to the city , yet the authorities oaro them at least breathing room. The jailor docs his best to keep the calaboose clean , but it ia impregnated with the iiilh of many past genera tions and it is a hopeless task. In the mcr.ntimo apr'ujj approaches , and then the waudcrora will be turned jo lorso to prey unou the commuolty , which has no lit place for their safe keeping. FRESI1 EGGS.
