Buttzville—A man named Plum, living one and one-half miles west of here, attempted suicide by taking strychnine. He has a fine farm, good crop prospects, a wife and six children and is only 36 years old. He gave as his reason that he was tired of living, and refused to take antidotes from the doctor. He died the next day.
