WILL PROBABLY RECOVER. George Holden, a young man of twenty-three years, attempted to shuffle off this mortal coil by cutting his throat with a razor at his board ing house at Hazzard just above Black Diamond.

He has been employed by the Monongahela Casting company and is well-spoken of by the people of that neighborhood.

He has been in ill health recently aid the only cause for the attempted suicide is that he became despondent. Sunday evening about six o'clock he went to his room and with his razor cut a long deep gash in his throat. Then he ran out and was seen by Mrs. Gilpin. He became very weak and was propped up in a chair.

Dr. Francis Linn was summoned and did all he could for the man. Then the ambulance came and he was taken to the Memorial hospital where he is resting fairly well. I PROGRAM FOR TUESDAY NIGHT. Charleroi Concert Band Will Play Sweet Music in Monongahela Tuesday Evening.
