This afternoon Alice (Hover, a young while girl living in the west ern portion of this city, swallowed some morphine with intent to end her life in that way. When found she was lying on the ground near tlio old mineral springs and was unconscious of what was going on about her. She was taken to her home and medical aid furnished her. To-night she is reported to be in a fair way of recovering. In one of her stockings was found a pistol, with which, she said, she intended killing herself if tlio poi son did not do the work. Friends of tlio family say that the most probable causo of her wishing to die is that a young man who for some time has been paying her marked attention, a few days ago jilted her, and that Ids going back on her made her very unhappy.
