Arch Kay Trio t<? Take Life by !
Making: Noose From Kxtra
Hammock.
Anderson, Feb. 1">.?.Arc-h Kay, a
white man -7 years of age, tried ;.o
commit suicide in his c 11 at 'lie
county jail, where he is beitm held
pending trial for breaking into a
pressing club in the Brogan mill village.
Some time during last night
Kay tore up one of the extra hammocks
in his cell and mat.o a rope
out of it. He put a noose around his
nt'ck, tied the end of the rope to the
cell ceiling and jumped into another
x hammock stretched across the cell
room. The other prisoners in thej
jail tried to attract Sheriff Asniey s attention,
but the sheriff was not disturbed
until a crazy person in one of
the cells near the jailer's house began
yelling. Sheriff Ashley arrived
just in time to save Kay's life. With
a sharp knife he cut the noose and
a doctor was summoned. It took
several minutes hard work to revive
Kay. Kay, it is said, wrote a letter
to his mother yesterday, telling her
he intended to take his life. He said j
today that ne nung nimsm uaauat;
he was suffering from a dose of I
ground glass he had eaten. This state-!
ment is not believed by the officers.
Kay was a former resident of the Orr
mill village..

Madero Enters Protest.
Washington, Feb. 17.?President
Madero's message to President Taft
Saturday asking the American government
not to intervene was a3 follows:
"I have been informed that tli-e government
over which your excellency
presides has ordered to set out, for the
ports of Mexico, war vessels witli
trops to disembark and come to this
capital to give guarantee of safety to
Americans.
"Undoubtedly the information which
you have had and which led you to
take this action is inexact and exaggerated,
for the lives of Americans in
this capital are at present in no dan
ger, if they will abandon the zone of
fire and concentrate in certain points
of the city or its suburbs where tranquility
is absolute, and where the government
can give all classes guarantees.
"If you order Americans resident
here to do that following the precedent
established by your own orders,
1 3 f rv 111 a 1 1 TOO
previously issueu, uctugci tu mc u>va
of Americans and other foreigners
will be obviated. Regarding what
material damages may be suffered by
foreigners, this government is ready
to accept all responsibility according
to the obligations of international
law.
"Consequently I ask your excellency
to order your men-of-war not to disembark
troops in Mexico, as this act
will cause a conflagration and terrible
consequences of more extent than
the ones we have to contend with at
present.
"I assure your excellency that this
government is taking all measures
necessary in order that the rebels in
the arsenal will do the least narxu
possible to lives and property in the
capital,, and I have hopes that everything
will be peacefully arranged ia
a very short time.
"It is true that'my country at this
I moment is passing through a terrible
crisis. The disembarkation of American
troops would only increase the
dangers of the situation and be a very
lamentable error. It would do great
harm to a nation which always has
been a loyal friend to the United
States as well as contribute > the
dangers surrounding the establishing
? ? ?? ? ^ ^ V* r\
of true democratic government
similar to that of the gr^at American
| nation.
"I app?al to the equitable, just s^n
timents uiui nave uccu iuv ?
of your government, and that undoubtj
edly represent the sentiments of the
great American people, whos? destinies
you have guided with so*i:u:-h
skill and patriotism."

impassible to give close scrutiny and

I this bill has been so scientifically proI
pared that it can not be defeated."

"I believe," he declared, ''honestly
