Attempted Suicide.
[Special dispatch to the Tribune.]

Kenyon, March 5. Last night a party named Howard, from Bozeman, Mont. at the railroad
eating house at Lyle, Minn., attempted suicide by cutting this throat with a penknife,
while laboring under the delusion that he was to be arrested for counterfeiting.

After doing the deed he walked to the office and asked the clerk for a drink. He had about $500 on his person. At last accounts this morning he was still alive.
