Strange and Unaccountable Suicide.
IFsom the Cleveland Herald.1

A man named George Ogden, from Fall
River. Mass, arrived ut the Atlantic and
Great Western Depot in this city. on tue ten
O'Clock train on Friday, accompanied by his
son, bright, Intelligent lad Of ten years. He
was compelled to walt for the Western bound
train, he having through tickets for himself
and son from New York to Lacrosse, Wis.
The Station Agent noticed something wrong
in the actions and conversation Of Ogden, and
resolved to watch his movements.
About noon he gave his son some money,
papers, dagnerreotypes, the key to bis satchel,
railroad tickets, &C., and then prevailed upon
him to lay down upon q lounge In the waiting
room at the depot and 60 to sleep. As soon
as;the boT WAS asleep, the father rushed out
ofthe depot. down tile hill to the bank Of the
river, and deliberately threw himself into the
boiling river, which was high and the current
very swift. He Immediately sunk. and up to
this writing his body has not been recovered.
HI was closely followed by those connected
with the depot, but be was too quick for
them, and could not be oyertaken before the
fatal deed was accomplished. He Was about
forty years Of age, and had several letters OF
introduction to prominent men In Lacrosse.
It WAS thought best to send the boy back
/ to Fall River, where his mother still resides,
and he was consequently furnished with tick
cts by the railroad company, and returned.

Editors Chicago Tribune:
In the Milwaukee Ssntin<l Of the 9th inst,
there is an edstorial article with the heading,
above given, which, In view Of the prospective
vast emigration to Montana the coming sea-
son, deserves little attention, which, with
your consent, will give It.. should send
this to the Stntina. but your large circula~
ton, not only IN Illinois, Indiana, 1owa and
Miuncsots, but In Wirconsin also, makes the
TRIBUNE the proper medium Of communica-
ton with the people. + propose to reply to
this brief article in detail. The Gtn&tnd says:

as his distance IT, It ia much better for the emit

from tbe hoettle Indiana. Moreover, the whole
Of this distance being ttayetaed by eteam, can be
covered IN a much shorter time than the tlow and
teGions journey can be performed overland"
This shows most concln.irely that the editor
absolutely knows nothing concerning the
matter. So far from time being saved BY 60
