SgiCIDE OF WIMItM MATHENA,
He Takes Two Doses of Morphine.

Last night Mr. William Mathena
committed suicide about 10 o'clock
by taking morphine. The particulars,
"a far as we we're able to learn, we're
II &c.: Some time between and z
O'Clock i1 the evening, he entered
!, Dicks saloon. at the corneg of
First and Locust Streets, and asked
for a glass Of water He then took
from his pockets paper that contained
three other papers, and emptied the
contents Of the two papers in a glass
of water, which he drank,
saying at the time, Il guess
that is enough to send me home" He
then threw the third paper on the
counter, and the bar keeper, on pick
ing it up found that It was labeled,
Morphine, 81 grains" From thence
it appears that he went to the store
of IL S. Gamble, on First Street. The
young man in attendance there, states
that he entered the store about z PM,
and that after some conversation with
him. it was discovered that he was in
a sinking condition, but it was sup
posed that he was intoxicated. Short
ly after, he sank to the floor,
and after some time, it was
discovered that he was dying. A
physician was sent for, but it was too
late; he died about 10 o'clock. A
Coronor's inquest was held on the
body at 12 o. clock. Mr. Mathena was
a steamboat pilot, and was well known
in this city. For several days past he
has been drinking a great deal. 1t
was a sad thing, indeed.

THE OPERA.-Another large and
fashionable audience attended the
Opera, given by the Leiderkranz
Society and the Evansville Orchestra,
last night. The presentation of this
gtand opera has been attended with
great success. 1t was received each
night with enthusiastic applause, and
is pronounced by the best musical
critics in the city to be decidedly the
finest thing ever produced in Evans
Vile, When the fact is taken into
consideration, that the two Soc tiles
have been practieing for a year on
this opera, it will be the better
understood how difficult it is.
We cannot undertake to speak
Of individuals for, as before stated,
that would involve the mention Of
each members name in both Societies,
and bring out an array of over fifty
names. If there was a member In
either Society, who failed in the per
foTmance Of his or her part we'll we
were not able to discover it. Any
thing like a review of the Opera,
would take more space than we have,
to devote at present. We hope that the
opera will be repeated at some time
not distant We feel that we express
a general desire when. we say this.
There are few cities that can boast of
the musical talent Evansville can,
and lit is matter OF satisfaction to
mention the names of the Evansville
Iiederkranz Society and the Evans
| Vile Orchestra IN this correction,
