Miss Mary Critz, seventeen years OF
age, residing in the family of Stephen
Moore, at Rochelle, in this State, and
the daughter of respectable farmer
living six miles from the same place,
deliberately committed suicide, Friday
night last, by taking strychnine. About
10 O'Clock she left the family circle and
retired to her room, seemingly happy
and cheerful. Shortly after a noise was
heard in her room, and on going there,
she was found in the agonies of death
and confessed to taxing poison. She
had previously taught school, but at the
time of her death was employed as a
seamstress. She was young lady
highly respected, and no reason is
known for the commission of the deed. i.
Previous TO taking the poison, she
wrote1he following note to Miss Ger
trude Moore:

ing something wrong with the gas de-
scended into the cellar with lighted

which shattered the house terribly, and
what was not destroyed by the explo-
sion was consumed by fire in very
few minutes. The inmates were MIR. l..
