SAD SUIcIDE.-About IOclock this
morning Charles W. Miller, night
Waterman at the Yellow Jacket south
works, Gold Hill, was discovered dead
near the northeast corner Of the car
penter shop of the works. lie was
sitting upon the ground, leaning back
against 4 pile OF timbcrs, with Il bullet
hole through his head and n pistol by
his side, indicating but too plainly the
sorrowful fact that he had committed
suicide. The fatal weapon was the
six-barreled Colts revolver he usually
carried, and the bullet had passed ell
tirely through his head, near the tenn
pies, from right to left, leaving a small
portion Of the brain upon his left
shoulder. Mr.. Miller was thirty-four
years Of age, single, and a native OF
Rockingham county, State of Virginia.
lie was n young ma Of fine talents,
we'll educated. respectfully connected,
and of a genial, amiable disposition,
which secured him many friends. He
was formerly in very good circum-
stances, hut misfortune and ad-
ycrsity overlook him, and has
evidently preyed upon his feelings
ut times. Especially of late he has
been subject to occasional moods Of
melancholy, and last evening he was
unusually low spirited, yet no II
dreamed that he intended self-dcstruc-
ton. He was not an incorporate man,
| therefore this sad decd was not the re-
suit Of drinking, but purely incited by
deep mental depression. He leaves n
mother in Gold Hill, and has also n
sister-in-law ut Virginia and n brother
in Montana. The funeral notice OF tie
ceased may be found in another col
umll.

dreams which Is strange to the human
mind, wien awake. The mother OF
Charley Miller, who commmitted sui
| cide early this morning. had n dream
| night before last that her sol had been
killed, and0 last night the same
phantom again visited her. Alas! and
doubly sad for the poor mothers heart,
tho news Of her sons unfortunate
death was revealed to her about srln-
rise this morning! No but the
heart of n MornER can realize the
anguish and deep feeling of sorrow at
such sad news. May our Heavenly
Father indeed be the father of the poor
widow in this her hour Of dreadful
sorrow anu aiiiictlon.
