SUPPOSED SUICIDE.
Un-equitsd Love Finds Peace Under the Dark
Rolling Waters.

| Weary of life, another man sooths his
acking heart, quiets his troubled breast, and
| finds peace for unrequited love beneath the
ever flowing waters of the Mississippi. Oh
woman, think of the tender heart, the
delicate tendrils of which you have Sc
lacersted that the delicate cord must bs
snapped, the golden bowl broken and thu
fond, cherishing affections forever Quoted BY
the dark, cold waters. 1t moves the tenderes
! feelings that man, sodelicate, so affection ate
40 tenderly constituted, SO generous and
true should be forced to so desperate deeds
The terrible realities of married life were
this morning consumated On the banks OF
the river Just below the Glass Works The
tender victim was one VIM. Harrison Tor
Warmer, who, carpenter by trade, has
been employed at the Glass Works for about
two month";. His was troubled heart
Family relations were not pleasant. He had
wife and one child who live on Washing
ton street. He wanted to be happy but as
we learn from his little girl, 3 precoucious
Miss of some ten summers, he
could not find happiness at the
family hearth. The wife and
mother was subjected to fits and
while unconcious did not relish the fond kis.
SEES and endearing pet names of the loving
husband This was his mighty grief. He
spoke dark threats, of poison and pistols
and clothes being found some bright NOR
ming upon the bank of the river. This
morning was bright and pleasant Last
evening he told the watch at the works to
wake him at the first break of day, that the
rising sun might smile upon his clothes laid
so carefully upon the bank of the river.
This was done. AS the sunlight crept down
the waters, he babe adue to the Waterman,
wended his way to raft just above the saw
mill, unseen and alone Invested himself of
all clothing, placed them nicely on the raft,
put on another suit, took last farewell of
ali bright and smiling nature, and-ran
drdy Nth another acomal,. So at least said q

little GIRL obedient to instruction. few DAYS
ago, crossed with reenbscks, for the pur
pose OF learning the reliability of the repeat
ed threats of clothes on the bank of the
river, and fishes for watches at the bier
WIiliam had, on several occasions, INQUIRED
of Mr. Carter how long it would take the
fish to consume his bodr and received sncb
information as Mr.. Carter was in possession
of upon the subject
We are not disposed to question the
colored Italian revealer of the mysteries of
the future now that the clothes have been
found as indicated before the performance
Of the act, and it is further believed by Mr..
Carter that such is the case, but it is posi-
BILE that he has fulfilled his dark threat.
Some days ago he painted his tool-chest
black and sent it to bis mother at LaSslle in
this state with instructions to sell and buy
good clothes, as heshould never use them
more In this cruel world.
