Those of our citizens living in the vicinity
of"Church hill" in the suburbs of this city,
were startled yesterday morning on learning
that one of their most respected and valued
neighbors, Mr.. Danforth Foster, had COM
mitted suicide by cutting his throat with ra-
zor. Mr.. Foster was well odo farmer,
most industrious and active man, living hap
PLY with his wife and two small children.
His father also lived with him. Yesterday
morning Mr.. Foster arose before daylight, as
usual, took lantern and went to the barn
for the purpose of feeding his cattle. AS he
tarried longer than usual, and as the day be-
fore he was seized with fainting his father
went to the barn, thinking it likely that he
had again been attacked with fainting. Mr..
Foster went into the barn and up to the hay
loft, where he found his son lying dead upon
the hay, weltering in his blood, with throat
cut from ear to ear, grasping in his right hand
arazor withwhich he had committed the dread
full deed. The deceased was rising forty years
of age. No cause whatever can be assigned for
the act.

Bismarck has sent despatch to Won
Armien, the German representative at Paris,
setting forth the state of evaporation caused
in Germany by the outrages perpetrated on
her soldiers in France. He threatens to
seize hostages in the future if those who es-
cape into neighboring provinces are not de-
lvered to the German government by French
authorities, and declares that unless these
horrible outrages cease, the army of occupa-
ton will be increased, and the expense and
burden of its support which is paid by France
doubled.

The same authority in an article on the pres
ent aspect of Europe, says that other powers
should see no danger to themselves in the
friendship of Russia and Germany. Their
common interests suffice to explain their mu-

One of tie most popular errors which we
encounter in this vicinity is the idea that the
Singer machine is adapted only for heavy and
coarse work. Now while we claim that it
will make a perfect seam in heavier work
than any other family machine, we are ready
to meet any machine that is made, and COM
pete with them on fine work, allowing them
to pick their own fabric. We know and free
ly assert, from oft repeated trials, that no
machine can do fine work any better. We
will hem, fell, tuck, ETC., the finest lawn,
muslin, or lace, and will make seam with
perfectly even tension, haring no loops on
the under side. At the New England fair
this year, after the most thorough and search
ing test that sewing machines were ever put
through, the committee awarded the highest
premium, over all others, to the Singer.
