A Fearful Tragedy-Suicide of
Will Carlton His Terrible
Death.

our citizens were startled yesterday
morning by the announcement that Will
Carlton, son of The late VIM. Carlton, OF
this city, had committed suicide by taking
strychnine. Will, who was lad of some
~ years, had been clerking some time in
Rupp's drug store. On Thursday night,
we are informed, he went to bed in the
store, between 10 and IL o'clock, with a
fellow clerk and a young man who clerks
for knOblOck & Chaplin. VIII was very
lively and told the boys to have as much
fun as possible as that was the last night
they would sleep together. Shortly after
making this remark he gotup and went to
the prescription counter His compan-
ions shortly followed him and found him
with bottle of strychnine in his hand.
1t was taken from him but he got hold of

the midst OF it the bottle fell to the floor
and was broken Carlton said he didn't

came up to Gushing & Cos corner. fol-

he was found by Dr. Rupp, who had been
summoned by the other. He was imme-

called. VIII went in the house and re-
quested to see his younger brother who
was asleep, kissed him and then tried to
Lave the house, but was prevented after
a hard struggle He then stood by the
stove short time, and just as DR.. H. ar
rived, fell prone on the floor and was ia
ken with spasms. All attempts to get
stomach pump down his throat were un-
availing, and after having some fifty
spasms, in which he experienced the most
terrible agony death relieved him of his
sutferings. His death occurred at four o.
clock Yesterday morning. Will had fire.

The Jurnel Case.

A highly interesting case is now being
tried in the United States Circuit Court,
in New York; interesting because of par.
ties engaged and the amount involved.
Many years ago there was poor girl liv-
ing in Providence who went by the name
of Betsy Bowen. She was the daughter
of woman named Phoebe Keely and a
sailor by the name of Bowen. She lived
in Providence until she was 10, when she
gave birth to son, and shortly after
ward removed to New York, where she
lived under an assumed name. Her life
there was a strange one, but she finally
married Stephen Jumel. Upon his death
she became the wife of Aaron Burr, and
thus from life of shame and crime rose
by steady degrees until she stood at the
pinnacle of Washington society, as the
wife of the second man in the nation.
Forty years ago this woman instituted
proceedings against Burr for divorce. OBJ
tanning decree in her favor She then
resumed the name of her first husband,
anC up to the time of her death. which
occurred in 1865, went by the name Nine.
Jumel. She was immensely wealthy,
her estate being valued at $4,000, 900.
This was taken possession of by the hus-
Dand OF ner niece and adopted daughter,
Nelson Chase, and he has since continued
in the enjoyment of it. Now, however,
appears new claimant in the person of
one George Washington Bowen, who
claims to be an illegitimate son of Nine.
Jumel by Colonel Ballou, man of revo-
lutlor ary fame. Under the statute of
1860 lllegitimate children can inherit
from their mothers, and under this statute
Mr.: Bowen urges his claims. The most
eminent counsel are employed on both
sides, ex-Attorney Geleral Hoar acting as
the chief counsel for the claimant, and
Charles O'Connor for the defendant. The
case was tried once, but the Jury failed to
agree. A special panel was then sum-
moned from the business men of the city,

So merriy we'd go
A sliding down the hill.

But it is an i'll wind that will blow nc
one good. Though it may be chilly, we
can comfortably enjoy ourselves while
sitting around our stoves and fire places
talking with those we love, or conversing
with the different parts of the world,
through the medium of your excellent
parer. Thus we may profitably pass the
hours of those long evenings, which
winter through cold kindness, is good
enough to bring, giving US an opportunity
of knowing the haps and mishaps of
others. While l am sketching a few
thoughts, the wind is singing his winter
song, (perhaps serenading), which,

Some of the farmers have got through
the irksome task of corn husking, (but
by no means all of them,) which is the
most dreaded of all the fall work on the
prairie, not dreaded because it is hard
work, but because there is so much of it
to do. l have been making some inquiry
about the number of acres, the corn crop
of this county would average to each
farmer. think about 45 or so acres will
not be much out of the way. The yield
is not so good this season as it has been
some others, on account of the dryness
of the fore part of the summer; but farm
ers think that from 40 to so bushels per
acre, is as much as they can expect. A
great many o. them worked without
missing scarcely day; but some of them
cannot finish before Christmas. In
some fields "a good many might be seen
men, wcmen, boys and girls, picking the
ripe ears of corn.
Whilethe corn crop this year was not so
good as former ones, the wheat is much
better, averaging in some localities 20
bushels per acre. Oats, of which there
was very large amount sown, yield
about 55 bushels per acre. Barley, not
so much sown, yielded about 40 bushels
