Death in a Hotel.

a Snowman Shoots His Wife--Acoiden-
: +ally, as He CLAIM Wilfully, as the
Law Asserts.
From the Cincinnati Gazette % instl
At about half past eleven o'clock
yesterday morning considerable ex-
element was occasioned in the Metro
politan Hotel, on Main street, near the
leyee, by the persistent ringing of the
bell connecting room No. 36 with the
office. The first corners, upon enter
ing the room whence the loud sum-
mons came, witnessed a CHASTITY sight.
Seated upon the bed was the male oc-
cipant of the room, James C. Davis,
rs he had registered himself, and in
his arms lay the limp and almost life
less form of his wife. Blood was is
suing from his mouth, and on her
right lower jaw, just under the bone,
it had evidently flowed pretty freely.
A Colts navy revolver lay upon the
floor. A little Mexican dog had
sought to hide himself in one corner
Of the room, but aside from this there
was nothing in the appearance of the
room calculated to excite wonderment
or even more than passing notice.
The husband, penetrating the mean
ing of the suspicious seowls bestowed
upon him, at once explained matters.
He said that he had been sitting in the
room in conversation with his wife,
and holding the dog in,his arms. His
wife had requested him to take the
which was lying, fully cooked,
upon the mantel piece, and shut down
the hammer, as the eharnbermaid, in
cleaning mp the room that morning,

A BAD HABIT.-A far to prevalent
habit exists among our young men and
elderly ones too, in many instances,
of speaking disparagingly of the vir-
tue of the opposite sex, No man who
entertains proper regard for his
mother and sisters, with the slightest
sentiments of honor, will be guilty of
casting damaging inuendoes against
the fair fame of women individually
or collectively. All the influence
which women enjoy in society-the
right to the exercise of that maternal
care which forms the first and most
indelible species of education; the
wholesome restraint which they pos
sess over the passions of mankind;
their powers Of protecting us when
young, and cheering us when old
depends SO entirely upon their per-
sonal purity, and the charm which it
casts around them, that to insinuate
a doubt of its real value is wilfully to
remove the broadcast cornerstone up
on which civil society rests, with all
its benefits and comforts. Exchange.

The Nashville Banner of the 18th
says: "Day before yesterday twenty
five of the girls employed at the cot
ton factory in North Nashville were
poisoned with yerdigris by drinking
tea from,a pewter pot at their board
ing-house. Medical aid was summon
ed, and when last heard from the girls
were improved and considered safe.
Those using brass knives, spoons and
forks, ETC., coated with silver imita-
ton and other table ware, producing
bibasic acetate of copper, are liable to
be poisoned, and sometimes never re-
cover their health. Brass forks
coated with silver imitation, are very
dangerous aud should be used by no
family" tl >
