SUICIDE AT THE POLICE sTATIoN.-A case of
city yesterday afternoon. The facts of the
case are as follows:
A man called at the police station yesterday
forenoon and asked to have an officer 90 to Dr.
Bacon's on Park street place to remove an IN
>toxisated woman. Officer Seth Sterling was
sent. On arriving at DR.. Bacon's house he
found Mary Moran, a woman who has been ar
rested many times before for drunkenness.
The officer took the woman to the station. She
was put into cell No. 10 and nothing more
thought of it until some one visiting the cell
room found her lying on her. bench with her
shaw over her head. Suspicion was aroused
and the cell opened, when it was found that
she was dead. The City Marshal at once sent
for the City Physician, who examined the body
supposing that death had resulted from poison
but on examining the neck of the unfortunate
woman ribbon that she had worn on her hair
was found wound three times around her ueck
and tied in as many hard knots As it was
very evident that she had strangled herself no
inquest was held. When found she was lying
on her back with shawl drawn tightly over
her face.
The woman was about Sc years Of age and
has lived in this city for some time. She was
married. but her husband left her soon after
the ceremony and since that time she has lived
rather rough life. She left money enough to
pay the funeral expenses. During the winter
and spring she lived in Hollis Centre and has
been in the city but short time since. She
leaves no relatives here at all. She was found
at DR.. Bacon's because she knew servant
who worked there and had called to see her, but
az she was greatly intoxicated they were oblig-
ed to send for the police. .t- lo

THAT LITTLE Doa.-A certain lawyer in this
city had dog shot. He offered reward for
the apprehension of the scoundrel who did the
deed. Saturday he heard that the man he
wanted lived in Stroudwater. He went to a
justice and got warrant for his arrest. The
warrant was given to an officer who was told to
meet him at certain store in iStroudwater
Village. The lawyer then proceeded to find
his man. He found him and asked him why
he killed the dog. The man replied that the
dog was killing his geese at the time he shot
him. At this confession the outraged attorney
drew off and struck the offender terrible blow
followed by several others. He then drove to
the place where the officer was, followed by the
man who killed the dog. When the officer saw
the man for whom he had warrant, he arrest
ed him, but as he is one of the first men in
Deering he was released on bonds to appear at
the Municipal Court tomorrow morning. DO
