House, on tho Gilroy road. discovered
tho dead body Of q man under a tree.
partly covered with brush, about 200
yards from 4 gate entering TO the lagoon.
Marks about the head proved he had
been brutally murdered. On tho back
OF the head was o wound which looked
rs II It was made with q pick, and
several inches deep. The skull was
fractured near tho ear. and every indica-
ton points to the fact that his hsad re-
ceiyed u dozen or more blows from q
club or some such instrument, tho
Coroner held an inquest last night. It
was discovered that the mans name was
Frederick Boehlkc. aged about 81 years,
and that no was a native Of Prussia. He
was well.known bore, and wal formerly

A crazy negro woman caused quite
a sensation here last Thursday by at.
tempting to c5Am.t suicide. She de.
liberately walked on the track in the
way Of a train which was backing up,
and would have been instantly killed
if she had not been driven of. After
the train stopped sSs %dht and sat on
The track under one Of the box cars,
out Of sight Of the engineer. He was
Jast in the act Of starting the train, but
was stopped barely in time to save her
frofa a horrible 'aeath. She was then
arrested and sent 70 the poor house.
We understand she came from the
Carroll Posr house = this place. Her
psne Is Jane Cloptca.
