The Late Susan Denim.

The celebrated actress, Miss susan Denim.
died AZ Button. Indiana, yesterday morn
city last night. Her husband, Colonel Nor
ris, is stopping at the Grand hotal Miss
Denim had lived an eventful life. Toe dead
lady's original name was Denim, and she
went or the stage al an early age. She is said
10 have been, I'm early life, the handsomest
woman ever seen on the stage. Sac hal a
step her a comedian named John Winsns,
reputed 10 have been q drunken. brutal fell
low, who treated the young actress shame
fully, and she contracted a marriage alliance
with merchant OF Syracuse, y. ", named
FOX, but the marriage was an unhappy one.
aud a separation was soon effected. Miss
Denim then married a man named Hunting
ton, minstrel man, and separated from
MIN; she then married major In the Uni
ted States Army, at Washington. aud by
him has one living daughter, a charming
young lady aged about sixteen years. Her
next husband was Colonel Morris, who now
sincerely mourns her death. With Colonel
Morris, who is spoken OF on all hands as a
most estimable gentleman, the poor Lady
lived for twelve years quietly and happily.
Denim told General MacauIey that her mar
ried life with Colonel Morris hal been bliss
full and happy, and that she was as com
pleteiy contented as any woman In the
world. Miss Denim was at one time an ac-
tress OF great deal more than ordinary
merit, and she and her sister, Kate, who sur
wives her, successfully starred IL through
this country and Europe.
The cause OF Miss DENNIS death was a fall
she received on the Academy OF Music stage.
IN this city, about four weeks ago. She was
Playing Leah, and in the bridge scene the
structure gave way, precipitatiug her 10 the
stage, distance of about seven feet. At
nrst III was though that the injury received
was slight. and the lady. by the force OF her
strong will power, continued playing herdif-
ncult roles for nearly week, but was ulti-
mately compelled 10 take TO her bed and she
has never since been well woman. BY The
fall She received severe internal injuries from
which she never recovered. AS above stated
the career OF the dead actress was a remark
able and varied one She at one time caused
an excitement by cowhiding Mr.. Fred. Kent,
an actor, at Cleveland, OHIO, and she has
had quite a newspaper notOriety. Susan
Denim had warm, impulsive heart, and a
hand always open 10 charity.-Infid1lTpO

a RABBIT PLAGUE IN NEVADA farm
er In from ranch about twenty miles below
Panaca yesterday informed us that the fields
OF growing vegetation, etc, are totally des-
troyed by large armies OF rabbits that infest
that section of country. These pests visit
the different ranches every morning and
make general tour through the grain and
vegetable crops, devouring and destroying
every thing IN their march. One farmer,
whose rancho is In Meadow Valley Wash,
had his entire crop or cabbages and grain
destroyed. The farmer has been patiently
cultivatiDg this plot OF ground for the last
three months, with the expectation of laying
in enough provisions for the winter, and
when about ready for the market these pests
made their appearance on his ranch, with
the above result. His loss is estimated at
about 500. Prairie's ranch, fifty miles north
OF Phoebe, has been visited by an army OF
these animals and fifty acrss of the finest
barley destroyed; and at the ranch OF Judge
Rives, In the valley below town, as soon as
the grass or alfalfa shoots above the ground
IL is devoured by the rabbits. Poisoned
wheat is going TO be freely used by the farm
ers, with the hope OF killing them OIL
