Sad Case of Suicide.

Last Thursday morning Louis Capell, a
resident OF the 9Th ward living just beyond
the Silver Greek Bridge, went into his barn
and with GOODNESS and deliberation placed a
musket loaded with shot a. his breast aud
fired, the charge enteriag his body in the
region OF the heart, killing him instantly.
One Of the unfortunate mans sons having
occasion to visit the barn before going to
school found his father quite dead, with the
instrument of his death lying beside him.
coroner's jury was summoned which
rendered a verdict of suicide. No facts we're
elected as showing any cause for The act
other than that Capell had been laboring
under fl of melancholy and had appeared
mentally depressed for few months previ-
Gus. Capell was living with his second
| wife but there was no evidence of there ev-
er having been any trouble in the family
| which would result in Capell taking his own
some SIX months ago having sold farm
near Middleton. He purchased brick
| house and FIVE acres of land in the Fifth
ward, on which he lived at the time of his
death by his own hands. Along with the
| piece of property, be had some $4,000 out
| upon interest, so that he was deemed COM
| fortably well off. He was frequently at
tackled by fits Of melancholy, brought on by
| having so little to do on the small amount
| of land he had to take care Of This cond-
ton resulted in general mental depression,
and it was while in this state that he com
mitted suicide. 1t is certainly very sad
case.

Obituary..

Once more we are called upon to chroni-
Gle the decease of an esteemed fellow citizen.
MI. Henry P. Russell breathed his last at
his residence in the First ward, on Saturday
evening, Nov. Oath, 1877, aged SO years,
two months and twenty-four days. Mr..
Russell was born in Liverpool, England,
and when mere child came to Canada with
his parents. In the year 1867 he went to
Milwaukee and engaged in business, becom-
ing member of the firm of Piper & Russell,
Spring street, dealers IN dry goods. Three
years later Mr.. r. located in Pennington,
Jefferson county, and carried on cou utry
store. Closing up his business in Farming
ton he removed with his family to water
town, and in March last year opened fancy
grocery store in Canes building. Failing
health compelled him to give up business
the following September. His health con-
tinuing to decline, he sailed for the Island o!
Saint Thomas, West Indies, where his
brother resided, in the faint hope that the
moderate temperature Of that climate would
bring restoration to his physical condition.
Finding no relief, Mr.. Russell returned to
his home in this city in July. Since then
he has slowly wasted away with that dread
ed disease consumption, getting relief for
his intense pain and suffering only in death.
He bore his sick with meek ness and
Christian forttude, and his lamp went out
calmly and peacefully. Mr.. Russell was a
gentleman of quiet, unassuming manners,
dignifed and pleasant with all witch whom
he came in contact. He was a shining ex.
ample of a kind husband and loving faith.
err, and 10 his family his loss is rreparabe
He leaves wife and a daughter of tender
years, to mourn his decease. They, as wei
as the other relatives of the departed, hav,

EDITOR H~UsBANDMAN.
The statement made in your last issue that
tile gentlemen of New York, in their organ
ization of a dancing club, were ''stags," and
performed a 'stag Dance" is an unmitigat-
ed, extrayagant and outrageous SANDER on
the good people of New York, and is calcu-
lated to hatch innumerable %ructions in our
town. Our girls are not "on a strike for
SUPPER" 0 are they "unwilling to attend"
I am willing to solemnly affirm that on the
evening referred to ladies We're in attend
ance, and there was no stagnation club Or
ganization dance. Please correct.
Yours truely, FL. d.
We make it a rule not to publish any com
munication not accompanied by the name OF
the author, but in this instance we deviate
from that rule, as our correspondent may
not be acquainted with publishers regula-
tons, and give the above for what it is
worth. We have no desire to %misquote the
matters of our neighboring camps, or cast
any reflections upon the fair daughters OF
New York gulch. The statement made bv
us was a verbatim report by a gentleman OF
that vicinity. We maintain, however, that
in this advanced age the fair sex have a
right to ''strike'' for what and when they
please, except with a poker at a diminutive
husband when his back is turned.

DIAMOND. December II.

DIAMOND. December IL.
EDITOR UUsBANDMAN.
Permit me, through your columns, to call
the attention of parents and guardians to the
necessity Of seeing that their children learn
the lessons set them at their homes of an
evening. Allowing children to attend school
for a few hours during the day, and as 0
as school is dismissed letting go all hold of
their studies and everything connected with
with them until school assemblies, is unfair,
both to the teacher and the scholars. In the
successful education of a child quite as much
depends upon the influence of the parent at
home as upon the teacher at school. Neither
the stores, saloons or the streets are proper
places tor children attending school to spend
their evenings, and (trom complaints that
are being daily made to me) unless they are
kept from these places that which should be
a credit to the community is liable to become
a nuisance. Respectfully,
E. BRAssEY.
The merry voice of school children is mu-
gone days of happy childhood, and joys
NOW gone, John, forever" But while
there is a time to play, there is a time to
work, as well, and we would say to the boys
that if they hope to make a mark in the
world they must employ more hours at
study than those spent in school. They
must study at home; the school room il
merely the place to %recite, and receive in
struction. There is nothing to be gained il
idle gossip on the streets, nothing to be
learned in loafing about saloons and stores
Form Industrious habits now, that wher
you become men you may not depart there
from.
