On Monday night, May 6, young

er, Of the Mt. Carmel community,
in this county, left her room clan
destineIy in her stocking feet, went
to a small branch nearly half a
mile from home, and drowned her.
self in hole of water fourteen in
ches deep. She was found the next
morning an hour by sun. Her face
was resting under the water in
both her hands, her elbows were
resting upon the bottom of the
branch, and the back of her head
was dry. Her health had not been
good for more than a year, and she
was addicted to parOxysms of mel
ancholy, though none of the family
had ever suspicioned her of border
ing on insanity, which doubtless
was the cause of her death. She
had evidently prearranged the
whole matter.

MAY 8.
The question Of the Mcdaniel
pond being brought up as the order
of the day, the Street Committee
reported that they had enquired
into the requirements of the case
and the means for meeting them.
They are unanimous as to the neces-
sity for draining that part of the
town and can report no feasible plan
except that of carrying a sewer
from the pond to the river, which
plan they recommended. Much
discussion arose regarding the pro-
posed drainage, the heavy expense
being objected to, and finally it was
decided that the Mayor and three
other Aldermen should be added to
the Street Committee, that they
should take the opinion of a skilled
engineer and report plans and esti-
mates at the next regular meeting
of the Board. Aldermen Rick,
Faxon and Dugan were appointed
said committee.
Alderman FaXon offered an ordi-
nance for the government of the
public schools, which passed its
first reading.
The amended ordinance relating
to the storage of coal oil which
passed its first reading at the last
meeting was now read a second
time and passed. This ordinance,
together with the ordinance passed
at the last meeting for enforcing the
State vagrant law, were both ordered
to be printed. The following are
the two ordinances:
