The inquest last evening by Coro-

has doue nothing to solve the mystery
which surrounds his sudden taking of.
Ths fac, is. that his death cannot be &C.
counted for as an accident. Nothing
but a dark suspicion can meet all the
facts. The testimony Of the carmen Is
p~ositiy. that no wood was thrown from

dump could not have struck him within
twenty feet Of where he lay. The facts
show that the stick killed him. and that

is but one other theory upon which all
the conditions Of Mr.. Hourgassen's
death can be accounted for.
That the stick killed him Is undoubt-
edly true. and since IL could not have
been dumped with the rock and was not
thrown down by the carman. ii must be
that il was carried there by some person
aud that that CHASTITY wound WIS In.
