4 Horrible Tragedy {.

From Kansas City comes the particulars of
one OF the most horrible accidents that the
annals OF history could possibly contain
The gentleman who was the unfortunate
cause of his wife's death.is Mr.. +. q. NoOnan,
who is well known throughout this state,
having been for years in the type and news
paper Quitting business, and having helped
to furnish number of the papers now being
printed in Kansas.
The fearful tragedy occurred on Saturday
night last. the particulars being as follows
Mr. Noonan and famiIy-the latter consist
ing OF his wife and two brigh, little girls
retired about 3 o'clock, and shortly after he
had gone To sleep, Mrs. Noonan thought she
heard some one in the house. and aroused
her husband. Her idea was that the burglar
was IN the adjoining room where
the children was sleeping, and Mr..
Noonsn taking a revolver which he
always keeps under his pillow, started into
the room. There was no light in the house
and the night was very DARK, so that when
he entered he could see nothing. While
standing still, trying TO locate the Obj ects in
the room, he heard his wife say. ' See, the
window netting Is broken;" and just then lac
heard "A noise in the direction OF the bed In
which the children were sleeping He al
once cooked his revolver and held II in readi.
ness for an assault. Immediately following
the noise something fell at his feet, and ia
eudeavorIng tn jump back his other loot
struck the same u Ject, and in the melee
which folio ell the revolver was discharged.
Be ore the echo OF the report mad did away,
aud before ne had located any object, he
Hearu hi wlie'S voice say, - Help nIe, Fred,
am afraid you have killed me-"
FTI2r tened .,lmOst out OF his senses the
poor man se cured n light and found his vile
lying on the floor; and when he IIfted her
head, a stream oI brood poured out nom The
wound at the back OF the head. near the ear,
where the bail had entered. Assistance was
called at once, and everything done TO re-
IieVe her sulierlngS, but the germ of life had
been crushed-tne wife ami mother was
dead.
The theory rs sgardlDg the accident IS that
Mrs. Noonan hsd followed her husband int
the room, after speaking of her netting, had
gone to the bed wnere her children were and
ia leaving 1t had tripped ON the Fail ana IsI-
len upon the floor at his feet.

following letter, which speak7 for itself.
The company hold quite large amount OF
our boHds-mainly in=ta!lmsnt bonds,
as the railroad bonds, aud yet they offer
to compromise sll they hold upon the
terms offered by the city-forty cents fat.
Mayor Fortescue is pushing forward the
work of compromising in very vigorous
manner, and there is fair probability
that all OF the city Indebtedness will be re-
funded in reasonable time, without the
aid Of sgents or syndicates-aud this Ia the
best part OF; the gross amount OF discount
on the old bonds is saved TO tie Taxpayers
of the city, and is not expended in commits
sions and attorney fees. The mayor deals
direct with the bondholder-, and whatever
the city pays is paid direct TO the creditors.

Gueen VictOria's Love OF Privacy


The privileges which the Queen while q,
Baveno conferred upon the Italians OF be.
holding her in the flesh, and of doing honor
to her presence by illuminations and fire,
works. have excited and very justly excl.
ted, much comment in this country. In
gland Her NJ jesty goes like the veiled
prophet in Moore's poem; it 's almost i'm
possible to obtain a glimpse of her; she re.
coils from the English eye; she has reigned
for ne arly forty-three years, and there are
thousands of people in London Who have
never ,een her. snd whose only knowledge
OF her personal appearance is from the i'm
preston of her profile on coins. Such ira.
tional isrvor Of privacy, such extraordins.
~ fear Of encountering loyal eyes and hesr.
ing loysl shouts, is unprecedented in the
history OF sovereigns in Great Britain. Did
she carry this horror of publicity with her
on her travels. whether north or south, such
cause for it might be copjectured as even
Tory squire might find credible; but il
has long been known that in Scotland, and
now We have been taught, in Italy, too. Her
Majesty will lift her Mocanna like veil srd
exhibit a condescension which nothing
short OF stray Engiishman incsutiously
towering in the neighborhood can sup
