The Leap In the Dark.

Yesterday afternoon, Daniel Brost, q
stone cutter by trade, who lives on the
National road above Sixth street, at
tempted to leave the scene of his earthly
usefulness via a revolver. He had gone
to work in the morning, as usual, hut
while chipping away at a stone had told
a fellow workman of his intention and
showed Il revolver in enforcement OF his
resolve. Ii was considered braggadocio
and but little attention paid to 1t.
After eating his dinner at noon he
went into his bedroom and after a short
absence pistol shot was heard, and
upon entering the room he was found
living on the floor with blood flowing
from a wound in his left side. \ ply
stefan was summoned and upon eXami-
nation found wound about four or
five inches below the left nipple
and almost over the heart, which
organ, however, was uninjured, and
BroSt still alive. The ball had struck
a rib, and glancing downward passed
through the diaphragm and penetrated
the stomach. Brost'S life is now hang
ing i'm the balance with the chances
rather against him, rs he has lost much
blood. and is liable to inflammation.
So far as we could learn, the causes
that led to the commission of the act
are not known. Some OF the neighbOrs
attribute it to mental troubles and some
To financial embarrassment. 1t was
evident he intended to relieve himself
Of life, the position of the seat OF which
he was well acquainted with, Had the
ball gone two inches higher his object
would have been attained, though he

The Chnnline Graveyard.

During our rambles on yesterday IN
search OF news, we passed the now de-
serted by all living, except cats, dogs and
vandalizing boys, graveyard at the head
OF Twenty-third street, South Side,
known as the "Chapline Burying
Ground" This place has lately been
brought into notice, and with the hope
of finding something OF interest, we en-
tered and proceeded to examine the
different headstones, so far as they were
in upright positions. Many, having
fallen TO mother earth with the faces
down. were inaccessible by any unaided
strength. The majority OF those up
right were completely illegible. Those
cut from marble were the most crum,,
bled, while the sandstOnes were all
more or less perfect, an argument IN
favor Of the use of the latter.
The slabs covering the remains OF the
Chapline family, with the exception OF
William Chapline and his wife, are al
most entirely covered with sand, the
washings from the higher ground above.
This should not be. 1t seems as If those
who have some near and possibly dear
connections living in the "silent city OF
the dead" should make some effort to
replace the stones now lying around
loose, and in manner make the place
have better appearance than that OF
an old marble and sandstone yard, and
a disgrace to all proper feeling for the
departed. Perhaps, inasmuch as this
place was a free gift to the city, Council
should take some measures to have
everything removed or the spot placed
i'm al least decent repair.

Plant Flowers.

Never before were there so many
Howers-we mean roses and budding
p'ants-sold i'm this market rs this year.
And never was the assortment so
choice or the prices so reasonable.
This increase i'm the supply comes Of
the great increase i'm the demand. The
masses are becoming educated to a
feeling that flowers are not simply a
luxury but an actual necessity in the
economy of their houses and the edu-
cation ot the tastes and morals OF their
children. II is we'll that this Is so.
Flowers and pictures should no more
be dispensed with in thehousehold than
books and bread. The time has now
arrived for getting out many varieties Of
bedding plants. Nerbcnas may now be
bcldcd with advantage. And the finest
plants Of this iavorite flower we have
vet found are sold 10y Mr.. Nowyioch,
