feet is kept up. Numbers Of bouquets and
horse-shoes were showered on the pedes-

Guyon's pace continues good, but Roweli
keeps bis lead, and the efforts to close the
gap seem rather to widen it. At the end OF
the sixty seventh hour he had made 200
miles and laps, which left him just St
miles behind Blower Browns best time on

boy, has taken to running, and is working
to close up the gap between himself and

and fits around the track at quick pace.
He seems to look more for gaining applause
for occasional bursts than for decreasing
Rowelrs lead of nearly sixty miles. Ennis
is falling behind, owing to nausea. Hazael
seems lame, but maintains an astonishing
gait. He got one lap ahead OF Guyon at IL
O'clock, and thus took the third place in the

Shocking Tragedy I'm Connections.
RECTOR SHOT BIZ HIS WIFE.

BRIDGEPORT, CT, September PA shock
ing tragedy occurred in the quiet village Of
Stratiord this morning. Rev. David L.
Lounsbury, rector Of Christ church, was
shot by his wife as he lay asleep and in
siantly killed. A coroner's jury was sum-
moncd, and assembled at O'Clock A. NJ.
Mary Cummings, Il servant, testified that
she has lived in the family seven weeks;
the relations of the husband and wife were
exceptionally pleasant: she knew Mrs.
Lounsbury to be an Invalid. Mrs. Louns-
bury bad remarked to witness the previous
night, saying Mr.. Lnunsbury desired her to
have an operation performed. but she had
refused. and asked il he could make her,
when he replied, II you don't / will put
you out.' / heard noise about $50
O'Clock went to the door and met Mrs
Lounsbury, who said:
"IHAyE KILLED MY HUSBAND"
Annie May, 4 bright girl OF eleven years,
the only child Of the deceased, was awaken
ed by the noise OF Il revolver. She went
down stairs and shook her father, then
dressed and went for q physician. Her
mother had been more i'll than usual the
previous evening. DR.. \. s. Allen probed
the wound and aScertaincd that the ball had
entered the base OF the brain two inches be-
low the occipital protubcrance and an inch
to the left OF the medal line, passing
obliquely upward. The pistol was Il cheap
thrty-two revolver. From lady II lend OF
the family and members OF the parish it was
learned that Ms. Lounsbury purchased the
revolver in New Haven 4 year ago on ac-
count Of timidity consequent upon an at
tempt TO burglarIZe the house She had con-
cealed the knowledge Of its purchase from
her husband. She is q lady OF very full
habit, and subject to rllshcs OF blood to the
head. She remembers having an attack of
that kind in the night. The deceased arose
and got her drink OF water, after which
she recolects nothing until the deed was
done. She is sufferer also from neu-
ralgia. Mr.. Lounsbury was nearly thirty
six years OF age, and 4 graduate OF Trinity
College. Mr.. and Mrs. LounSbury have
been located at Stratford for Il year and a
half, during which time the rector made
many friends, but his wife not being in the
habit OF receiving callers is almost stran-
ger to the members of the parish. She
is very much Frustrated by the shock,
and declines to converse, not knowing
what to say. There is said to have been in
sanity in her family. There seems to he lit
tie ground for doubt that the deed was done
during a tit OF temporary insanity caused by
bodily disease and excitement incident to
the proposed operation, to which she OBJ
iccted. The coroner'S jury rendered 4 YER
dict that the deceased came to his death by
pistol-shot in the hands OF bis wife, the act
being committed during a condition OF tenn
porary arrangement Of mind, occasioned by
disease.
