Himself.
From the WindOm Reporter, June 26.
Last Saturday morning Christian Even
son, of Westbrook, committed suicide BY
first taking strychnine and then shooting
himself. The facts, as best we can ascer-
tain, are as follows: He engaged in his
usual occupations, Friday, until after dinner,
when he wrote several letters, went and en-
gagged Thorb. Einertson to bring them to
| mail. He loaded both barrels of his gun,
heavily, and when asked by his wife what
he was going TO do, replied, going to shoot
rabbit. lie went into grove near the
house, which he planted himself, and staked
out the place where he wanted his
grave to be. He hoed corn as usueL
| till near night, when he came m,
sharpened his knife very sharp, tLen shaved
and bathed himself very particularly. These
| unusual proceedings aroused his wife, but to
all her inquiries as to what he was doing or
going to do, he gave only careless or indif-
ferent replies. After the days work had all
been we'll done. they sat in the doorway to-
gether with their 11-months- old baby. Bed
time came and they went into the house.
He securely fastened down the windows,
bored a hole over the door latch and drove
IN file; this again alarmed his wife and she
refused to comply with his request to retire,
so he finally went to bed too. Mrs. Evenson
could not sleep and says he did not,
but asked her several times why she did
not go to sleep, saying she was tired and
needed rest. At half past three he rose,
dressed himself in old clothes he had not
worn for long time, and took up his gun.
his wife IN the meantime had dressed, and
begged to know what he was going to do,
and asked him to put the gun out doors,
which he did by thrusting it through hole
between two logs where the chinking had
fallen out. and then went out himself. His
wife followed him, and he went back into
the house; she stopped moment to see if
the neighbors were mp, then went in, and he
said, holding up the bottle: ssSec here Mol
he, have taken poison it will soon al. y
over with me now" She tried to persu.M
MIN to take an emetic, which he refused, and
gave as his reason that he must either
klH some else and 90 to State
prison, or kill himself. Mrs. Evenson
took her child and ran to L. M. Bakers,
about eighty rods away, for help. MIR. Baker
sprang on horse, started at once, and when
nearly there heard the report of gun. On
arriving he found Mr.. Evenson lying on the
grass with nearly all of his nose and upper
up shot away and in spasms, which was
probably the reason the gun shot did not
make fatal wound. He fingered in hor-
rioie agony, conscious and able to speak
until 6, when he died.
mar. Everson was smart, intelligent man,
ana MS sad death is deeply regretted by
many friends. From the letters he wrote
jealousy seems to have been his main
reason, though many feel this to be an un-

How Dick Taylor Snubbed a Prince

1t is related of General Dick TAYLOR
that during the Derby races the Prince
of Wales took him to his own (the
Prince's) stand, and as they were ascend

hastily up and said:

booked to win?'

stand and laid fifty guineas for me on
him.
Turning to Taylor, the Duke said:
"Now, won't you please go to tho
stand and lay fifty guineas for me or
him."
"Pardon me, your Highness," said
Taylor; "the stand is quite as near to you
as to me" ,
81 am so glad you told Edinburg that, ,
said the Prince. "What deal of cheek
he has to be asking my guest to lay his
bets for HIM.
Taylor had a sincere respect and liking
for the Prince, and a hearty contempt
for the Duke of Edinburg, whom he snub.
ned on more than one occasion. Apart
from the personal character of the Duke
he was only the second son of a Queen
while Taylor was the only son of a real
President of the United States.

lished of the work performed by road To-
comotives during the war in the east.
The first experiments made with military
traction engines in Russia were carried
outin 1876, when the results obtained
were so satisfactory that twelve road To-
comotives with carriages were at once
ordered for the use of the army. When

gines were dispatched to the theatre of
operations in the valley of the Danube,
where they were employed in the first in

station, transporting in this way, be-

six miles, and this at much less expense
than would have been incurred had or

THE Khedive of Egypt is human, like
the rest of the world. He objects to be-
ing forced to resign his position. OF
fce-holding is as dear to him as to an
American. He clings with tenacity to
the royal altitude to which events have
raised him, and from which he looks
down upon his royal master. Without
Egypt he will be nobody; but Egypt
without him may be either English OF
French. 1t is probable that that prehis-
toric land will pass under the rule of the
image-savers and the image breakers Of
the nineteenth century.
