DEATH OF PASCAL SMITH

Broken In Mind and Body by Long Devo-
ton to Business Akairs-suppsssd Sui
eide at Marssilles, France.
A cable dispatch of yesterday from Paris,
France, reads as follows: 'sThe body of
Pascal Smith, millionaire merchant, of st.
Paul, Mimi, has been found of Marseillss'
coast. He arrived al MarseilIes with his
wife and son, the 18th inst, and next even
Ing he was missed, and is supposed to have

tai and physical condition. From having
been an active, self-relisnt and enterprisine
man of business, such as he was through
most of his life, he had within few years
become broken in both bodily and mental
bealth, and was when he left here, a few
months ago, in such condition that his
friends had little hope of his recovery.
When quite young Mr.. Smith engaged in
commercial business in an interior town of
New York, and was fairly successful, but the
place and business did not afford him full
field for the exercise of his business tslents,
and he sold out and came West. At Red
Wing, in this State, he established and suc-
cessfully managed for several years the State
bank, of BED Wing. From Red Wing he
removed st. Paul, and here entered into the
wholesale dry goods business with Mr.. J. 81.
Camp. MIR. Camp retiring on account
Of i'll health, Mr. Smith continued the busi-
ness for some months, but finally sold it and
thereafter devoted himself to his scattered
Investments in loans and In various business
enterprises. He served one term in our CITY
council for the Fourth ward, and was re-
elected for second term, but
about this time his mental NAL
ady became 30 prominent las to
attract some attention from those associated
with him. Ii was probably still more ap-
parent to himself, for he resigned from the
council and, under plea of private business,
withdrew as much as possible from observa-
tion. 1t is doubtless true that his long devo-
ton to business affairs was the principal
cause of his malady.
Something over year ago he was induced
to place his affairs In Shape to permit of his
wholly retiring from business and, under
care of his wife, he was taken away for rest,
travel and medical treatment. The symp-
toms of mental weakness and depression
shown in his case before he left home rem
der it probable that acute melancholy was
developed, leading to his suicide.
Mrs. Smith and their married son are ths
only surviving members Of the family. Two
daughters. grown to womauhood, have died
since the family removed to st. Paul, Mr..
Smith was probably not millionaire, In the
currency of this country, but was wealthy
enough to be counted millionaire in
France. During their residence here Mr..
and Mrs. Smith were among the foremost
in support of the First M. e. church and in
promotion of charitable institutions.

Murder Trta,s In Le sueur County.

Murder Trials f,a Le Sueur County.
Especial to the Globe.
LIE SuHUR CENTRE, Nov. 2S.--An adjourned
term of the district court, Judge j. L. Mao
donald presiding, commenced here yester-
day for the trial of two cases of murder IN
the first degree. One is the State against
Mary @. Weishar, who is charged with the
murder of her husband on the 11th day Of
April last, at the town of Kasota. This will
be remembered by many of your readers, as
the case where the defendant, on the night
of the murder, ran to neighbor's house
and told them that two men were
in their house, for the purpose OF robbery,
and she feared they would murder her hus-
band; and that upon the neighbor going to
the house with her, Weisher was found dead
with two bullet wounds upon his body. Inves-
tigation led to the arrest and Indictment of
the wife, and she is now on trial. The case
promises to be quite an interesting one, as
all the evidence is circumstantial. Attorney
General Start and County Attorney Emery
represent the prosecution, and Messrs. Sew
erance and Pfau of Mankato and F. Cad
we'll of this county are for the defendant.
The other case is that OF
the State against Thomas
O'Connor, charged with the murder of Law
renee Vaughan on the 22d day of October,
at the town of Washington in this county.
O'Oonnor will be remembered as the person
who killed Vaughan at that time, by stab
bing him in the abdomen. in the night, after
calling him ont of his house, and who, after
committing the deed, fed, and was within
dav or two arrested near the village of
WatervilIe. The theory of the defense has
not yet been developed. The prosecution in
this case will be managed by the county at
torney, assisted by Hon. NJ. J. Severance.
The defendant Is represented by O. d.
O'Brien, of your city, and Mr.. Caldwell.
The case of Mrs. Weisher is now before the
court. The regular panel of jurors has been
exhausted and only three jurors secured. The
sheriff is now out with special venire for
fifty persons, from which it is expected to
secure the other nine jurors to try this case.
The indications are that the trial OF these
two cases will consume more than this week.
