shocking case Of rape, incest and suicide
has been developed here. In August
last Edward Coulson married. Miss Jen-
kins and shortly after Julia Crawford
made a charge against him of rape.
Coulson succeeded in persuading her to
let the matter drop. Last Saturday,
Coulson's sister, aged twenty years, per-
ferred charge against him of fornication
and bastardy. When Cou'son heard of
this he was shaving himself, and when,
in answer to his query, his wife told him
what was the matter he grabbed the
razor and ran out Of the house aud was
never again seen alive, His body was
found floating in the river this morning.
To-day his sister gave birth to q child.
The desolation which this villain has
caused cannot be computed, bit the
hate of relatives and acquaintances can
be imagined from the fact that ten hours
at least since the body was found it still

A Pension Thief Convicted.

A Pension Thief Convicted.
At Milwaukee, on Monday last, the
arguments in the George H. Daubner
pension fraud case were concluded in
the United States court and Judge Dyer
delivered a lengthy charge to the jury,
in which he summed up the testimony
carefully, and concluded by instructing
"the twelve men, good and true" to
bring in a verdict based solely on the
merits of the testimony. After being out
less than two hours verdict of guilty
was rendered. 1t will be remembered
that Daubner was last year arrested On
the charge of fraudulently obtaining a
pension by claiming his health was per-
manently ruined by army service. The
usual motion for new trial was made,
and the defendant was required to enter
into a new recognizance in the sum of
81, 800, pending the motion. The penalty
of the crime for which Daubner stands
convicted is imprisonment at hard labor
for not less than one year nor more than
FIVE years, and a fine not more than
5000 nor less than 81 900.
