A terrible affair recently happened in
Puebla. An employee Of the railroad
brought home all his savings, $3.50 in
bank bills, as surprise to show his
wife, who did not know he had that
amount Of money. Hearing the ap-
proach of the train he put them on the
table and ran out to his work and his
wife went to the door to look after him.
During her absence her little three-yea
old daughter crawled up to the table,
and seeing the roll Of bright.colored
papers, threw them in the fire. The
father on his return, on learning Of the
less, struck the child such terrible
blow as to kill ii, and that night, filled
with remorse, cast himself under the
wheels of train and committed suicide.
The mother went insane and is now in
the asylum.
