Francis wistar's Pathetic Letter to
His Wife and Child.
PHILADELPHIA, May 1.-Francis Wistar,
the retired broker, who committed suicide
Friday night by taking laudanum at his
boarding house, No. 1880 Spruce street,
left the following pathetic letter on one
of the tables in his bed room:
FRIDTY EVENING, 10:50.-Forgive me,
Katie, but it is no use-my truitless Ell
forts. I would have told you tonight but
could not bear to see you weep. MY
darling, live for Mamie, and when this
passing cloud is lifted you will thank me
for being no longer cloud in both OF your
lives. Comfort her little heart, and tell
her my last thoughts were for her and YOU
Farewell. FRANK.
Mrs. Wistar, to whom this letter was ad-
dressed, has been separated from her hus-
bsnd for some time, and lives at No. 2O23
Spring Garden street.
The Dead Man
visited his wife on Friday evening previous
to taking the fatal dose, and returned TO
his boarding house very gloomy and des-
pondent. He went to his room at IL
O'Clock and blew out the gas, evidently in
tending to kill himself in that way, but
some OF the boarders discovered the escap-
ing gas and aroused him from the bed
where he thrown himself with his clothes
on. The gas was then turned out, but soon
afterward he poured large quantity OF
laudanum into his shaving cup and drank
il. His body was discovered on Saturday
afternoon, when the people OF the house,
becoming suspicious of his long stay in the
room. broke open the door and

in terrible mental distress. He leaves q

her mother at No. 2,023 Spring Garden

tenderly refers in his last letter to his wife,
and his visit to her on Friday was evident
ly intended as one of farewell, although he
did not breathe a word of his terrible reso'
'ution to either wife or child.

OIL DEVELOPMENTS,

From Parkersburg.
Special 10 the Register.

PARKERsRURG, May 1.-The deep oil well
at Horse Neck" about fifteen miles from
here, was charged with 40foot shell Of
nitro glycerine, equivalent to 1000 pounds
of powder, and exploded, causing an in
crease of oil and gas, but just how much
cannot be determined until the debris is
removed. However, the parties interested
are sanguine that oil will be obtained IN
paying quantity at that level, which is 300
feet. Three otner deep wells are located,
and will be put down at once.

Ex-Sheriff Foster, of Writ county, and

and will begin operations at once. and ex-
pect to obtain heavy oil at comparatively
shallow depth, as it is known to exist
there. The first development will be the
celebrated "oil rock" territory, eight miles
south of Burning Springs. From the pres
ent outlook it seems that the oil belt will
be largely developed during the summer.
