The following matter on this page appeared

comparatively few in the country care to pay
extra for the Sunday edition, which lies in the

A DRUNKARD's SUICIDE.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. I

AURORA, Ill, April Last evening at
about 8 CLOCK barber named Waldo pur-
chased some poison at one of our drug
stores professedly to poison rats. Some of
his actions aroused suspicion, and the
marshall was informed of the circumstan-
ces.. Waldo was a drunkard, and was soon
found in a saloon, whose proprietor had
been warned against giving him any
liquor. The man was taken to the Gala
boose, where the poison soon began to
work, and, Notwithstanding good medical
aid, he died at o'clock this morning.

WASHINGTON, November 7.-Impend-
ing changes in the Cabinet are so freely
discussed by politicians now that many
who are not usually impressed with such
rumors are led 10 believe that something
ofthis kind is really under consideration.
Public credence has lit upon Brewster
and Folger as the victims ofthe reOrgan-
ization, and the belief is general that
Brewster will atno distant day tender his
resignation. He got into the Cabinet by
accident, and in fact was really forced
upon the President by circumstances.
He had been employed by Nc
Veagh TO prosecute the Star Route
cases, and the public was so unan-
imous at that time in the opinion that
the accused were guilty, that the contin-
uance Of the same leaders in the proceed
ings seemed to be the Imperative demand
of the popular will. Garileld's Attorney
General literally ran away declaring that
he would not return from Philadelphia,
where he had intrenched himself, against
the Presidents request TO continue to act
until his successor should be appointed.
In this dilemma nothing could be done "a
defeat the charge of want Of vigor, should
the prosecution fail, except TO made one Of
the counsel Attorney General. Brewster
was the only one Of the lot who was in
any sense available, and he was taken al

Further Particulars In the
Horrible Tragedy-The Imme-

KANSAS CITY, November l0-A re-
porter arrived late tonight from the
scenes ofthe tragedy The details OF the
circumstances are briefly as follows:
Magee had gained the general dislike of
his neighbors or account of his violent
disposition, and the treatment of his fami-
ly caused much comment. His children,
returning home in the afternoon, opened
the door of the sitting room and saw their
mother lying dead on the floor. Stricken
with fear, they ran screaming to the
neighbors houses. A party soon gathered,
and fearing violence on account OF
Magees nature, they armed themselves
and then repaired to the house. In the
sitting room they found the body of Mrs,
Magee lying upon her face, a terrible
gunshot wound in her breast her cloak
drawn partly on and her hat lying near

cold, with wound tn her back. Under
the bed was double barrel shotgun, both
chambers empty. Passing TO the door at
the foot of the stairs the party found il
fastened with foreign lock. They
mounted the stairs, and in the nearest
room stretched upon a bed with an empty
morphine bottle at his side, lay the mute
author Of the awful tragedy. The imme-
diate circumstances incident to the TRACE
dy cannot be known, as the eye witnesses
are both silent in DEATH but the belief is
general that it was the work of Magee's
evil passions, which had more than once
before threatened some domestic calamity
