AnornlR SUICIDE.
An Unfortunate Woman or the Town
Takes her Life.


II is our sad duty to chronicle an
other suicide this morning. Last even
ing q woman known among her friends
as Trixey, an inmate If Mrs. Mills'
house, ON Also street, committed suicide
by shooting herself with double-bar-
relied Dcrringer. There was tive wounds,
one close to the top Of che ear. which
looks like . knife wound, and just
above II bullet wound. which caused
her death. The woman had been out
riding in the afternoon, and returned to
Mrs. Mills about quarter to eight, ap-
parently in good health and spirits.
Two Of the women Of the house were
with her in the room after her return.
At about o'clock DR.. Kirkpatrick, who
lives in the neighborhood, was rsturning
home, and was met by messenger and
told of the shooting. On his arrival
at the house the woman was dead. The
woman, Mrs. Mills says, was resident
Of her house since last Thursday week.
Two notes were left, one evidently not
finished, giving directions in regard to
the disposal Of her things. 1t is as
follows:
"Dear Annay and Ruba PLEASE see
that my trunks and everything have
got 10 addressed 10 my folks. Send
them to Fountainne."
The other note was finished and reads:
DEAR ASsA:--Plesse see that my
trunk and everything have got is sent
to Emerson, Iowa, Miller county. Bury
mo in paupsr's grave. Address every
thing to John Trip, Emerson, Miller
county. Iowa, and oblige me, Jennie
Martin. came 10 death by my own
hand. Hoping God will forgive me,
an respectfully yours.
s'MRs. JENNIE MARTIN,
'Of Fountainville, Iowa"
II would appear from the above that
the deceased was . married woman, and
tnat the act was premeditatsd. At the
time Of committing the deed she was
partly undresssd, having but one shoe
aud stocking on. and in order to make
sure work stood in front OF q looking
glass when she fred the fatal shot.
Coroner Nadeau was informed Of the
deed and will hold an inquest ON the
body this morning, at eleven, ct Ponat
Z Orrs undertaking rooms. to which
place the body was removed last night.
The woman had husband who lives
Howard, Nebraska, and who is named
R. B. Martin. He was, some months
ago, endeavouring to secure o divorce
from his wife.
