jn1 supper. The pRrlor is an adjon-
ing room 70 the kitchen, aud the win
dows were left raised and the door
open, for comiorv sake. On the oen
ter table In the parlor reposed Mrs,
Howland'a pocket book, sontaining
about SIS. Beside IL, also. was pair
OF gold bracelets. The thief
entered while the ladies
were busy in preparing
supper and secured tho purse without
the knowledge of tho inmates az the
houne. The bracelets were not inter
Tered with, nor WAS there anything
else in the room touched. Mr.. How
land arrived, supposedly, Just after
the robbery had been committed, and
the family retired TO seo without the

however,, the empty pocket-bosk was
found on the front portico. 1t was va

In last Saturdays issue we had
occasion to mention the suicide of
J. /. Spainhour in California. The
following letter received by Thomas
McDevitt gives the particulars:
CALICO, CAL, Sept. 2, 1885.
FRIEND TOMMY This morning,
in the official capacity of coroner
Il am Justice of the Peace), | held
an inquest on the body of a man
named j. /. Spainhour, who com
mittcd suicide by shooting himself
through the brain with Smith &
Wcsson pistol (39-calibrc). In
examining his effects | found Il
photograph of you and recognized
it. thought you would like to
hear the circumstances. He had
been sick for few days with n low
stage of typhoid fever, and was
getting on nicely. He arose from
his bed, wrote a note to friend of
his named George Marx leaving
him his effects, and then sat down
on the floor, put the pistol to his
forehead and blew his brains out.
He was of very melancholy
temperament and most assuredlv
derangcd when he killed himself.
His body was dccently buried, and
his untimely ending Of life has
saddencd his friends here.
