The size of the bills of the "Canine Ex-
terminator" are such that no one would
dare to question the zeal which actuates
him in his work, yet, tbe promiscuous
firing of his assistant at stray dog on last
Monday night on Shipley street between
Third and Fourth, made it very unsafe
locality for pedestrians.

Still, as has been stated the greatest d.
plomatic rebuff that Russia has sustained is
the abolishment of the free zone idea and
the marking out of exact territorial limits
between Russian and Afghanistan territory.
BY this arrangement the opportunities FOR
equivocation or misunderstanding viii be
reduced almost to nullity. The trespas-
ser can be readily pointed out and Russia
will be restrained from stealing further ter
ritory unless under overt act of war. She
has thus placed herself in tangible posi-
tion to be held for judgment by the English
government and will be precluded from pre-
sentipg that old excuse, as in the case of the
Murghaab encroachment, of the absence of
any defined boundary lines

Druggists not unfrequently assume a

drugs should be SO isolated from the gener-
al run of medicinal preparations that it
would require some effort to reach

Arsenic, Strychnia, Morphia, Aconite,

picious, sent for DR.. Pulford, and he sent
for Medical Examiner Kendall The efforts
of both physicians failed to resuscitate the
young lady and she died at 6
o'clock Sunday morning in great agony.
About a year ago the suicide lived as
servant at the house of Deacon David john
son in Seymour. She became intimate with
a boarder named William q. Douglass,
man who had wife and family in Norwich,
Conn. He paid her much attention, stating
that he was a widower. The lady was
obliged to leave Mr.. Johnson's and found
work at John Halloway's. She still chung to
Douglass, though she was told that he was
married man. In the summer Doug
lass went to live with his wife
in Norwich. The deceased wrote him
letter which his wife received. She ap-
piled for a divorce on account of this letter
and it was granted in October. Douglass
went back to Seymour and continued his at
ten lions to Miss Pulcipher. On the evening
of November oath the two left Seymour and
came back four days later, when the woman
said they had been married in Bridge
port. She stayed at the Hofloways' and
Douglass went to his boarding place.
On the morning of the Goth of November she
took the stage to Southbury, where she
stayed with her sister until last Wednesday,
when she returned to Seymour and went to
Ansonia to look for Douglass. She found
him and he said he would go to Seymour,
but went to Bridgeport, leaving her
do as best she could. She went
to the Wilbur House. Among her things a
letter was found addressed to Douglass,
which expressed her love for him and for
giveness for his conduct toward her. Med
ical Examiner Kendall rendered verdict of
suicide from the effects of laudanum. The
remains will be taken to Crown Point this
morning by the sister of the deceased. Her
father and mother reside there.
