sHUFFLED OFF.
OSCAR BERLIN.

Oscar Berlin, native of Sweden, was
found dead in his bed at O'Clock this
morning, at his residence on Sixth avenue
near the line of intersection between
Moline and Rock Island. His wife made
the discovery on awakening this morning.
His death resulted from taking an over
dose of morphine, as bottle containing
that poisonous drug was found in his
bed. Liquor was the cause of his suicide.
He had for several years past been consid.
erably addicted to its use and when under
influence of liquor would make frequent
threats of taking his own life, but his
wife paid no attention to them. For the
last two months he had led sober life,
and had expressed a determination to
never drink again. He was at work yes,
terday at the Deere & Msnsur Corn Plants
er works at his trade as moulder as usual,
and felt in good spirits, but he took to
drinking again last evening and came
home late in the night very drunk, and
carried out his threat so often made with
the results as above stated. The
domestic relations of Mr.. and Mrs. Berlin
were happy as the neighbors all testify.
Mr.. Berlin was 80 years old last Decem-
Der. He moved to Rock Island from
