They re:baptize those who come to them
from the Baptist Church. They seem to
make a sort of 'straddle" on Calvinism,
preaching that doctrine in way that
would have pleased Jonathan Edwards
but at the same time, they preach free

teachings of their elders, they are as
devout as the best sectarians in the land.
They do not preach that men should have

DALLAS, TEX, Dec. l2.-This forenoon
| the report spread that Mai James A
! Mckee, ox-United States marshal OF the
! Northern district OF Texas, had com.
mltted suicide by cutting his throat, his
residence, No. 500 Browder street. Great
excitement followed thereupon.
/ A GAZETTE reporter, satisfying himself
that the report was true, repaired TO the
residence Of the deceased. He was met
at the door by Mr.. James A. Mckee, Jr.,
J son Of the deceased, who stated that his
father took his own life by cutting his
! throat with a pocket-knlfe before he arose
this morning.
About ten weeks ago he was lseized
with the dengue, and had been confined
to his bed until few days ago, when he
got up and seemed TO be rapidly recover
ing his strength. On yesterday he went
down town aud attended 20 some bust
ness, and the family were reioiccd to see
him ont once more, aud were preparing
10 send him off for his health.
just before O'Clock this morning Mr..
II. w Mckee, eldest son of the deceased,
who is here on visit from Colorado,
went into his fathers room (he has slept
alone since his illness) TO see what he
wanted for breakfast, and a horrifying
sight met his eyes. There lay his father
in an unconscious condition with his life's
blood all over the bed and floor and a
pocket-knife by his side.
Mr.. Mckee alarmed the family and sent
for Doctors Pace and Thompson. Maj
Mckee was too far gone TO recognize or
speak to any OF the family, and expired
In very few minutes after he was dis
covered.
An examination of the wound showed
that he had applied the knife ON the right
side OF the neck, severing both the jugular
vein and carotid artery, and according to
the physicians, death must have super.
yeDed within fifteen minutes thereafter
The dengue is ascribed by the physi-
clans as the cause of Maj. Mckee taking
his own life. lie had that malady IN its
very worst form, and IL not only cnfee-
bled his body but impaired his mind and
left him prey to melancholy.
Maj Mckee was about lfty-seven
years Of age and an old Texan. He lived
an honorable, upright life and held many
Offices of public trust, and was esteemed
by all persons who take stock in true
manhood. His heart-broken widow and
family have the sincere
sympathy Of the entire community in this
their hour Of trial.
The funeral will take place from the
family residence at . pm. tomorrow, and
proceed to Trinity cemetery.
