A LITTLE SCHOOL BOYS DEATH. Forced to Chew Pepper by His Teach A Cold Results Which Ends 1n
 
Believed to Have Been a Case eff Sui-

eide.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Dr. William Froth- ingham, one of the best known physicians in the upper part of the city, was killed at 8 o'clock this morning by the discharge of a pistol in his own hands. He was dead when found by his family. The doctors death, at first reported to have been a case of suicide and afterward stated to have been accidental is now thought to have been intentional. It is true that the doctor was cleaning his pis- tol when the shot was fired, but the fact that several letters addressed to his wife and friends and sealed were found in his desk throws some doubt upon the theory of acci- dent. On the other hand the pistol was held at arms length when discharged and the ball penetrated the eye, passing through one of the glasses of the spectacles. It is considered singular that if he aimed at his eye he should not have removed bis glasses and placed the weapon nearer There was no known cause for suicide.
 Dr. Frothingham was Q surgeon in the Federal army during the war. He wes once professor in the College of Physicians and Surgeons in this city and was 8 member of many American and foreign societies. He occupied handsome house at One Hundred and Fifty-seventh street and St. Nicholas av- enue and had very extensive and lucrative practice. It was Dr. Frothingham whose skill restored Charles O'Conor to health after hope had been abandoned by everyone else. He was married and leaves family of grown children

Personal.

Mir c. E. Granniss, travelling agent for Ed. P. & B. R. Merwin, returned yesterday after noon from business trip of about two months duration, during which he made a tour in the Northwest, West and South. He was present at the opening of the New Or leans exposition few days ago and was the recipient of many courtesies from members of the New Orleans Continentals, who visited in this city two years ago last summer.
 J. J. Jones, the champion rifle shot, who is at the American Theater this week, was married on the stage of this theater to Miss Lottie Blanchard on March 18th, 1878. This was novel performance that was not on the programme of the evening, but the cere- mony was attentively watched by the large audience present that evening. The audi ence that had been almost breathlessly still during the marriage commenced a loud ap- plause when the ceremony was finished The union thus formed has been very hap py one, as Mrs. Jones assisted her husband in giving his wonderful exhibitions and learned to make several difficult rife shots. Those who have not previously heard of her death will regret to learn that she died in October, at Beachmont, Mass. She endeared herself to her many friends on account of her loving and generous disposition.

 WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The Star this evening says that a Democratic member of the next House who had sent circulars to all the Democratic members asking if they were committed to the organization of. the House has received replies from 134 members. These replies are all to the effect that they do not intend to commit themselves to any candidate until they have reached Washing ton and looked over the field. From this it is inferred that the Democrats are going to be very careful in the selection of new off, cials and that considerations of locality will enter largely into the selections. For the speakership it is admitted on all sides that Carlisle will have no opposition in caucus and of course will be elected. For the po- not so peaceful and it begins to look as though Mir.

Besides this, which, if true, must be disquieting to the Ohio candidate, two new candidates have suddenly put in an appearance They are W. w. Wheaton of Detroit, who claims to have the solid en- dorsement of the Michigan delegation, and Mir. Higgins, the appointment clerk of the Treasury department. For doorkeeper Sam Donaldson, of Tennessee, and John Trainor, of New York, are the two candidates men toned most confidently by their friends. MT. Donaldson has been making an active can vass and will, it is understood, draw strong support from the southern and western members. MT. Trainor has many friends in the East. Congressman McAdoo, of New Jersey, says the position of doorkeeper should go to the East and therefore he favors Mir. Trainor. New York, he said, always had the Demo cratic delegation from any State since the Forty fourth Congress, but never since has had an elective office in the House. This year she New York delegation is a unit for MT. Trainor and New Jersey and Massachu setts have practically agreed to follow New York in this matter. So far no formidable opposition to the reelection of General Clark of Missouri as clerk of the House has been announced

For some time the greatest excitement prevailed in the neighborhood and an extra squad of police was summoned to the scene to keep back the crowd. At first the widest rumors were eff culated, the loss of life being placed at twelve or fifteen, but after the debris had been cleared away it was found that the only per son killed was woman named Mary Kohn, who was crushed to death while picking up wood in front of the building. Five work men named William Ritchie, John Bashup, Joseph Barkue, Antonio Mamuela and Joseph Chapman were seriously injured and were re- moved to St. Vincent's hospital.
