versa.ion was carried on between these

ever. In fact, the voices Of the speaker

Avenged.

Avenged.
Cincinnati Gazette: Early in the
spring a. great sensation was caused in
Jamestown, Ohio, by the suicide of
Miss Flo Johnston, a handsome young
lady of good family, who killed herself
with an old army musket, firing the
load into her head. The same day she
had been to GAINESVILLE, about six miles
from Jamestown, and had called on a
young man named James Zeiner, with
whom she had been keeping company
for some time, and demanded that he
make COOK his promise to marry her,
and on Zeiner refusing she drew re-
volver aud fired at him, the shot not
taking effect. The young man wrestled
with her and secured the weapon and
persuaded her to 60 home. On the
way to her fathers house she passed q
pond, and was evidently contemplating
drowning herself, but was prevented by
the appearance of some men; but soon
after reaching home she accomplished
her object, living several hours after
shooting herself, and sending for
Zeiner, who refused to come to her.
Excitement over the affair was intense.
and the girl having many friends in the
vicinity, Zeiner concluded to 90 else
where for while. Threats were made
that he would be put out of the way if
he ever showed up again in the village.
On Tuesday evening he paid visit
to the village, and between 8 and 9
O'Clock went to the Cummings Hotel.
Going into the parlor, he sat down on
the sofa with Miss Cummings and
another young lady, and at about
9:15 some person on the outside, who
had been watching Zeiner's move
ments, discharged both barrels of
shotgun, loaded with heavy slugs,
through the window, the charges
striking him between the waist and
neck, filling his body full of slugs, one
or two of them striking him in the
head. His death was instant. The
body rolled from the sofa, and the
floor Of the room was covered with
blood. The screams of the girls who
were with him aroused the people in
the neighborhood, and soon the
majority of the inhabitants of the viii
lage were gathered around the house.
Word was sent to jamestown, where
the parents, brothers and sisters of
Zeiner reside, and the father, who is
an undertaken, made preparations for
conveying the body home to his house.
from where the funeral will take place,
inferno mt to be in the jamestown
Cemetery, the same place where the re-
mains Of his victim, the unfortunate
Flora Johnston, are laid.
There is great mystery about the
affair, and no person has any idea who
tho person was who did the shooting.

Exaggoration.


The number of white lies'' told by
those who are supposed to be truthful
is remarkable. They simply excuse
themselves on the ground of didn't
think.
Cit is amusing to see some people try
to tell the truth. They give a slight
cough and clear their thoats. Then
they draw long breath, there is
twinkle in the eyes, their cheeks color
and they stammer because they are
afraid they will get everything correct.
Old offenders are not easily caught.
indeed, some become insensible to the
difference between truth and falseh0od,
having told q false one, that they be-
lieve the false account to be the true
one and the true one the false one.

The following story is told as an &C
tual fact, and it is warranted not to be
exaggerated: =.
An old minister. who was noted for
exaggeration at all times and in every
conceivable manner, was one day
called to account by his little flock. A
committee appointed and properly Gre
dentialed waited upon the man OF I'M
guided and unchecked amplhying abil-
ity to solicit from him promise to
ever after be more watchful of his
weakness in that one respect. In ans
wer, denoting true penitence for the
wrong already committed, he said: Il

over that bad habit. ''-Ioleds Blade.
