"Didn'f Know ID was Loaded. =

At Elmira, N. V, on Monday even
ing, as Mr.. and Mrs. Fl. w. Schaschke,
who had been married only six months,
were retiring for the night, he took up
an old Scotch revolver, which he sup
posed was empty, and playfully snapped
it at his wife. There was an unexpect-
ed discharge, aud the bullet pierced her
abdomen. She died on Wednesday.
The husband, who has been clerk in
a leading dry goods house, is frantic
with grief, and would have ended his
own life had he not been placed under
guard. The accident seems worse from
the fact that when he took up the pistol
his wife screamed, and besought him to
put it away, so frightened was she at
the mere sight of the weapon.

John Klinger, a wealthy farmer OF
Rush township, near Ringgold, Pa,
has always been regarded by his friends
rs a severe and harsh old man, but no
one ever gave him credit for as stony a
heart as the tragedy of the past few days
proves him to have had. His daughter
Hetty, then aged eighteen years, was
two years ago clandesuinely married to
Joseph Maurer, a farm hand, and it end
ed in both being driven from the young
wife's home. Maurer being unable to
find work went to Canada, where he
took charge of squad of laborers on
new railroad works. Hetty. the young
wife, remained in the valley working
for the sustenance of herself and child,
assisted by the small remittances which
her husband was able to send her.
Early in the fall these ceased, and soon
after she received n letter from Montreal
informing her that her husband was
dead. Sunday she determined to seek
forgiveness of her father, and ask him
TO at least let her work as servant in
the home of her childhood. In spite OF
her tears and those of a younger sister
she was spurned from the door, and
wandered aimlessly down tie road,
bearing her child in her arms and with
a binding wind drifting the loose fallen
sn ow about her. Two miles from her
fathers house and mile from the near
est neighbor she fell exhausted, and lay
all night. She had tried to save the
babe by wrapping it in her thin wooden
shawl, but it, too, had succumbed to the
terrible cold, and side by side they
were found Monday morning, cold and
stiff in death.

The Supreme Court of the United
States on Monday decided that the
taxes imposed on drummers or COM
mercial travellers by certain States are
unconstitutional. The case In point
was that Of Walling vs.. the State Of
Michigan. Walling was whiskey
drummer from Chicago, and the State
Of Michigan wanted to tax him $500 for
selling his goods in her borders, the
revised statutes of that State imposing
such an assessment on all who sell
goods by sample from other States.
walling took his case to the Supreme
Court of Michigan. and was directed to
pay the tax. He appealed, and the
Uuited States Supreme Court holds that
only Congress, by an Interstate COM
merce law, can authorize drummers'
tax such as was imposed by Michigan,
and which is on the statutes Of num-
Der of States. This decision will, 1t is
believed. nullify the drummers' taxes
In all States.
