Hon, James Bell Kills Himself.

Topeka, kas., Oct. 12.-Hon.
James Bell, one of the pioneers of
Rice county, and former owner of
most of the site of the town of Ly-
ons, committed suicide yesterday.
About noon he was shaved, and after
telling his family that he was going
to write some letters and then take
nap, from which he did not want
to be disturbed, went upstairs.
Nothing was seen or heard OF him
until 6 o'clock, when he was found
unconscious, with an empty lauda-
mum bottle by his side. He had
changed his clothes for his best suit
thus indicating his deliberate plan,
which was successfully carried out

an abundant AID elegant supper, and
after that spent the evening in social en-.

surprise at such sudden influx of Wis

he ascertaIned the object OF their
call.
Judging from what the young folks
say, the surprise party given TO David
Galusha, and that to Myron Harrington,
last week lacked nothing to render each

quite a number of sleepy looking boys

concluded they must have sayed up

been operated by the New York, Rutland
& Montreal railway company for a
couple of years past, has been in a state
Of practical dsuse, that is, the leased
rolling stock was replevined and taken
away, a part of the equipment sold at
Sherff's sale, and the running of trains
discontinued. Meantime the general
offices of the n. Y. r. q NJ. were main.
tanned here and the officials of that cor
porati0n remained in possession. The
affairs of that line, as far as the public
is concerned, are in so mixed con-

as to the, legal status Of either party,

end of the line, being forcibly stopped

And the matter remains in suspense in
this State. We learn that an application
in Vermont has been made to place the
line here also in receivers hands.
What the outcome will be we have no
means of knowing. but in the interest Of
the public as well as for the repu alton
of the line itself we hope some arrange
ment will be Effected soon.
1t is not true, as stated in the Troy
dailies, that the Bennington & Rutland
