A Servant Girl Suicides because She

GkEENsBuRG, Pa, Oct. GA most
peculiar case of suicide occurred here.
Two domestics working at the residence
of Mrs. j. S. Crawford, mutually agreed
to commit suicide for the reason that
neither of them had fashionable clothes.
They visited four different drug stores,
and purchased in all 40 cents worth of
laudanum. 1t was decided to take the
deadly drug that evening. Whea the
latter left Miss Lloyd it was understood
that the act would not be committed nm
til the next evening. To Miss Gaiyin,s
surprise Miss Lloyd was found dead in
bed in the morning. She was about 20
years of age. Miss Calvin told the story
of the compact, but says she will NOT
follow her compan ion.

sideration. He will ask the legislature
to drain a large pond which now exists
about n mile from Decatur, Ala, and
IL the pond can not be drained he prays
that the town be destroyed. If these

The Electric Light Companys Artesian well.
The above cut was engraved from a photograph taken a few
hours after the well was completed. 1t conveys a good idea of the
original, and also of the other great we'll which supplies Yankton
with an abundance of the best water for all purposes.
It'll believed that in these wells, which can be easily secured at
comparatively light cost, Yankton has a resource that will build up
here a great Manufacturing centre. Already are there indications Of
growth in her Manufacturing interests, and the signs are proptious
for the future.
1t is further believed that the location of Yankton in the midst
of the most fertile and most healthful section of the great Northwest,
must build up here some of the leading Educational Institutions of
the country. Already a grand start has been made in this direction
and Yankton College is rapidly going to the front. Our public schools
are among the very best and are attracting wide spread interest. In
the growth of Manufacturing and increase of educational institutions
Yankton is bound to make a prosperous and healthful growth.
