THE SUICIDE OF A FRAlL ONE.


The White sewing machine j. without a
local representative, for the manager, j. NJ.
Brown, has vacated the position of manager.
With his going hangs tale Dolle Arm
strong and Matte Jones, two young girls
whose employment has been in the hotels of
this city, went with him, The girls were
last IN employ at the Scott house, but were
bounced from there OH account OF their
flirting" etc Monday and Tuesday nights
the three, Brown and the girls, put up at
Neumeyers hotel, and Wednesday night
they left the city. Friday evening they re
turned and appeared ut the Scott house,
where Brown claimed he had married the
Armstrong girl. The other girl acted in the
role of a companion to the pair and stated
that they lived as III IN and wife while here
in the city, and at ST Louis or some other
"St." the pair were married. Mr.. scott told
Brown what the results of his action would
be and the fellow nearly tainted away. He
claimed he did not know he was doing any
thing Illegal, and when this interview ended
the couple left by IA back street for the Broad
way depot, and went TO Omaha, where il is
supposed they now are.
Brown was married about three years ago
10 daughter of j. A. Sylvester, most
worthy gentleman who lives about two ana
q half miles from the city. and this marriage
has never been annullcd. The family Of
Mrs. Brown No. are seeking for the rccre
ant husband, and IN the search the police
force is also engaged. Should he he caught
which now seems more than probable, he
will answer to the charge of bigamy-so say
the family. Brown came here from Allan
tic, Ia, about September |, aud it is said by
the relatives of the wife that charges of
forgery and selling mortgagcd stock are
lodged against him and he would have been
arrested on these charges if his whereabouts
had been ascertained. When Brown and his
wife arrived here they We're in destitute cir
cumstances-for he did not stand upon the
order of leaving Atlantic--and he took his
now is. In the former place he was agent
is said that company are looking for him on
one of the above charges.
This cscapade is surely not the action of
who have known him while here that he is
crazy, and this is surely the most charitable
view to take of the case. 1t is understood
that Brown explained to his lady companions
that he had not lived with his wife for two
years, and that he had commenced divorce
proceedings. When informed that the mere
commencement of divorce did not warrant
his rcmarrying he seemed greatly shocked.
Brown is known as a very temperate man,
and seemed to attend TO business in a salts
factory manner, the Omaha Office, of which
this was IA branch, having no ntmation that
anything was wrong until Brown diSap-
peared His conduct Is so passing strange as
to be- almost unaccountable, except on the
theory of insanity.

An Heal Sclre-CrOW.

Just now the crow of Leeds, Me-,
saws the Lewiston journal, digs for a
living, and the cornfields are in the ar
raw of rags and jags and junk bottles.
You all know the paraphernaila OF the
chevaux de frse to ward oil the crow.
You all remember the divers windmills
and the wonderful contrivances of the
scarecrow. A man up in Leeds, however,
has the call on all such contrivances.
His name is Lathrop, and he has sick
ened the crow so thoroughly that to-day
he and the crow are not even on speak
ing terms. When planting time comes
Mr. Lathrop mikes his corn up with
delicate solution of coal tar until the
kernels look like licorice cough drops.
He plants this, and 10. it sprouts and
grows thriftily, and no crow touches 1t
twice. Mr. Lathrop sits by the door of
his house ard enjoys himself to see the
crows come in the early spring They
cav over his field gleefully, as II to say
here was corn-lot with no corn trap.
They settle down and dig, and they
swallow a kernel or two. They rarely
swallow three. Something sets them TO
thinking and they drop over on the
other side of the fence and sit down and
even lie down to think. Some OF them
plainly cogitate the great conundrum,
lis life worth living" and it is said
that the woods in that vicinity are sad
with tarred corn that sets uneasily on
the stomach of the crow. They never
come again. A crow may forgive, but
he never forgets, and the remembrance
of coal tar on the stomach is continual
sadness and riotous nightmare forever
and forever

A Voting Machine.

A system of automatically taking and
recording votes at elections has been In
vented and patented by John W. Rhlnes
of ST. Paul Printed tickets are done
away with altogether, each voter record
ing mis- vote by means of machine.
This machine consists of a box IN which q
series of keys are used to print numbers
upon endless slips of paper running upon
rollers. The keys run crosswlse IN rows
on the lid Of the box, each row repre-
senting a candidate, while each key re-
presents one of the competing parties:
The voter raises a cover over the Id OF
the box and presses the keys marked
with the names of the candidates he votes
for and the party TO which he belongs,
by this means printing numbers upon the
slip inside the closed box. He then
closes the lid of the box, covering up
the KEYS. Repeating is impossible with
out detection, as the keys stay down I'M
til the lid of the box is again raised. when
a ratchet releases the keys, leaving them
ready for use again, and at the same mo-
ment striking a gong. 1t would be neces-
sary for the authorities to publish the
whole plan of the arrangement OF the
keys Of the machine, together with the
allotment of the candidates and parties
to the keys, so that all voters may become
acquainted with the arrangement. The
cost is said to be below that Of other
vote recording machines. A company
has been formed to hand e the machine
and will be known as the Rhines Ballot
System Company. Paul Dispatch.

HOLSTERS For the Pacific.

Some years ago an attempt was made
to transplant Holsters from Atlantic to
Pacific waters. A lack of skill and
possibly other causes resulted in a
failure. Preparations are now being
made to renew the experiment. On the
first occasion the consignment consisted
of only twenty-six female Holsters, each
one heavily charged with ripe spawn.
Twenty-one of the number reached San
Francisco alive. but in very feeble con-
dition. These were released outside the
Heads without being given an oppor-
tunity to recover from the effects of
the long transcontinental trip, and, I'M
fortunately, without removing the plugs
placed in their claws to prevent self
mutilation during the transit. They
we're there absolutely defenseless, and
practically without the natural means Of
procuring food. Nothing was ever seen
or heard of them. 1t is intended to send
an entire carload of live Holsters to the
Pacific coast in the shipment which is
now being prepared under the direction
of the United States fish commission. It
will comprise several hundred specimens.
The United States contributes the lob
sters and the car and tubs for their
transportation. California will pay the
expense of transit and the cost Of plant
ing if any of the Holsters arrive here
alive.-San Francisco Bulletin.

THE CITY OF THE DEAD.

They do neither plight nor wed
In the city of the dead,
In the city where they sleep away the hours,
But they lie, while DER them range
Winter blight and summer change,
And hundred happy whisperings of flowers.
No, they neither wed nor plight,
And the day is like the night,
For their vision is of other kind than ours.
They do neither sing nor sigh,
In that burgh of by and by,
Where the streets have grasses growing, cool
and long;
But they rest within their bed,
Leaving all their thoughts unsaid,
Deeming silence better far than sob or song.
No, they neither sigh nor sing,
Though the robin be awning,
Though the leaves of autumn march million
strong
There is only rest and peace
In the City Of Surcease,
From the failings and the wailings 'neath the
sun,
And the wings of the swift years
Beat but gently DER the biers,
Making music to the sleepers, every one.
There is only peace and rest;
But to them it seemeth best
For they lie at ease and know that life is
done.
