Missonla.
MrssouLA, July 90 Special. --Mrs. Pat.
rick McCue, who, with her husband, has for
several months past kept lodging house in
this city, died to-day from an overdose OF
chloral hydrate. This morning, about IL
O'Clock, she went to the room Of James
Lewis, one of the dodgers, and throwing
herself on the bed, complained of being
vey sick, and asking him to get her somo
"chloria hydia," she spelling the name
that way on his book. He said that he
could not get it without a PHYSICIANS pre-
scription. Then she asked him to go to q
Chinaman's and get some opium. This he
refused to do. She then went to
his bureau drawer for n
revolver he had been in the habit Of keep
ing there. She failed to get this. Lewis
at this juncture went for her husband and
told him his wife was sick. The husband
sent Lewis after Il doctor. The physician
called and prescribed chloral hydrate in
fifteen-grain doses each half hour. Her
husband administered the first dose, and
then left to get her sister. During his alb
sence she either took or was given nearly
all remaining in the two-ounce bottle, and
was unconscious on her husbands return.
Though physician was called, she died in
less than an hour. From evidence before
the coroner's jury it appears that some one
was in her room during the absence of her
husband. The jury adjourned till nine a.
m. tomorrow, Albert Watson, one of the
witnesses, being TOO drunk to testify.

HAZEN S MILL URNED.

L. D. Hazen's steam mill at Miles
pond burned to the ground at $50
Sunday morning. The origin of the
fire is unknown as there had not
been a spark Of fire in the engine
since 5 o'clock the night before The
watchman had been on duty all
night, having just gone home when
the fire was discovered. Happening
as it did Sunday morning when
telegraph and telephone offices were
closed, it was too late when the
news reached St. Johnsbury for a fire
company to go up. The mill and all
its contents were consumed, together
with three fat cars and 100000 feet
of sawed lumber. But for the timely
help of the mill men all of the sawed
lumber, some 100000 feet in all,
would have burned. The loss is
about $4,000. 1t is partly covered
by insurance, there being $500 on
the mill and $4,000 on the lumber.
Mr.. Hazen will rebuild this fall.

THE PRESIDENT IS COMING.

The details of President Harrison's S
trip through Vermont have been so
arranged as to settle it that St.
Johnsbury will receive a call from
him. On Tuesday following the Ben
nington Centennial President Harri-
ron will leave for St. Albans, where,
on the 25th, he will be the guest of
ex-Gov. Smith, who will give a recep-
ton in honor of the chief ma gistrate;
on the morning of the Goth the presi-
dent will leave for St. Johnsbury via
Montpelier, doubtless making short
stop there en- route, to visit the
legislature, which will then be in
special session. At ST. Johnsbury he
will be the guest of Col Franklin
Fairbanks, leaving this place on the
morning of the 9th for Proctor,
where he is to be entertained by the
secretary of war.
A reception will undoubtedly be
given here by our people in honor of
the president. Further information
regarding the details of the welcome
to be accorded him will be announc-
ed later. Suffice it to say now that
this welcome will be a right royal
one, in which every citizen of the
town should participate in one way
or another

CROP REPORTS.

The outlook for crops in Vermont,
Judging from the report for last
week, is very encouraging. At Bel
lows Falls crops, as whole, were
looking as well as the average;
grains have lodged somewhat be-
cause of heavy showers; hay about
three-quarters crop. In the Southern
part of the state generally hay has
been secured in good condition; oats
ready for harvest, with prospects of
fair crop; early potatoes yielding
well.
