A GIRLS MISFORTUNE.
Betrayed and Deserted, she Tries to
End Her Life.

EnO Her Llfes
Last night a couple of boys encoun-
tered on the street a young girl who
seemed to be in pain.
She informed them that she had taken
chloroform, and they escorted her to a
physicians office, where she was relieved
of the drug.
The girl is but II years old, and stated
that she had been betrayed by young
man, whose name she gave.
Her mother is dead, and out of con-
sideration for her fathers and sister
feelings her name is withheld from pub
licatiOn.

Peerless lodge, No 26l, A. 0. Z. W., gave
DR.. j NJ. Mnick surprise last evening
which he had no hint of until the moment
arrived. In view of the fact that Dr. NJ.
was going to leave and that he had been
an efficient member 27l since its organi-
cation, having been master workman, the
lodge concluded to show their esteem OF
him as a brother. Accordingly reception
was planned for him last evening after
lodge, but owing to the inclement weather
not as many were present as were ex-
pected.
The boys had procured an elegant gold
headed cane, and had the following in
scription engraved on it: Present
ed to DR.. J. NJ Minick, P. NJ. W.,
nv the members of Peerless lodge, No 81
A. o. U. w, March %, 1891" The presen-
tation was made by j. D. Dorsey and was
a complete surprise to the worthy doctor,
but he thanked the donors in few heart
felt words for their appreciation and kind
ness
After the presentation ceremonies the
members repaired to the old court room
where short time was spent in dancing.
A nigh FIVE party was also organized and a
social time was had by all who were
present.

for fear there will be repetitions. About a

tho Frisco trains. The proud mother re-
Gently wrote the officials of the company
that she had named the daughter "Frisco"
and suggested it would be the handsome
thing for the company TO present the
mother with a pass over the road The
official even went further than the request
and promised transportation for Frisco
as long as she remains miss. Railroad
men are nervous, bashful set as a rule,
and those on this particular line are ap-
prehensive that this pass business may

An EAGLE representative met one of the
Jurors in the Adams trial before the United
States district court, late Tuesday night.
He said that it was impossible for him TO
sleep; that he had gone to bed twice,
but he was haunted with an image and
his closed eyes would IN no wise induce
the sleep that is the balm TO hurt minds.
It was now after midnight and he was as
wideawske as an owl. He said he had
listened to the testimony in the case care
fully and closely and had weighed the
whole in his mind in an impartial and
conscientious way, but he could make
nothing out OF it, but that it was
murder and he had returned that verdict
with the remainder OF the jury. Still he
said every time he closed his eyes, 10
sleep. he would see the image of Adams
swinging under a scaffold and his wife
pleading to him to release him. He had
tried to get rid of the idea, but it would
not dawn" He said he wished he had
never seen or heard of a jury.

A LARGE INVESTOR.

w. H. Wilson, capitalist of Arcade, n.
Y, and who has large property interests
in and about the city, yesterday evening
closed deal in which he purchased the
two lots and property opposite the opera
house on the northeast corner of Topeka
and William for $4,000. Mr.. Wilson has
been in the city for the past few days look
ing after his many property interests. and
incidentally casting about for any safe in
vestments that might be in view. Besides
the lots referred to he has bought 600 acres
of farming land in the surrounding coun-
try since he has been here. He is a coD-
sentative man of means and is not looking
for the boom, but for the safe investment,
and he saw plainly that such investments
are numerous in this city, with its many
advantages He is well satisfied with all
of his interests ere, and that is why he is
buying more property in this locality.
