Life by Dose of Arsenic.

Life by Dose of Arsenic.
Special to the Gazette.
TERRELL, KAUFMAN COUNTY, TEX, Sept
29.-The sad affair of yesterday terminated
at $3.50 O'Clock this morning in the death of
Miss Cora link. The arsenic she took IS
terday afternoon was thoroughly into her
system before the doctors were called.
Everything was done that could be done,
but no relief came. She gives as her
reason for the rash act that certain young
man refused to marry her. The affair has
created considerable comment and more
than one young mans name has been men
toned in connection with the affair Pa
pers and notes have been sought after that
may give further details, and are under
stood to be in the hands of a party in the
city. Miss link bought the arsenic yester-
day, and on the way home told young
lady acquaintance that she was going to
kill herself. She had also told other per-
sons of her intention. She was buried at
College Mound cemetery this evening.

Sauer stated that he was socialist and 4
believer in the teachings of Herr Most.
He thought Most to be man actuated by Z

three doctors for months, but none benefited
me in the least They told me that 1 had a
fever, also that my spleen was the seat of my
disease, and again that my trouble was all in
my bladder. Finally as the result of an oper-
alton, suffered untold agonies Then 1 took
medicine of DR.. Wong, and he got me to my
usual weight and strength in two months,
though my friends considered l was likely to
die any day for the first week that l was in the
hands of Dr. Wong, who says that my disease
was blood poisoning, which was produced by

A bird on returning from a long fight
takes first a long drink, then eats q
hearty meal, next combs down its
feathers with its bill and then hops
about with the other birds as though
nothing remarkable had happened.
On its liberation it first circles in wide
sweeps, as though searching for land
mark, before starting homeward If q
bird has once become familiar with a
land mark hundreds of miles from
home 1T will head directly for that be-
fore searching for the next one. Great
cities often puzzle it in its homeward
flight, and it will sometimes circle over
one for hours before proceeding on its
course.

tention to details of this kind at the
beginning is the best kind of insurance
against bird diseases in the flock YOU
hope to own. With the loft dry and
free from draughts, no artificial heat
IN winter is required. Indeed it should
be avoided.
Lofts can below-priced or expensive,
according to taste. A simple enclos-
ure could bemade almost without ex-
pense by any clever boy oryoungman
of mechanical skill. Shelves devided
into compartments, should be placed
along the walls for future nesting, and
such compartment should have one
hall OF its front enclosed, for homing
pigeons when nesting appreciate pri-

forms can be placed about the loft as
the owner pleases. Some, of course,
are necessary.
With wholesome food, plenty OF
drinking and bathing water, and q

birds will thrive, and daily open air ex-
