The news of the suicide of Mrs. Calvin Tiffany, of South Manchester, was shock to many in Stafford Springs who had met her during visits made while her step-son, Dr. T. c. Tiffany, now of Willimantic, resided here. The Manchester Herald says: Mrs. Tiffany has been suffering from melancholia at intervals for some time. This fact was not generally known, for in her intercourse with her neighbors and friends, Mrs. Tiffany impressed them as being woman of unusual cheerfulness and vivacity." For few days before the d tragedy she had seemed unusually de- pressed, and was closely watched by her husband and step children, as advised by one of the latter, who is a physician. The Herald account says:
 "About half-past seven Tuesday even. ing Mir. Tiffany had gone to his stole, and Dr. Tiffany and his sister, Miss Della Tiffany, were sitting by Mrs. Tiffany's b.dside. At that moment, with an insane cunning, she planned her death. She ask. ell the doctor to bring her some fresh wa t..r from the we'll. She then remarked to Miss Tiffany on the closeness of the room and asked her to open the outside door for & few minutes, and added: You med breath of fresh air, too You had bitter step outside for minute.' Miss Tiffany unsuspectingly followed her sug. gstion. The instant she was left alone an insane strength came to her limbs She sprang from her bed and ran up stairs to the room occupied by MT. Tiffany's as s;stant, who boards with them. There she secured 8 keen-edged razor, and lying down on the floor she drew 1t across hel throat with savage fierceness. She made four gashes, the last penetrating clear te t..e vertebr@. Miss Tiffany was gone but minute, but when she returned to the rom she was astonished to find the bed ce lpty. She called to her brother, and as s on as he learned the situation he feared t @ worst. With all possible haste g light was procured and the house was s arched. They found her in the upper rom, lying in pool of blood, dead. The terrible work of the razor had been al most instantly fatal. Mrs. Tiffany killed hsrseh on the tenth anniversary of hel marriage. She was MT. Tiffany's secone wife, and married him just before they came to South Manchester. Their lift had been one of exceptional harmony and no serious trouble of any kind hae during the ten years disturbed the sereni ty of her life. She had, however, yea . previous to her marriage, been seriously il, and her physical weakness affected her brain, so that at one time she wal carefully watched, for fear that she nigh do violence to herself. The illness finally yielded to treatment, and left her in ex eellent health. The only approach to it sxcept this last attack, has been wher she has been slightly III or indisposed when she would suffer from melancholia Mrs. Tiffany's death vii l.e serious loss to the Center Congrega tional church, of which she was an active member. She was also member of tht Christian Endeavor Society. She Was active in the benevolent work of ths church, and was also liberal with private aid to the poor.n

The escape of John Quinn from Tol- land jail last Wednesday evening was a particularly exasperating affair. Quinn is bad case, notoriously so, and had just been sentenced to spend five years in state prison for an outrage committed on two little girls near Talcottville. The proper place for him was in one of the secure cells provided for prisoners, but he was allowed to be with the others in the outside corridor. Jailor Kibbe was away, and the man assistant went to the jail to get dish of potatoes, which according to the usual custom had been given to the prisoners to pare. As the man opened the door and stopped for the dish Quinn, who was some distance from the door, sprang quickly to and through it, knock ing the man over in his flight. Passing through the kitchen Mrs. Kibbe pluckily grasped him and held held on for 8 time, screaming for help. Quinn finally broke away from her, throwing her violently down, but fortunately with no injury. He then ran, but was hotly pursued, and at one time was caught hold of by young Kurau, son of the late jailor, who was, however, no match in size or strength for Quinn, and was disposed of by savage blow. Quinn's first course was toward Wilmington depot, but he later headed for Rockville and outfooted all pursuers. Evidences of his continued presence in the vicinity of Rockville have been appar- ent, also that friends were assisting him in concealment. A reward of $100 Is offered for his capture. Last Saturday afternoon James Divine, an elderly man
 was at work in Daleyville, an Ellington suburb of Rockville, cutting brush by the side of the road. A young man appeared about o'clock, coming out of the woods
 and inquired the time. He told Divine his name was James Sullivan, that he lived in the city, and was going to work in the Began mill when it started up, MT
 Divine had his coat and vest off, and they 1 were on the ground some little distance
 from where he was at work. He went tx
 the place, took his watch from his yes pocket, and gave the information asked for. When MT. Divine went to get hil 1 vest and coat after the fellow had gone he was astonished to find that his watcf had disappeared. There Is no doubt tha; | 1t was Quinn, and that he stole the watch
 as the fellow answered to Quinn's descrip tion, and gave the same name and tolt the same story that he did in Manchester
 before his arrest for rape. He has since been seen by others, the last time neal Hop River. To one person he showed , l long dirk, threatening to use it on an, one who attempted his capture.

Holland County Leader: The curious spectacle of the postmaster of post of flee of the size of that at Holland inspect ing large second-class post-office like that at Rockville was witnessed yester- day morning when Postmaster Satteriee of Holland inspected the Rockville office in accordance with special orders from the postmaster general. The instructions come In the shape of circular letter, the same as issued to the postmaster of every county seat In the country. requesting him to inspect all the post offices in his county and report their condition on blanks as provided. The department is without funds to pay any necessary ex- pense, and the inspection division of the department Is too fully occupied with other work to undertake this large job. There are forty two post offices in this county, and a thorough inspection of each will necessarily be task of considerable magnitude. Postmaster Satterlee has the matter under consideration, and will reach 8 decision ere long as to whether he can undertake the work. He now thinks that he cannot spare the time nor afford the expense of hiring teams to visit each post-ofice in the county. It would cost $1O0 for carriage hire. He will probably inspect the Vernon and Talcottville of- fees, and few others near by, and stop there unless the department should in struct him that mailing the circulars to the other offices in the county and having the postmasters themselves fill out the blanks will be satisfactory.
