Sets Fire to His Clothing.
Especial to THE Won1pl

LANCASTER, Pa, December Q. This
morning the entire town Of Columbia
was startled by a horrible suicide.
Smoke was seen issuing from the whole
sale liquor store Of Jacob w. Stauffer
on Front street, and an alarm Of fire
was sounded. When the firemen ar
rived and the store was opened, Stauf-
fer was found dead in a chair. His
clothing was on fire. The man had
taken his life with q shot gun, which
he loaded very heavily. He placed
the gun across the arm Of chair
with the muzzle against his left breast.
He had fastened a string to the
trigger which he pulled, and the load
entered the body two inches below
the heart, killing him instantly. The
body was burned and blistered in a
horrible manner. The man left a
wooden box by his side and a note,
directing that the box be opened only

the charter TO Lord Baltimore by
Charles / in 1852, and gives the bonn
daries therein described, and shows its
possession by Lord Baltimore and the
jurisdiction exercised over it down to
the Revolution, when Maryland be-
came 4 sovereign State and member
Of the American Union. IT claims the
same bounds for the State as those de-
scribed ii tho charter, and shows that
Virginia recognized. this In her consti-
tuition Of l776. Atthe time 81 and III
Ter the Revolution Maryland claimed
her western boundary under the charter,
and this claim was never waived, yield
ed or compromised, and il maintains
that the line is to the South Branch Of
the Potomac as the farthest source Of
that river.
It then recites the efforts made be-
fore the civil war to settle with vir-
ginia this controversy, and since the
war that similar efforts have been
made to adjust it with West Virginia,
but all endeavors have failed. II then
describes the conflicts Of jurisdiction
and antagonistic claims which have
arisen and the dangers attendant on its
remaining longerunadj and shows
that West Virginia is claiming juris-
diction over and possession Of large
territory belonging to Maryland, and
prays the Supreme Court to establish
the true boundary between the States
and to quiet the possession Of Mary
land in the full enjoyment Of its own
territory.

To the Famous Dukes-Nutf Tragedy in
PennsyIvanfa.
Especial 70 THn wonlD.i

Especial 70 HE WohAD-l
UNIoNTowN, Pa, December 9.-Ai
noon tomorrow Miss Lizzie Mutt will
be married to Samuel J. Krepps, Of
Chicago, . travelling salesman for 4
bat firm IL that city. Nine years ago
the young lady became known because
Of her connection with The sensational
Dukes-Nntt tragedy She was then
twenty-five years old, and among her
suitors was Nicholas Lyman Dukes, a
member Of the State Legislature, to
whom she was reputed to be engaged.
Her father, Captain A. G. Mutt, was
cashier Of the State treasury at Harris
burg, under State Treasurer Bailey.
Near the close of 1892 he received at
Harrisburg letters from Dukes convey
ing charges against his daughter. On
the day before Christmas Captain
Mutt sought Dukes in his room in a
hotel here to demand satisfaction, and
was shot and instantly killed BY Dukes.
A sensational trial followed, in
which Dukes was acquitted, on the
ground Of self defense, at the March
term, 1883. In June following james
Mutt, the eldest brother Of the young
lady, was standing in the doorway Of
the First National Bank, when Dukes
passed, on his way to the post Office.
In flash, young Mutt whipped out-a
revolver and planted five balls in his
fathers slayer, killing him instantly.
The young man was tried in Pitts
burg for the crime, and acquitted on
the plea Of emotional insanity.

According to Aler's History, Darkes-
vile was named after the renowned
General Darke, and was made town
by an act Of the Virginia Legislature
Dec. 7th, 1701, making it 100 years old
last Monday. Quite number Of our
citizens knew this and all day long
great preparations were being made for
4 Jubilee the coming night. Under
the good management Of Messrs. Bry-
arly and Brady, large bonfire was
built at the north end Of town, and was
one Of the most attractive things Of the
occasion. Abont eight o'clock this|w
lighted, and drew quite large crowd.
The village Drum Corps was out in full
force, and after getting everything in
order the procession was formed, which
was about one-haIf mile long (more
Or less.) Everything in our town was
well represented especially our old
maids and bachelors. After encircling
the bonfire, the march through the
town began. Quite q number Of other
houses were Illuminated and the one
most appropriate, was the old Bar
racks" which Is about the Oldest house
in town, and it being illuminated by an
old grease lamp, which had the APP
pearance Of having been the prop
erty Of General Darke's great grand
mother. After marching through town
the procession returned to the residence
Of the oldest citizen, being that Of Hon.
d. +. Pine. After the serenade Of the
drum corps the crowd gave three
cheers for this old and venerable citi-
zen. Dan said he could set them up
but his supply Of Cod 4. O.. &c. was
limited and he was afraid it would not
supply the crowd.
After this the crowd dispersed, and to
awake in the morning to find the sun
had not ceased to rise, and our village
had again entered the race Of another
hundred years. 2.
