AKRON BEACON. Saturday. Jan. 10: Miss Grace
Hathaway. one Of the brightest and most beauti-
tul young ladies in Ken, committed suicide at
IL o'clock this forenoon. by taking a dose of car
bolic acid. She was aged p years and was a
daughter OF Mr.. s. o. Hathaway, Esq. one of the
leading merchants of that place. For years Miss
Hathaway has shown signs of melancholy, and
has often been heard to say that some day she
would go crazy and commit suicide, Of late she
has been watched closely. but when alone this
morning she drank of the acid, from which she
died after two hours of intense suffering. Every
possible thing was done to the life of the
young lady, but all of no avail. Her death has
caused profound sorrow among her friends, of
whom she has many.
The story of her life is indeed pathetic one
Years ago. when Miss Hathaway was but a girl,
her mother became insane and was taken from
the home and placed in an asylum, where she re-
malned to the time of her death. The death of
the mother was a severe blow for the young girl,
who soon became melancholy and was fearful
that she, too. should lose her mind and be COM
pelied to serve a part of her life in an asylum
her father did everything in his power to make
the LIE OF his daughter happy one. and until
two months ago Miss Hathaway attended the

Terrible Explosion at Sanborn.

SANBoRN, N. D., Nov 3.-A frightful
boiler explosion occurred four miles west
of Sanborn, at II o'clock this morning.
The engine belonged to S. Thompson's
threshing outfit. Ed. Thompson, engi-
neer, was blown five rods by the force of
the explosion, and wnen picked up, was
found horribly mangled, his left eye hav.
ing been blown out, his arms broken and
legs crushed. He is living, but the
chances for recovery are slim. Albert
Thompson, feeder, had his right arm
blown off and was otherwise injured. 1t
is doubtful if he can live. Ed. Swartant,
fireman. was badly scalded. Full ex-
tent of his injuries are not known. At
the time of the explosion the machine
was idle and the crew were lounging
around the engine.

Mateos, the representative Of Jesus Ase-

tlon of corn from The United States for

In addition to the drought the prospect
of a crop in that part of the republic is
utterly ruined ly the present heavy
frosts. There has been much feeling
aroused among the citizens of the
famine district over the action of the
government officials in the city of Mex
leo in assisting to raise several hundred
thousand dollars for the relief of the
Spanish flood sufferers while their own
condition is unnoticed.

reported, giving Wheeler, republican,
134S5; Boies, democrat, 12O8l. Boies'
plurality two years ago was 5,438. At

not be able to overcome this plurality.

aud when reports from those precincts
come in, gain may be more rapid. The
democrats are claiming the governor, but
the republicans are still confident that
the country towns will help it out. The
rest of the republican ticket, it is be-
ieyed, is elected, as Wheeler is running
behind his ticket in almost every pre-

Flowers gains on decreased vote were
ahead of Hills. WatertQwn's four wards,
show gain Of 500 for Flower The vote
in this city to-day was very light. It
had been expected that out of registra-
tion of 26l, ,532, at least 100000 ballots
would be polled, but only about 100000
persons voted. In the Hill. Miller cam
paign, more than 261,000 votes we're cast.
Comparatively, Flower ran as we'll as
Governor Hill whose plurality was &c.
600, and who was elected by 10000.
Flower will take to Harlem river $4,000
plurality. 1t is doubtful if Fassett will
bring down $4,000 to meetit. Democrats
are gaining assemblymen in the state
Sheehan is not doing as we'll as Flower
but his election is assured.
The falling off of vote in counties
north of Harlem river seems to show it's
due to operation of the ballot and regis
tration laws under which the first general
election is held in the state and seems to
indicate that the purchase of votes un-
der these laws have come to standstill.
The democrats carried both congression-
al districts, tenth and Twelfth. Lettle, of
the latter district (Flower's) was elected
and Cochran being reelected from the
tenth. The list of senators elected
shows that Tammany carried all sena-
torial distaicts except the eighth, which
was carried by the republicans. In the
assembly the Tammany democracy made
almost a clear sweep of the city the re-
publicans gaining one district, seventh.
The Tammany candidate for the judici-
ary were elected by large majorities and
board of alderman was swept by Tam
many Hall as completely as in it's candi-
dates for assembly. 1t was asserted in
republican quarters that they had not
forgotten Tweed's celebrated message,
"what majority do you want?"
