COMMITTEE.

A very mysterious case OF suicide is
that reported in Toledo, and which
occurred at the Boody house on Satur-
day night. 1t seems the young man.
giving his name as Edwards, and
claiming to come from Buffalo, N. Y,
arrived in the city on Friday last and
drove to the residence OF Rev. Father
Qugley and when engaged in con-
versation with him in his private
parlor, claimed he came to Toledo to
commit murder and by his actions
indicated that Rev. Quigley was the
person on whom he would begin
opertions, but the reverend gentleman
used his eloquent persuasive powers on
him and not only got off alive himself
but made the fellow promise he would
not iniure himself which he had also
threatened to do. Edwards sub
sequently went to the Boody house and
engaged u room. He sent several
orders down to the Office and each
time paid the bell boy quarter for
the service. In the meantime Father
Quigley, becoming nervous over the
affair, sent to police headquarters and
explained his interview with Edwards
and asked to have him looked after.
Chief O'Dwyer went to the Boody and
upon going to the room found the man
dead-haying committed suicide.
He had deliberately burned every
scrap of paper that would indicate who
or what he was. His baggage con-
sisted only of small hand bag in
which were found several bottles of
morphine, opium, laudanum, and
prussic acid, and razor, and few
toilet articles. He had about $50 and
revolver, and one of the rings worn
was marked inside-M. NC.
The remains were kept at the under
takers for several days awaiting identi-
fication, and are now in the city vault.
AS yet no clew has been obtained as to
who or what he was and the case is
one OF very great mystery.

Judge Ingraham, in suit brought to
annul marriage on account Of misrep-
resentation on the part of the wife,
holds that the plaintiff is not entitled
to relief; for If it were admitted that
false representations as to personal
qualities or condition would justify an
annulment of marriage, in almost
every instance in which parties wero
disappointed a case could be made
ON which annulment of marriage
could be asked for. Persons arc bound
to know what they are doing when they
marry, and If they do not they take the
risk and must endure the consequences
A recent similar decision was made in
Maine, where woman asked a divorce
on the ground that her husband was O
drunkard; but 1t was proven that she
knew he was a drunkard when she
married him, and thought she could
reform him. The judge declined tc
grant divorce because he was only
what she knew he was when she mar
ried him.

Wednesday, by the solid 10l Demo-
cratic votes, and the two votes Of

for Palmer, Moore and Cockrell for
Palmer, and Taubenich for Streeter
thus giving Palmer, (D) 103 votes,
Lindlay, (R) 100 votes and Streeter, r,(A)

AT Lima, "a few days ago, mother
awoke in the morning and found her
four-months old babe frozen to death
by her side. The family are reported
as being wretchedlv poor and. have
been living (?) on charity for some time.
They occupy a house which is worse
than many barns and on this night
had neither fire nor sufficient bed
clothing. All this occurs in city
where there is much wealth, where
there are churches supposed to he
working for the saying of souls, who
are, as is usually the case, Offering up
long and loud prayers for the poor and
distressed, and calling on their mem
bers and everybody else for cash to
send to foreign missions, while people
in our own cities die OF cold and starv-
alton. But buying red umbrellas
for little negroes in Africa is probably
to be understood as spreading the
gospel abroad, and it must be done
even though it prevents the spreading
of charity at home.

A Perrysburg correspondent to the
Bee:
'For the past two weeks or more
this town has been thronged with
laborers on the Toledo pipe lines.
These men have tough time of it, no
provision whatever being made for
their board and lodging. Farmers
will not board them. Their houses
are closed against them. A number
OF them have secured boarding here,
but they are compelled to go to and
from their work several miles. The
wages are such that when their board
is paid and the time lost is taken into
account but little or nothing is left.
Contracts, as general thing, on such
work as this provide for the housing,
boarding and comfort OF their men,
but on this pipe line work nothing of
the kind is thought of. No accom-
modations and pittance of wages is
the rule"
BY the above item the reader is lead
to believe that the Perrysburg town
ship farmers are not inclined to be very
accommodating, which is not the case.
There has been no difficulty in secur-
ing board for the better class of the
workmen, but some of the buns who
have been employed on the line have
not been very welcome guests in any
locality, and it is this class only who
have had difficulty in procuring board
ing places. Perrysburg farmers are
as generous and hospitable us any in
the world. The statement that no
effort has been made by the contractors
to secure board for the men is also false
rs they have foreman employed fol
that purpose who goes ahead of the
workmen and makes every possible
effort to secure good quarters for the
men.

General Benjamin F. Butler recently
delivered lecture in Boston on Wen
dell Phillips. There was something
touching in the tribute the stern old
warrior psid to the great orator, and
especially in this closing sentence:
"This is my last effort on the lecture
platform, which he (Mr. Phillips) raised
in the cause of right and Justice" To
those who lived in the time OF the war
and the exciting period which preceded
it, and became familiar with the names
and deeds of the men who figured
prominently in those days, there is a
peculiar sadness in the fact that only a
few of them are left, and they also are
in the act of stepping out from among
men.-Christian Advocate.
