COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Mrs. Pruey, Tired Of Life, Leaves by the
Arsnic Route for Better Land.

| Mrs. Antonio Pruey, wife of Ferdinand
| Pruey. a tailor in the employment of
Schwab & CLOSER, committed suicide yes
terday morning at her residence at 332
Riveryiew avenue.
Yesterday morning after o'clock DR..
Taylor was awakened by young lad
named Hugo, who summoned him to the
residence of Pruey, saying that Mrs
Pruey had taken poison. DR.. Taylor made
all the haste possible, but about two min
utes before he arrived the soul of Mrs
Pruey had winged its flight to the IN
known beyond and it was impossible for
the doctor to recall it.
The deceased left husband and one child
who is about Is months of age. She was &c
years old, was born in Ham burg and was
married in this city about four years ago.
She had the reputation of being an excel
lent little German woman and was the
sister of Mrs. Shoenfelt, wife of another
tailor who works at Schwab & Glosser's.
What caused her to commit the rash act
is not yet known, but it will probably
come out in the evidence at the inquest,
which will be held at the coroner's office
this morning at o'clock. 1t is said, how
ever, that her husband has been treating
her badly and it is even limited that be has
whipped her very often. Like so many
others, he is reputed to be very good
and kind man when sober, but cor
respondingly mean and ugly when
under the influence of liquor. I'm
fortunately he is addicted 10 this
habit aud perhaps is, in reality,
oftener under the influence of drink than
otherwise. At about 9 o'clock Monday
night he went home and in all likelihood
was under the influence of drink for he
soon after went to bed and fell into a
sound sleep from which he was not
awakened till early in the morning when
the violent vomiting of his wife disturbed
him. He Immediately surmised W hat was
the matter, as she had often threatened to
end her life, and Immediately seut for DIR.
Taylor. He then Investigated the premises
and found a jelly glass on the stove which
contained portion of arsenic. The does
was evidently a large one as there is still
enough of the poison ciinging to the glass
to kill one or two other persons. When
Dr. Taylor went to the home of Pruey
Yesterday morning he found dishes
washed prepared for breakfast, but it is
probable the woman did this work the
previous night as she was in her night
gown yesterday morning when she died.
The coroners jury was empannelled yes
terday and after viewing the body an adj
journment was taken till this morning at
9 o'clock.
Dr. st. John was called in to make a
post norton examination and be, in turn,
called DR.. Hoffman to assist him. Both
gentlemen made an autopsy and found
that she had taken large dose of poison,
the stomach showing by the usual evil
dence that ii was arsnic.
A good many hard stories are told about
the manner of her treatment by her hus-
band but as this is matter that may
properly come before the jury for investi-
CATION it is well, perhaps, to let the matter
rest till after the examination.
The remains will be buried this after
noon at 3 o'clock.

ANOTHER SNEAK CAUGHT.

The dispatch put on to the wires by a
tool of the Missouri river freight combine,
named Vsiandingham. to the effect that
the Wichita injunction had been dissolved
by the federal court at Hot Springs, is a
lie out of whole cloth, SO that the Growing
set up by the Kansas City papers was a
little immature. Valandingham fooled
his own friends and nobody else. One of
Wichita's jobbers appears in communi-
cation elsewhere touching the subject.

On Saturday a carload of os. triches passed through, en route from the ostrich farm in Southern California to Chicago, where they will be exhibited at the Worlds Fair. The car contained thirty of the monster birds, and was in charge of two men. This shipment by freight was the first one, and the birds were crowded together in a very uncomfortable manner. Here tofore shipments have been made by express, but the expense has been great. The birds were quite a curiosity, and attracted a large crowd during the time the freight train remained here.-Coconino Sun.

Holt was held up at Chey- enne last week with 2.000 head of cattle on account of South Dakot a quarantining against southern dis eased cattle, and that on accoun t of the false reports furnished the associated press by the Phenix pre- varicator. The matter was adjust ed later on and the cattle allowed to go on to their destination, after an unnecessary, embarrassing delay and expense.

Col. Mike Gray has two of his blood hounds in town with him. He brought them in for 8 vacation. The Col. says that he has made a number of remarkable runs with them. and in no instance did they fail to trail the object of their search until they found him. These tests were made out of curiosity and were highly satisfactory, The Col. believes that if the sheriff of the county should keep a couple of these dogs or hand he would not have any difficulty in trailing crim- inals, and says that if he was acting in such capacity he would never be without them. The county might do worse than to look into the ad visibility of owning couple of them. The expense would be tri- fling and the benefit would certain ly be great.-Prospector.

SAYS the Atlanta Journal: Only in New York and Iowa did the "fa.
 Vorite-son" canvass win delegates from Cleveland, and those in New York were secured by nasty ac- tion which could rot now be re- peated. It is due to Gov. Russell and Senator Palmer to say that they did not encourage the effort of their friends in their respective states, but declared themselves for Clev G. land. We believe that Senator Car lisle did likewise. A man who thus triumphs nearly everywhere over local personal attachments and state pride must be exceptionally popular with the Democratic party of the whole country. Thet is the popular endorsement with which Grover Cleveland's name will be presented to the Chicago conven- tion, and that body cannot disregard it without peril to the party.
