WASHINGTON, D. G., Oct. 27.-
Miss Daisy Garland, daughter of
States Attorney -Gener-
sl Garisnti committed suieide at
her fnther,o home in this city by
eAoOting herself this morning. She
10 twenty one years old, and
though: TO have been insane ct
the time.
The news Of the rash deed has
caused . shock in social circles
here, and it will undoubtedly shock
the friends OF the young lady who
knew her in Arkansas.
She vas . very popular young
lady aud frequently assisted at
Mrs. Clevelsnd's receptions dur.
ing Cieveland's first term. Some
weeks ago she went to Baltimore
for the purpose Of arranging to
enter . convent, and at the time
there was eome question as to her
whereabouts, she having failed to
notify her family of her intentions.
II 10 thought she was crazy on
the subject of religion. She was
. very beautiful girl, and had every
thing that . young lady of her high
standing could wish for. She had
read . great many religious works
recently and wanted to enter .
convent IN order to do more good
for the world.
Miss Garland spent . very pleas
ant evening with her father and
brothers last night at the home, at
915 Rhode Island avenue, and re-
tired in good spirits. After break
fast this morning she retired to
her room, where her brother Will
went shortly after to talk with heI
concerning . theatre party. He
found the door locked, and not
receiving any response to his calls,
he burst into the room and found
his sister lying on the floor dead.
The bullet had passed through
her heart. He smelt gas, and
thought at first that she had been
asphyxiated, bat upon examination
found q bullet hole in her left side
and on the fioor near by an old
revolver which had been in the
family for thirty years.
Miss Garland was the only daugh-
ter of ex.Attorney-General Gar.
land. Her mother had been dead
several years, but her grsnd-moth.
er always lived st the family resi-
dence in this city.
The young lady was well known
in Little Rock. Most other child
hood was spent there aud more
recently she has visited in that
city.
The remains Of the unfortunate
girl will be taken to Little Rock,
and inferred ct Mount Holly Gene.
tery. They will be accompanied
by Rufus aud William Garland, the
two younger brothers, and Capt.
W. s. Davis, Maj. Frank Strong
and Col. Z. o. Howard, friends Of
the family. Gen. Garland and bis
aged mother are completely pros.
trated with grief, and are not able
to undertake the long, sad Journey.
3Shanny," the eldest son, will re.
main here also. The funeral party
will leave here tomorrow at $50
O'Clock, and will arrive st Little
Rock Tuesday morning. Rev. Dr..
Andrew Hunter will conduct the
funeral services.

MRS MILLER AND HER BABE.
a sad Case, in Which Rum Plays Its
Usual Part.

Usual Part.
Frequent reference has been made in
the papers to a woman named Mary
Miller, who is hopeless inebriale. The
woman has little, nalt-nourisked infant
which she carries around with her in her
debauches, and threats were made a
couple OF months ago to have the child
taken from her.
The woman, despite her unfortunate
enslavement to liquor. has not lost her
mo.herly affection for the child, and
when some good ladies offered to take ii
and care for it she fled from here to
Marysville.
few days ago she returned and re-
sumed her custom Of getting drunk, and
late on Tuesday night was arrested and
locked up in the filthy City Jail. Yester-
day Officers Goods and Alter took the
child TO the Infants Home, where it Will
have the care it needs. The woman was
nearly heart broken when her babe was
taken from her, and declared she could
not live without it.
The case is truly sad one, and it is a
pity there is not some institution in
which Mrs. Miller and her babe can both
be placed and where the mother might
be induced to reform.
