= Canine Causes Considerable Excite
meut on the south Side.
Henry Goethe, the saloonist at the
corner of Twenty-third and Market
street, is the owner Of large New
Foundland dog, which be values at $50.
A few evenings ago. the dog went mad
and made great excitement In that To-
cality. The streets were crowded with
people, and the dog was first seen com
ing up Main street. He was biting at
people and running against them. This
created great commotion. The dog
bounded up a flight Of stairs aud into 4
kitchen, through the front parlor, caus-
ing the housewife to scream and nearly
faint.
The made brute did not bite anybody
in the house but dashed through the
window and balancing himself on the
coruice In front OF the building twenty
feet from the ground, walked about a
quarter OF square. Citizens ran mp and
down town for policeman. The ani-
maj missed his footing, and fell into a
crowd of excited women and then dash
ed toward the river. An officer arrived
aud made a search for the canine, but
the log has not been seen since. The
clothes Of several persons was torn by
the dog, but no one was bitten.

They got three deer, but didn't count the quail.
John Crab and Mrs. Waters, of Oklahoma,

Chas. Hiiderbrand met with a painful acct
badly injured.

Harvey Law, a son. This item is a little late
but as the boy is becoming a more important
item every day, it is due to him that the public
should hear of MIN.
Sam Griffin had the good fortune to shoot
very large gray wolf not long since. He will
get some $50 bounty from cattlemen as we'll as
from the county.
Owing to the numerous snow storms of late
all lines of transportation and communication
about Deerhead have been interrupted and
business generally suspended.
Mr. Tackett who has been visiting relatives
in Missouri and Illinois, returned home re-
Gently.
The people of Deerhead had a pleasant time
on Christmas eve. The school house was CON-
fortably filled and the exercises interesting.
All were remembered, but the tree would have
had more fruit if people could have got to the
stores.

On Thursday night some thief made a raid
on some oats which were in the care of DR..

ten or twelve bushels were purloined. On Fri

the doctors wrath was greatly kindled and

with the minions of the law he proceeded to
search all parts of the city where he supposed
there might be storage for ten or twelve bush

There has been enough pifering done lately to

Prescription Spectacles.

To speak of prescription glasses 20
nine persons out of ten would excite a
smile, and especially was this true ten
years ago. When words run together
when you find marked difficulty i'll
catching the next line, when you are
troubled with sick-headache, or when
you get dizzy after reading awhile,
then it is that glasses have to be ground
especially for you, and they are called
compound or prescription spectacles
because one face of the lenses are con-
vex or concave and the other side
cylindrical. To detect such errors and
remedy them require the highest skill
of the Refractlonist.

A Tragic End.

A feeling of mingled horror and
gloom was thrown over our burg Sun
day evening by the astonishing an
nouDcement that one of our best known
residents, Jas. r. McNeal who has been
for several years employed in the Cres-
set Office of this city, had taken his life.
Mr.. McNeal had fire quer tly TESTED be-
fore about committing suicide, but as
he was of a genial, almost jolly nature
on occasions, little notice was taken of
his remarks. During the week before,
he had acted as editor of the INDEX in
our absence, and all who called at the
Office spoke OF his pleasant. jovial, jesting
manner, and no one could suspect that
he meditated suicide. Besides this,
Sunday evening at o'clock was to have
been his wedding hour; and the intend
ed bride and preacher at that hour
were patiently awaiting the arrival of
the groom, all unconscious of the
awful tragedy that had happened.
In the morning at the Grand hotel
when all were registering for the New
Year, Jim remarked that he would
now register there, but before
night he would register in heaven or
hell. The standers-bY took it merely
as joke. AGAIN he asked DR.. Gould
If Is grains of morphine would kill a
man, and the doctor jestingly answered
that it would take 81 grains to kill him;
little suspecting any serious intentions
when the question was asked. A little
before noon Jim lay down in the doc
tors room and the doctor lett him, re-
turning after 2 in the afternoon to find
him almost corpse. No effort could
overcome the effect OF the deadly drug.
The cOroners inquest showed that he
had died from All overdose of morphine,
administered by his own hand; the
evidence not being conclusive of sui
eide, though highly probable.
There are many surmlses as to the
cause of his action; and the rumor that
he had wife and Child living seems to
be well founded.
The funeral services were conducted
in the parlor of the Grand Hotel by
Rev. Clark of the Presbyterian church,
and his remains were quietly laid at
rest about II o'clock Tuesday morning.
Whatever may be tie cause of his
trouble and disaster, let US draw the
mantle of charity about his short COM
ings, for his weaknesses brought their
own punishment; and how true at
heart he may have been the world can
never know. Let us remember Jim as
the good-natured, friendly, fellow, who
seemed to want TO do right and
and be kind to every one; however weak
he may have proven.
We cannot but extend unusual sym
pathy to his sorrowing friends and re
latives in this unusual and awful trial.
