Henry Covert, of 19 Bishop street, who took a draft of Iaudanum Monday as was stated yesterday, died at about g o'clock in the evening.
 It appears that the young man had been addicted to the incorporate use of liquor, but was trying to reform. He had been very steady in his habits for the past six months, and for the past four months had been paying much att tention to young woman whom he wished to marry. In December last he was thrown out of employment, and was unable to procure any and de- pended upon his parents for support. Dependency over this matter caused him to resume his old habits recently, and a few days ago he wrote letter to the young woman telling her that he was thoroughly discouraged and would soon end his life He said also that he had tried to reform but fate to be against him, The fun eral will take place from his late home on Thursday afternoon
 Medical Examiner White was noti- fled, and after inquiring into the mat ter reported the case to Coroner Mix. Covert was twenty-five years of age, and has two brothers. He formerly worked at Benton & Co.'S folding box factory.

SHERIFF TOMLINS0N SUED.
BELLE ROGERS WANTS FIFE 1HOUS-
 AND DOLLARS DAMAGES.

Sequel to the Rogers-Fry Breach of Promise
 Suit-Case Returnabie to the Superior
 COurt-Other Court Happenings of More
 Than Usual Interest,
 Belle Rogers of Chicago has brought suit against Sheriff Charles A. Tom linson, tos recover $5, ,0OO damages. The suit is brought through Miss Rogers attorneys, Doolittle & Bennett of this city. The present suit is the outcome of a former suit brought by Miss Rog- CTS last summer against William H. Fry of the Consolidated railroad and recovered $35OO damages for breach of promise.
 At that time Fry's salary of $4OO a month was garnlsheed, but only one months salary was secured, as the salary was assigned to someone else, F'ry's body was next attached, but he was released on condition that he should not go outside the jail limits, which practically gave him the range of the town. Later he took the poor debtors oath, which was supposed to have released him from confinement within the jail limits and last week he went west.
 The suit has been brought against Sheriff Tomlinson for allowing Fry to escape and get beyond the Jurisdiction of the court. The whole suit hinges on the question as to whether or not Fry did properly take the poor debtors oath. MT. Doolittle, however, claims that the oath was not properly taken. The suit is returnable to the present term of the superior court.
 THE CASE AGAINST T. H. PRATT.
 Tn the superior court, civil side. yes terday, the trial of the suit of the Evers Costume company of New York against Thomas IT. Pratt of Clinton to recover $3,500 alleged to be due for theatrical costumes, etc, was resumed before Judge Ralph Wheeler and jury The witnesses examined yester- day were for the defense and Samuel Wilder Pease, who sang in the operatic Marie Dressler, the prima donna of the company, and Thomas Fleming of this city. The two former testified that the costumes were not ready for the production and that they did not fit the several actors and ac- tresses. Fleming testified as to the value of the goods and in his testi- mony scaled down the prices charged about one-third. The case will be re- sumed this morning.
