GEORGIE M0NTGOMERT'S SUICIDE.
The Young Girl Found Writhing in
Great Agony.
Death Soon Came to Her Relief-The
Act Thought to be the Result Of
Lovers Quarrel.

| George Montgomery. young girl who
resided with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
George w. Montgomery, at 11l3 II street,
committed suicide at an early hour yes
terday morning by swallowing two
ounces of carbolic acid.
1t is stated that she left her mother s
house at o'clock on the preceding even
ing for the purpose of transacting some
errands down town, promising to return
early. the exact hour of her return, or
when she swallowed the fatal dose, will
probably never be known.
About midnight the mother was awak-
ened by her daughters cries, and going to
the latter's room found her writhing in
agony upon the bed. The girl acknowl-
edged that she had taken poison.
= physician was called in but when he
arrived he found it was too late to coun-
teract the effects Of the poison, and shortly
after | o'clock \. NJ. the girl died.
1t is supposed that a quarrel with her
! lover, Walter q. Williams, was the cause
OF the girls act. Williams states that he
met Miss Montgomery on Saturday even
ing and warned her that she had to for
sake the company of certain girl that
| had OF late been her constant companion,
or all relations between them must cease.
| The girl refused to make any promises.
but parted from him in apparently good
spirits.
Her parents are old and respected resi-
dents of the city, her father having been
employed for some years as a carpenter
in the railroad shops.
The carbolic acid was in a two-ounce
vial bearing the label of Tufts drug store,
but when it was purchased is not known,
Carbolic acid is d drug that is sold eyerv
day for disinfecting and other purposes,
and could have been purchased at any
drug store.
The parents of Miss Montgomery are
greatly distressed over the unfortunate
affair.

Plans For Establishing Novel Post Route.

Reindeer raising by the United States

services Of 4 large force Of experienced
men, all Of whom have been brought
from Lapland for the sole purpose Of

The government now proposes to es-
tablish a mail route from the most
northern extremity Of the territory down
to Unalaska, where connections will De
made by steamer with San Francisco.
Thus the agents, schOOlteacheTs and
missionaries who are employed along
the great Yukon river and its tributaries
will be brought into closer co1nmunica-

No Water to Spare In the St. Lawrence.
Shipowners at Montreal view with
alarm the completion Of the Chicago
drainage canal. Even without that
drain on the source of the St. Lawrence
the river is falling with great rapidity.
If the water continues to recede at its
present rate, the larger ocean steamships
will be obliged to Tighten a portion Of
their cargoes in order to get out and
into the port Of Montreal.
The average draft Of the ocean steam
ships which frequent the port is a trif1e
more than 20 feet, though the class Of
ships such as the Partisan, Labrador,
Vancouver, Mongolian. etc., draw con-
siderably more. On July % the water in

which is q decrease Of one inch below
the day before. For some time past a
gradual decrease Of about an inch in q
day has taken place. The low record

Mind Reader TyudaI1 Says He VIII Rise

A special to the San Francisco Call
from Santa Barbara says:
Alexander McIlver Tyndall, a mind
reader, proposes to undertake to be bur
led alive for ten days, at the expiration
of which period he promises to rise liv-
ing and breathing from the grave.
Tyndall's proposal is to be placed i'll
a hermetically sealed casket, being first
covered with clarified butter, sealing all
pores Of the body and the eyes, mouth.
ears and nostrils, This work is to be
performed under the eyes of physicians.
The casket is then to be placed six
feet under ground, covered with earth,
grass seed planted and permitted to
spring above. The grave is TO be guard
cd day and night, when. ct the expira-
ton Of the tenth day, the casket shall!
be disinterred and opened in the pres
ence OF physicians who had witnessed
the interneut.
The experiment. is modelled after the
feats performed by an Fast Indian sect.
The proprietors of a hotel have accepted
the proposition and intend making San
ia Barbara the center Of the scientific
attention Of the world during the perioG
Of Professor Tyndall's burial.
A similar proposal was made by Tyn
