ST. Louis, Mo-, March GA special to
The Republic from Birmingham, Ala,
says: j. l.. Shropshire, for years the
.rusted cashier OF the Central Railway OF
Georgia, here, was missing from his desk
yesterday, and on it laid note from him
which read:
Good-by, it's all over"
The officials began at once an examina-
tion OF his accounts. Shropshire was
found In q room at the Metropolitan
Hotel in an unconscious condition. Physi-
clans were hurriedly sent for, but it was
too late and hs died. An empty morphine
bottle told the story OF the suicide.
The deceased was prominent in social
and secret societies, being commander of
Knights OF Pythias lodge. He led a
most explemary life until lately, when it
said he fell into bad company and gambled.
He was the sole support OF an aged father
and mother and two sisters. The railroad

Relief For Nebraska.

Galloway Central Relief Committee, act
ing for Delight, Custer, Wood River,
Grant, Elm, Triumph, Cliff and Arnold
Townships, Custer County, Nebraska.
To THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS
SR-Our attention mas been directed
to the kindly feeling manifested by the
people of your State toward the destitute
people OF the drouth stricken portion OF
Nebraska, and we hope you will notice in
your columns this appeal made by our re-
lief committee. We have now two or three
weeks food for the starving ahead; still
it is a long time until harvest, and we
have yet much to contend with. We do
not know exactly how you can help us,
for you are a long way off, and the rail-
road companies are imposing restrictions
on free transportation.
Money we have not hitherto asked for;
our wants are primarily something to eat.
We think we have clothing enough in
sight and will not ask for more. Lastly,
we need means to obtain seed.
For the purpose of securing seed we
have determined to solicit money, to be
used in two distinct ways, at the discre-
tion of the donors. The first will be to
buy seed and donate direct to farmers;
the second, for the benefit of those who
do not believe in giving or receiving
charity without any return, but who
believe in what is called practical
charity" is this: To establish
system OF loaning seed to
farmers, taking security for the amount
loaned, protecting and collecting the debt
as promptly and as efficiently as If the
money were placed with us to be used as
an actual investment. BY this means we
hope to be able to return to the donors at
at the end OF the year the amount ad-
yanced, with little IL any loss.
If any OF your readers can spare little
money for these purposes, 1t may be sent
to the Omaha National Bank, Omaha.
Neb., Ito whom we refer,) TO the credit Of
Thomas Norbury, secretary and treasurer
of the Galloway Central Relief Committee
the sender in each case advising us
whether it is intended as charitable do
nation or as loan for the purchase of
seed. Proper acknowledgement of all re-
ceipts Will be promptly forwarded by this
committee.
We shall be very grateful for any help,
however little your people will give US,
and hope it Will not be altogether lost to
them.
We enclose letter which officially de-
clares the amount of relief on hand at the
present time, and endorses our action for
the procuring of seed and other supplies
for the destitute. Respectfully,
THOMAS NoRBuRY, Secretary.
