A Sensational Suicide.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla: Fannie Viola
Finnigan, handsome and refined young
woman, shot herself through the heart in
her room at the Carleton Hotel. The
woman had been a guest at the hotel for
three weeks, and it is supposed she came
from Spencer, Mass. She was decided
brunette, dressed richly and spent money
freely. She had rented safety deposit
box at the State Bank of Florida, and in
it were found considerable sum of money
valuable jewels and watch.
When the pistol shot sounded Manager
KOon, of the hotel, and others rushed to
the room and found the woman on the
bed dead, and dressed fyr the grave. Two
letters were found, one addressed to
Manager Koon and the other to Under
taker Tyler. The letter to Mr.. Koon
read:
"If am not quite dead when you ar
rive don't call a doctor or disarrange
my clothing, as 1 shall die in few mo-
ments."
The letter to Undertaken Tyler gave in
structionS about the coffin and funeral.
Among other things she wrote:
"Of all places do not dare to bury me in
Mt. Hermon Cemetery. I would not
tolerate that l wish my coffin to be at
least six inches wider than customary.
You may think four or five inches will do.
1t will not. / insist on the coffin being
six inches wider, as do not wish to be
crowded. Bury my revolver with me in
reach of my right hand. 1t is to remain
loaded, with the exception of one shot,
which shall discharge myself. Ny waist
is clean now, and although it may become
blood stained it is not to be removed"
Nothing is known of the woman here,
and kilograms to Spencer, Mass, remain
unanswered. 1t is believed the name
t'Finnigan" was assumed.

No Second-C1ass Fares.

Lines members of the Central Passen-
ger and Trunk Lines committees are
considering a proposition to abolish sec
ond-class fares. Another matter of more
than ordinary interest to a large number
of people concerns the policy to be fol-
lowed next year in handling clergy busi-
ness. 1t is said many of the passenger
men are more than pleased with the man
ner in which Western roads handled the
clergy business this year and that like
plan may be adopted by the Eastern
lines. That, however, is hardly likely.
The misuse of charity fares, protective
forms of excursion tickets, government
transportation orders, interterritorial
party fares and number of other inter-
esting subjects are docketed for consid,

Nebraska for Bryan.

Omaha-Although the returns from Ne
braska are fragmentary and may remain
incomplete for two or three days, enough
is known to warrant the conclusion that
Nebraska has been carried for Mr.. Bryan
and the fusion state ticket, by majOrities
ranging from 5000 to 5000 and possibly
more. The vote for presidential electors
on both the republican and fusion tickets
is considerably heavier than that given to
candidates for state offices and congress-
men. HolcOmb will run from 80 to l, 500
lower than Bryan, and the candidates on
the fusion state ticket will not quite reach
the vote for HOlcOmb. This is also true
as regards the vote for MacColl and the
republican state ticket, as compared with
the Mckinley electors.

on actual count i'll Nebraska ON president

Fosters Trip to China.

WASHINGTON: Ex-Secretary John w.
Foster of Indiana, is likely to have great
deal to do with shaping the future policy
of the vast Chinese empire. When he
sailed from San Francisco for China a
couple of weeks ago it was generally
understood among his friends here that
he was going as the chief adviser of Lii
Hung Chang, the new Chinese premier.
There has long been friendship between
the two statesmen, antedating the treaty
of Shimoneski, when Mr.. Foster acted as
advisory counsel to Lii Hung Chang.
This treaty was in large measure die
tated by Mr.. Foster, and it is said that
the Chinese viceroy then discovered how
valuable it would be to have a skilled
diplomat to advise him on all foreign
matters.

living at Spry, this county, found bag
filed with gold and silver notes. Before
he had time to count his find, his hired

and made off with it. Spangler pursued
Sullivan, but the latter threatened to kill
him, and made good his escape with the
treasure. Spangler noticed the denomi-
nations of the notes, which he says was
$500. The police are now looking for

Law and Order Defied.

GoLDsBoRo, N. c.: An incendary
speech made here by Frank Baker, "a
colored man of Dudley, caused clash
between white and colored citizens. A
mob of over 150 negroes armed with
knives, pistols and clubs marched through
the city and detied the law. The sheriff
and city authorities finding themselves
unable to cope with the mob called upon
the Goldsboro Rifles for assistance. This
action had the effect of quelling the dis
turbance, which for time looked as
though a riot was imminent.

"By the President of the United States
The people of the United States should
never be unmindful of the gratitude they
owe the God of nations, for his watchful
care which has shielded them from disas
ter and pointed out to them the way OF
peace and happiness. Nor should they
ever refuse to acknowledge with contrlte
hearts their proneness to turn away from
Gods teachings and to follow with sin
full pride after their own devices.
"To the end that these thoughts may
,be quickeaed, it is fitting that on day
especially appointed we should join to-
gether in approaching the throne of
grace with praise and supplication.
Therefore, I, Grover Cleveland, Pres
ident of the United States, do hereby des-
ignate and set apart Thursday, the 26th
day of the present month of November,
to be kept and observed as a day of
Thanksgiving and prayer throughout our
land.
"On that day let all our people forego
their usual work and occupation and, as
sembled in their accustomed places of
WOESulp, let llelu Will ouS tiCSOlu lShuCl
thanks to the Ruler of the Universe for
our preservation as a nation and our de-
liverance from every threatened danger;
for the peace that has dwelt within our
boundaries; for our defense against dis
ease and pestilence during the year that
has passed; for the plenteous rewards
that have followed the labors of our hus-
bandmen; and for all the other blessings
that have been vOuchsafed to US.
"And let us, through the mediation of
him who has taught us how to pray, i'm
plore the forgiveness of our sins and
continuation of heavenly favor.
''Let US not forget on this day of
Thanksgiving the poor and needy, and by
deeds of charity let out offerings of praise
be made more acceptable in the sight ot
the Lord.
''Witness my hand and the seal of the
United States, which l have caused to be
hereto affixed.
Done at the City of Washington this
4th day of November, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and

the United States of America the one
