Tragic Sequel to u Woman's Strange
InfatuatiOn.

Special to the Globe.
VALLEY CITY, N. D., Nov 20.-A
man and woman committed suicide
some time between o'clock Thursday
morning and this morning at the Kind
red hotel in this city. On Wednesday
evening q man and woman registered
at the Kindred hotel under the names
of ThOs. Owens and wife, of New Rock
ford, and were assigned a room Later
in the evening they went to q drug
store and bought some prussic acid,
saying he wanted it to kill bedbugs,
and the man signed the name of Will
liam Johnson. The man was around
the hotel at different times and insist
ed that a transom be put in over the
door as the transOm was out and one
was fitted in, which being a trifle small,
a piece of heavy cloth was tackled over
the same on the inside. The last seen
of either was about O'clock Thursday
morning, when the night clerk saw the
man go up stairs. Neither was seen I'M
til this morning when their absence be-
coming marked, the door was tried and
found locked. A skeleton key was pro-
duced and the door opened about 10
a. m, and the man and woman were
found in the bed locked in each others
arms dead, covered with a quilt. The
man was in his shirt sleeves and the
woman had on her clothing with the
exception of her shoes. DR.. DeVaur
was called, who ordered everything
kept in perfect order and telegraphed
Coroner Barton at Sanborn, who came
and held the inquest. All the doctors
in the city agreed that the death was
caused by prussic acid and found that
the druggist was in no way to blame,
as the parties registered when they
bought the poison.
In a book on the table the man had
written Separated in life we are join
ed in death, make no inquiries for you
cannot find out who we are, bury us
together. Sufficient money will be
found on our bodies" On the bodies
$39. The sheriff Of Eddy county was
telegraphed for and came in on the
o'clock train tonight, accompanied by
States Attorney Madden and J. R.
Swain, Of New Rockford, who identified
the parties as Mrs. Emma Swain,
his wife, and Frank Addison.
The evidence showed that Addison had
been cook for a threshing crew for
the past two years, and Mrs. Swain had
become infatuated with him, that last
summer they had attempted suicide,
but were resustitated and their death
at this time was fully premeditated.
The verdict of the coroner's jury was
that 1--WE, the jury, according to our
best knowledge and belief and as shown
by the evidence given, find that the
deceased came to their death from a
poisonous amount of prussic acid taken
voluntarily and with suicidal intent"
Mr. and Mrs. Swain were among the
foremost people Of Eddy county, owfring g
a large farm and home, were in good
circumstances, and her wild infatuation
is one of the great mysteries Of life.
Mrs. Swain leaves q daughter aged
seventeen, a son aged fourteen, and
two younger children. Her body will
be taken to New Rockford tomorrow
for burial, while Addison will be buried
here.

OTTAWA, Ont, Nov. 1S.-The Mani

than once during the past three years.
threatened a disruption of the Cana
dian confederation, las been settled on
terms which, it is believed, will be suf-
fciently satisfactory to both sides. to
put an end to the controversy. Fol-
lowing are the main features of the
terms of settlement, which have been
accepted by the Manitoba government,
and will be embodied shortly in an
act Of the legislature of that body:
Religious teachings is to be conducted
in the public schools If authorized by
resolution passed by a majority Of
school trustees or If petition be pre-
sented to the board of school trustees
asking for religious teaching and
signed by the parents or guardians Of
at least ten children attending the
school in a rural district or by the
parents or guardians of at least TWEEN
ty-five children attending school in q
city, town or village.

acter will occupy the whole of the
school day. except the last half hour,

ious denomination will be allowed to

longing to his denomination, provided
the parents are willing to have them
remain. In cases where the people de-
cided not to have this religious instruc-
tion, the regular school work will go
on until the close Of the school hours.
The proViso that makes the schools
acceptable to the minority is that dis
tr1cts having an average attendance of
twenty-five Roman Catholic school
children shall be entitled to have a
teacher Of their own denomination who
must be fully qualified according to
provincial national school standards.
In districts where the children speak
French wholly, they are to have a
teacher speaking both English and
French, SO that they will learn Eng
lish as rapidly as possible. The read
ers used in such schools will be BIZ
lngual, so that the children will grow
up from the first accustomed to Eng
lish.
