A Butcher Wagon ColIides with Col.

 A COLLISION.

A Butcher Wagon Collides with Col.
 Knox's Buggy.
 Early this (Monday) morning, while Col. R. NJ. Knox, accompanied by Mir Kendricll, a carpenter, was driving in his buggy out on South Cherry street, a butchers wagon just behind him, collided with the buggy, which upset and precipitated Col. Knox and his companion to the ground. Neither of the gentlemen, however, sustained injuries.
 The accident occurred in this way: Col. Knox was leisurely driving along when butchers wagon came up from the rear. Gol. Knox suddenly turned his buggy to the right, which was unobserved by the driver on the butchers cart, when the two vehi- eles came in collision. Col. Knox's new buggy was uniniured, but the butchers cart. we are advised, will have to be sent to the blacksmith's shop for repairs

PATRICK GILL PREFERRED THE
GRAVE TO AN INSANE HOSPITAL
SOJOURN.
HANGING IN HIS CELLAR.
HIS WIDOW FOUND HIS DEAD BODY
ON ARISING YESTERDAY
MORNING.
Deceased Had Been Resident in
This Vicinity for About Forty
Years.

Laboring under the fantasies Of
diseased mind, Patrick Gill, for the
past forty years a resident of St. Paul
and the vicinity, took his own life at
an early hour yesterday morning by
hanging himself to a joist in the cellar
of his residence, 2S3 Grove street. When
found by his wife shortly before {
o'clock, he was quite dead and had
evidently been hanging from the i'm
prOvised scaffold several hours. Coroner
Nelson was advised of the suicide, and
after an investigation, decided that no
inquest or autopsy was necessary. The
suicide was sixty-eight years of age.
When Mrs. Gill arose yesterday morn
ing, she found that her husband had
gone out. After waiting some time,
thinking he had gone out for an early
walk and would return, Mrs. Gill be-
came alarmed, and awaking the ser
want, began a search of the premises.
Mr.. Gills mind had been affected for
some years, and, as he had frequently
threatened suicide, it was feared he
had carried out his determination to
die. On reaching the cellar the fears
Of the wife were realized by finding
the body of her husband, swaying
gently few inches above the floor,
from an overhead beam. The fatal
moose was a piece of heavy binding
twine, evidently procured from a bun
die, while at the feet of the suicide
were two small stools and a pine board.
which he had kicked away after ad-
justing the twine to his neck. Death
resulted from strangulation
While blow to Mrs Gill, the suicide
of her husband was not wholly a shock.
as he had of late frequently threatened
to take his life. Four years ago the
dead man was an inmate of the insane
asylum at Rochester for a period of
five months, and though discharged
and not violent, has since been con-
sidered of unsound mind. He realized
his mental weakness himself. and had
a horror of ever again being confined.
Recently it became apparent that il
would be necessary to place the aged
man in an institution for the insane.
and arrangements were made with a
private sanitarium for his care. When
he learned of this Mr.. Gill declared he
would die rather than conform to the
plan, but when he arose yesterday
morning his wife suspected nothing nm
usual, as it was the custom of her
husband to take a walk before break
fast. When he did not return, how
ever, the worst was feared and found
to be true.
Il The dead man was formerly a farmer

DAIRY BOARD OF TRADE
Selects Headquarters in the Fire and
Marine BuiIdinE

The Minnesota dairy board of trade
has selected rooms in the Chamber Of
Commerce building, Fire and Marine
building, and will there hold its first
meeting. The secretary has sent out
another circular letter addressed to the
creamery men Of Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Iowa and the DakOtas. In many re p.
spects this circular is like the first,
which was printed in the G o b e Of
last Sunday. 1t gives a history of the
board and the objects that prompted
the movement. Some of the points
dWelt upon are these: :,
The prevailing idea has been that the
transactions of a dairy board may par
take of the nature of an option board.
This is erroneous, as the following ex-
PLANTATION of the workings of the Min
nesota Dairy Board of Trade of St
Paul will show The methods of sale
on the board are very simple. Any
person member of the board can Of
fer butter and cheese on the board.
The offer is listed on the blackboard.
the creamery from which it comes be-
ing designated. The buyers make
their offers, and the highest offer is
noted opposite. When the call is made,
if the seller is satisfied, he sells, if he
is not, he withdraws his offer and no
sale takes place. All sales are at the
sellers option. The impression that
when butter or cheese is offered on
change it must be sold is incorrect
The seller may avail himself of the op-
portunity to offer his product, and get
offers from buyers upon it, but may
withdraw it without a sale if the offers
are not satisfactory
