laid down to die. She came to the
hotel Monday afternoon, registering

was tired. The suicide left note re-
questing that for her mothers sake

On her finger was plain gold band,
and on the inside was engraved "a.

two were marked "L. G.. H." one sd.
A." and one 81. M" A collar which
she had been wearing was marked
similarly to one of the collars in the
package--"L. II. ii. g." Late last
night it was ascertained that On
Tuesday the women called at the

no guest of that name, she asked if
there was any mail for Marshal For

a short time later called at the Great
Northern hotel, where she made the
same inquiries, with the same lack of
success. Then she went to the Vic
toria, where she killed herself.

First-Class Muslcal Entertainment Given
In MtlIKan. Wilkin = Co.'S Music Rooms
The Wheeling Amateur Orchestra
gave first class and highly enjoyable
concert in the music rooms of Milligan,
Wilkin & Co. last evening. This mus
ical organization has an enviable repu-
tation which was in no wise lessened
by the quality of the entertainment last
night. The large. attractive store room
of Milligan, Wilkin & Co. was hand
somely decorated for the occasion. The
place was crowded all evening by peo-
pie attracted by the music and the holt
day disply of the firm. Milligan, Will
kin & Co. have unquestionably the larg-
est line of standard pianos and other
musical instruments and goods in the
city, and have added considerably to
their usual stock for the present buying
season, knowing that the demands upon
them by the public would be greater
this year than any time since they have
been in business. This is what inter-
ested principally the crowds that were
attracted to their store last evening, and
will bring many others during the holt
day season who contemplate making
purchases in this line.

Anton Cienkwsz, Polish lad about
ten years of age, was run over by a
B. & o. passenger train in the Twenty
seventh street yards, back of Spears
axle works about half-past two o'clock
yesterday afternoon and killed.
The boy had been sent out to get
some coal and was industriously en-
gagged in picking up the loose coal
lying about the track when the B. & O..
passenger, coming to the city, approach
ed from behind and struck him. His
body was cut in two, across the abdo-
men, as clearly as if done by knife.
Some parties saw the accident from a
short distance away and the message
was taken to the boys home, only a
few doors on Main street above Twen-
ty-seventh, that he had been killed.
The mother was home with the other
children and lost no time in running
to the spot where the severed body of
her boy lay. She gathered up the upper
part, the head and chest and carried it
to the house in her apron.
There seemed to be a spark of life
left when the mother arrived, but the

house with part of his body. The 9TH
er part was carried home by another
woman, neighbor. The mothers fort
itude was remarkable, but her grief was
touching. The father, who is employ
ed at Hoffmann's tannery, was not at
home when the affair occurred and was
sent for. The family is spoken of as
Of the best element of the foreign ele-
ment which inhabits that part of town,
and the other neighbors freely express
ed their sympathy and rendered their
aid.
Undertaken Shredder took the remains
Of the boy to his establishment, on
South Chapline street. An inquest was
held there last night by Coroner
Schultze, who stated that the boys
death, to all information obtainable,
was accidental
There was but little testimony given
at the coroner's inquest. One of young
Cienkwez's companions says Cienkwz
got his foot caught in a frog of the
track and he tried to pull him loose in
time, but could not succeed. The boy
was cut in two and his lower limbs
were also badly mangled. He will be
buried Monday at Mt Calvary ceme-
terry.
