From the meager particulars con-
corning the murder OF the squaw who
had her throat cut i'll the foothills
east OF Sutro n couple OF days ago it
would seem that none OF the requisites
OF a tirat.class Shakesperiun drama
were missing. In fact the tragedy
closely resembled -Othello." There
was a Piute laGo in the scrape. and
the only difference lies in the
fact that the Indian Desdemona had
her throat u by the red.skinned
Othello, instead OF being smothercd
by the pillow. In this, however, it
appears thst our native Othello was
rs much inspired by fire-wnter rs
by jealousy.-Virginia Report.

how would the following paragraph,

The remedy for N difficulty does
not fix the other, and there is more

each possesses the same admirable qualities, but
The Giant Of all Is our Special Large
Machine for Small Horses,
Which cuts a five, six and seven foot swath with as little
exertion as other mowers cut four. The application of
Deering roller and ball bearings to harvesting machin-
cry created a demand for wide cutting bars. They also
made Deering machines famous. as Deering machines
made roller and ball bearings equally famous.
1t is mechanically correct; has a wide, strong frame;
the bar is beaded, giving special r~igidity; and the mater
ials are the best that money can buy. Deering roller
and ball bearings make a wide cut mower a practical
and economical machine.

Some time ago a gentleman had a

her search ran across the boots.
Thinking they were useless she sent
them with the rest OF her donations to

ELKINS, w. Va, October Esd.
Drane, a young mar about thirty years
of age, who has been here in the en-
ploy of the railroad contracting firm
of Rosser, Coleman & Hoge in the ca
pacity of bookkeeper, last night COM
mitted suicide by shooting himself
three times with a revolver, two shots
taking effect in the vicinity of his
heart and the other in the head. His
death resulted almost instantaneously.
Young Drane was from Frankfort. KY,
and his father, it is reported here, was
at one time supreme judge in the
courts of the Blue Grass State. He
was one of the most popular men en-
gagged ON the Coal & Iron Railway,
was never known to take a drink MOI
dissipate in any way since he came
here several months ago. and his tragic
death was a great shock to the many
friends he had made here during his
stay. He had been III i'll health for
several years, and a few years ago, 1t
is stated, he had some sort Of trouble
with his head, which he feared. judg-
ing from his feelings during the past
few days, was going to come on him
again. He left a note stating that he
was of no use to himself or any one
else and had better be dead. His re-
mains were taken to his old home in
Frankfort for interment.
