DEATH OF CHARLES HoYT.
The Famous PIsywrIghps Life Ends
at CbarIestowB, N. H.-VIc-
tim of PareSis.

Charlestown, ". H., Nov. 21.--Charles
H. Hoyt, the well-known playwright,
died at his residence here at 7:15
o'clock Tuesday night of paresis, from
which he bad been suffering for several
months past. Ever since his return to
Charlestown, after his release from a
private asylum at Hartford, by order
of the court early in August, IT has
been known by his attendants and
nearest friends that his condition was
serious, and that there was little or
no chance for his recovery, but Mr..
Hoyt apparently had seemed hopeful
Of ultimate recovery. Previous to two
weeks ago there appeared to be slight
improvement in his condition, although
he had periods Of depression. About
two weeks ago his appetite failed and
he had bad turn, from which he only
partially recovered. Since that time
he has been unable to take any except
liquid nourishment, but continued to
be up and around his room until Mon
day. He steadily lost strength, and
Tuesday morning he suffered relapse
and became unconscious, in which con-
dition he remained until death came.

Rad Road
Some one has said there is time
when forbearance ceases to be vir-
tue" That time has come in regard
to that part of the Iowa City road
lying inside the corporation of Oska-
loosa from the east end Iof High
avenue. north one street, thence east
to George Poland's. 1t is and has
been for several years past in the
very worst possible condition.
Appeals have been madellto the
mayor and to the chairman of the
street committee two months ago
and repairs promised but nothing
done. That road is disgrace to the
county. II the city wants our trade
they want to make a good road SO
we can,get to it.

pulled her in the bushes. She did not say
that two or more had hold Of her. Effie
Cunningham. who was there at the time,
told Mr.. Levin that one OF the men who
rode up the hill asked Lucy to go into the
bushes with him. and she said she would
not. He them she said. took hold of her
arm. and they went into the bushes to-
gether." In going over that morning with
Lucy the witness said she heard Lucy say:
1T was ridiculous, the sheriff being in it,
Milton Smith, son of Lee Smith, one Of
the accused, testified that he met Mr.. Hart
father of Lucy Hart, the next day. and he
charged Todd Fox and his son with the
crime, and did not say anything about the
others.
All the defendants were placed on the
stand. and each of them denied the charge
of criminal assault.
This ended testimony for the defense and
the court took recess until . o'clock when

that two of the counsel on each side should
