....Happenings

Some excitement prevails south
west of Jackson over supposed cas-
of suicide. William Eifng, a farm
or, started for Martin Arndt's place
with his rifle, to sit up with him and
watch for thieves. As he did not re-
turn in the morning, Mrs. Eidine
went over to Mr.. Arndt's place
and learned he had not been there. A
search was made, which resulted in
finding hisi dead body in sitting
position against hay stack. He was
holding the barrel of the rifle with his
hands One shoe and stocking were
off and his big toe was on the trigger.
There was hole through his head.
The coroner was called and pro-
nounced it suicide, but on the 10th
some writing with chalk was found
on one of Mr.. Arndt's buildings say
ing Eifiing was not guilty of the steal
ing that the writer did it, but he had
nothing to do with the shooting. The
sheriff went out after dark to watch
the place and remained till about 4
o'clock in the morning without seeing
any one Early this morning one of
Mr.. Arndt's young .girls..brought in a
copy of another message written on
the north side of the wall after the
sheriff left, as follows: "M. B. Dunn,
you watched for me, but | watched
for you, too. I could have blowed
your head off instead of you blowing
mine. You are not smart enough 20
catch me. - The superstition in the
is that Mr.. Eifling did
not take his own life, but was MUIR
