The druggist says that the young man

the best OF his recollection, rather tall
and thin. that he wore a light suit Of

for two ounces OF cnu. otorm-a quantity

Letter from His Sweetheart.
A love letter which was found in the
coat pocket OF Mr.. Broaddus, had no
bearing at all on his death. 1t was from
the girl TO whom he was engaged. a
simple. maiden!y, modest effuson from a
pure minded young woman. who evidently
knew a good deal more about baseball
than she did about love. The only refer
ence indeed, to the tender passion, was i
contained in q sentence which followed
a plea that he would cease to work so
hard in Consideration Of the state of his
health, foi-sald the Wrlter-'you know

tend his classes and left them INN edIately
afterwards. And so he lived much within
himself, and he left the college grounds
