SAD CASE
OF SUICIDE

The home of James l.. Purscl, Coop
er township on Saturday morning
was darkoncd by a sad tragedy, the
wife and mother while the others
slept stealthily leaving her bed and
taking her life.
MI. Purscl, who for number of
years lived on the Bright farm near
Mausdalc, at present is the owner of a
pleasant home on the Bloom road
about four miles east OF Hanvlllo,
which was formerly the Kellar farm.
His wife was an Intelligent and high
ly esteemed woman of titty-two years.
Before marriage she was Matilda Cross
lev; she has many relatives in this
and Columbia county and is widely
known.
OF late Mrs. Pursel had shown cvi-
dences of depression, which was attrih-
uted by her friends to i'll health.
She was subject to violent headaches
and suffered from rheumatism. The
dreadful tragedy, however, i'll which
she figured, was never dreamed OF and
to her many friends the news came rs
shock most >tu,hius in its cltrrt

cd during the night The husband
arose before it was fully light and
calling his daughter, hc went out to
the barn to do the morning work.
The daughter, like her father under
the impression that Mrs. Pursrl was
sleeping arose and proceeded to pre-
pare the morning meal. Stepping in
to the wood-shed to proruro kindling
she was confronted with an awful
spectacle
Upon a table sat lighted lamp.
Plainly visible in the light, suspended
from the ceiling hung tn, dead body
of her mother arrayed in her night
clothes Tn poor girls feelings may
be more easily imagined than dr-crib-
ed, but she managed to call her father
and impart to him the dreadful news
County Commissioner George LciR-
how and other nrighI ors were soon
appriscd of what had occurred. one
of these drove down TO this city aud
laid the facts of the ease before Justice
OF the Peace Oglc,by to ascertain
whether an inquest was necessary. 1t
was the opinion OF the Justice that an
inquisition was not necessary, all the
facts clearly indicating suicide.
1t was known that the unfortunate
woman was restless and unahlc TO sleep
during the carhcr part of Friday
night, but nothing Is known OF her
movements leading up to the fearful
tragedy, as the father, daughter and
other inmates of the huusc were asleep
She went about the preparations IN
very deliberate way, omitting moth
ing in the way of detail that was
necessary to insure success. She had
mounted a choppiug block and from
this taken the fatal leap.
Ip addition to her husband Mrs. Pur-
sci is survived by three daughters,

A Thriving Industry.

The Danville Knitting Mills, one of
the most active of our industries, is
running on full time with two hun
dred and eight hands on the pay roll.
There is no such thing as detici-
ency of orders in sight. There are
enough on hand to keep the plant run
ming steadily for many months, among
them being orders for next spring
goods. The company pays its hands
every two weeks disbursing over $1,000
per month.
Under the present management the
Danville Knitting Mills stand estab-
lished on a sound and paying basis and
it is an industry that our town can re-
ly on in the future.

At the council meeting on Monday
might. 18th inst, the question of the oc-
cupation tax was up again for 1903. AL
derman Gid Morris voted against it
on the grounds he said he did not be-
lieve in discrimination His idea is it
is optionary with man as to whether
he lives in or cut Of town or nesr the
! center or on the outskirts, or whether
he be merchant or farmer. He says
he may be wrong in his opinion about
the matter and he does not claim to be
infallible, that he is open to conviction.
de says while he votes his convictions
lie always acquiesces in the will of the
majority, therefore he voted against
the adoption OF the occupation tax be-
lieving it works discrimination, put
ting burdens on some and exempting
others when all share equal privileges
and benefits if they choose to put
themselves in position to get them.

Salem Journal.
The entertainment of the state press
association by the Salem Press Club
was success in every particular and a
credit to the city.
No collection was taken up among
the business men, as is too often done
when it comes to entertaining con-
vention of this character.
Committees met the visitors at all
trains, and said the kindest farewells
to them when they departed.
The Salem Press Club also sent the
delegates to the hotels,a reduced rates,
and did not entertain the convention
at private houses.
The hotels are entitled to all the bus.
mess possible in city like Salem, and
there is too much deadhead private en-
tertaining of delegates.
The concluding event of a grand ball
at the armory, was relished by the edi-
tors from all over the state whether
they danced or not.
A number of prominent gentlemen
and ladies took places in the grand
march who had never been on ball
room floor in their lives and enjoyed it,
although not dancing step. 1t was u
stately and impressive function of a so.
cial character.
The musical programme and the
speaking were all in good taste. The
songs were bright and cheerful and the
speeches were optimistic. Like the
Orientais, the members of the press club
are shaking their own hands over the
perfect success of their entertainment.
