ANDREW JOHNSON sUIcIDED.

Amasa added another chapter TO it's
notriety on Wednesday forenoon when
Andrew Johnson, proprietor of the
corner saloon, put bullet into his
brain Mr.. Johnson has been re-
sident of Amasa for two years and has
always enjoyed an enviable reputation
a. peaceful and usefnl citizen sof
the community. At Crystal Falls
W iere he lived before coming here,
he was we'll Thought Of.
No explanation seems at hand for mis-
rash deed. Mr. Johnson was about the
saloon all the morning as was his us
ual custom and seemed in cheerful
enough moode. Shortly before com
hitting the deed he called in few Of
his friends off the street and treated
lem. Later he went into the back
room and killed himself
His bartender knew OF no reason
why he should commit the act He
states that Johnson had been in a
gloomy moode for couple Of months
His gloominess extended only so far
that he didn ! talk much, rarely speak
ing unless he was spoken 10.
The remains were taken in charge
by friends who in the search of his
effects found 1915 in his trunk.

SLEPT WITH A CORPSE.

There is a story going the rounds
here to the effect that one Of our citiz-
ems slept with corpse last Sunday
night The story is tat the citizen
in question had been sleeping in
the town hall since the fire and on
Sunday night the township authorities,
unknown to him, placed the corpse Of
the murdered man in the hall The
citizen in question rolled in about
midnight and. seeing the corps in tn
bunk, supposed that 1t was another
man compelled to take the same quart
ers as himself so he turned in bed with
him. When our citizen awoke the
next morning he saw the man lying
with his hat over his eyes and called
to him saying, wake up old man. it's
time to turn odt' He noticed that
the fellow paid no attention to him 80
when he mad finished dressing he went
over to to him intending 20 snake him
and wake him no. His first move
shook the hat off the face OF the corpse
and our citizen found the true state OF
his bedfellow. 1t is needless to say
that he made his escape as quickly as
possible
