TOOK her OWN LIFE.
MISS CLARA JOHNSON HUNG
HERSELF IN BARN YES
TERDAY MORNING
AT THE OLD JOHNSON MILL
CORONER GAME HOLDS AN
Inquest YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON. ''--'

Miss Clara johnson, daughter of
Mrs. Henry johnson, living at
Johnson's mill, five miles northeast
of Morris, took her own life by
hanging early yesterday morning.
The story of the sad occurrence as
it was told at the coroner's inquest
IN the afternoon is substantially as
follows:-
All of the johnson family had
arisen as usual this morning. Julius
was out in the yard fixing his wagon
preparatory to hauling a load of
grain to town. When he returned to
the house his mother asked him
where Clara was. He replied that
she was at the barn milking, but
when his mother called attention
to the fact that the pals were still
in the house, he went out to the barn
and found his sister harging in one
of the stalls, apparently dead. She
had taken about four strands of
binding Irvine, and tied it to the top
part of Il rack manager, not more
than seven or eight feet from the
floor, Then she had evidently
climbed onto e plank laid across the
stall partitions, fastened a loop of
the Irvine around her neck and slid
off of the plank, thus drawing the
loop tightly around her neck. Death
was due to strangulation and stop
age of the circulation, and evidently
came without struggle. Every
thing was done to restore life, but she
had already passed beyond the
reach of human effort.
Coroner Caine called together
jury, and examined into the cause
of her death yesterday afternoon.
The jury consisted of Ell. G. Olson,
j. J. McCanney, Herman Kerl, D.
S. Long, X. ]. Lundgren and Moses
Williams. They returned a verdict
that she came to her death by her
own hand. .-,:. .--. -..5,., .. ... 4
Miss Johnson was Sc years of age,
and has been resident of this county
from childhood. She was we'll known
to large circle of friends, and was
universally respected as a kind and
Woodworking young lady. Her death
is a severe blow to her mother, who
is feeble with age, and within the
past year has lost son and a hus-
band. The family is now reduced
to the mother, two sons, Anton and
Julius, and two daughters, Mile,
and Mrs. Tollefson, who now lives
at Austin.
The kindest sympathy goes out to
the remaining members of the family
in their great sorrow.

Luther Wins Five Straight Games.

The game of base ball on the college
grounds last Wednesday afternoon be-
tween the Western College and Luther
College teams was the fifth consecu-
tive victory for the home team, max
ing their record so far this year a
clean one. 1t was close and excit-
ing game throughout, and looked for
some time like Luther would lose it.
When the Western team showed up on
the diamond they looked little like
fast ball players, but they had splen-
did battery supported by good in
field. the only weak spot being at
third. The team are gentlemanly fell
lows, play fast bali, and might have
beaten Luther had it not been for a
couple of very fortunate and we'll
played combinations which Luther
were quick to accept and make good.
1t took ten innings to decide the game
and the spectators surely got their
moneys worth.

MARION GREEN AGAIN HONORED.
Has Been Engaged by the Famous Theo.
dOre Thomas Orchestra for Tour
of May Festival Concerts.

We clip the following from the Du-

the advancement that Mr.. Marion
Green has made and esteem in which
he is held by the press and public Of
Dubuque:
Mr.. Marion Green, Dubuque's we'll
known basso cantante, has been en-
gagged for tour of May festival con-
certs by the Theodore Thomas Orches-
ira, one of the greatest musical
organizations in the country. This is
an honor alike to Mr.. Green and to
Dubuque, where he was trained for the
lyric stage. He will sing the part of
Mephistoph oles in Gounod's grand
opera, Faust" and the part of Lam
grave in Wagner's opera, '"Tann-
hauser. !" While he was quite promi-
nent as singer before. his tour with
the Divide Musin company last season
brought him into still more prominent
position, and has resulted in his en-
gagement by the Thomas Ochestra.
Prof. Pontius and other Dubuque
musicians and vocalists saw that Mr..
Green has very bright future before
him. He will be in Dubuque to take
part in the May festival concerts.
