DEATH A MYSTERY.
Friends of G. A. Parker at a Loss to
Explain the Cause of His Death.


Cincinnati, O., Nov. 19.-Much
mystery is attached to the sudden
death of c. A. Parker, vice president
of the Pere Marquette and the Cincin-
natl Hamilton & Dayton. He had
been respondent since the suicide of
his son in st. Louis, about six months
ago, and it is stated he had been more
or less worried over the rumors of the
sale of the road to the Erie, and the
probability that he would lose his posi-
ton should the deal go through. His
death was said to have been due to
apoplexy, but the coroner has found
no evidence of, it, and may order a
post mortem. A singular fact is that
value from his clothing evidently Just
before his death and locked it up in
his private box. When the pockets
were turned out it was found that he
had but 35 cents and a pocket knife
in them, besides which there was only
one other article of value upon his
person, a gold ring on his finger
search of Mr.. Parker's desk disclosed
all his valuableS in a private box His
private papers, memoranda, watch,
pocketbook, keys and money were all
found neatly placed in this box, where
they had been carefully laid.
Two physicians who were called to
attend him and who arrived just be-
fore he breathed his last, declare thew
made no examination which would
tend to show them the cause of death.
while Coroner Weaver is also at a
loss to know the cause of his death
DR.. Joseph Eichberg stated there was
no evidence that would point to sui
eide, and that Mr.. Parker's death
probably was due to a heart attack.

Cecil Huff Improving.

Wichita, Kas., Nov. 19.-J. M. Huff,
engineer on the Santa Fe, has received
a letter from his son, Cecil J. Huff, at
San Francisco, stating that he was
able to leave the hospital and would
return to work soon. Cecil hurt his
hand in Wichita about a year ago and
blood poison set in. He went to San
Francisco for the WeIls-Fargo Ex-

been making inquiries regarding
postal rates and equipment for postal
cars. The new time card will likely
affect other roads in this city, as the
rivalry between the "Katy'' and the
other lines is pretty sharp.

George Gould Much Affected.

New York, Nov. 19.-When Mr..
George ]. Gould arrived here on his
special train, accompanying Edward
Burns, his gamekeeper, whom he ac-
cidentally shot while hunting near his
preserves at High Point, N. c., he was
doub1y depressed. Hardly had he left
the train when he heard of the mys-
ferrous death in Cincinnati of Charles
A. Parker, for many years one of the
mast valued traffic officials on the
Gould system. Mr.. Gould was visibly
affected when he received the news of
Mr.. Parker's death. In many of the
inspection tours which Mr.. Gould
made over his road he was accom-
panied by Mr.. Parker. The circum-
stances underlying the death of Mr.
Parker are SO mysterious that the
coroner of Cincinnati has started a
thorough investigation.

ST LOUIS. Mo, April 21.-Mrs. Mar

clined to write the story, preferring
not to appear as her own heroine.
Mrs. Hrinard was known in Bunker
Hill as Miss Martha Wulf. AS editor
OF the weekly paper she was supposed
to know the probabilities OF any citi-
zens for romance. But one item es-
capped her.
1t was report told by a drummer OF
wedding in northern Illinois town,
iii which Bunker Hin girl was the
bride. The wedding. he said, was to
be kept a secret, and Hansen's look
through the files convinced him that
the secret had been kept.
The names had beeni forgotten, but
the drn,ur0er remembered March and
Havana, al. Hansen gave his assistant
the information and asked her to ferret
out the story for next week. Ten
minutes later she presented Ter reSigna-
ton, accompanied by a formal an
