curious case Of jumping at con-
cluslons' occurred In this city recent

conscious with fatal illness. The phv-
slcian who was Immediately called in,
applied an electric current, hoping to
restore animation, and in so doing dis
colored parts of the body. The remedy
heroic though It was. failed. At the
undertaker's n number of friends OF
the deceased called to take n farewell
look. and noted the dlscoloratlon. With
out waiting to Inquire, they assumed
he had been beaten. and that the APP
pearance OF the body warranted such
assumption. So considerable talk was
started, which made it unpleasant for
all concerned. OF course the reports
started were baseless.
