told, half in jest, they might have
the hen house. To the surprise of
the owner, the offer was accepted and

to be an industrious woman, but is

could rise to delicacy when 1t suited
his purpose.
After this episode Jack paid fre.
quent visits at the Oxfords' house

an impromptu fashion, that left his
wife waiting for him an hour in vain
before she dared sit down to the
| spoiled meal at home.
But IL these absences were never

account of them, she never reproached
her husband. On the contrary, she
encouraged his friendship with Miss
| Oxford and resolutely struggled
against any feelings of jealousy
trusting implicitly in his honor.
Jack was careful not to repeat the
blunder that had once led to an un
pleasant scene, but he often talked
about the great resemblance Of Mis-!

Suicide With Hat Pin.

York.-Coroner DeHon and DR..
Frank Horning have decided that
Oscar L. Young, 23 years old, of
Hallan, took his life by stabbing
hatpin, which he secured from a bu-
reau in his room, into his breast a
half dozen times until it penetrated
his heart and caused his death The
young man was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. William II. Young. Several
weeks ago he was taken sick with
typhoid fever. At times he has been
delirious. Wednesday night his
mother went to his room and he told
her that he wanted her to return
downstairs so that he could sleep.
A short time afterward she went to
the room again, where she found him
stretched across the bed bleeding
from the wounds in his chest
