lor GO years of age, was found dead

well-to.do farmer. County Coroner
Conwell was called late Saturday
evening but did not make the trip I'M
til Yesterday, owing to the distance,
which is twenty-five miles directly

Jury was empanneled for an inquest,
as a case of premeditated suicide was
plainly evident from his own handwrit-
ing before accomplishing selfdestruc-
ton, and that given by several old

foul play theory. 1t is stated by the
neighbors, and especially Hans Han
sen, with whom he boarded, and by
C. A. Carpenter and Henry Becht,
that he was undoubtedly mentally un'
balanced. This became more in evil
dence since he sold his last years
crop OF corn on october 5, as the price
was not up to his expectation, and 50
stated several times to these men. He
also talked of suicide at different
times.

man found $4S.35 in silver and cur
rency on his person, and also pass
book on the Security bank of Creigh
TON. which showed a deposit of S475
the last deposit being on Wednesday
october g. of 5000, which money he
received from selling old corn. In the
