Ina month he gave up in He went in to enjoy life, and as he despair. She followed him to the had ample means and was a weleome guest wherever he chose to go, time slipped by pleasantly enough. Just when pretty Ellen Godwin came into his life no one ever knew. In all the fierce light that afterward beat upon them, their earlier intima- cy remained forever buried in mys- stery, and both carried the secret to their graves. Ellen Godwin lived near Louisville, and was remarkable for her beauty and the gentleness of her disposition, She was well con- nected and had a small fortune in her own name. Friends of Throck- morton saw them together for a time, and then suddenly their inti- macy was discontinued. Throck- morton left Louisville on a pleasure trip and did not return for several months. One stormy, blustering night, in January, when the snow was beating against the window panes and the people were hurrying in to blazing fires, Throckmorton returned to Louisville and went directly to the Galt House, a hotel owned by his father. When he entered his room he happened to glance across the street. He sawa woman standing motionless beside a gas lamp direct- ly opposite. She was dressed in black and although he could not see her face, he recognized the outlines of her figure. She stood there so si- lent and spectre-like that he became fascinated and watched her for clubs and receptions and opera par- ties. Wherever he was, day or night he could never look behind him with- out seeing her. He tried all the large cities of the continent without avail, and at last returned to Louis ville and again took up the old life. He used to complain that he was chained to a corpse; that his life was blasted, and that no man ever before endured such persecution. No woman would suffer his atten- tions, and he gave up all idea of marriage. He grew more and more moody, and at last he determined to rid himself of his tormentor by vio- lence.

It wasin vain that he tried to put oceans between him and his awful, phantom-like pursu- er—in vain that evety resource of money was tried; from that first stormy January night Throckmor- ton was never for one moment alone.

Jan. 1—The third murder mystery within amonth came to light to-day near Snake mines, four miles from the city, when some boys hunting in the woods found the dead body of a well dressed young man concealed in a pile of brush. He had evidently been dead several days, us decompo- sition had set in. Several pistol shot wounds were found on his hody, and a pisto! with every chamber empty was unearthed a short tance away. The coroner was noti- fied and has gone out to-night to have the Sotty brought to the city. A number of people hive siewed. baer, ren 1s, but it has not been identi fied. John Wylie, the man arrested in Atlanta on suspicion of being an ac- complice in the fiendish Hawes mur- in this city may prove an im- s if he is not iraplicat- seats, found her sane. Then the | lawyer and client were borne away by shouting thousands, and such scenes were enacted as were never before witnessed in that sombre old court room. A few months later Parsons was elected to congress be- cause of thefspeech. From the day of her acquittai Ellen Godwin never agarmfqlowed Throckmorton. He left the city, and died 24e¥ vears af- terward, alone, on his plantatioa in Mississppi, far from friends and rela- tives. After his death Ellen Godwin weaker and weaker.

She refused the offer, saying the book should be buried with her. One day she went to Cave Hill cemetery, one of the inost beautiful burying grounds in the world, just outside of Louisville, and told her sister, who had followed her through all the dreary years with a perfect devotion, that in one particular spot she wished to be buried, dressed as a bride, with the book containing all her trials and her wrongs upon her breast. A week afterwards she was laid to rest there, and a little marble slab at the head of the grave is all that tells the story of her most eventful life. dis- grew gave ed in thecrime. The cireunstances look very ugly for Wylie now, but he may be able to clear himself of suspicion. He was seen with Hawes several times just before the mur- ders were committed, and on Satur- day night before the discovery of the bodies he had no money to pay for a drink, but on the Monday fol- lowing he was seen with $100, the possession of which he explained by saying he won it playing poker.

Fort Leavenworth, Kan., Jan. 2.—Semi official advices from the Oklahoma county are to the effect that about 500 families have enter- ed the territory, but no official no- tice of an intrusion has been receiv- ed by the department commander hence no orders further than those in possession of the troops, have been issued. Should it be found necessary to enforce the directions of the president, under proclama- tion issued some two years ago it will require but.a short time to fill Oklahoma with mounted troops, as posts surrounding the much coveted land are all garrisoned with cayalry and more in number than have been stationed there for sometime. Fort Rens has four troops of the Fifth eavalry; Fort Supply, three troops of the same regiment; Fort Still, two troops of the same regiment and four of the Seventh cavalry, aud Fort Elliott, two of the Fifth caval ry. This makes fifteen troops of cavalry within easy reach of Okla- homa, while eight more troops on duty at Fort Riley could be sent there within twenty-four hours from the time the orders are issued, mak- Another Tolliver Done For.
