Suicide Before a Crowd, Chicago, April 1.—A negro on a Cottage Grove avenue street car sit ting near Mrs. Lillian Brown, seized her pocket book last night and then jumping from the car started to run. Mrs. Brown screamed, the car was stopped and the conductor and a number of passengers followed the negro. As the latter reached the entrance to an alley he saw that his escape was hopeless, and, taking a razor from his pocket, he coolly faced his pursuers and drew the blade twice across his throat. The blood spurted from the jugular yeia whica was sev- ered, and reeling for a few moments he sank in full yiew of the crowd of pursuers and died almost instantly. The man’s shirt, which was mark- ed “A. Jones”, was the only thing about him to give a hint as to his identity.

Lansing, Mich., April 2.—The su- preme court yesterday in a unani- mous opinion sustained the judgment of the Wayne circuit court declaring invalid the will of Ferdinand C. H. Rivard, who died in 1892, leaving an estate valued at nearly $500,000. He practically disinherited five of his children. It developed that after bis wife's death he was afraid of her ghost, that he made his sons and hired men sleep on the floor in his room with their guns by their sides, so they could hear the mother in case she should come, and shoot her. They say he hung sleigh bells across the windows and that he wore sum- mer clothes in winter and vice versa. “Tt is simply disgusting,” says an exchange, “to hear persons speaking scornfully cf girls who work for a living. No sensible man is dazzled by the glitter of a jeweled finger, a gold bracelet or a watch bought on “tick” perhaps. All these have not so much fascination as a pleasant disposition, a happy,intelligent face, a well cooked meal and a glistening well ironed shirt front; a dimpled and sunny face in the kitchen are worth a dozen “banged” millinery singuers in the parlor pawing ivory and screeching ‘A Flower from my Angel Mother’s Grave,’ when very likely the poor woman is hanging out the washing in the back yard.” The congregation of the Third William Jewell college. wrong to take pay for preaching.
