DRIVEN TO SUICIDE BY A LETTER RECRIVED PROM TUE MAN SHE LOVED. A dispatch from Pottsville, Pa., says: Miss Ella Reed, a resident of Shenandoah, Pa., committed suicide by hanging herself in the attic of her mother’s house Thursday night’ The reason as- signed 1s melancholy, brought on by an unfortu- nate love affair. She was an estimable young lady of about twenty years, and was a social favorite. Mrs Reed says that about six months ago Ella began a co nee with a gentleman, and roluces the fo letter, which in all proba- lity iniuced her to commit the act. It is dated | Shenandoah: “My Dear Eta:—Your letter was received in due ume. I am sorry that you look upoa things in such a way. I would marry you if I could, but there are obstacles in the Way that you don’t dream of. Besides, what 4s there in marriage? We can go away, and who will know that we are not what we seein? Now, Indeed Itest_ your love for me. It was not an idle whim that first induced me to write to you—rather a Rosttive feeling of a love | strong and yet tender. You write to me at the address given in the other letter and make me miserable or supremely happy. Dearest, 1¢ 1s for you to decide. Believe me, I am yours, ever lov- ingly, Frank H. Brownson.” ‘There was also a postscript, made up of endear- ing titles and words, but all lo the one end. Miss Eila decided that it _ was far better to kill herself than accept the disgraceful proposal of her lover. | Brownson is unknown to the Reed family. No | such person 1s known at Shenandoah or anywhere in that Vicinity, and itis probable that the letter was deted Shenandoah with a view to mislead ts unfortunate recipient.

As soon as the shot is fired the paddler catches the alligator by the jaws, which he holds together with one hand while he cleaves the skull open with his hatchet. Sometimes the alligators retain considerable | power of action. When such is the case, it is rather exciting work getting them into the boat. Sometimes very large alligators tarn the boat over.

From the Correspondence Pall Mall Gazette, Now, to my mind the dress, not of the time of William the Conqueror, or of the seventeenth century, but of just 100 years ago, was the most suitable and mostly manly that was ever worn by the male population of ‘these islands. By re- verting to it, we should get rid of two incon- venient and ugly portions of our present attire— namely, the cylindrical hat and the almost equally cylindrical trouser. The man of to day Is too cylindrical altogether to ‘be a satisfactory object to himself or to artists. That a hat (to say nothing of its shape) should be made of a delicate material,which requires to be carefaily tected from the weather and ironed and shed If rained upon, is clearly ridiculous; that a man’s jegs, in this moist and muddy climate, should be clothed in tubes of cloth which reach to his heeis and torm able conductors of mud and dirt, both inside and outside, is equally so.
