The Question Which a Soldier Answered this Morning in the Negative. A'Deliberate and Determined Buicide, One of the most deliberate cases of suicide which as occurred for s lerg time past in our city, took place ye:- terday, near the government corral, the victim being Alexander Rearon, the chief bugler of the Ninzh infantry band, at Fort Omaha. It appears that on Friday he was paid oft at the fort, snd, coming to Omaha, immediately prosecded to gt ona *spree,” during which be spent sll his pay and becsme as low in spir- its as he was in pocket. About ten o'cleck yesterday be strolied down the Northwestern track to the south gate of the corral, which he wasabout to enter, when he was sccosted by John Henseman, the watchman, who ssked him whether he wished to see any one. Rearon, who Mr. Hense- man ssys locked stravge'y, replied that he did not, but asked the way to the river. He was directed to tmn to the right through the U. P. yard, after which he walked off. Mr. Henseman went in to one of the employes and told him that he was afraid from the man's action that he was sbout to commit suicide, and had bardly re- turoed to his post when he was in formed that a s-1dier had shot bimrelf just outside the gater. The body was discovered ina sittirg pesture, leaning against abosrd fence, which etands between the Union Pacific yards and the Noithwestern track. The deceared had taken a five chambercd 28 calibre revolser and plac'ng it immediately under his chin had fired, the bullet traversing through the mouth and lodgng in the brain producing instant death. When found, life was bardly extinctand the blood wes flowing from the wound and runaing from his nostrls. His right hand still grasped tenacicusly the revolver and his cyes were open. The body was removed to one of the government store rooms and Coroner Jacobs was immediately summoncd by telephone and arrived on the ground in tweuty minutes from the time of the finding of the body. An inquest was held at he corral, the following jurors beirg impannelled: John Mott, George Doane, Charles E. Squires, George Werd, Archie Gray and T. J. Msgrane. After hearing the evidence, which wes in accordsnce with the facts as above stated, the jury rendered a ver- dict that ““the deceased came to his death by a pistol shot fired by his own hande.” Tte body was enclosed inacsseand taken to Fort Omaba, where it will bo buried by his com- rades. The deceared was a fine-looking man, of medium height, well built, with dark complexion and dark hair. He had seen considerable service in the west, and was a skillful bugler. The only cause which can be assigned for the faleful act was menial des- pondency, resuliing from protracted drinkiag.

B, Knight. A Delightful Evening. The farewell complimentary hop given Monday eveningby the Pleasant Hours ¢lub to Mr. and Mrs, Frank B. Knight on their deoarture for Boston, was most successful. It seemed a8 if everybody was there and a few more. The evening was a'l that could be de- sired, cool and delightful. The toil- ettes were even more elegaut than usual, and the music (Steinbaurer’s) was rimply perfection. The supper showed the experiencedsupervision of Mr. Squires, which is ample praise, but in this instance Mr. Squires seem- ed to surpass hiwself. The programme was quite short, there being but twelve dances, but the extras brought the party far into the morning. Supper was rerved at about 11 o'clock after which General Cowin in a very appropriate way thanked Mr. Kuight in behalf of the ‘“Pleatant Hours" for his earnest and succsssful Iabors in aid of the clab, and closed by wishiog Mr. and Mrs. Knight many “*Plessant Hours.” Mr. Knight iareply made a few brief remacks as follows: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE Purasant Hours Crus:—I thaok you most heartily for this great compli- ment to Mra. Knight and myaelf—ua- deserved though it be. It is with peculiar feelings I stand bere to-night “regret at beivg obliged to sever my connection with friends go dear to me, and satisfaction in seeing such evi- dences of prosgerity in a club whose interest has always been mine, more especa'ly during the past year. Al- though the General has been rather lavish in his praises of my wanagement cf the club, 1 confess to be ga better caerer than epeaker, and will therefore not inflict myself longer upcn your good nature. 1 can only assute you that the pleas- ure of this occasion will long dwell in the memory of Mrs Knight and myself—a pleasure which 15 cnly marred by the thought of having so soon to bid you all farewell. A'l presant joined in saying that this party was one of the pleasanest of the season, and united in giviog un- limited praise to the committee,which covsisted of Major J. V. Furay, B. B. Wood, W. H.
