The woman is beautiful, and as she lay in the bed her “palo face scemed to take on an expres. on of innocence which under tho circumstances was beautiful to bohold. At her sido the im becile who had ruined himself and tho woman he had just married lay. His face, though pale, was bloated. Marks of dissipation were clearly legible, and as the doctors rolled the man and womun about on the bed every fow minutes n fant groan would pass his fips. All through Wednesday night attendants were called in and thoy took moving the inanimate bodics to keep up a rospiration. It is pretty well settled that has been a morphine cater.

A change for the worse came over Mrs. Whitely after 6 o’clock lust night, and at 8:25 o'clock she breathed her last, death being painless. Whitely died at 10:10 o'clock.
