“ A USELESS LIFE.”
SUICIDE OF A YOUNG LADY ON WYANDOTTE
STREET —“ I DO THIS RASH ACT BE
CAUSE I AM LEADING SUCH A
USELESS LIFE.”
From the Kansas City Times.]
A singular case of suicide took place on
Wyandotte street, near Fourteenth, on
Thursday night. It was an instance where
no cause could be assigned for the terrible
act, other than pure downright ennui. A
young lady, prepossessing, intelligent and
highly educated, surrounded by a beloved
and loving father, mother, brother and
sister, and a good comfortable home, went
quietly and systematically to work and
took her own life, and went iroru this
world unbidden, uncalled.
Miss Ella Nye, the deceased, was the
daughter of Mr. Nye, furniture dealer aud
manufacturer on Eleventh street, a gen
tleman much respected in this city. She
was aged apparently about twenty or twen
ty-one years of age, was very lair ; and
wu9 a young lady of more than ordinary
abilities. About four o’clock, on Thurs
day afternoon, she left her home, which is
a neat frame cottage upon the hill south
west of Kump's brewery, and did not re
turn for nearly one hour afterward. Her
family supposed she had merely gone out
for a walk, paid little or no attention to
her absence. Nothing unusual was no
ticed about her demeanor, until about
Beven o'clock, when she called her father
iuto her room and quietly informed him
that she had taken poison. The following
note, left by her, is all the clue left to in
dicate the cause of her suicide.
“ Darling Pa : I want to tell you why I
do this rash act. Because I am living such
• a useless life. Forgive ie, precious pa.
Aud, Darling Ned, grow up and strive to
be a comfort to darling mother, pa and
sister - .”
She was evidently laboring under a se
vere fit of ennui , or “ blues,” as no other
cause can be assigned for her conduct.—
On the arrival of Dr. D. E Dickerson, she
stated to him that she had taken a tea
spoonful of arsenic. The physician then
iuformed her that she would die. She
said, in response to a question asked by
Dr. Dickerson, that sbe would like to have
her life saved ; but the poison had already
commenced to circulate in her blood, and
was then slowly doing its deadly work.
An inquest was held at the residence of
Mr. Nye, yesterday afternoon, about three
o’clock, by Coroner Bellman. This was
strenuously objected to by the parents of
the deceased, but it could not be avoided.
The cerpse looked very beautiful even in
death. It was lying in a neat casket
ready for shipment east, when the jury
was convened. Only three witnesses were
examined, the members of the family
being excused by the jury from testifying.
Mrs. Ella Phillips was the first wituess
examined. She stated that she was sum
moned to the beside of the deceased about
seven o’clock on Thursday evening. She
found her very sick, and asked her why
she had taken the poison. She responded
by saying she thought she was leading a
very useless life, and could be spared.
Sbe appeared to be very anxious abeut her
parents, and thought she would be better
upon the following day. She died about
twenty minutes to eight the next morning.
Dr. A. G. Marsh, druggist, on Main st.,
between Fourteenth and Fifteenth, Btated
on oath that the young lady called at his
store about[halfjpast three er four o’clock,
on Thursday evening, and asked for ten
cents worth of arsenic. He inquired of
her what use she had for the poison. She
replied that it was to poison rats with.
She appeared to be very calm and lady
like. He put up about one ounce of arse
nic in two envelopes, and labeled them
"Arsenic—Poison.” He then handed the
package to her, bidding her to be cautious
how she used it, lest some children might
become possessed of portions of it. She
promised to be careful, bade Dr. Marsh
good eveing and departed.
Dr. D. E. Dickerson testified that he
had been called upon about half past seven
o’clock, on the previous evening,and found
the deceased laboring under all the symp
toms of one who had taken corrosive poi
son, vomiting and in great pain. She told
him that she had taken about one tea
spoonful and a half of arsenic about four
o’clock in the afternoon. He then inform
ed her that she must die, and asked her if
she would like to recover. She said she
would. She might have been saved if she
had given notice of her action before the
poison had become circulated in her sys
tem. She gradually expired fiom that
time, and ceased to breathe between seven
and eight o’clock the next morning.
After hearing the above evidence, the
jury rendered the following verdict:
“ We, the jurors, render as our verdict,
that the deceased came to her death by
poison administered by her own hand.”
The body was then boxed up in an out
side case and sent East for interment,
leaving on the evening train in care of
friends.
They tell of a wealthy citizen of Prov
idence who did not reward an honest
brakeinan for sending back bis satchel
containing $20,000 which he had careless
ly left in the car, bat on the contrary,
scolded him for keeping it until he called
for it, thus saving him the expense of
twenty-five cents for expressage.

French Incomes,
HOW FRENCHMEN LIVE.
When a Frenchman in a cafe, puts two
of the little slabs of while sugar iu Ids
coffee and the remaining two iu his pock
et, it is not meanness but economy. The
four consecrated to the demitassee are paid
for, and the purchaser may entry them
home *o the canary bird, present them to
the children of the concierge us a menus
of maintaining pleasant relations with that
person, or keep them for eau sucree. Life
is not large, as that in the Uuited Statos,
where there is elasticity in the incomes.
Here they are fixed—so much a year, a
mouth and day. The line about the budget
uf expense is rigid, especially in the case
of small rentiers, who abound in France.
The man of three thousand francs a
year rides on the top of the ©ninibus for
three sous ; reads the paper in one of the
small reading rooms for four sous; smokes
one or two sous’ worth of Caporsl tobacco
a day in a pipe ; goes to the theatre once
a week for three to five francs, and to the
cafe chante once or twice, where his con
sommoation costs him ten sous each time
lie eats two-franc dinners, followed by that
indispensable black coffee for six sous,
With one or two sous gratuitie, at one of
the second class cafes. The chief part of
of his "time he strolls on the boulevards,
looking in at the windows or the people—
never falling, under any circumstances, to
admire a pretty woman —and iu sitting in
public gardens, all of which is gratuitous
pleasure.
The man of 5,000 francs enlarges this
programme, but the bachelor of 12,(100
wants for nothing. This sum means
a snug little apartment of two pieces ou a
street running to one of the favorite boule
vards, with pallisandre furniture, each
room under the glamour of oue color—
pale rose, sunset beams, azure sky, or what
hot; some good books, a few fine engrav
ings, perhaps a moderate good oil picture,
a bit of bric-a-brac in the way of bronze
and porcelain ; a breakfast of throe or four
francs, and a dinner of five to ten francs
at the Cafe Ilicbe, Vochette, or the clubs ;
cabs, theatres, Bois de Boulogne and kid
gloves at discretion. This is the defini
tion of 12,000 francs—for a bachelor.
Twenty-five thousand, for a bachelor, is an
apartment in the Boulevard Malcslierbe,
an second, with a cook and a man servant,
a horse and coupe, a box at the French
Opera, breakfasts at home and dinners nt
the Imperial or Jockey Club; the dwell
ing consisting of five pieces, with objects
of arts, one or two of some value. Fifty
thousand represents an apartment au pre
mier, with horse, carriage, valet, footman,
cordon bleu, a wine cellar, a box at the
Italian Opera, dinners at home, with
friends to eat them, the usual art bibelots,
a small gallery of paintings and a good
library; everything man requires iu
bachelorhood. If any of these single men
were doubled with a wife, the expenses
would be trebled, perhaps more, the wants
of woman being an unknown quantity.
The man of 40,000 would have to live at
least like him of 35,000, and he in turn
like him of 10,000, which, according to
Frenchmen, is the explanation and the
justification of the dowry system which
prevails in France. Views Abroad, by
Albert Rhodes, in March Galaxy.
SEKIOUS COMEDY.
Children have of late years been play
ing a good deal attlio very serious comedy
of suicide. Something goes wrong with
them in the household ; they are punished
they are denied some pleasure ; they do
not like the kind of work they have to do
and they apply to a pistol or a rope or a
knife, as most convenient for relief, and
that's the end of them. Easton, Pa., furn
ishes the last case of infantile sucide.
Clarence Cole was fifteen years of age
when he was found dead, by hanging in
the loft of his father’s house. The coro
ner’s jury declared by their verdict that
the boy came to his death by accident;
that is, he was playing hanging with the
rope around his neck, and accidentally
hung in earnest. The family and neigh
bors know better. The boy was requirrd
to do the washing on Mondays, and the
ironing on Saturdays, and wash the dishes
and make up the beds, and sweep, and
cook,and scrub every day between whiles.
lie felt his* degradation to iwoman’s
sphere, and put an end to his career of
house drudge. After his last day’s wash
ing, ho carried the clothes to the garret
and hung them up to dry. He then cut a
piece from one of tha clothes lines and put
it over a rafter and hung himself up to
die. The people who are aware of the
boy’s mode of life, and his distaste for it,
refuse to believe that there was any acci
dent about the firm intention of his hang
ing up. Boys will ha boys, and you can’t
make housemaids of them. They have
heard too many women talk about their
oppressed condition and mental duties to
allow themselves to be so degraded when
there is a rope and a rafter within reach.
A Lock Haven Penn., inan found out
the other day that wasps can't be frozen
to death. He found a nest, which, to all
appearances, were in that condition, and
jokingly tossed them over to a friend, the
friend returned them in the same way.but
unfortunately one of the insects fell down
the back of his neck, and in a few min
utes that unfortunate Lock Haven man
was frantically trying to get from inside
his shirt. He said one foot of the little
“ varmint ” was altogether too “ hot ” for
comfort.
The attempt of the theatre managers in
New York to abolish bill boards was a
failure. Two of them put out bigger pos
ters than ever, and thus forced the others
back to the old system.
AtHauston, Michigan, last week, a gen
tleman felt a bite while fishing. Upon
jerking his pole, he was rewarded by a
sturgeon eight feet long and weighing 185
pounds. • -t y '

THE PREMIUM WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONBOK ADVKBTTBBK
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than uht other journal published in the
country; It is, therefore, ths best medium of
communication with the planting interests.
We will be happy at any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who read
their cards In The Advertiser. In feet, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of all
othe- Journals In which they are represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and Is therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVBHTIBEMENTB.
No advertisements are admitted whisht are
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will be
safe In ordering them from any distance. To
onr readers, the fact of its appearance here has
all the weight of endorseinmt and authority.
