iu Dead Earnest His Evil Works

Dr. .J. ')wrsle.v. e.\ triisti'eol Frank lir: t''W!ishi[i. a man with the required ui-rve and corruptness of mind to take advantage of his profession, a man like •many others who has been honeyed by the people, giving him icense to inere.»so his secret and dastardly business, uo'.v comes in for his share of newspaper comment. The Doctor has been a dead arne masher, although he had a family of his own and living witli him or lie with them at Darlington. Several times has he stirred up hornets' neBts by tiis unbecoming conduct, ar.d each time was the dear protecting arms of some one thrown a'out his carcass and he sailed on smoother than ever His antics have heei before tlie people before in a verbal manner, but this time we are warranted to give iiis case a black and white de scription.

He iiad been administering medicine and smiles for some time upon Mis6 Bertha Wilson, a pretty uirl of his vilJaiit. and during the progress of his attendance upon .Miss Wilson he grew unsparingK- intimate. This weakness of-the .good doctor was plainly noticed but like the immortal Anarchist he neither careo or pretended to. Over a week ago rumor came down from the scene of love and .corruption and informed us that a tragedy was prevented, only by mere luck, at that place one evening, but ihe same rumor refused to make known the details regarding it in a perfect measure, nevertheless we were given bread to chew in order to discover how it would settle on the stomach. The scrap was between Dr. ')weley and the justly aniiry father of the girl, who is Jabe/. Wilson. The old man was too good a citizen to shoot, yet he went there to the ollice of the good docti.r with that express purpose and came away wi

his duty left undone.

Both drew weapons and both took down. Dr. Owsley refused to cease hie intimacy with the young lady and kindly informed her father to that effect, stating as he so did, that he greatly admired tier.

The enraged father's mission to the doctor's otlice was prompted by the fact that the girl had gone to Frankfort several days before and without taking proper leave. She returned home Saturday night ar proceeded to the doctor's residence, which is a tine one. and without any of the required courtesies of a miller, she burst into the door and went straightway to where M. D. was seated with

Going up to him she began the tomary caresses upon him and in a state of embarrassment he left the house. His wife then took a hand and read tlie riot act to the maiden and she likewise responded in clear, convincing tones until a regular battle was almost a necessity.

The.M.D. returned soon whereupon his lady love. No |?i drew a deadly revolver upon him making it essential that he should wrench it away from her before any damage was done. This he did and tlm wronged young woman was taken by the town marshal. who had been summoned, and placed on boaid the norlii bound train. The doctor then took a drop oritu himself and

The little episode has created tl greatest kind of a sensation around Darlington and more trouble is likely 111 follow.

Young Wilson in a fit o!'Jealousy Ends His Life.

()n Monday morniriir Coroner Bareus was called to New Kichmond to investigate the death of" one of its most popular and enterprising young man, F.dwanl Wilson, who had ended I.is own life Sunday night by taking morphine. oung Wilson was just about of age and was engaged as a clerk in the Hollina Drug store. He was an exemplary young man in all respects and was possessed of several pieces of property around New Kichmond. Love seems to hare been his fate ai that young iife. so promising ami full of vigor ami ambition now rests with its maker. For sometime Kd had been paying attention to a Miss Bertha Pritchard of the same place and who assisted her brother in the bank. 'I hey were engaged to be married and preparations were being made with that point in view, the marriage to occur Sunday. However Miss Pritchard indiscretely permitted calls

of the wedding and this great.v worked upon the young man's mind.they indulired in several love quarrels, but ail was made up and they came to Crawfordsviilo several weeks ago and purchased all the necessary household effects. On the Thursday preceding ilson'sself destruction, tout Clark the tailor, was in New Kichmond and having made several previous calls upon the young lady, did so in that instance and also engag-V ed her company from church that even ing. This the young lady allowed and accompanied Clark from the services. That set the young man back harder than ever, causing them to have another quarrel. And on the night of his death he had celled upon Miss Pritchard. but it was not learned as to whether all was at peace or not. Wilson however returned to nis room and after writing a letter of explanation to his mother administered to himself a death sized dose of morphine and entered into a sleep from which he will never awaken on earth. It is particularly distressing that he should have been the victim o£ hie own designs, for all that knew him had naught but words of praise to utter for lnin. while his future was most promising The wedding ceremony was have occured on tomorrow night had not this rash act ended all. From his inquest the Coroner ascertained that ilsnn was very melancholly and given to jealousy whim on the other hand the young lady acted unwisely. The funeral occurred on Tuesday and was very largely attended.
