SATURDAY, APRTL 2"), 1891.

"I WISH I WAS DEAD."

The Language of Oharhs Uockafair Befoie Kemoving Himself From This Wicked World.

Charles Cockafair killed himself Saturday evening about 0 o'clock. He. together with some companions, had been painting Cruwfonl.sville all day. At 5 o'clock, accompanied by Warn Hipes, he boarded /the train for his home at Mace. On the walk over from Lynnsburg to Mace he hung back and several times suggested that his friend go ahead and leave him to sleep awhile in the woods. Hipes, however, suspected the purpose of these ruses was suicide, so he urged Cockafair on and saw him safely to his yard. Here Mrs, Cockafair met them and Hipes went on Cockafair was still under the influence of liquor somewhat, but ho was sober enough to be perfectly disgusted with himself, and said to his wife, "I wish I was dead. I'm trouble to you, of no account to myself or anybody else, and besides I have run through with all your property." "Well if I ain't mourning over it, you oughtn't," said the wife anxious to console lier discouraged husband.

He passed into the house and a moment later a pistol shot was heard. Mrs. Cockafair suspecting the worst, rushed in and found her husband lying on the bed apparently in no pain. He evedently thought he had not struck a vital part for he interupted the moanings of his wife with the remark that he would give $500 if he was dead. But his aim had been too true and in ten minutes he was a corpse. The ball entered one inch above the left nipple and passed entirely through the body just above the heart. The weapon was a Smith & Wesson revolver, number 38, which he always carried with him. He was head-sawyer at the Mace saw mill but was in the habit of drinking and gambling. His wife is the daughter of the late Thomas Mason and when he married her she had sixty acres of land and some money. He was thirty six years old and besides his wife leaves a boy seven years old. The funeral occurred at 10 o'clock this morning and will be conducted by Rev. Mr. Bowman. Interment at the Odd Fellows cemetery, Crawfordsville.

FULLER PABTICTTLAKS.

THE JOURNAL'S correspondent at Mace gives the following particulars of the suicide: Tlie deceased had attended the horse show at Crawfordsville with several other young men from here. While there he drank considerable, (unusual for him,) becoming intoxicated and somewhat noisy on the street, his friends finally succeeded in getting him aboard the train for home, accompanied by San ford Hipes, who had no trouble with him while on the train or at the station three-fourths of mile south of Mace, but about halfway between Mace and Linnsburg he wanted to go over in the woods and stop, insisting that young Hipes should leave him and go home. Hipds would not agree to leave him, but by insisting he should come on home, Cockafair finally came with him. On arriving at home he said to his wife, "Oh I am so sick. Can't you live without me. I am no good. You must live without me." His wife told him not to talk that way, to go and lay down, he would soon feel better. He went in a small bed room, lying down on a folding lounge. Just at that time Mrs. Shepherd came to the fence and called Mrs. Cockefair to the front gate. Just as his wife stepped out of the house, Charlie drew his revolver, placiiig the muzzle against his left breast below the nipple and fired, the ball passing clear through him, lodging in the bedding. Dr. Trembly was called, but could do nothing. He lived about thirty minutes. Coroner Bronaugh was called,viewed the remains and collected evidence as far as known as to the cause, which was supposed to be remorse of concience for giving way to appetite and becoming intoxicated and appearing in his wife's presence in that condition. He leaves a wife and one child about 10 years of age. His parents reside in Crawfordsville, also one sister, Mrs. Marks.

FATALLY INJURED.

Im,tle Hmry Moran Has His Head CrushBy a Big Four Train. Last Tuesday about nine o'clock little Harry Moran, aged about eleven, met with a fatal accident near the Big Four freight depot. He has been in the habit of riding on the cars and this morning when the local freight came gliding in the lad made a dive at it and started to climb up between the cars. Just how it happened will never be known but young Harry fell and when assistance arrived lay by the side of the track with his head crushed in. His head was caught between the wheel and the train had to be backed before he could be released. Drs. Jones and Ensminger were summoned and the boy taken from the freight depot to the house of Frank Birchfield near by. The case was pronounced fatal from the first and death is only the question of a few hours or a day or two. The skull is crushed like an egg shell rendering recovery impossible. The boy is a son of the late Peter Moran and his mother resides in the east end with several small children.

A Broken Arm.

The citizens of Hillsboro were visited Monday by a poor lad with a broken arm who was walking through to his home in Peoria, 111. They subscribed $5.75 for his benefit and while he waited for the train called up Dr. Stout to examine his arm and see if it was set properly. The lad demurred and they becoming suspicious forced him to let it be examined. It was found to be in perfect condiiton and the §5.75 was taken back and the lad trotted out of town in no time.

KOCH'S LYMPH.

Dr. J. M, Diunen Has Faith in Its Efficacy and Speaks From Personal Observation. Dr. J. M. Dinnen, of Ft. Wayne, and brother of Father Dinnen of this city, left two months ago op a visit to Berlin for the express purpose of making a personal investigation of the merits Koch's lymph. He returned last Friday niglit and in an interesting interview with the Ft. Wayne Jou nutl gives his opinion: "Yes," said he. "I enjoyed the trip hugely and profited by it as well, doing over I was dreadfully sea-.sick, but returning 1 enjoyed the voyage immensely." "You want my opinion of Koch's lymph? Well, I will tell you. My letters gave me an audience with Y. Gossler, the German minister of medical affairs, and from him I received a letter endorsed by the war department, admitting me to all the military hospitals of the empire as well as the Royal charity hospital of Berlin. I studied the Koch treatment especially and am entirely convinced that it possesses all the virtues claimed for it. At the hospital in Morbit, Berlin, I saw 1,200 patients under treatment, and the good effects of the lymph was marked, because for a time I studied a dozen different cases closely, and was permitted on one occasion to administer the injection myself." "I spent an evening with Prof. Yirchow and with him visited his pathological Jmuseum, the finest in the world." "I attended a meeting of the Berlin Medical Society, and by the aid of an interpreter got the silent points of a number of papers on tuberculosis. At Leipsic I met Prof. Tiersch at St. Martin's hospital, and at Dresden and Milan I visited the hospitals. Every where Dr. Koch's lymph is used and its merits are practically established and recognized." "Through the kindness of Dr. Gualidy I got into the Clinica Medica institute at Rome and saw a number of lupus cases. They are photographed daily from the first injection of the lymph anil it was an easy matter to note the new development of the treatment." "Before closing I want to say that the German hospitals are the finest in the world. They are all built on the cottage plan, and in cleanliness, excellence and management, from a civil and sanitary point of view, the hospitals of Bome, Milan, Paris or London suffer from comparison.

He was at the Vatican to receive the blessing of the Pope and attend his mass. Afterward he went to Paris,London,and then to Ireland where he invested in a bundle of black thorns and other mementos for his friends.

The doctor is thoroughly equipped to test the Koch lymph and his operations will no doubt be heard from favorably.

To Benefit the High Schools. The division of the County Board of Education which was recently made by Superintendent Zuck promises to bo of material benefit all around. The board for the county schools meets next Friday and will consult the interest of tho county schools.

On next Monday the town board will meet and discuss several important questions. Prof. Warfel, of Ladoga, Prof. Harwood, of Attica, Prof. Wellington and some other educators of note will also be present. The chief question which will come before the meeting will be the systemization of the several high schools in the county. At present Crawfordsville has a four years and some of the other towns three, some a two and some a one year's course, owing to the number of pupils entering. Of course according to this no two high schools in the county have the same course. Studies which are pursued in senior here are taken up first thing in other schools and vice versa. A number of pupils who finish the course in tho smaller towns of the county would like to finish the course in the Crawfordsville school but are unable to do so as they would be perfectly irregular on entering here. It will be attempted to arrange the courses in tho various schools -on exactly the same basis, so that a pupil finishing the third year i't Ladoga, for example, could be admitt*-- to the fourth year here on a certificate. f~lit is to be hoped that the arrangement can be made as it would greatly add to the number in the upper classes of the city schools and be a benefit to the pupils of the other high schohls of the county who desire a longer course than they can get at home.

The Athenian Elects Officers. The subject of the Athenian which met at the residence of Mrs. D. H. Jackson Monday afternoon was "Reviews of Recent Fiction." A pajier prepared by Miss Mary Binford, of Oberlin College, on "Ccesar's Column, a novel by Ignatius Donnelly," was read by Miss Evangeline Binford. Miss Mary Campbell reviewed George Meredith's novel, "The Ordeal of Richard Peverill," after which a general discussion followed. Officers were then elected for the next year as follows: Mrs. R. E. Bryant, President Mrs. T. H. B. McCain, Vice President Mrs. E. H. Cowan, Second Vice President Mrs. D. H. Jackson, Secretary Mrs. C. L. Thomas, Treasurer Miss Carrie Krout, Miss Kate Snyder and Mrs. C. L. Thomas, Membership Committee. On account of the sickness of her husband Mrs. E. B. Thomson resigned her position as delegate to the union of women's clubs and was succeeded by Mrs. C. P. Doney.

Progress.

It is very important in this age of vast material progress that a remedy be pleasing to the taste and to tho eye, easily taken, acceptable to the stomach and healthy in its nature and effects. Possessing these qualities, Syrup of Figs is the one perfect laxative and most gentle diuretic known.

A young girl here had been suffering for 12 years with blood diseases until she had lost the use of her limbs and was subject to many troubles incident to the disease. The physicians declared her case incurable and predicted that her life would come to a speedy end. After taking S. S. S. she recuperated so fast that it was plain that she had obtained a new lease on Hfe, and she has continued to g, j\v better until her permanent cure is assured. Many other pa. tients in our hospital have obtained signal benefit from S. S. S., and it has become quite a favorite in our house.
