M Josephine Eppley, an inmate of the In sane ..syluni, was missed at dinner time yegteriy. and a search was at once begun for her. About half past. 2 o’clock her body was found in Kagle creek, just below the National road, and it was evident that she hod been dead som* hours. It was only partially clothed, for th* •Miter garments and shoes had been carfnlly re moved and left upon the bank. Miss Epple;. was twenty five years old. .She was sent to th* asylum from h**r home in Republican township Jefferson county, on the 6th of las' June, she having been a sufferer froi: chronic melancholia for over ten yeArs. She waa remarkably well behaved patieut, and was al lowed the freedom of the grounds. Lately, how ever, on account of the bad weather, she was par tially kept indoors, and she became the more despondent b* <-ause Dr. Fletcher had said that he washing to send her back to her home. She had frei±iuntly threatened suicide, and only las’ week shfvr‘?nt an anonymous note to one of th attendant**, telling him that a woman in his wan was going to kill herself, and concluding: "May be you think I am not going to attend to m\ own Among her effects yesterday wa*found thy following letter, which gives a patheti' account of hei sorrows and sufferings. “My life has been a failure-a vain struggle My condition of health is such that life ig unbear able.

THE FIGHT FOR SPOILS. The Scramble for the Speakership of the House—Willing to Serve the Country. Among the Democratic politicians who were attracted to the capital yesterday by the meet ing of the presidential electors wero several of the many candidates who will besiege and beseech the General Assembly lor the offices at its disposal. Charles L. Jewett, of New Albany, who is one of the most prominent young Democrats in the State, has been in the city since Tuesday, and is doing very effective “wire working” on his candidacy for the speakership. He is developing quite a boom, and says that he hs been given unexpected assurances of support There is a strong tight being made against him, but his friends are very confident of his election. Bam Williams, of Vincennes, was also circulating among the politicians during yesterday. He wants to be Speaker, and, as he comes from the Southern half of the State, he is forced to make his fight chiefly against Jewett, who lives in the adjoining congressional district. David S. Gooding, of Hancock county, who is regarded as rather a formidable candidate for the speakership, spends much of his time in the city. The older politicians with whom Gooding has worked strongly favor him. Hugh McMullen, of Dearborn county, is again a candidate for the speakership, but the report that Moody is in the contest this time is contradicted. Jewett claims to have received a letter from him, in which he states positively that he is not a candidate. W. W. Browning, the representative from Brown county, has announced himself as a candidate for the speakership, but his boom is rather an incipient one. A. J. Kelley, of Terre Haute, is again a candidate for the position of secretary of the Senate, hut he will have a very formidable opponent in the person of Joseph W. Riley, the secretary of the Democratic State central committee, who is favored by the politicians of influence, and has stronger claims than any other person that can be urged. There are one or more aspirants for assistant secretary from every congressional district in the State, but the only one in the city is Crawley, of Sullivan. A. B. Crompton, of Delphi, wants to be door keeper of the Senate, and is hard at work fixing things for the election. The Various Amusements. Th© engagements of “La Charbonniere” a* the Grand, and Helen Sedgewiek at English’s, concluded last night, and neither was largely attended. To-night, at the last named place, Miss Lillian Olcott, a recent candidate for histrionic honors, will appear in “Romeo and Juliet.” She is said to be talented and well supported. At the Grand. Jacques Kruger, one of the best eccentric comedians before the public, will appear in the popular musical extravaganza, “Dreams, or Fun in a Photograph Gallery.” He has a number of clever people with him, and the ad vance sale is good. Th© chicken with a human head and other curiosities and excellent stage performance are drawing large crowds at the Monarch Museum both afternoon and evening. All the rinks are having fair patronage and giving extra attractions several times a week. Prof. Agenton, at the Meridian, is the best skater ever seen in this city. Dominick McCaffrey, the noted pugilist, and a company of boxers and wrestlers, which includes t Joorge Rooke. Dick Yarwood, Dan Doherty, Patsy Leonard, John Kelly and others, are in the city, and will give exhibitions at the Zoo Theater, in addition to the regular performance there, on Saturday afternoon and evening. There will be no advance in prices.
