Last Tuesday afternoon Morton L. Collins was foand sitting in a chair in his store at Twenty-fifth and Main streets, gasping for breath, and a minute later died. In one hand was a revolver, and an examination showed that deceased had shot himself in the left breast, the ball entering two inches beU,w the nipple, passing between the fourth and fifth ribs, aud causing death almost instantaneously. The shot was heard by several, but as shots have not been uncommon in that locality no heed was paid to it. However, a very few minutes later Mrs. Wyeth, a daughter of the deceased, ent 3red the store and found her father as described. The pistol, which was st'U clutched in his band, waa of the bulldog pattern, 38 caliber and self-acting one side of it had just been polished, and beside the dead man lay a piece of sand paper, showing that he had been cleaning it and that the shooting must haye been accidental.

Charles Rugan Peddle died at his home in this city at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, surrounded by the members of his family, and sincerely mourned by the community, who knew him and appreciated his sterling worth. His illness covered a period of several weeks, and in its earlier stages, owing to bis, strong constitution, no alarm was felt. Last Saturday, however, the brain trouble with which he was afflicted took a more serious turn and his life slowly ebbed away until the last spark went out ©n Wednesday afternoou. For a time his suffering was intense, but unconsciousness fiually came to his relief and the end was painless. Mr. Peddle was born in Philadelphia, Penn., Oulobor 5, 1820, and was of English ancestry —Friends, who settled in Pennsylvania uvtder the leadership of William Penn. He had dxcellenteducational advantages of which ho availed himself, his acquirements in that direction being of tho most substantial sort. He commenced his career of mechanical engineer as an apprentice in the machine shops of Norris fe Son, in Philadelphia. From there he wont to Reading, Pa., and in 1818 accepted a position on Indiana's first railroad, that from Midison to Indis^pT While a residont of Mad Miss Elizabeth Mark, city in 1804, leaving four flTlK. -. liam Henry Peddle, of New N. J., superintendent of the New Jersey Central railroad, Mrs. Sarah P. Burton, Charles R. Peddle, jr., and Mrs. Elizabeth Ames. In 1867 Mr. Peddle married Miss Mary Ball, daughtor of Dr. E. V. Ball, one of the pioneer settlers of the Wabash valley aud one of the fo.-omoit citizens of Terre Haute. To them were born four children, John B. Peddle, a graduate of the Rose Polytechnic Institute and now connected with the Worthington Hydraulic Company, Brooklyn, N. Y., and Misses Caroline Cheqver, Mary and Margaret Peddle. Two brothers of the deceased llvo in Philadelphia. Mr. Peddle came to this city in 1851 as master mechanic of the Terre Haute ft Richmond railroad, then in course of construction. Afterwards he became superintendent of motive power and purchasing agent for the two divisions of the" Yandalla line and then superintendent, a position whioh he resigned in 1871. Afterwards the position of purchasing ageut was established, whioh he held until the time of his death. The deceased was for many years a familiar figure in business, churoh, educational, literary and social circles. His miud was one of the clearest and most active, his industry something wonderful, and his integrity a model whioh any man oan follow with pride. He was a man who cared nothing for political distinction, though be served one term in the oouncil, but declined to be a candidate for mayor. He was one of the board of trustees of Rose Polytechnic, and its secretary since the death of the late Samuel S. Early. He was a man who to know was to love and respect a good citizen, a christian gentleman, and one who can very poorly be spared from any eommunity. The funeral took place from the Congregational church yesterday afternoon and was largely attended. The interment was in Highland Lawn.
