Mr. Stein sent him $20, but never afterward heard from him. This was last October. He thiuks John was on his way, to Mexico on the Colima and was lost at sea.

make a success o! it. "Undo Billy Athon, who has been the popular day olerk there for nearly seventeen yeans— and a most genial one, too, will oontinue under the new management, and will serve as a beaoon light to strangers traveling his way, Mr. Merritt has sold his merchant tailoring business to Connelly A Johnson, who will remove from their present location.

Chaunoey Piokerell, a young farmer living near New Goshen, was found dead across the river Thursday morning, his body lying between the two railroads, with a revolver at his side. There is a mystery conneoted with this death which the deteotives thus far have been unable to solve. He had been married only a few days before to Miss Lizzie Baird, daughter of Mrs. Margaret Baird, of 412 Oak street, this city, and on Wednesday had visited Paris, figuring on going into business for himself He was a young man of excellent habits, was prominent in the order of Odd Fellows and was the chief officer of the New Goshen lodge* of that order. In addition te this he was happily fnarried and it does not Beem probable that at a time when life was most Inviting he should take his own life. Yet this is the view held by the police authorities, who from their investigation of the matter are in better position to speak knowingly. There are many conflicting stories extant about Piokerell having a large sum of money on his person when last seen, about a mysterious stranger who left the city with him at an early hour Thursday morning, and whose present wt.enabouta is yet unknown, but theblosjflt police investigation has failed to b«yr them out. The case will probably go on recorS as one of the mysterious deaths for which this vicinity has become celebrated. Detective McRae expresses the opinion that^ Pickerell was unable to seoure money sufficient to start a store in Paris and that he worried over the matter -andthat to esoape further worry he took his own life.
