Sunday afternoon Mrs. Swain, living at the corner of Second and Mulberry streets, took a large dose of morphine. Some time after she swallowed the poison she told some of the tenants of the house of what she had done. She olaimed to have swallowed a whole bottle full, but her story is not credited by any of the tenants of the house. I

As soon as it was learned that she had taken poison the physician was summoned and when he arrived Mrs. Swain was still under the influenoe of the drug. Emetic and hypodermic injections failed to rouse her and the

Mr.Swain is of unsound mind, caused by a wound received while in the army. He gets a pension of $30 per week and his wife claims that his mother took him from her in order to get bis pension money. She says that his mother keeps him constantly under the influence of morphine and whiskey so that he will not make a fuss ahout the money. His mother on the contrary alleges that his wife is continually taking morphine and whiskey, and while under their influenoe she is unable to take proper care of her husband. The case Eeems to be rather a mixed up affair and it would be well, for the police to investigate the matter Mrs. Swain's neighbors credit her Btory about her mother-in-law's conduct.

Previous to the out-door exercises there were services in the church. A procession was then formed of the clergy and the male societies of the parish, and headed by the Biuggold band those in line marched down Ninth Btreet to the church corner. In line were about seventy-five members of St. Franois' Society, of whioh John R. Brinkmah is president, and about .forty members of St. Anthony's Society, an organization of the young men of the parish. Mr. Huiman, through whose aid and energy the construction of suoh a fine building is possible, marched with the St Franois Society.

On arriving at the churoh oorner the clergy and several of the leading mem bers of the congregation mounted the platform and the services began. The olergymen present were as follows: Father Gueger, the venerable whitehaired priest from St Mary's Fathers Frewin, Scbnell, Byres and Kroeger, of this city, and Father Biohardt, of Teutopolis, HI. Father Geuger officiated and was assisted by the others. At the conclusion of the oorner stone laying Father Michael Richardt, O. S. F., reo tor of St. Joseph's College at Teutopolis, 111., preached in German. The sermon is spoken of as a very ab'e one.

The papers plaoed under the stone included all' the Terre Haute papers and the Indianapolis Glocfca, the Churoh Progress of Marshall, the Glausbensbate of Louisville, the Herald des Glaubens of St. Louis, the Catholic Volksblatt of New York, the Catholic Times of New York and the Sendbote of Cincinnati.

He was carried to the yard office and Coroner Haworth notified. Halfhill leaves a wife and two children. He was about forty-five years of age. His family who live on south Twelfth street were notified. The ooroner will hold an inquest this evening.

St. Clair Discharged and Kearrested.

[Enquirer special.]

COLUMBUS, Ind., June 15.—Detective Grady came down from Indianapolis today to attend the trial of Charles St Clair, the Indianapolis sport, charged with killing and robbing the negro hostler Tate, at the races here in June last, but claimed he oould not secure the attendance of witnesses. St. Clair was again discharged, but was then tried and fined $12,80 for assault on Detective Grady, when on trial here two weeks ago. [The St. Clair mentioned in the above dispatch is the Charley St. Clair, the gambler and thief who formerly lived in this city with Jennie Wynings. It is a pity he could not be hanged. He is a scalawag of the worst description and his being at large is a standing menace to everybody, even the thieves who train with him.]

A Rockville Affair.

RocKvtLiiE, Jjjne 15.—[GAZETTE special.}—While working together in the rear of the north side buildings this morning, Morris Roberts, colored, without a word being said by either party, deliberately struck Chas. Finnegan, white, twice over the heal. with a piece of Bcantling. i' Finnegan was immediately taken to his home in the north part of town, and Roberts gave himself up, but is out on $1000 bond. Both men were in the employ of Sylvan us Moore, contractor. Finnegan is a married man, having one child, and the physicians say he cannot recover. Roberts assigns for his reason that Finnegan had been "running his work down" causing him to "lose his hold" with his employer.

.• Mrs. Swain Better.

Mrs. Swain, living at the oorner of Second and Mulbery street, who took the dose of morphine on Sunday, is muoh better today. She is able to sit up and is much more rational than at any time since she took the prison. She says that after she swallowed it she thought she didn't want to die and as an "antidote" she took whiskey on top of it. The physicians are in aquandry to know how She ever withstood the effects of a double dose. The whiskey must have been of p6or quality to counteract the effects of a whole bottle of morphine.
