Ycstonlny morning , about 7 o'clock A. T. Scliullz , of the firm of Schultc & Hill , on opening the door of their wagon shop on Fourth street , found a stnrtlingly horrible - riblo sight , it being the prostrate nnd lifeless body of ono of their employes , George Harter. Mr. SchultK was ac companied by Mr. Hans Johnson , and the condition of the body showed to them conclusively that Ilartcr had committed suicide. In the right hand of the dead man wns clasped n pocket knife , covered with blood , while upon the wrist of the other was n gash from which the blood had spouted up upon the adjacent wall , and hud formed in a pool upon tlio floor. Lifo was extinct and the body stilf and cold. TJioro was nothing to indicate why the net was done no note or other evidence showing the feelings or purposes im mediately preceding the net. Coroner Fuul was at oiico called nnd summoned n jury consisting of J. F. Brodbeck , B. U. Kiddle and John K. Cooper. The evidence of Mr. Scliullz and that of Mr. Johnson was taken , and after viewing the body the jury found "that the said Georuo Ilartor came to his do.ith by cutting his left wrist and bleeding to death. " The deceased 1ms for yc.irs been addicted to drink , and has in vain at tempted several times to reform. The seasons of debauch have been fol lowed by seasons of despondency , and it is supposed that it was in ono of these that ho took his own life. Sev eral years ngo ho made a similar at tempt , but was saved , nnd the scar which bore the record appeared on his loft wrist close to where the froah nnd fatal gash was made. . IIo was last soon on Main street about 0 o'clock Sunday evening , mid did not then seem to bo intoxicated. It is sup posed that soon after this ho wont to the shop where ho was employed , nnd to which ho had n key , and entering that locked himself in and taking his pocket knife cut his wrist and bled to death. Harlot was n Gorman , aged about fifty years. Ho has boon n remdont of this city for about seven years , nnd was a wagon mukor by trade. Ho loaves a wife nnd twelve children , the older of whom nro married and living in Now York state. Of the children living , among the oldest hero is a girl in the employ of Mrs. E. J. Harding and her sons. The others are qui to small. The woman is loft in a desti tute condition and Coroner Faul , on learning this , started n subscription paper , and in a short time had secured $2Q , which amount * vill speedily bo swelled. Arrangements have been inado for holding the funeral this morning at 10 o'clock. " * " AMITY COLLEGE Rapidly Growing- Prosperity Ita Forno Spreading Far and Wide. V COLLEGE Srmtras , Page County , la. , March 21. Amity College , the educational centre of southwestern Iowa , is located at College Spring * , a little town of about GOO inhabitants , six miles east and two miles north of Blanchard nnd twelve miles south of Olarinda , Great efforts were made by her citizens last summer , as well as several times previous , to obtain a railroad. A subscription of about eight thousand dollar. ) was raised for the branch of the 0. B. & Q. road from Olarinda , but the company coolly withdrew from its part of the bargain and again loft us disconsolate. Nona of the roads have como to us yet , though they run around us in every conceivable direction as if tan talizing us by trying to see how close- they could como to us and miss us , The Wnbash road , with its Olarinda branch , forms n Y , and the Page City branch of the 0. B. & Q. outs across the top forming a triangle , with College Springs in the contra. Hence , without a railroad , wo cannot , as a town , compare with surrounding towns. Wo have ono blacksmith , ono harness , ono wagon nnd ono cabinet shop , ono drug , ono book and ono hardware store , two grocery , two milliners and two 'dry goods stores , five churches , viz , Meth odist , Episcopal , \Vosleyjin Methodist , Congregational , Presbyterian and United Presbyterian , two hotels , and livery stables , n daily mail to Ola- rinda , a tri-weekly to Blanchard nnd Hamburg , nnd n semi-weekly to Hop- kiiiH , Mo , Thus wo Imvu nil the no- ceesities and some of the luxuries of life , and iiro prepared to entertain the travelers who chance to finds his way to our quiet but industriouo little ton n. The very quietness of the town is fa vorable to the student. The college , our graat feature , gives n Hbral edu cation to both sexes , and , while it is unsectarian , it is a Christian col- logo. Its endowment fund was obtained by soiling shares of stock of a company called the Yesteru Industrial and Scientific association , afterwards changed to Amitv college. The funds thus nb- tained were used to purchase govern ment land at $1,25 per acre. This land is located in Page and Oaes coun ties nnd in Missouri. . After the pur chase had boon made , each stock holder received in hind at $2 DO per aero the amount ho had invested and also , with every share of stock , n scholarship entitling the holder ( o live yeara free tuition in the collegu Tn the land remaining to the company , the town of College Springs was laid out , and the remainder sold or hold for a permanent investment. All land sold by the college is sold under the express stipulation that such land shall not bp used for the manufacture or ealo of intoxicatinu drinks. One- fourth of the funds arising from the silo of laud was to bo used for a build ing fund and the interest on the remaining three-fourths to bo used for the support of the school , 'Iho'firflt class in the ncademic department was organized in 1857. For fifteen ycara its success was va riable , part of the time boiiig ab sorbed by the public schools , until the year 1872 , when the board of trustees decided that n change must bo made nt all hazards , nnd Itov. A. F. McDill wns chosen for president. Ho nt once organized the school on n collegiate basH. A normal course was added to the curriculum , nnd the outlook bade fair for n prosperous career for the college. Under Mr. McDill's nblo management the school grow rapidly until the year 1877 ( when ho resigned , nnd the board were obliged to select some ono else to fill the position. The choice fell upon Ilev. S. 0. Marshall , then pas tor of n United Presbyterian church in Monroe county. Ho is n fine scholar , n grftduatq of Muskingmn ' 'ollc o , Ohio , and also of the theo logical seminary nt Allcghnny City , Pcnn. , nnd is well qualified for the position. Under the present administration thp college is steadily growing in thoroughness nnd in the number of students in attendance. Connected with the colloso are two nourishing literary societies , thu Ohristomathcan and and the Philomnthcnn , The former is just entering its second yrnr , being a reorganization of the old Union society formed about nine years ngo. Iti members number about foity. Its object is to give an opportunity for frcoucnt practice in extemporaneous speaking as well as in declamations , essays and orations. During its short period of existence it 1ms been more than usually success fully , both financial and otherwise. A number of the gentlemen members of this society , calling themselves the "Wobstcrs , " meet every Saturday night for further practice in debate , but is n.ifc arugardly organizedsoc'ioty. rhoPhilomathuan society is auniun and reorganization of the Amitonian and A. B. L. societies and is , wo are informed ! reasonably prosperous. If any young lady or gentlemen see ing this article should bo contempla ting going of ] to school wo would ad vise them to try our college , especially if it is necessary to use economy. The expenses are lower hero , wo presume , than nt any similar school in the state. Good board can be obtained at $2.50 to $3.00 per week , nnd the tuition is very low. % i 0. H. W. THE LAST SAL ) BITES. Tributes Pnld to the Memory or W. J Phillips and the Remains Laid at Host. Last Sunday afternoon nil that was mortal loft of , AV. J. Phillips was laid away with a becoming service. The funeral was held at the family residence , a largo number of sorrowing and sympathizing friends being In at tendance , llov. Mr. Brosoo , pastor of the Methodist church , officiated and the services were very appropriate and touching. At their close the pro cession was for mini to take the remains to their last resting place , the pall bearers being chosen front the Grand Army of the Republic and from the Knights ot Pythias , to both of which orders ho belonged. The veterans of the farmer organization joined in the sad procession to the number of about eighty , under Commander Lindt , while thoiKnighta of Pythias , number ing nearly a hundred , were under the command of Deputy District Grand Chancellor E. J. Abbott. A heavy rain was falling at the time , nnd under such circumstances ,1110 appearance pearanco of both of those organiza tions was commendable , both as to numbers and mien. At the grave the ritual of the Knights was used in pav ing n Insl. tribute. The following resolutions have been adopted by the Lincoln Post. G. A. 11. as a still further expression of their sorrow and sympathy : " WIIEHKAH , The "members of the ' Lincoln Post G. 'A. R. , No. 29 , and members of the Veteran Association of Pottavattnmio Co. do deplore the unexpected separation nnd death of our brother nnd comrade , W. J. Phil lips ; therefore bo it Resolved , That we extend to his bereaved family our heartfelt and sincere core sympathies. That while the din tressed family have lost by an unex pected death a true and loving father and husband , wo have lost a true , devoted voted and faithful brother nnd com rado. rado.Resolved Resolved , In our conclusion we can in deep sorrow only say : The march of another comrade is over , and ho lies down after it in the house ap pointed for all the living. It seems well wo should lenvo our comrade to rest , where over him will bond the arching sky , as it did in great love when ho pitched his tent or lay down weary nnd foot core by the way or on the battle field for an hour's rest. As ho wns there , so ho is still in the hands of the hciivonly father ; and bo it further' Resolved , Thnt wo tender to the family of our Into comrade a copy of these resolutions , nnd thnt the same bo spread upon the minutes of Abe Lincoln Post , No. 20 , G. A. H. , und Pottawattamie County Veteran nsso- Hociation , and that our hoadqunrtoru bo drapnd in mourning for the period of thirty days ; nnd bo it further Resolved , That wo request the pa pers of Council Bluffs , Iowa , to pub- litli the above resolutions. NYii , OAMIMIKLL , Jos. CIUUEU , J. J. BOLIK , J. B. IlKFT , HENHV GKMIKIMKK , Committee. Tlio Election Date in Iowa. Dt lloluo Hci'Uter , \Vo stated the other day that the late legislature had changed nil the annual state elections to H November data. Wo find on examination that this is a mistakein part. What it did was to enact that in odd-num bered years the general election should bo held in October ; inoven-numborod years on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. The change was to strike out the words "presi dential yeara" and insert "oven-num bered' ' Why it did half work in making the change wo do not know. It seems to bo a queer proceeding , But why cgislatures do such queer thingajwe Have uot been publishing a newspaper long enough to bo able to ioqlab. It would seem thnt , chnncf ni ; it in half , it would have changed it altogether. Thnt would have been the common sense tvny of doing it. Special Levies. A number of citizens and property owners are talking in favor of having the city adopt n policy by which many improvements now made nnd paid for by the general levy upon the whole city , shall bo inado and paid for by npccinl levies Upon the proper ty in the immediate vicinity , and which is directly bonefittcd by the im provement , It is urged by the ad vocates of this policy that where it is desired to mnl < o any improvement of nstreet , thnt n petition shall bo pro cured signed by the owners of a ma- jorily of the adjacent property , nnd that on the strength of this petition the improvement shall bo mndo , nnd the expense taxed direc'ly against the property interested. It is urged that such n financial course would do awny with much of the complaints cxisthig among these who claim that they nro being taxed for the benefit of property which docs not in any wny concern them , nnd the complaints of these who nro pleading for improvements but cannot get them. Tn tlio latter case , under the proposed p-licy , they could ] only lay the bin mo on them selves nnd neighbors for not signing the required petition , and expressing themselves us willing to pay for the improvement , the direct benefit of which they ecck , It is still further urged that in this way the general levy could by used for repairs and general city expenses , for which an ample amount could bo secured without exceeding tlio constitutional limit. At the same time special im provements would not bo kept back by n lack of funds , for if the owners ot piopcrty to bo bcnefitted desired nn improvement bad opough to pay for it , it could bo pushed right along. There are others who object to this sort of n policy. Some raise ques tions of law against it , but the more common objection , whe.i any is expressed - pressed ; is that there nro property owners who have for j curs been pay ing taxes for improvements which benefited other property than their own , and havo" been waiting nnd watching for the city to got around to them. Such property owners would naturally qbjoct to having to hear the burden of improvements in their own vicinity , when they hod helped to pay for improvements which were of benefit - fit to others. The matter is being agitated some what , and the discussion may give birth to a change in the city's policy , by which it will bo enabled to push improvements in portions of the city where they are wanted , and where people stand ready to pay for them , and stayed where the owners feel that their Jburden was all that they could carry without paying for them.
