DEADLY DESPONDENCY.
It Oaueea Qeorgo Harter to
Bleed Himself to Dnath.
His Body Found Stiff nnd Cold In His
Employer's Shop.
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.

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.
