Not since the yet unexplained shoot' ng of Col. Watson B. .Smith has there > ccurrcd in Omaha , if , indeed , in Nobras < ca , an aflair possessed of so much melan choly mystery as the death of the woman called Jessie Snoll , on the night of Satur- lay , the lth ! ) inst. There are not want- ng witnesses of the shot which killed icr ; there are many and anxious assor- ions that it was accidental ; but to the mind forming conclusions from prool only , to him interested in the mystoriee of psychology , in this case whore scarce ! } a witness is entitled to credence for hie own sakp , there is room for doubt and peculation. It is allodged that vrhilo the pistol was > dinted towards the man Snoll. who hold t , the young woman now dead seized it > y the muzzle and caused its discharge nto her own breast ; that the great afluc- ion for a long time hold toward".Icssio , " > y Snoll , proclucdostlio idea of shooting ntcntional on his part. I have said that in this case the wit- icBaos are scarce worthy of crcdonco. 'Major" Croft , under whoso roof the ragody was consummated , was formerly Methodist preacher. lie has , in con- orsation , and maintained in his oxamin- ition , a ejuiot and [ ontlcmanly demeanor ; iis eye is clear ; his facobears no outward ividouco of iniquity ; his hair has that raniiiil | whiteness which reverential > ooplo have regarded as a crown of glory , ) ut no ono has printed or spoken a word if this man but onoof loathing and hatred , tameless and numberless deeds of shame ro charged by the popular voice to his ccount. A painful and , to the obscr- ant , unconcoalablo anxiety to establish , > y force of reiteration , the unintcn- ipnality of the killing appeared to occupy iis mind when before the coroner's ury. ury.To this end admonitory shakos of the < oad and meaning looks were available ij * the "major's" fourteen year old son when the latter was testifying. Tlio son was twisted into an unwilling admission , hat the weapon was in Snoll's liande when discharged. The statement is nol mportant evidence. The anxiety tc icroou excites suspicion. The "major1 lad professional interest in lessoning the atrocity of the crime. The moro accidon al it could bo shown to bo the less of r "hell hole" his retreat might bo considered orod by that lawless and unreasoning : reation of rhetoric , the same no twe lours in the day "tho public morality.1 Whatever other interest ho may havi lad , wo cannot know. The expression ; of grief of the bereaved young man , hii desire to provide for the funeral expenses cannot count for much. They are ni moro than a wilful murdorpr would certainly tainly feign to mislead justice. Ono would naturally suppose that th < immediate circumstance of the shootinj would have loft some rational and coho rout recollections in the minds of tin spectators , but their accounts are conllic ting and inadequate. It is diflicult t < imagine that when two persons won wrestling with a revolver , and when , up on its discharge between thorn , the oni who is mortally wounded turns and lie down to die , anyone should fail ti come to the instant conclusion o the terrible truth , But no ono appear ; to have had a suspicion of it but the bo ; who , the "major" "thinks , " said li "thoughfaho was "hurt,1' ' no doubt hav ing reference to her feelings. Ono evidence wo cannot mistakebotl hands of the woman were blackened b ; the powder. This black and dismal wit ness has no ax to grind and n < friend to shield. There is no roasonabli doubt that tlw hands were in front of th muzzle of the pistol. They could no have touched the hammer or the triggo of the weapon , and , in time to have tiooi blackened by the muzzle , retreated to thi front of the barrel. There are to-day holes in the clothe of "Jossio" made long before this occurrence ronco by the bullets of Snoll. She ha said that when ho came down she woulc not live long. There have boon men will moro common sense and tear of God thai cow-boys , who have , in a moment of rage foiled to the earth a dearer object thai this woman , of whoso character the les said the bettor. The testimony is unanimous to her fem caresses of this man Snoll during th evening ; that moro than once her arm twined around him and her lips spok tender words. There waa no trace o disappointment ; and yet I thought tha there might bo a melancholy moaning ii that , after receiving that wound , she die not cling to him in the agony of ai irreparable blunder , or utter ono syllabi of fond good.byo ; her trongth might no have boon equal to this , but it was cqua to her walking to the next room and ly ing down to die alono. Pel hops there had como to her a sonsi of indiBcribablo horror of such a death There is evidence that she came of gooc family ; her foot are spoken of as vcn small , her hair as brown and curling ; ho : face as not unattractive. Her sister is t largo landholder in Dakota. There is tin utmost pathos iu a letter written her b ; her mother. She regretted to hear of he ill-health , had trouble with her lung herself , hoped it was not consumption was ulad her daughter was marriedliopw her husband was a healthy man am wished for both their pictures.

(2 ( AN ICE WATER BATH , Twelve Cattle Singling in the Coli Waters cf the Missouri , Flvo of riicin Drowned nnel tlic lie mniiulcr Kcsoucd In nn Almost Mlblcss Condition. Last evening , just before dusk , a traveler olor attempted to drive a herd of cattli across the Missoui i river at the foot o Dodge street. Ho drove thorn upon tin river at a point where ice had boon cu and consequently it was somewhat weak As the herd advanced the ice began t ( crack , and the cattle all huddled together gothor , thereby breaking the ice nndth _ ( whole herd , twelve in number , were precipitated cipitatod into the cold and turbid waters Then commenced a struggle to save thorn from drowning. The poor , fright' onod and chilled boasts plunged in a wild and ferocious manner , lashing the watoi into a foam. They leaped upon and against each other , and bleated in a most pitiable manner. They inndo desperate attempts to free themselves from their perilous position by endeavoring to leap upon the ice , but it broke as they approached preached it. In a short space of tiiuo , five of the poor brutes succumbed and sank to the bottom. After a desperate struggle , the remaining seven were landed upon tlio ice , dripping and exhausted , and it is oven now questionable whdthor they will survive their severe drenching. People driving upon the river , at this or any other point , while so many gangs of ico-cuttors are at work , should bo very careful that they do not drive upon some spot from which ice has boon taken so re cently as to make the now formation of ice dangerous and insulliciont to sustain the _ weight of a horse , or horses and vehicle.

Ho hold liis opinions firmly and advocated them with ability ; yet ho was neither an ex tremist nor a bigot. His creed was scriptural and evangelical , and ho defended it with a vigor that did honor to his noble denomination ; yet ho was over ready to acknowledge the rights duo to individual conscience. In the truest sense ho was sound as a thinker : in the truest sense ho was liberal oa a man. For more than a year lie pre sided over our association , and uniformly conducted the proceedings with skill and dignity. While this church has lost an able leader , his denomination a farsighted - sighted advisor , and Christianity in general - oral a most devoted and fearless friend , \vo have lost a tried brother.
