An electric shock would not have
Btnrtlod Uio citizens of Lincoln moro
'than the news did to-day announcing
that Mr. C. E. Van Pelt , of the firm of
Vnn Poll & Gould , manufacturers of the
I'tillrond remedy , had fallen a victim to
the fatal quicksands of Suit crook.
At an early hour this morning as a
fcontlotnnn was crossing the bridge over
the small creek near the Sharp farm ,
( ilmost east of the penitentiary , he saw

( xnd near it other papers , which were
jioving with the course of the stream.
JIo descended the bank , and in
leaning forward to secure them
| iSs eyes fell upon a eight
that Eont a thrill of horror through his
being ; juet beyond his roach the slioul-
flers and a part of the head of an need
man appeared , his gray hir matted with
eand and Bllnio , but cold in death.
> With the dreadful apparition haunting
him ho hastened to the city and told his
discovery. The coroner and other citi
zens hastened to the scene , when the pa
pers wore secured , and an attempt was
made to lift the dead man from the
water when it was found that ho was
tightly imbedded in the quicksand. A
$ tout strap was obtained and fastened
nround the body , which was seized by
willing hands , hut oven then it re
quired n great effort to pull
the body from its place. Six
Strong men found it to bo all they could
flo to pull the unfortunate victim to dry
round. But the sad work was done ,
§ nd before them lay all that was mortal

lilghty esteemed citizens of the Capital

Ilia terrible death. In crossing the

lield him in its vice until death bora his
epirlt to the mansions of the unknown
world.
For some time past ho was in poor
health and was hardly responsible foi
Ids acts. Is is now thought
that ho was on the borders
Of insanity. Last Saturday , while his
wife had gone to the depot , ho went
tuvivy from home , since when no ono
BUW him until his body was ready foi
the undertaker. Wild plums wore
found in his pockets and it is supposed
that he subsisted on those since ho
wont from the euro of his wife. Ono
feature of his Illness is that ho was
very timid and avoided people and es
pocmllystrangers , and this probably
accounts for his not being soon. It is
euppobod that ho mot his death porno
time yesterday , but it may have boei
during Saturday night , when the dark
ness prevented his seeing whither his
footsteps wore leading. Uut this wil
never bo positively known. The core
jury will out to-night on the case
and export testimony may add new
ight to what is now known. But it is
lardly probable.
The body is now in the undertaker's
muds and it will bo consigned to the
silent grave a day later. Mrs. Van
'clt is grief stricken. Her husband's
lomo-coming was sadder than words
can tell , and the sympathy of friends

A SIYSTKRIOUS DISAPl'EAUANCIS.
It bus suddenly become known that
Dr. J. L. Reese , of Tecum oh , is among
ibis missing and no ono seems able to
ioll when or where or why. During the
reign of an epidemic disease in and
about Johnson's county seat , two or
more weeks ago , ho lost a number of
patients , and souio of his friends express
the opinion that ho brooded over the
unsuccessful results of his practice and
skipped to avoid public censure ,
that he felt was coming to
him. Others think that there is
a scandal behind his sudden leave tak
ing. It is believed that his domestic
life has not been the happiest in the
world , as ho separated from his wife two
or three years ago. But his friends
Bay that If his wife has had anything to
do with his strange actions that he lias
gone to her , somewhere in Ohio ,
for a reconciliation has boon brewing
for sometime. But there is an uneasy
lluttor at Tccumsoh over his going and
an investigation will bo mado. These
facts will bo a source of home surprise
hero for ho was quite well known in the
capital city.

about 11 week upo. The boy proposed to
Vlrs. Fisher that ho would take her hus-
mnd's revolver and call the deal square ,
, o which she consented , and he came to

'athor notified Fisher that ho would
hold him for the pay for his boy's work ,
whereupon ho grew wrothy and had
: he boy arrested on the charge of theft.
On arraignment the boy stood "muto , "
and as there wore nouttornoys on either

continuance on the case , " said the judge
to THIS Bo : rustler , "and will decide us
to the boy's guardian on next Saturday.
I think it best to give the parties to this

but what the court thinks there are
good grounds for the aupointmont of a
guardian , and that ho will do his duty
when the proper time comes. "
