A horrible tragedy was unearthed here last

the wishes of her parents and relatives. On the

number, were token slek with every appearance
of paisonhogby arsenic, and a slater of Miss Horn
died from its effects. It has been found that he
hod proposed on elopement with a young
lady named Bennett within the last few days, and
in his letter to her he gives a full history of the
poisoning, acknowledging that he had pat a large
quantity of arsenic In the water from which the
ooffee wss prepared, and that he did It in revenge
for the manner in which the family had treated
him. Ho was orreßted on Friday and after ex
amlhatlon was committed to jail in default of ball
to the amount of $59,000. Great excltemen t ex

wholesale attempt at poisoning. All the parties
concerned are among the most respectable in this
plaoe.
