THE REVOLVER.
A Man Buys a Revolver and Attempts
to Blow the Top of His Head off, and
Perhaps Succeeds in Killing Himself.
From St. Paul Daily Pioneer, Dec. 23.
About three o'clock yesterday afternoon
a young man entered the store of "W. R.
Buckard and & Co., on third street, and
asked about revolvers. After looking at
several, he selected one that he concluded
to purchase, and wanted to have it loaded.
The clerk did not desire to load the revol
ver ia the store, as it was against tho rules,
made to avoid just such tragedies as fol
lowed. The maa insisted, and finally the
clerk, considering it safe enough, loaded
the revolver and handed the same to the
man. The latter took it in his hands and
commenced handling it so carelessly and in
differently that the clerk remonstrated with
him. and told him to hold the muzzle
down toward the floor, and not to point
the revolver around the store in that way.
Hardly had the words been uttered when
the man suddenly placed the muzzle of the
revolver behind his riht ear, and dis
charged one
barrel.
As soon as
le dis-
charged the revolver he fell to the floor,
with his head under the opposite counter,
and there remained unconscious for about
half or three quarters of an hour. "When
he fell he still held the revolver tightly
clasped ia his right hand. The wound
bled but very little. "While the man lay
on the floor he irvoaned a little, but did not
speak. A large crowd gathered outside the
store and fur a long time blocked up the
side walk so that people could not pass.
Finally the proprietor put down the cur
tains to his store, which had the effect of
thinning out the crowd a good deal, still
enough remained to make the navigation of
the street incooveuieut. Soon after the
shooting Capt. Webber sent a policeman
tor a doctor. lie came back in a short
time with Dr. Stewart, who examined the
sufferer and probtrd the wound. After
seme exertion tho doctor not him to srenk.
.vno he is.
He said his name was Eugine Feathcr
ma.i ; th.it he was 21 years old, and that
he ctuce from Monroe county, Pennsylvania.
His father, he said, lives on a little farm at
Stroudsburg, about five miles from the rail
road. He has been here since August, had
no money, no work, no friend, and no food,
and wanted to put an end to his sufferings.
He was soon after removed to the citv
hospital where he was again examined about
G o'clock. Here his story was varied a lit
tle. The doctor told him that he was sure
to die soon, and if he had anything to say
he ct-u'd then have an opportunity to say
it. He told substantially the same story
about the cause of his shooting himself.
Upon being questioned, however, he stated
that his troubles were hi3 own and then
declined to say anything further upon the
subject, clearly leaving it to be inferred
that there was something in hi3 history not
yet yet known. He was dressed ia a dark
woollen suit, with a course striped shirt
without a collar. His hands appeared to
belonz to a rcrson accustomed to manual
labor.
The unfortunate young man, above
mcntened, is the son cf our esteemed friend
Mr. Jacob H. Fcthermaa, an cxcllent
citizen and thrifty farmer of Hamilton
township, this County. The family in this
gore aSiction command the sympathies of
all. The son left home on the 5th of last
month, not mentioning the fact that he
intended to go away, and nothing was heard
of him until the 27th ult. "We have heard
that he once before left horns suddenly but
after a time returned, bat refused to say
any thing about as to where be had been.
He was esteemed a worthy young man,
and it seems utterly impossible to account
for his strange and tragic end, except on
the assumption that his mind was diseased.

Our Books will show that the sales of
the CHEAP AUCTION STORE Lavo
been 2S4 Dollars more, for the past four
weeks, ending on 2d of October, than they
were during the same vrceka last year.
Yell, Vot oxltf Why it proves be
yond a doubt that the CHEAP AUCTION
STORE is bound to go ahead, opposition
or no opposition. It prospers under the
lash. It is like an old chestnut tree, the
more you club it the more chestnuts you
get.
"Will you believe me You miht as well
try to get a shad to climb to the top of a
crab-apple tree as to get his customers oS
Stroudsburg and the farmers of Monroe
County to leave the cheap Auction Store,
where they have saved so many dollar
duriDg the past six years.
They well know they can get a pfes9 or
bleached or unbleached muslin, from 10 t
20 cents on a dollar cheaper than they can
buy it in other Stores.
They know that Decker sells his beauti
