On Tuesday night last, burglars made several ; attempts to force an entrance into Yous' store, on South Carlisle street.

In a few minutes, how ever, she heard them in the alley along side the house, when she again fired, which caused the burglars to beat a hasty retreat. Mrs." Yous Is ' satisfied that there were three of them. She says she fired to hit, but there is no evidence so far that she did so. Qreencastle Echo. Suicide. David Llddlg, sen., residing in Watts twp., this county, committed suicide on Sunday 27th ult. His grand daughter and her husband bad been to to church on that day, and on their re turn home, found his dead body on the floor In a pool of blood. From information received it appears that the old man had gone to visit a sister (Mrs. Carl,) after departure of Johnson and wife, where he met his son Benjamin and where he re mained until about 3 o'clock P. M. when in company with his son started to go home, the two traveling together until near the old man's dwelling where they separated, this was the last seen of the old man alive. He must have gone to his home and commenced prepara tions to take his life for it is asserted by Johnson that the weapon used (a short rifle) had no load in it when he left home in the morning. The opinion of those who examined the room and the body J s that having carefully loaded the weapon he seated himself In a chair and resting the butt of the weapon against the bed near which the chair stood be held the muzzle against his temple with one hand and touched it off with the otber, the ball took an upward and back ward direction coming out at the top of the head and lodging In the floor above. It is said by those who saw the body that the entire con tents of the weapon must have entered bis head and that the wound made by the exit of the ball was a horrid and ghastly one, portions of the skull bone being scattered about the room.
