noticed in, his manner or habits up. to
9 5,W., 011 saturday. The children. slept irt
the same room with their father, and were
sent downstairs at that hour Saturday
morning by him, with the information that
their father was not very well anctdid not
wish to be disturbed for a few hours. This
was not suffioient to arouse any suspicion
in the minds of the *inmates of the house,
and no apprehension of anything being
wrong was felt till 2 or 3 o'clock in the
afternoon. Some emote of blood were
. noticed on tbe clothes of one of tbe chi',
dren, ' and this circumstance, coupled
with the non.appearance of bis boarder
ab dinnertime, induced the proprie.
tor, Mr. Elise Jones, to .. send for
two of his neignbors, Aid.. Jewel and My.
David Hunter, and together theY proceeded
to the bed•room ocoupied by Dittmer.They
found the door unlooked mid the unfoetun-

only his night.shirt on. The bed, floor at d
walls of the room were bespattered witu
blood; A wash handthetein filled with Abe,

bed, aud near by an open. razor. At the
