people soiree's, where the will be taught
not only the secular branhes of education
but will as well be inetru 'ted in the Bible.
Each of these schools will have a mission-
ary, appointed by the huroh, placed in
charge, and the influence of such teachers
will be felt, not in the s hool room alone,
but in the community gen • rally. His object
now is to get as many con regations or in-

tribute $250 a 3 ear tower s the support of

a great and good work for these people, the

pany with a fellow laborer nanied Richard-

—Otte Sachan, a wellito-do mason eon -

barn, at Berlin, on Monday morning last.
He gave his wife no intienation of what he
was about to do, and wee found in less than
an hour's time after leaving his house. The
causes leading to the man's rash act are two-
fold. For some time past he had been bit-
terly jealous of his wife. He was rough to
her, and about a week ago she left him and
applied to the courts for $12 a week ali-
mony. Their differences were patched u
and for the past few days they lived togeth-
er again. Last week he and his partner,
Wm. ' Hehebrandt, dissolved partnership,-
-
and e condition of the sale was that Sachan
was not to engage in the business for nine
months. He worried about this, and while
under a spell of temporary mental aberration -
he took his life.
