John Cardwell, for three torms city marshal of Burns. Hnrnoy county, committed suicide at that place, Sat urday, in health had mado him despondent. "Wick" Wulker, a well-to-do farm er living on Birch creek, about (tight miles west of town, is missing, and fears are entertained that he has committed suicide by what means novone has any definite notion, al though tho general surmise is that he may have drowned nimsotr. A goneral alarm was turned in here lu the city this morning, although- a few knew of the disappearance last evening, and a number of iieoplo bnvo gone out to Birch creek to search for the man and for traces mat may prove a key to his whereabouts, All that Is known at this time on tho sub ject is as follows: About 10 o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Walker took a bucket of slop and left the house wherein lie and his family rosido and started ostensibly for tho pig pen. soma distance away. As he did not return after some time, search was mado for mm by the family, but they could find no cluo whatever to his whereabouts, and then gave tho alarm. Tho bucket of slon for tho pigs was found In the fnth leading from the house to tho pli, pen, Us contents being exactly as me wero when Mr, Walker left the House.
