Suicide At Mound City.
J.W. Eglehoff of the Mound City Mills, Shoots Himself.

Last Saturday evening about 5 o'clock, J.W. EGLEHOFF, owner of the Mound City
Roller Mills, committed suicide at his home in Mound City by shooting himself in
the mouth with a 32-calibre revolver. He was dressed lying on the bed in his
room. He had not been feeling well for a couple of days and his wife had just
left the room to prepare something for him when she was startled by the report
of a gun.
It is said that there is only one cause to which the terrible act could be
traced--his business life, and it is supposed to be in fairly good condition.
The deceased was a Texan but moved to Mound City from Missouri. All who knew him
spoke quite highly of him in many ways.
He leaves a wife and a son about 20 years old.
