  Sudden Death. - Yesterday morning about one o'clock Carrie Woodring, 
a nymph du pave well known in this city, who has lived at various 
places in town during the last four years, died at a house kept by Mrs. 
David Funk, on Fourteenth street, between Tenth and Eleventh avenues.  
Carrie was a very pleasing looking young woman, under medium size and 
about twenty-four or twenty-six years of age.  Her parents reside at 
Port Matilda and they have been notified of her decease.  There are 
certain suspicious circumstances connected with her death and last 
evening Coroner Humes summoned a jury and proceeded to hold an inquest.  
The inmates of the house were examined but no important testimony was 
elicited.  Subpoenas were issued and the jury adjourned until this 
evening.
