It was the pioneer" line westward, and is the old reliable route to St Louis. With the improvements which hare been made during the past year, we beliere that the Missouri Pacific Railroad has the best track and finest and safest equipment of any line west of the Mississippi. It is the only line which runs daily express trains of fine coaches and Pullman sleepers, equipped with the Miller platform and the patent air brake, from leading points in the West, through Kansas City, Sedalia and Jefferson City to St Louis without change, connecting at SW Louis with eleven different through routes to points North, East and South.

About seven o'clock last evening a boy by tbe naiae of Jefferson T. Uigby, who hadbeea at work with a boat in the Kansas river getting out ciocoverea' what proved to be the Jy of Frank Brinkman caught In tbe limbs of a tree wMch bad caved lntoitbe river, about 300 yards below theX L.t. Railroad bridge. on tbe norm side of tbe river. The boy coin-manicated tbe intelligence to bis father, who notified C.

C. James, the ernstable living on tbe north aide. Mr. James at once came over tbe riv-r and notified Marshal Walker, Tbe Marshal wrnt for a coroner and the constable summoned a jury. Coroner Abdelal declining to act aa coroner, Jnige timith was elected for the v-ioo, and at ouce proceeded with the Marshal to the river bank where the body was found.

The Jury, accompanied by a large eiowd of eitisena, were soon on the spot At first there was tome difficulty to get anyone to gj out wiib Constable James and bring the body to shore. Finally Jackson ScovUl and Tobias Miller volunteered, and with fisherman Worrell, who furnished tbe boat, they went and look the body in and brought it to a convenient landing place some fiity fe below. The body was taken up and laid out on the grassy bank above, The eager crowd gathered aroand and at once proclaimed it the body of F. Brinkman. The coroner's Jury then newed and identified tbe body, aod examined the same to see if there were any wounds upon it.

The akin was abrad ed on tho noae, on one of tbe ears and on tbe shin of tbe left leg. Further than this there were no wounds nor marks of violence, thus contradicting tbe ropular supposition that he had shot himself. Ihe body had on a white ribbed woolen sbirt, a thin grey striped blouse coat with pants to match, the latter rolled up at tbe bottom and without suspenders, and a thick pair of blue woolen socks were on tbe feet. in the pockets of tbe pants were found a knife, a pencil, a bunch of keys, and several pieces of foreign silver coin. Ihe examination having been completed, tbe inquest adjourned to to-day US) at Judge Smith's office.

The corwner's jury consists of the following persons: A. G. Abdelal, George Schweitzer, C. F. Goodrich, C.

J. Walruff, Abner Tbnrber and W. J. Buchanan. The body was tempora rily put in charge of Mr.

Grorge Schweitzer and C. J. Walruff, who put it in a pine box and brought it over to the city ball last night and delivered it into the charge of tbe authorities From the condition of the body, which was swollen and had begun to decay, it had evidently been in the water for some time, ren dering it probable that tbe suicide was committed on Sunday night immediately after the fire. The probability is that seeing that his at tempt to burn tbe building had failed, and knowing that the evidence of his guilt would be overn helming, he immediately proceeded to the railroad bridge and threw himself into the river, and thus at once passed beyond the riidiction of any human tribuual. It is charitable to infer that the mind el the man was in a diseased condition, and that its latest maniies tations were those ot insanity rather than of crime.

Uis traglo end furnishes another of those fearful warnings against intemperance which have so often of late startled this com munity. ITEMS. Upon inquiry we learn frcm those knawing him well that Mr. Brinkman has been drinking bard for a good many years, and bis business troubles were due to that osuse. Before his partnership with Mr.

Frank, Brinkman was in company with Mr. F. Engleeman, of this city, and had trouble in closing out with him, his matters of difference being left to arbitrators, and then he refusing to abide by their decision lie finally bought Englesman out, and Mr Frank, who bad recently come to Lawrence, became his partner. It is stated that at the time, a few months ago, when be was reported to have committed suicide, and pretended have been tcKansas City, he was really In the bottom below town, aud was seen coming from there witb bis gun on bis shouldor. His violent character, at least so far as words are concerned, was shown last week by a little incident related to us yesterday by a colored man named Jones, who works in Mr.

Frank's store. Jones waa owing him S5 for a prefs. Brinkman had asked him for several times. On Friday morning last be asked Jones again lor that Jonea didn't have it, when Brink- man turned on him fiercely and said, 'If you don't bave that money for me to morrow morn ing I will shoot you Mr. Jones took him to be in earn.

st. and had the five dollars ready for him the next morning. To show how he bad prepared bis kindlings for making a fire, it was found that bcsl Usa gallon of coal oil which be bad in his room, he went down and borrowed, or got, from Mr Griffith's office a large coal oil lamp full of oil, which waa found empty in bia room after the fire. Mr. Macanlay, who lives in the building, was awakened by Ihe cry of fiie, and rose snd stood looking out of his windows for some minutes to see where the fire was before he found that it was so close to him.

Yesterday the door from the hall into Mr. Frank's upper store room, through tbe transom of which the pine stick wound with candle wicking saturated witb coal oil waa thrown, was closed up and the place plastered over. It was not in use, and the room is accessible, both from tbe" room below by stairs snd from the back stairways of tbe building. The pine stick or cb'ink, with the burned wicking around it, is in Mr. Frank's It is a villainous- looking instrument.

II Brinkman intended to kill Mr. Frank and then to commit suicide, as his letters Indicate, he had a hundred opportunities to Co so. and his courage probably failed him. The attempt to burn the building was a dastardly thing, and had it succeeded would have not only destroyed immense amount of property, but would have endangered many lives. State) Personals.

On Friday last we published an account of an affair said to have occurred on the Missouri Pacific Railroad, near Holden, which the passengers drove a gang of ruffians from the cars, killing one of them. We gave the name of oar informant at the time, a well-known business man of this city. A dispatch has since been sent from St' Louis denying, on the strength of the railroad company, the authenticity of the account and pronouncing it a fabrication.

The- standing of. Mr. Timmons in this community ia such as to preclade the sup position that he could have manufactured the story. Besides, there was no apparent motive for him to do so. We have talked with him since this denial was made, and he says that the account we published is true, and that the facts did occur as there stated.

He says he did not see the ob structions on the track, but the cars stop ped on an alarm, and word passed through that there waa an obstruction on the track. Ha is not sure that the conductor's name was Hall, as he did not ask him his name, but his name waa on his lantern, and he took it to be Hall. The ruffians boarded the car, as stated, and the other events occurred aa i narrated. Mr. Timmons did not himself fire a shot, bat shots were fired by the passengers, and oue of the ruffians was killed.
