FOUND DEAD IN BED.
Charles King, a prisoner at the state penitentiary, was found dead in bed in his cell in that institution this morning.

There was no warning of his death in previous illness, and he was at work yesterday. This morning when the call was made King did not respond and the guards found him dead in his bed.
