DIED: At his residence, in St. Louis,
on the 29th April, JOSEPH N. MAGELLAN,
Esq, aged fifty Y-fve years. The deceased
was the only surviving brother of Michael
Dan Magellan. He was born In Loretto,
in March, 1903: He removed to St.
Louis in 1928, where he resided up to
the time of his death He has filled
many and important Offices in that city,
with credit to himself and benefit to the
people. Faithful and kind to his friends,
forgiving and forgetting enemies, he died
as he lived-at peace with the world. A
christian in life, he left for we hope a
home where no care or sorrow can ap-
proach him. May our end be like to his.
Surrounded by loving family, consoled
by the last and most solemn religious rites,
he left this world for it is to be hoped a
better and happier one. RIP.

ELECTION oF Co. SUpT.-The conyen-
ton of School Directors to name sue
cessor to Mr.. Henry Ely, whose term of
Office as County Superintendent has about
expired, met here ON Monday, and, after
a short and harmonious session, elected
Mr.. j. Frank Condor, of Johnstown, to
that high position. Mr.. G. has been
professional teacher for many years, and
at the present time holds the position of
Superintendent of the Johnstown Union
schools. He is spoken of as young man
of fine intellectual attainments, and as
eminently qualified in every respect to
perform satisfactorily the responsible du-
ties attaching to the Office. A returned
soldier, who had lost his health in the
service of his country, Mr.. C.'s elevation
is proof conclusive of the fact that Re-
publics are not altoays ungrateful.

week concerning the democratic caucus"

children, as every parent will understand.
They invaribly wear out their shoes at the
toe first, and not unfrequently before the
other parts are a quarter worn. Children's
shoes with Metal tips never wear out at
the toe, and it is safe to say that on an
average one pair with them will more
than out-wear three pairs without them
We believe all the shoe dealers keep

found the men generally well In camp. Many
are in hospital at Fletcher's Chapel, Windmill

alike are cared for, lodged aud fed. There is
not sufficient care and promptncss in forward

though the business of steamers and cars Is
enormous, and some allowance should be
made.
At this station about hundred soldiers are

they are, from all parts of the country, ex-
