ANOTHER FRIGHTFUL DEATH,-lt
becomes our painful duty to chron-
icle another fatal accident, which &C.
Cured at the head Of Crooked Greek,
on the Boscobel road, last Saturday.
The particulars, as near as we can
ascertain, are as follows: Mrs.
Thompson, q widow woman who re-
sided at Fennimore, accompanied by
her little son and daughter, started
for Boscobel with a horse and
wagon loaded with wheat, for the
purpose of doing some marketing.
The flies being troublesome, Mrs.
Il. experienced some difficulty in
keeping the horse in motion, and
stopped to let the boy got out and
cut whip. While the lad was pro-
curing the switch, the horse some
how managed to slip the bride off
and started at high speed down the
hill which they were already de-
scending. Mrs. Thompson in at
tempting to leap from the vehicle
caught her skirts on the wagon.box
and was dragged some distance, and
the wheel passing over her body pro-
duced injuries from which she soon
after died. She was an estimable
lady, and her untimely demise has
cast deep gloom over the commun-
ity in which she resided.

Older's Museum and Circus.


As announced last week this grand
consolidation will visit Lancaster on
Monday of next week, Sept. 4th, and
will also appear at Bloomington on
Tuesday, Sept. 9Th. The Dubuque
Times says of this mammoth show:
"Wherever this immense establish
ment has exhibited, il has won the
highest encomiums The PRESS every
where speaks in It's praise. The me-
nagerie contains many rare animals,
among them = sea COW, the horned
horse and the baby elephant. The
museum has for It's leading features,
the world renowned Cardiff Giant.
As for the CIRQUE, it is equal to the
best travelling. We are speaking
now of the ring or equestrian perfor-
mances. But above and beyond
these attractions is that of tho beau
tltul Cretan lady gymnast, Sanyeah,
whose wonderful flying leap across
the arena, aIighting on the trapezo,
and then performing some of the
most startling feats on record. is
what has given Mr.. Olders show a
reputation meyer won by any other
since the advent of the celebrated
Partisan Hippodrome Company in
New York, in 1868. Don't fail to
