Distressing Accident at Aledo.

ALEDo, July 18th, 1875, v
rs the Editors of The Argus:
This morning while out riding in a car
riage with his family, the Rev, Robert
Nourse, pastor of the Congregational
church of this town. met with very seri-
GUS accident. They were scarcely beyond
the town limits when, in descending hill,
the neck-yoke broke, the pole dropping to
the ground, and the carriage running on
the horses heels, causing them to dash
madly away, upsetting the carriage.
There were in the carriage at the time,
Mr.. Nourse, his wife, step-sister, and four
children. Mr. Nourse was thrown upon
his head and was picked up in an uncon-
scious condition and carried to neighbor-
ing house, where he has lain in state of
semi consciousness eyer since. He is very
badly bruised about the head and face. One
of the children was also quite badly iniur-
ed, but the other inmates of the carriage
miraculously escaped unhurt. Mr.. Nourse
is one of the ablest ministers in this sec
ton, and this misfortune is deeply lament.
ed by large circle of admiring friends.

Between and in the evening there
was every prospect of dangerous storm.
Portentious clouds presented themselves
at three different points of compass-in the
south, in the west, and in the northeast
Their angry appearance and the continued
flashes of lightning from each direction
caused much anxiety as to the result of
the storm. The wind was light but COM
ing, as it did, one moment from the
northeast and the next from the south
west caused good deal of fear of whirl-
wind ct meeting. Luckily the storm in the
southwest moved up Rock river and be-
fore 9 o'clock the sky was completely oyer
cast with rain clouds, and no tear was felt
of a tornado. AT no time was there stiff

From to II last evening, going around

we ever witnessed. The rockets which
continually shot athwart the sky filled be-
holders with awe and wonder.

The Argus Book RinderY.

Some fine specimens of work 10 the rul-
ing and binding liDe are now being turned
out by THE ARGUS BINDERY for parties
in this and adjoining cities, among the lot
are some fifteen or twenty volumes of mag
azines for Mr.. Wood, of Davenport.
Among the volumes is one of music. This
music was soiled and some of it torn and
scarcely considered worth binding. The
torn sheets have been mended, the soiled
sheets cleaned, the whole neatly PACED,
and an index made in the book, so that
any piece of music can be found at once,
and without wearing out the book by con-
stantly turning over its leaves.
A very fne specimen of binding has
been done for Maj. Peetz, cashier Of the
Peoples National Bank, in this city-the
Bankers Magazine, which we should be
glad to have examined by any one who
wants nice work done.
THE ARGUS BINDERY is under the SUI
perintendence of Mr.. Sam Rhodes, a
thorough, practical workman. who was for
several years in the employ of Luse &
Griggs's and G. s. Plummer's binderies, in
Davenport, and for the last three or foul
years foreman of Rand & McNalley's bind.

The pic mic which was to have been held
in Brooks grove this morning by the Sun
day school of the Swedish Lutheran church
was postponed on account of the rain.
The collection of the poll tax in the sixth
road district seems to be causing some
trouble with our street commissioners ID.
Darling, E. NJ. Sinnett have each declined
to serve and finally A. Sinnett, after near
ly completing the list, refuses to further
act. He will be sued for his refusal to
act.
The road commissioners met yesterday.
A. Tollner petitioned for change of the
course of the new road leading to Pleasant
Valley, which the commissioners. refused
to do. A petition was also presented for
the opening of the road over the bluff from
terminus Of the road running south be,
tweenJ ohm Deere's farm and the cemetery
The persons who live along the line of this
proposed road cannot get across to the
city except over other lands nor car
parties living in Rock River bottom reach
the cemetery without taking circuitous
route. The petition was granted.

He was an engineer or conductor on the

this city. The met, somehow, somewhere,
we are not prepared to say That it was
a case of love at first sight, or a gradual
awakening to the realization of the passion
amour, we are not prepared to say-not
knowing. They corresponded-many let
t.rs passed between them; they met occa-
sionally, and renewed and sealed their
VOWS of eternal fidelity and love. They
were engaged; the ceremony was to have
taken place ere many moons; but will new
er occur now; it cannot; the expectant
bridegroom is under the daises. A brother
of the young lady is clerk in one of our dry
| goods stores on second street. The evening
before last, he approached his EN- ployer, ask
de him for $20.and told him he would have
to go to Centralia with his sister, to attend
| the funeral of her betrothed husband.
Then the cause of death became known.
The lover had received letter only day or
two before from his affianced in this city,
the contents of which are known to us, but
had such an effect upon him thathe folded
it up, put all his earthly affairs in shape, land
went down to the river and drowned him
self. A telegram was sent to his Alliance
in this city. oniW ednesday last, and she,
with her brother, went to Centralia to at
tend the funeral. The body was not re-
covered until one o'clock yesterday, The
secret of this sad suicide we know not, but
we are informed that thesyoung lady on re-
ceiving the telegram informing her of the
facts, was nearly frantic. The young lady
is well known in this city.-DdUeapor
