A Sad Calamity.

Our town was startled on Sunday evening
last by the announcement that Mrs. Henry,
wife of James Henry, of Henryville, this
county, was found in the cellar of their resi-
dence with her clothing burned off, her body
burned to a crisp, and she dying from the
severity of her hurts. Upon inquiry we
learned the particulars to be about as follows:
For some time the unfortunate lady, so well
known to many Of our citizens, has been
laboring under mental illness, and so strange
has her conduct been that, for quite time,
her friends have felt called upon to keep
watch over her movements. On the morn
ing in question, Sunday last) she seemed
somewhat improved and assisted in several
miner household matters. The family feel
ing it safe to do so, relaxed somewhat OF
their vigilance, when she stripping herself OF
her flannels, and putting on loose cotton
dress and under clothing went into the cellar.
The first indication of anything wrong was
the smell of smoke, which attracted her hus-
bands attention, and led him to search the
house for its cause. He first passed through
the upper part of the building but without
discovery. On descending to the lower floor
however, he saw smoke issuing from the eel
lar window, and on proceeding there found
his wife burned to crisp-insensible, but
still alive. DIR. Bush Of East Stroudsburs
was Immediately summoned to the case, bu
the work had been too effectually done to
leave room for hope, and the poor sufferer
expired very soon after his arrival. The
burning took place within few feet of ;
barrel of kerosene oil, and as everythin!
composing her dress was thoroughly con
sumed it is conjectured that before setting
fire to her clothing she had saturated then
with portion of the OIL Mrs. Henry wa
much thought off by all who knew her fo
her kindliness of disposition, cheerfulnes'
and ever readiness to minister to the needs
of suffering humanity. These sympathizet
deeply with her in the afflction from which
she has long been sufferer, and this sym
pathy will now fall with increased strength
upon those, who in her death, have been 81
sadly bereaved 1t is seldom indeed that w
are called upon to make record of so sad
case as this.

Painful Accident.

Our readers, both near and far, will be
panied to earn that our we'll known Street
Car Conductor, Mr. Jacob Houser, met with
a painful accident on Thursday last, and
which threatens to keep him confined to his
house for some days. While attending to
his duties around the Street Passenger Rail
road Company Coal dump on that day, he
missed his footing and fell from the trestling
and lighting on some rubbish laying below,
distance of some ten or twelve feet, receiv-
ed severe cuts and contusions on his head and
body He was Immediately rescued from
his uncomfortable position, and every atten-
ton and appliance, which medical skill could
devise, applied to his case, and we are glad
learn is improving as rapidly as the severe
nature of his hurts will admit Of We hope
to see him at his post soon again.
