NICHOLASvJLLE, KY.-The project
ofestablishing Gas-works in Nicholas
Vile is receiving considerable attention.
1t is thought that If gas would pay In
Georgetown it would also pay here.
AURORA, IND.-The mangled re-
mains OF woman were found at the
railroad track near here on Sunday.
They were terribly mutilated, having
evidently been run over by half dozen
trains. The pieces Of garments were
taken to Mrs. William Cheek, who pro-
nounced them as having been worn by
Mrs. Susan Nolans, who had been work.
ing for her for the past week.
She was very poor, and obliged to OBJ
tain work wherever she could find any,
and sustained herself in this way. She
represented that she had been twice
married, both husbands alive and at
present living In Cincinnati. Her mother,
previous to her death, had also lived in
Cincinnati. The woman was addicted
to drinking, and was also a confirmed
Opium-eater, and consumed ten cents
worth Of the drug each day.
About four O'clock Saturday evening
she left for Lawrenoeburg, walking out
Of town on the railroad track. That
was the last seen of her until the ghastly
spectacle Of Sunday morning. 1t is
thought by some that she returned to
Aurora and procured whisky or opium
and attempted to walk to Lawrenceburg
later In the evening in an Intoxicated
condition and was run down and killed
by one Of the evening trains.

their children from the schools in conse-
quence. The health officer says there

Basin, as to probable or positive dam. |
