AT fernando, Miss, on yesterday, an
old negro named Bob Dockery ran across
the railroad track as the up train was
approaching, and falling, was run over
and killed by the locomotive. Bob had
in anti-War times been the slave Of Mr..
Henry DOckery, and the old darkey was
respected by all who knew him. The
engineer Of the train was not to blame
in any particular, as the death Of the
negro was caused by his own imprudence
and the accidental falling on the track.

Two EstImabIe Young Men Drowned
ia Lake COmOrn, DeSOtO County,
Mississippi.
Yesterday a party of young men from
fernando, Miss, and vicinity we're at
Lake Comorn, some twelve miles north
west of the above town, on a fishing ex-
cursion Ben Smith was in a leaky
skif by himself, and finding the water
gaining on him, as he was ia the middle
of the lake, he cried out for help. Victor
Monroe, Shelly Rice and Willie Morgan
went to his aid in a skif. AS they
nesred Ben Smiths skif he leaped from
it and landed on the edge of the other
boat, turning it over. Willie Morgan,
aged eighteen years, and son Of Judge
Morgan, of the State Senate, left the
skiff and swan toward the bank. As be
neared it he was hailed by Mr.. Robin.
son, who asked if he was able to make
the bank. Willie Morgan answered thai
he was not, and Mr.. Robinson plunged in
to his assistance. AS he approached be
told him there was no danger, but not tC
grab him and he would save him. Willie
Morgan said he would not, but as he wal
sinking he made a lunge fer Mr.. Robin
son and sank Immediately. While this
was progressing Victor Monroe, Shelby
Rice and Ben Smith were holding on t
the bottom of the upturned skiff in TIT
middle of the lake. Several young mel
swan out to them and helped them NJ
on the skif, then they commenced tow
ing it ashore. AS they neared land Vic
tor Monroe seemed to be insane. He crieC
out to the boys on the bank to come 10 ant
save them, yet he was perfectly safe
In a few seconds he threw his hands W
in the air, fell off the skif aud sank. As
he went down, one Of the boys seized BIZ
vest, but it gave way, and the u%nfortu
nate boy disappeared beneath the waters
After awhile, by diving and with the aic
of hooks, the bodies of Willie Morgan
aud Victor Monroe were recovered, bu
life was extinct. The sad occurrence,
has cast a gloom over fernando, anC
the bereaved parents and relatives of tt
drowned youths receive tho sympathy q

} youths of promise, and we're highly ri
spected On account Of their many goo

The t~elegraphic news in yesterday
mornings journals contained the fol-
lowing brief announcement: Harriet
Msrtineau, an English authoress, died
last night in London, England"
Miss Martineau was born in 1902 at
Norwich, England, and was a descend
ant of a HuguenOt family; has been a
most prolific writer on a wide range of
subjects from theology and positivism
to sketches of travel. Miss M~artipeau's
earliest work was Devotional Exercises
for the Young. This was followed by a
series of popular tales, such as Christ
mas Day, The Rioters, Mary Campbell,
etc. She visited the United States in
1885, and published on her return to
England, Society in America and Re-
Prospect of Western Travel. These
we're followed by other novels and sto-
ries, Deerbrook, The Hour and the Man,
etc, an Introduction to the History Of
England daring the Thirty Years Peace,
an abridged and free translation Of
Comics Positivism, and many other
miscellaneous works as we'll as contri-
buttons to the English reviews and
magazines. Miss Ma%rtineau's writings
are pleasant, her style 10 lively, almost
piquant. She is, however, by no means
accurate in statement or logical in rea-
soniug, as is ~abundantly shown by her
sketches OF America.

Not Our O'Mara.

P.L. O'Meara is lawyer in Davenport
and P. O'Mara is a lawyer in this city, and
the Democratic candidate for States At
torney. The two names often get mixed
by people who are only acquainted with
one of the parties-as was the case yester-
day in which Mr.. C'Meara, of that city,
was engaged in suit, during which one
of his witnesses swore that his servant
girl had swallowed $40 worth of cast iron
knives and forks. Our Mr.. O'Mara had
nothing to do with the case, and it is be-
lieved that the item in the Union of this
morning was only meant as slur on our
popular Democratic candidate for States
Attorney.

Commendable.

In its sober senses, and when not infu-
enced by jealousy of The ARGUS, or par
tisan feeling the Union can say a good
thing. The article in that paper this
morning on Street Rowdyism" will COM
mend itself to. every good citizen and
property owner, as a reflex of the general
public sentiment. The sooner the rowdy
class, the young ones referred to in the
Union's article, and those older, and some
who profess kind of responsibility and,
also, men who keep places where this
class congregate understand that their
actions will not be tolerated. the better
it will be for themselves and for the city.
The influence that the Union can have 10
this direction by not pandering to viciat-
ed taste, either for party or pelf can
not be lightly estimated aud we are
pleased to see it thus uniting with the Ar
Gus for good order and responsibility.
