day last was peaceful and orderly and attended
by little excitement. The ticket nominated at

Ing week was elected. The vacancy in the pri-
mary ticket caused by the withdrawal of Mr.. I.
Witt, for the reason that he was about to re-
move his residence from the Second Ward in
which he had been nominated to the First
Ward was left blank, and Mr.. ]. w. Abby, a
popular and efficient former councilman, was
voted for in his stead and elected.
Those who were unwilling to vote for the
ticket for councilmen nominated at the prima-
~ election, voted for what was printed as the
Reform Conservative Ticket" The names Oh
it for the LIST Ward were Messrs. J. A. Cochran
w. L. Lushbaugh, A. M. Bruce, P. N Powell, w
B. Kayser, and John W. Bryan; and in the q
Ward were Messrs. John B. Evans, I. A. Bled

DEATH OF YOUNG LADY, AT THE p. p. 4
B. INsTITUTIoN.-With sincere sorrow we re-
cord the death, on the 23rd inst, of Miss ELSIE
c. JONES, who for several years has been at the
head of our Sewing Room. Though she had
been o little sick for several weeks, not until a
few days ago did the symptoms assume seri-
Gus form. Two hours before her death occurred,
no such termination was anticipated, and SO
rapidly did she sink at last that her death was
a great shock to the household.
Miss Jones graduated from the deaf-mute de-
partment in 1873, and soon thereafter was ap-
pointed to the position she SO satisfactorily
filled up to the time of her death. Unusually
intelligent, with heart full of sympathy and
kindness, and possessing ever cheerful spirits,
she had endeared herself to pupils and officers
to an uncommon extent; and now she is missed
as few could be. Long before her last sickness,
she had made preparation for the future, and
several years ago connected herself with the
Lutheran Church of this place.
Agreeably to the wish of her friends, her body
was sent to her home in Shenandoah county,
for burial, the pupils and teachers accompany
ing it to the depot.-Goodson Gazette.
