Mrs. George w. Glidden, after an illness OF
some FIVE months, died on Saturday afternoon,
and on the afternoon OF the following day
post norton examination was had OF her case,
conducted by DR.. A. W. Hendrck, her attend
ing physician, DR.. Hathaway assisting.
1t was found that the liver was in normal
condition with the exception OF indications OF
some torpidity; the heart was slightly atropheia
and fiabby, with about two ounces OF secretions
in the pericardium, evidence of percardtis.
The lungs were much affected; in the upper
portion Of each there was much breaking down
OF the lung structure; some other portions
we're heavily engorged. Thus was exhibited all
the yirulence Of quick consumption. The
stomach was highly infamed and the upper
portion of it was somewhat liberated. But the
chief difficulty in the case and the prime Cause
Of all, as had been anticipated by her physician,
was in the 1sophague, the tube passing to the
stomach; the lower portion of it, Immediately
above its union with the stomach, for the length
OF three inches was infamed and liberated, al
most filed with vicious growths. The esoph-
agus, also, in this region was much enlarged
and indurated. The condition OF the stomach
and OF the pericardlum, spoken Of above, re-
suited from the affection in the esophagus
from sympathy on account OF the close prex-
unity Of the parts. The condition OF the lungs
is accounted for in the impoverished state of
the blood for want OF ability to take nour-
ishment.
g The funeral services were held on Monday
afternoon at their residence. The remains
were inferred in the burying-ground east OF
this village. \ husband and two sons are left
to mourn their loss, yet they have the sym
pathy OF many friends. Mrs. G. was highly
esteemed Christian lady, well-known and sp-
preciated in a large circle. She died in the
hope Of the better life.

CYCLONE IN EATON COUNTY.
CHRLorrE, April ia very heavy rain and
destructive gale prevailed last night, dong a
great amount OF damage in all parts Of the
county. In Chester township the storm az
sumed the proportions of a cyclone, extending
over tract four miles long and nearly half o
mile vide, and passing over the farm Of John
Ottany destroyed 3 new barn and several small
out buildings, nearly destroying fne peach
and apple orchard. The farm of John Shaw,
adjoining, was cleared o: two barns and nearly
all his fruit trees, involving heavy loss. 1t
then entered the large forest, teasing up trees,
so that the track ls plainly marked for several
miles. The damage to standing timber is con-
siderable. In Walton the storm was severe
and considerable damage was done. One barn
was struck by lightning and destroyed, killing
two COWS and several sheep.

The Libel Business does not seem to pan out
we'll in the way Of repleuishing the depleted
pockets OF the plaintiffs. The suit Of George
II. Murdoch, editor OF the Berrien County
Journal, against Fred McOmber, editor Of the
Berrien Springs Era, for libel, for raking up an
old indictment for forgery found in the records
OF the Berrien county circuit court of thirty
years ago, and which is said to have ended by
the entering Of a nolte prosequ,, has just been
decided adversely to Murdoch the jury having
returned verdict No Cause Of Action" This
result puts the costs Of the suit upon Murdoch,
as well as the humiliation OF defeat.
Mr.. Murdoch was the democratic candidate
for Secretary OF State in 1878. During the
canvass the indictment" was published in the
Post and Tribune and from that paper copied
into the Ezra edited by McOmber, with corr
ments. The same document, or an epitome OF
it, was also pablshed in the Lansing Republi-
can with comments. Mr. Murdoch sued both
papers for libel. He has been beaten in one
and will undoubtedly be in the other case
Murdoch is, and has been, persistent Office
seeker and could brook no opposition. He
rushed into the courts to wreak vengeance on
his opponents. But jury Of his peers pro-
nounced against HIM, without allowing him the
satisfaction OF having been technically SANDER
ed, as they did IN the cases against Ingersoll.
But the latter's prosecutors were lawyers, and
the court probably thinking it its duty to afford
the members Of the bar some protection, in
structed to find technical libel, out mulcted the
plaintiffs in the costs. The libel business does
not seem to pan out well.

Of being turned from house and home, because
OF the mortgage upon their farms which this
