Obituary..

Died, at the residence Of Col. G. p.
Smith, in lola, Kansas, of typhoid
fever, Monday afternoon. Oct, Sd, 1854.
Miss Maggie Ackley, better known in
this community Us Miss Maggie It'd
man, aged seventeen years the 26th
day of August last, after an illness OF
fourteen days. Miss Ackley was born
in Conandague, New York, and was
adopted when twenty-six months old
BIZ her mothers brother, Mr.. Henry
Tidman, In whose family she has ever
since resided, receiving from her uncle
and aunt the care and nurture of an
own child, and returning to them the
love, respect and obedience of a daugh-
ter. But four weeks ago Mrs. Tidman
departed this life, leaving the cares
and responsibilities of the home upon
the tender and only too willing hands
of little Maggie who, with courage,
skill and agility worthy of one twice
her age, put the house in order, and
by her cheerful ways and words shed
a flood of sunlight over the SO recently
stricken home. Not content with her
home duties, she sought opt Q sick
neighbor, and for whole day toiled
as if with iron fingers. that she might
bring comfort to the afflicted. The
task was too greatand the next day
she became herself the object of solicit
tude on the partofher friends, and only
thereafter left her home to be carried
TO the grave. During her illness she
preserved her fortitude and cheerful
ness, even hiding from her attendants
/ the severity of her suffering.
She is dead, and deeply and sincerely
mourned by Il large circle of acquaint-
ancss and friends, while the few who
knew her real worth, her noble, gener-
GUS and impulsive nature, her loving
and confiding heart, are bowed down
with sorrow that cannot be assuaged.
Suspecting no vile in others she enter
tanned none herself, and was, in the
fullest sense, a child of nature, art
less and innocent, loving her friends
with warmth and tenderness that
could not fail to beget in return de-
votion in all true hearts little short of
idolatry. ~

East Deer Creek.

Oct. 5.-We have q newly organized
school district here, partly in Deer
Creek and partly in Usage township,
distant about IL miles from lola. No
name as pet adopted unless it be the
one we heard suggested, viz: Rolling
Green" which we think is pretty and
appropriate. The school house under
Mr.. Hardin's hands is rapidly APP
preaching completion, and will prob
ably be ready for occupancy by the
middle of October, which was the time
voted on at the annual school meeting
for the commencement of school, and
it would seem, as general rule, to be
best for directors to endeavor to do ac-
cording as the district vote, and so
avoid the troubles that have beset the
path of direct,rs in our neighboring
district of Montevaie, which appears to
have the knack Of getting into diff
culties; and now after the district
had voted a male teacher, the direct
ors deliberately proceed to hire one of
the female persuasion. To this the
people take exceptions and threaten to
serve an injunction on the teachers
fund" if she is allowed to begin the
school. thus compelling the directors
to pay the teacher out Of their own
pockets. She says she is safe enough,
as she has contract made out and
signed by the board, who are respon-
sible men, and she intends to begin
school at the time specified therein,
and the end is not yet.

Commissioners, Meeting.


At the regular meeting of the Board
of County commissioners held last
Monday, after the routine work of
considering bills was gone through,
the first matter of interest was the
claim of allowance for care of insane
pauper ia Geneva township. This
case has attracted some attention from
the fact that heretofore the board has
allowed bills for her keeping. At this
session of the board, however, strong
remonstrance against allowing the
claim was put in. signed by many
good men from that township. It was
considered of sufficient Importance to
demand a hearing, SO the board gave
notice that the case will be heard be-
fore them at their meeting Nov. 18th,
at which time both those claiming and
those protesting against the allowance
Of the claim, will be heard.
For the poor farm three bids were re-
ceived and one came in after the time
specified, making four in all. There
being no great difference the board
concluded to make no change, and the
contract was given to MFR. r. B. Ar
mold.
Among other proceedings the COM
missioners, upon a request from the
township abolished the two voting
precincts in Marmaton. The town.
ship board will select place of voting
and hereafter elections will be held at
one place. thereby saving the useless
expense of holding two.
