A FORMER TowANDA FAMILY AFFLICTED.

A FORMER TOWANDA FAMILY AFFLICTED.
We take The following account of the acci-
dental drowning of Master LLOYD, only son
OF our former townsman, S. n. ASPINWALL,
ESQ.,, from the Hastings, (Minn.), Daily
Neavs, of June 4. The lad visited in this
place with his parents last year. The be-
reaved family have the hearty coincidence of
their many friends in this community:
Yesterday afternoon about half past three
O'Clock. the alarm was raised that Llopd AS
pinwall, The nine year old son of S. n. Aspin-
wall of the Foster House, had fallen into the
river from the fire engine pier at the foot OF
r. lsey street, and was drowned. The entire
circumstances relative to the sad calamity are
wrapt in mystery and for ever will be. Only
a short time fore the alarm, Lloyd went in
to The dining room of The hotel, and asked for
a lump of sugar, which was given him by
one of the girls. He then ran out, aud that
was the last seen of him alive. The first in
stance relative TO his drowning, is recorded
by one George Oakes, young man, laborer
OIL the wheat barge at Nan lnWeSens eleVa-
i0r. OAkes informed us that having no work
TO do yesterday afternoon, he was lesurely
walking down the railroad track, when he
noticed two small arms extended from the
surface of The water aud almost Immediately
disappear. AT the same time he saw straw
hat Seating on the water. Marshall Lloyd
circumstance across the river, and he lmme-
diatev repaired IN boat to this ide, and
did ali within his power TO find the body.
Marshall says that when he noticed the arms
extended from The water apparently for the
last time, there were several men on the rail
way track, and had they had courage enough
TO have made the attempt Lloyd could have
been saved. On the other hand, Cakes claims
q ere was not another person in sight when
he noticed the afflir, but he soon saw Two or
three man and called to them. They secured
the hat, which proved 20 be Lloyd's, aud by
this only were Che parents of Lloyd conN1nc-
ed that it was he that was drowned. Ii
would appear chat Lloyd, Immediately after
leaving Che hotel, went down alone and un-
seen to tue river and by some mishap fell in.
Mr.. Swingler aud Marshal Lloyd got out
boats and commenced dragging for the body.
but at late hour last night they had not Sc
cured il. 1t is apparent that there was a care
less indifference manifested by the men on
this side Che river who were first witnesses OF
the TRAGEDY. If they had possessed even the
courage TO have shouted for help, Lloyd might
have been saved.
Llold was an unusually bright little fellow,
"smart as a whip" being the title unanimou
lv bestowed upon him. He was great fa-
Vorite with The guests Of the hotel and the
idol of his home. Always Il leader among his
many playmatcs, he will be missed from their
circle with sadness that will only grow
deeper IS they grow older and never surren'
der from their tender hearts where 1t is now
engraved.
His parents and sisters will have the deep
est sympathy of Hastings in their atfictlon.

Women Gambling at Saratoga.

One Of the recent amuSementS or
group of ladies at the Grand Union has
been buying French pools on the daily
races. They do not go to the track,
but meet in the reception-room and
agree on the horse. They admit they
scarcely know a horse from mule. but
are governed by their intuition. Rath-
er, this secret power resides in one
little lady, who takes the days pro-
gramme and selects the horse. Size
does not select the favorite. That, she
says, would be using her judgment.
and she has greater faith in her intui-
ton. She selects the horse and the
other ladies buy and the ticker senls
them the results, while they nurse their
excitement in the reception-room dur
inc the races. The strangest part is
that so far she had not made any mis-
takes, and the ladies are radiant over
their successes. The ladies who do
not buy amuse themselves by picking
out the winners and choosing the COM
bination. One of these the other day
chose a successful combination which,
if she had bought, would have brought
her 81 500. Naturally she can but re-
gard it as the lost opportunity OF her
life. Others are governed by signs and
omens. One lady rose disheartened be-
cause she dreamed she was going to be
surprised. Another, having bought
pool on Saunterer, grieved that she
could see no malforned person to
touch, as that would surely bring luck,
and insists now that the commission
caused her to lose her money. The
prospect of seeing Hindoo running
filled the stand with a iuttering crowd.
and the ladies were catching at every
familiar face for points. Tho result
has been amusing, and somewhat
dampened their confidence in the judg-
ment of their male friends, as in the
first race the dark horse came in with
high-paying pools that would havo
bought summer dress at Rulings or
Connelly's, and their money is on the
favorite. Letter to ". Z. World

Greeley and Poe.

A writer in Il Utica, New York journ-
oil, says Poe and Greeley occasionally
met, and the latter often befriended the
former. for he saw how i'll adapted
such a man was to contend with pow
erty. Greeley was born poor, and could
live on crust; was a typesetter by
trade, and if he failed as an editor, he
could fail back on labor. Poe, on the
other hand, was "a bred gentleman. and
had the high-toned pride cultivated in

scorned his Bohemian associates, and
only poverty kept him from hurting re-

one on whom he could rely for aid in

After Poe's death, there was a de-
mand for his autographs, and. among
others, applications were made to
Greeley.

Fear of Disease.

While the plague was raging in Bu-
enos Ayres, the grave-diggers bore
charmed lives. OF the three hundred
men so employed, not one died of the
disease. 1t has often been noticed
that during pest;lential diseases, ply
sicians, undertakers, nurses and grave
diggers. whose business compels con-
slant liability to infection, have usually
escaped in far greater ratio than their
numbers would warrant The charm
of this immunity from the prevailing
scourge is very simple. They are not
scared. They are positive to the dis
ease, and repel its attacks. Fear is a
great ally of death. Whoever is afraid
of disease is in a negative condition.
and really invites its approach. And
thus it is the world over. The brave

times.

fetal reduction of the temperature of
the sick-room, which was early men
toned as among the means which had
been employed for increasing the COM
fort of the sufferer, is only single in

be comforted by the reflection that
nothing which skill and knowledge can

A Battle Ground Under Cultivation.

Hundreds and thousands of old Con-
federate soldiers remember Missionary
Ridge, near Chattanooga. 1t is the
site OF one of the most decisive battles
of tho war-rag ged, rocky, steep, poor
in soil as any part of the table land,
and was until recently regarded as
worthless. For what purpose men
held it was not known by themselves
or anybody else. Three or four years
ago its lands would not bring over
two to four dollars an acre. Now the
ridge is covered with orchards, and the
profits are such that no land can be
bought for less than forty or fifty dol
lars an acre. 1t is thus old ideas give
way before new conditions and new in
fusions of brains and energy.-Saraa-
