There's another mound in the graveyard;
Another d EAR oae lies
Crowned with the leautiful flowers,
Under the changing skies.
Gcne-in the golden morning,
Ia the first swees lush of dawn,
In the midst Of his boyish dreamings,
His hopes and his yisions-gone
With eager feet he traversed
The redient opening way,
When the fearful stygian blackness,
Swept sudden across his way.
Thy brief, bright journey ended,
with it's labors few and light,
The shade OF thy earth cross vanished,
In thy radiert, upward flight
Rest gentle Eddie-spirit,
Rejoice in thy glad released
In Gods eternal sunlight,
Rest in thy Lingdom Of peace.

had been whipped by a stranger. The
dog ran into Mrs. Guckert's back yard
and took possession ofan empty kennel
The woman went out when she heard
the whining and when she approached
the kennel the dog bounded out and
savagely attacked her.
He jumped up and seized her by her
right arm, below the elbow, fastening
his teeth in her flesh and intlicting d
large wound. The flesh was torn
nearly to the bone, and bled profusely
TIE wound was bound up and the
woman taken to the office of DR.. Kuhn,
who applied proper remedies and eau
terized 1t. 1t was month in healing
and the doctor says he thought she
was out of danger. Nothing more was
heard of the case until yesterday. the
woman visited her brother, John Mar
tin, in this city on Monday. She com.
planned of great exhaustion. On Tues
day she took to bed and on Wednesday
DIR. Kuhn was sent for.
He says that all her symptoms were
those of hydrophobia. The least jar
throws her into spasms and itreqnired
several men to hold her in bed.
The last water she drank was last
evening. She is now unable TO swallow.
This evening she is greatly exhausted
and no hopes are entertained for her re.
covery. She is conscious at times and
complains of excruiating thirst.
She thinks she is dying of heart dis
ease. The dog was not supposed to bC
mad, but killed at once when it was
learned he had bitten the woman.

A slight ExcIfamanr.

Quite crowd was attracted yester.
day afternoon on King street above
Third, by war of words between o
huckster and a colored woman. The
woman stated that she had bought some
cabbage from the man, and gave him a
half dollar, out Of which to take his
pay. He returned her change for q
quarter, which she refused to accept
and called on police officer to settle
the dispute. The woman returned the
cabbage, and demanded the half dol
lar, which the man refused to give, and
the officer was evidently in dilemma
how TO decide. She was positive that
she had given the man q half dollar
and he was equally certain that it was
only quarter. After cOntendiug fol
some time the woman went away, nc
doubt thinking that the dealer had
beat her out of a quarter.
