oh can it be that Eliza's gone,
No more to SEX her loved ones here,
That her bright face like morning dawn,
Hath risen TO better sphere?
How strange it secms-and yet lis SO;
-, The precious life which God had given
TOO good to stay on earth below,
was called again to rest in heaven.
IT'S hard to bear that one so young,
so gentle, kind and good should leave
Her parents fond; for oh. no tongue
Can tell how much for her they grrvc!

Dearest Lizzie, thou hast left us;
We thy loss most deeply feel
But It's God that hath bereft us,
lie can all our sorrows heal.
Little Lizzie was our darling
Pride of all our hearts at home,
But the angels came and whispered,
Dearest Lizzie, do come home.
No, we could not keep our darling
Any longer here to DWELL
For we know that it was better
TO submit to His kind will
So we gave her up to Jesus,
And he took her in His arms,
For He blesses little children,
And will keep them from all harm.

ARREST OF MRS. NoRRIs. Mary Norris,
who was indicted by the Grand Jury, at the
present term of court, on the charge of having
poisoned her husband, Nicholas Norris, was ar
rested in York, Pa, last Saturday. She sub
mitted to the officers with the utmost GOODNESS,
and although aware that she could not be
brought back to Hartford county without re-
QUESTION from the Governor, she asked to be
taken there Immediately. The York authorities
telegrapbed to Bel Air, as soon as the arrest
was made and Sheriff Whiteford at once started
to Annapolis to get q requisition, but met the
York officials with the prisoner at Baltimore,
and brought Mrs. Norris to Bel Air ;ail Satur-
day night The alleged crime occurred in July,
1881. Nicholas Norris, the husband of Mary
Norris whilst journeying to Baltimore with his
market wagon, from his farm near NorrisvlIe,
was taken sick, and attributed his sickness to
some biscuit prepared by his wife for him to
eat during the trip, remarking that he believed
| they were poisoned A few days after his re-
turn home he died The deceased, it is said,
was jealous of his wife, whom he suspected of
intimacy with man named Sullivan, employed
on the farm. After his death Mrs Norris sold
out and removed to York, where she has been
| living with Sullivan. Mr.. Norris's friends, sus.
pccting he had been poisoned, made several eff
forts TO have Mrs. Norris indicted, but hitherto
| without avail. The prisoner is a woman of
rather prepossessing appearance, about thirty
years of age. She appears exceedingly anxious
to have the trial over, and is confident of cstab-
fishing her innocence Her father, Mr.. Richard
Mcdonald, is a wel-to do and highly resprcta-
two children have been living with Mr.. Me-
Donald since their fathers death. Mrs. Norris
has retained Col. Herman Stump as her counsel.
The case has been continued until the next
February term of Court. In the meantime

a Review OF the Condition Of the Lave
ea coal and Mining Comuanv

A Review OF the Condition Of the Lave
"a Coal and Mining Company.
Extracts from the annual report of the
Laveia mining company show the con-
dition OF the company on January Isf,
1882, about as follows:
The company was organized in the
fall of 1879, with capital stock of $780,
900, or one thousand shares Of one hun
dred dollars each Since its organiza-
ton it has acquired By purchase and To-
cation seven hundred and sixty acres of
coal lands on which It has expended
about $4,000 in developing work and
taking out coal, having taken out and
sold nearly coal enough topay the above
expense. The coal for all purposes is
the finest west of the Allegheny noun
tains and exists in almost unlimited
quantities.
The company now owns eleven silver
mining claims in the Elk mountain, Sa-
guach and San Juan mining districts,
also one-third TO two thirds interest in
each of five other mining claims in said
districts, ON all of which they have ex-
pended about three thousand dollars in
developing work. All of its mines
show good mineral bearing matter and
most of them true fissure veins. some of
which assay very high and now show
ore in paying quantities. Il has ex-
pended between six and seven hundred
shares of its stock in the purchase of
property, and has found it necessary on
account of its accumulated possessions
to increase its capital stock TO the max
imum allowed by the lenses under which
it was organized,-a 900 shares of 500
each.
On January /, 1882, it held unsold
1927 shares ofits stock, the balance hay-
ing been sold and expended as before in
Dictated 1t is intending and preparing
to do a large amount of developing
work during the coming mining season,
with hattering prospects of good yield
of silver and all The coal it can find mar
ket for. The officers for the present
year are: J. Jay Buck, president; j. NJ.
Griffith, vice president; C. A. Leighton,
secretary; w. II. Ingerman, treasurer.
The stock is principally owned by our
own citizens and is in the hands of men
that mean business, and We Predict a
flattering future for the company.

Homeless waits.

Tuesday afternoon there arrived in
Emporia from Topeka by way of the
Santa Fe, three children, the Oldest of
whom was boy aged about 10 years,
and his two little sisters. one twelve and
the other eight years of age. Their
wTeiched and forlorn appearance at
tracted the attention of Agent Tor
rington, at the depot, and upon learning
from the boy that he and his sisters had
started out to purchase government
land, and that the sum of their financial
resources was s1.15, he reported the case
TO the mayor who ordered the marshal to
care for the ragged little waits who were
lodged in the jail over night and this
morning taken to the poor farm to await
developments. The boy said their faith
er lived in Miller county, Missouri, and
that his name was A. BogArd. The
children were wretchedly filthy and
ragged, and from what can be learned of
them have been tramping through Kan
sas and the Indian Territory for some
months We are glad to know that
these unfortunate wanderers have fallen
into such kindly hands as those of Eph
Brown.
