rightly spoken of as premature; yet
there can be little doubt that his life
extended considerably beyond the aver

number is indeed astonishing of whom
there is no record save that they died

eighth son Of George Ill, who lived .
little more than four years; or Of prince
Alfred, his younger brother, who lived
less than two. To go back to the
Stuarts, Anne gave birth to seventeen
children, of whom the greater number
were stillborn, of the remainder only
one survived infancy, and he was
carried of at the age Of IL.
Anne herself was one Of the
eight children of James III by his first
wife, Mary being the only other who
survived the period of infancy. By
Mary Of Modena James had six more
children, all of whom died in infancy,
except the pretender and Maria
Louisa, the latter of whom did not COM

Charles, though he met with q violent
death, was the longest lived, save one,

soon follow unless checked. The
quickest and surest way is to take
Chamberlain Cough Remedy in full
doses. 1t has in many instances
checked cold in single day, and if
not taken in time to completely check
it at once. it will greatly relieve the at
tack and insure cure in less time than

PArILLION, January PA terrible
tragedy was enacted atthe farm of Patrick
Buckley, three miles southeast Of this place,
at an early hourthis morning, In which John
Bradford came to his death by the hand OF
Jesse McCarty. Bradford was chopping
wood on Buckley % land. The cold weather
impeded progress of his work, and
he sub-let 3 portion Of the work to jesse
McCarty AMI Michael Cain. These two
men felled large oak tree, which Brad
ford claimed to have reserved for his own
use. When Bradford saw the men
fell this tree he went to them and re-
monstrated, ordering them to cease work
upon the fallen tree. This the men re-
fused to do, when Bradford sought to en-
force his commands, rushing upon McCsrty

Carly was in the act of trimming the limbs
from the disputed tree, and, seeing he

within reach Of his axe, but the warning
was UNDECIDED. AS Bradford was on the
point Of crushing McCarty with his power

neck, severing the jugulsr vein
and almost decapitating him. The

The only important witness before the cor
oner's jury was Cain, the man at work with
McCsrty when the deed was performed. He
testified strongly in favor Of the defendant,
but in spite Of his assertions that the defend
ant acted only in self-defense, the jury
found that Bradford came to his death by
blow from an axe in the hands of Jesse Nc
Carly, and that the act was willful.
