To MENDOZA. MIR. James HI. Caba-
mis-, chairman of the Board of Supervi-
sors of the town of Smelser, and Mr..
Joseph Brandon, and old and very
highly esteemed citizen of that town,
accompanied by Miss Annie Brandon,
daughter of the latter and very esti-
mable young lady, were in the city
Tuesday, for the purpose of having
proper medical authority pass their
judgement upon the mental condition
of that young lady, who was examined
by Drs. Barber and Hassell, and pro-
nounced insane. Messrs. Cabanis and
Brandon onWednesday accompanied her
to the hospital at Mendoza, where we
hope that proper treatment may restore
her to perfect health. Miss Brandon's
health and mental faculties were some
time ago seriously impaired by financial
troubles, which through no fault of his
own, visited her father, one of the most
honorable and highly respected citizens
of Smclser, and whose family in this great
trouble which has come upon them,
have the heartfelt sympathy of the en-
tire community.

DIED.-Will ii. Miller most excel
lent and promising young man of about
twenty years died last Thursday in Ha-
eel Green. During the last four years
he has been q student in the State Uni
versity from which he would have grad
uated with high honors next June. He
came from Madison about six weeks
ago on account of his failing health, but
medical aid could do nothing to relieve
him and he rapidly sank to rest. His
death is keenly felt by all who knew him
either ut home or abroad, his unusual
ability and uprightness of character
never failing to win those who valued
true worth. The funeral sermon was
preached last Sabbath in the Methodist
church at Hazel Green. by John Bas-
com. President of the State University.
IMPORTANT ARRIVAL The home of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. Chandler, of this
city, the former occupying posi-
ton on the editorial stan OF this

since which important event we OBJ
serve that the care-worn expression on
the usually genial countenance of Bro.
Chandler has given way to an express
sion of such JOY and gladness as only a
father knows when he first realizes that
he is indeed father. To the father,
the mother and the little daughter. the
HERALD extends its heartiest congrat-
ulations; and we take this occasion to
express the hope that Bro. Chandler
may soon so far recover from the Joy
Gus shock, rs TO be able to resume his
editorial duties.

Grand Union Excursion.

First Methodist and Davenport Churches
 to Shelter Island.
 Between five and six. hundred persons went on the union excursion of the First M. E. and Davenport churches yesterday to Shelter Island on the steamer Elm City. There were about thirty five persons from the Union mission at Cedar Hill and also the American band, which discoursed fine music at intervals throughout the day. The boat left Belle dock at g o'clock and the sail down and back was very enjoyable, the sun being which rendered the glare on the water less intense, while the breeze though strong was cool and invigorating. A smart shower came up little after 12 o'clock, lasting but a short time and when the boat steamed up to the wharf at Shelter Island the sun was shining brightly. Many of the excursionists landed at the island, while many remained on the boat which went immediately over to Green port, where they disembarked and atrolled through the streets of the town. lE was expected that the boat would land at Dinah's Rock, but on Mon day the committee received word from the proprietor refusing permission. Ia this emergency they applied to the commit tee in charge of Shelter Island, who kindly allowed them to laHd, although against their rule after the first of July. Both churches were we'll represented. Among those pres ent from the First M. E. church were Isaac N. Damn, Charles A. and Charles L. Baldwin J. J. Matthias Lawyer Cooley. From the Davenport church were Deacon Pardee, Dea- con Brown, J. Douglas, M. M. Cover, Dsa- con Benedict and also MT. and Mrs Morrill, from Cedar Hill mission, Superintendt nt Thrasher from the Bethel, Clark Peck and Thomas Gardiner. The Rev. Mr. Goodsell and lady were present, but Rev. MT. Meserve was not present as he is spending the summer with his family at HarWinton. The boat ar- rived safely at o'clock, and many were the expressions of pleasure at the pleasant day and delightful sail.
