Col. E. NJ. Beardsley died at Lake
City last Saturday night and was bur-
led Sunday afternoon. Deceased was
for while a resident of the eastern
part of the county, near Sharon, and
was well known. During the war he
was Colonel of an Illinois regiment
in the Union army, and vas
gallant and fearless soldier. Two
months since he went to Lake City to
engage i'm the real estate business and
soon afterwards was taken sick with
erysipelas, and from the ravages of
this disease he died. His wife and sew
Pral children were present at his death.
Elder \. II. Mulkey resides two miles
east Of town, with his family, and for
some time they have obtained water
from cool. flowing spring, for culinary
purposes. Such wonderfully invigorat-
ing and beneficial results have been ex-
perienced by the members of the family
since using the water, that Mr.. Mulkey
is forced to the conclusion that the
cool, bubbling spring water contains
medical properties. The land on which
the spring is located is the property of
\. 5. McCiearey, and he has written
to n Topeka chemist to have an analysis
made. The Hot Springs of Arkansaw
and DeSOtO's famous Fountain of Youth
may possibly be eclipsed by this latest
Barber county discovery. and the owners
of those fountains had better look to
their laurels.
