don't believe there is anything wrong
in such transaction, it seems that lie
number three was effectually nailed.
And as on these three great lies he
has hinged about all his slander it
leaves hlm virtually very little to
blow about.
We hope our readers will pardon us
for taking so much space to answer
these malicious falsehoods, but we
wanted merely to show bow utterly
fiimsy his charges were when seen in
their true light. We don't care to
check Kepler's course; we feel conf
dent it is driving votes to the Judges
support. His vile slander has gone so
far that it has got beyond the bounds
Of even political mud.slingiug, and it
may become public necessity to put
legal check to such 1sgrant libel.

THIS from the Franklin Ne1cs of
Monday, is just a trifle suggestive,
amt it? "Col. H. B. Plumer was
among the callers at the White House
on Friday. A press dispatch from
Washington says that this visit, the
second since his appointment as Ma.
val Officer, was made at the request Of
the President. His commission has
not yet been issued, but there is no
doubt that it will be made out in due
time. 1t has not yet been authorita-

KILLED AT HIS POsT OF Duty
The sad news that wreck had occur
red at Wilson's Grade, FIVE miles west
of here, and that Mr. Charles d. Dooley,
of this city, had lost his life, caused
much sorrow and alarm. on last Mon
day night. Mr.. Enos Mcdonald was
backing helper engine out to Cherry
Run. He was followed by 2 Bird Divi-
sion passenger engine, which was re-
turning to Cumberland, Having brought
an extra section down In the evening.
To the passenger engine was attached
caboose. with Mr.. Anthony Hedges,
conductor, and Charley Dooley, brakes
man. Noticing the unusual speed with
which they were moving, Mr.. Hedges
sent Charley over the caboose to warn
the engineer Of danger. ahead Just as
he reached the end Of the car, the spec
ial engine and the helper collided, both
engines going down a steep embank-
ment. Mr.. Dooley was caught beneath
the tender and it is supposed, instantly
killed. When found he was considera-
bly, crushed, and had his neck broken.
The other eight hands connected with
the two engines escaped with slight
bruises and rough shaking. up. The
body of Charles Dooly arrived here at
10 o'clock Monday night. The deceas-
ed had only returned home from his
regular run at O'Clock on the evening
OF the dreadful accident. When called
for extra duty, he bid his wife cheer
full good-by, saying he would be back
sometime in the morning. Poor fell
low he little dreamed OF the terrible
fate awaiting him. He was an indus
trious young man, and his sad end has
been deeply lamented in this city. We
extend our proioundest sympathies to
the Borrowing wife, mother. sister and
loved ones.

| SICKNESS. There has not been 80
much sickness for years in this city, rs
at present. From every portion Of chr
city comes tidings OF sickness. The
young and hearty as well as the old and
inirm are on the list. There is no &C
counting for the condition OF affairs.
Soma are inclined to attribute matters
to our water supply This We think
absurd. Others seem to think the open,
changeable weather is doing the dam
age, to which opinion We incline. Cold.
ness is purifier Of the air, aud with
regular winter weather the heating and
cooling changes to which the body has
been subjected the past few months,
will cease, and ahealthful tone be given
to our community. A number of the az
flicted are convalescing. A few are
quite low, indeed, near deaths door.
We trust an Advise Providence Will
spare all such to loved ones and friends
Among those convalescing are Miss
Mamie Byers, Messrs. Jacob Gassman.
Will Chambers, Dave Myers, and j.
Braffman. Those who are considered
dangerously i'll are Messrs. Ed. Timber
lake and G. w. Boyer. Each have tn.
best medical skill to help to fight TIE
grim monster, and we pray God the,
may recover.

A CHEERFUL FACE GoNE.-Noise-
lessly the spirit Of Mr.. Harry d. Doll
winged its way from earth on Wednes-
day night. At the dead of mid might,
with loved ones bending DER him, he
passed away. Thursday morning the
faces of eur people showed their sorrow
over his death. For over week he suf-
fered great pains from that dreadful d.
sease, spinal naeninghtis. All that low
ing hearts and willing hands could do
did not stay Deaths visit. Harry was
known in almost every home in the city.
His genial, happy nature and friendly,
jovial disposition won the friendship Of
all who knew him. With a heart as
tender as woman's and manliness to
defend the weak, he had the grand
trait OF always being true to his friends.
All loved him all will miss him. Z His
happy, well-known laugh is hushed for
ever, and the grave hides his cheerful
face. We can weep with the mourning
parents. for we loved him too. He was
a dear friend, kind, true and loving,
and we can only remember his virtues.
The whole town mourns his death. As
the M. g. Band and the Odd Fellows
(of which organizations he was mem
ber) bore his remains to the silent city
Of the dead, more than one eye filed
with tears and more than one heart
heaved with emotion. We extended
deep and heartfelt sympathies to the
stricken parents, and pray God the sec
oDd son, who now lies dangerously i'll
with the same disease, may be spared to
them. Harry was about rs years old.
