Strong, Durable and Light. Self
Adjusting to Any Position.

The White Mountain Hammock Chsif
differs from, all other stationary or reclining
chairs in that it is better, stronger and
simpler, is adapted to the house, lawn,
porch or camp, and is just chuck full OF
quiet comfort and blessed rest. Is far su-
perior to the hammock in every way, and
can be put up go as to be always in the
shade.
By its peculiar construction it isbalancsd
in all positions, requiring no tastenings to
keep it in place. The toot.rest can be
quickly and easily adjusted to suit the short
eet or tallest persons. The seat is made OF
strong canvas, fitting perfectly the entire
length, without drawing the clothing tightly
around the body, thus making it much
cooler than a hammock; while the annoy.
asce Of catching buttons, tearing down the
ladies hair, or in any way displaying the
limbs is avoided.

The Strange Disappearance of A We
 man And Her Niece

The Strange Disappearance of Wo-
 man And Her Niece.
 SPRINGFIELD, Mass, June 30-About a year ago Mrs. Jane E. Tinker, good looking American woman, came here from Chester to keep boarders, leaving her husband, who was in poor health and unable to work, at Chester. She intended to establish herself here and then send for him. Soon after news came that MT. Tinker had shot himself dead He left note freeing her from all blame, saying he was discouraged and that as his disease could not be cured he thought it best to be out of the way. Thay had no children, but there was considerable property in Chester, little bank account and two farms. After the funeral Mrs. Tinker returned to Springfield, having with her 8 niece, Ada Burke by name. Mrs Tinker had always told her friends that she had no near relatives, therefore no little gossip was occa- stoned when it was known among the neigh bors that long-lost brother who gave his name as Edward Burke, who claimed to be father to Ada, suddenly appeared on the say that Burke, who came and went in the night, was dark-browed, evil looking character. Through bad bills and dishonest boarders Mrs. Tinker lost con- siderable money, became discouraged and put her boarding house in the hands of oth- CT parties. Three weeks ago she suddenly left to join Burke in New York, leaving debts of $200. No word has since been re- ceived from her, although number of mysterious communications have been received written in other handwriting and signed Mrs. E. B. Tinker. The first ot these came to Judge of Probate Copeland, dated Jeosey City Heights, June 15, and was signed by the niece. It stated that the aunt and father Burke were both very i'll. No direction given. The letter was written with lead pencil About the same time the party who has Mrs. Tinker's house received @ similar letter saying the aunt was very sick and that the doctor would be able to say in few days whether she could live. June g Judge Copeland re- ceived second letter by the same hand and on the same paper as before. It requested information about the Chester property and gave as the address 105 Maiden Lane, N. Y, care of Edward Burke. The New York di rectories give no Edward Burke to correspond with the above address. It is strongly sus- pected by Judge Copeland and others that there has been foul play. Meantime the police of the two cities are making careful ipvestiCatiOna

 Waiting Quietly for the End Which is

 From Pain Hut Lfstless and Averse
 to all Exertion N.i
 MT. McGREaoR, N. Y., June 30.-General Grant passed the afternoon quietly. He oc- cupied himself writing for nearly an hour and then slept to make up for the effort. On awakening about o'clock he was dressed, but he spent the time as he had while in his himself in no way Dr. Douglass has been credited with statements in regard to the outlook for the general and what the doctor said was used for all that could be made of it. Somewhat exercised over the echoes of
 this report he went to the cottage and got
 the general to write a bulletin which he
 brought back saying that he fully endorsed
 it. This is what the general wrote, signing
 his name to it:
 t.The atmosphere here enables me to live in com
 parative comfort while being treated, or while
 no idea that Should have been able to come here now if had remained in the city. It IS douptIul would be much better able to move back than I was to come at the time did. , Ihef6 IS no 6OuDG Cu0 SeueIa1 IT weaker than when he came and to-day has been fruitful in com parison between his condition a fortnight ago and now. The seeming free dom from pain continues to excite anxiety lest he may have passed the stage of suscep- tibi1ity. This view was strengthened to-day by adiscontinuance of the anasthetic cocaine for the purpose of experiment with the voice. No special pain was experi- enced even in the absence of that treatment. Another significant feature of the situation is that Dr. Douglass has restrained one member of the family from going on a short visit, ad- vising against trip for even part of day | to Saratoga.
 WASHINGTON, June 30.-General Dent, who is General Grants brother-in-law, said to-day: "I am afraid that General Grant l will not last many days. To-day l received ! informstien from the family that the cancer I has commenced to infame the jugular vein l and death is the question of few days 1n the opinion of his physicians"
