We traced the rumor to its source, and

The veracity of Capt. Baughman has
never been questioned; and, upon no less
an authority tn n that Of the Captain, we

Doliie Ward, daughter OF NJ T.. Ward Of
Big Potlatch. was born in West Virginia
Oct. ID, 1861; she removed with her parents
to Idaho and remained with them until her
decease. The immediate cause of her
death was pelvic ahscess. An operation
was performed successfully, but too late to
save the life of the patient. The medical
opinion given previously was. there was no
danger, but death is inevitable The long
est life will come to an end. "The young
may die; the old must die" "What man
is he that livetn and shall not see death ?"
In this instance the deceased was prepared
for the great change. In early life she
made a profession of faith in Him who is
1.-THE Resurrection and the Life" Aud by
consistent walk and conversation she re-
Elected honor upon her Divine Lord. 1t is
comforting to her parents and relatives to
know that their loss is her eternal gain
She was . most excellent Christian lady,
highly respected by all who knew her.
The funera! services held at the house were
largely attended, d Il large company went
to the grave to pay their last tribute OF
respect to her memory Rev. T. NJ. Boyd,
of this city, oiiiciated at the burial services.

too large Sometimesthe moon is represented
with its horns pointing downward The
horns, Of course, must always point away
from the sun. When poets talk about moon
