obtain the position of Charley

-"Enlisted for the War, or the
Home Guard" will be given at the
Opera House tonight for the
benefit of the Sons of Vet
Grams, of New Straitsville.
This good oppo. tunity for the
members Of the G.. A. r. to show
their approval of such an organiza-

There were some runors at the
time of the death of VIM. Thomp-
son that he had been "doped" with
great quantities of whisley and
beer, but Coroner Gage held open
his Investigation as long as he could
and made diligent effort to ascer-
tain the facts, but was unable to
find any thing definite or
tangible. The whole thing seemed
to be vague rumor.
"A man by the name of james
Comisky was killed at the New

elevator. On Monday his brother
arrived from Pittsburgh Pa, to
take his remains there for burial.
Comisky was Il single man and alb
out 26 years old,-Shawnee Banner.
Coroner G. G. Gage was called
at l 80 O'clock on Monday morning
last to view the remains of William
Thompson, colored, who was found
dead at his residence in this place.
He had come home in q state ofin-
toxication, which was possibly one
of the causes which fastened his
death. The Coroner after examin-
ing the body came to the conclu-
sion that he died from causes per-
tanning to man of his habits and
ordered the body inferred. He
was buried in the Oak Grove
