David Kull, ir., and D. Kull, jr, &
Co., whose business embarrassments
were alluded to In the INTELLIoENcER
last week, on Saturday made an assign
ment for the benefit OF their creditors,
Major J. V. l.. Rodgers being the u.s.
signee. Several judgments against the
property are pending The assignment
is general, and owing to the cOmpIica-
tons in which the estate is involved,
the matters at issue can probably only
be settled by litigation.

summer evening which attracted by the
burning light fly in and are consumed,

Rainey's coal works, above Martins
Ferry, will start when the Wheeling &
Lake Erie or South Pennsylvania &
Ohio road is completed. w. J. Rainey,
the owner, shut down the works about
three years ago on account Of the high
rates on the Cleveland d Pittsburgh road,
on which the works is located, two
miles above Martins Ferry. He was
unable TO compete with the Cleveland,
Lorain 4 Wheeling road, which has Its
own coal and ears. When the new roads
are in operation he can get much lower
rates and compete with other mines.
This is what eXhorbitant rates on the
Cleveland Il Pittsburgh has done. Raj
uey's coal works, when in full operation,
employed about $50 men and boys and
was u good feeder for Martins Ferry
Only two or three OF the houses up there
are occupied since the works shut down.
1t is said that Mr.. Thomas Johns, who
is now at Meyer, Pa, will manage the
works when it resumes. He was
manager for many years, and would
rather reside in MGrtiR's Ferry than
Meyer. The works have been kept in
good order ever since the shut down.

Saturday forenoon Tommie, the ten
year.old son of W. W. Rogers, the we'll
known pension attorney and ex-justice
Of the peace, was coasting in the alley
between ChapIine and Market streets,
opposite st. Alphonsus church. He
dashed out into Market street Just as
one Of Reymann's bottled beer wagons
passed, and the boy was caught beneath
the wheels, which passed over his chest,
crushing it badly. The driver OF the
wagon and Il milkman who was passing
picked up the boy and carried him to
Dirt. o. Edwards office, and the Doctor
being out, to Menkemiller's drug store.
On the way all the boy said was, II am
very sick" Then he gave gasp and
died. Coroner Schultze examined the
body and gave certificate Of death in
accordance with the facts. There was
no blame to be attached to the driver Of
the beer wagon. The family have the
sympathy OF all.

Economical Summer CostumSs for Little
Boys and GIrls.

aprons and dresses.
"It is a great piece Of folly TO make
a child's wash-drcss in a fanciful man

looks we'll 10 her house and her six
children; "for the chief charm 10 such
dress Is its cleanliness. ana IL il re-

One Of the most economical and be-

in dresses is made out of good brown
Holland linen. I'll. = rctails for twenty
five cents yard and will stand more
wear than the best Of ginghams or
jeans.
The little costume j. made in three
pieces, a full skirt side plated to a
band, little jacket supplied with
waist buttons and a Jroad collar and a
small pair Of trou'crs. A little narrow
white or crimson embroidery edges the
collar, and the suit is TO be worn with
no undcrclOthing except little fan
mel shirt and under body. Four suits
made like this Of either gingham or
linen will be found sufficient for most
small boys. and will save a great deal
Of washing.
Gingham aprons are made In so
graceful n fashion nowadays that they
are not ut all Objectionable. For little
girls mp 10 twelve and boys under six
they are made with Il bow yoke and
