A SAD, SUDDEN DEATH. - Henrietta
Drew, aged sixteen, daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. II. T. Drew, Of this city, died
last Monday at 10 o'clock q. m, Of con-
gestion OF the bowels. Seldom is IL
that the visitation OF the grim des-
troyer leaves more sorrowing hearts in
a little community than in this ms
tance. Only twenty-four short hours
before was the tirst symptom of any
character felt and it was not until Sun
day night that medical aid was sum-
moned. Death, under any circum-
stances, sends a tremor through us ali,
but when Its victim is so ught from
amongst the young-irom those who
have passed from childhood and are on
the threshold Of maturity-its stings
are doubly painful. Nearly all Of Hen
rietta's short life had been spent with
in the borders Of Vinita and, possessed
of bright, adable nature, few there
were OF our citizens whose friendship
she did not enjoy. The funeral took
place from the Congregational church,
to which Sunday school she belonged,
on Tuesday afternoon and Was attend
ed by more persons than the building
would accommodate. Over all was
depicted.an expression OF sadness, and
of pity for the sorrowing relatives, far
m ore potent than any words could be,
and which told and told plAinly OF the
esteem which the dead enjoyed. The
burial was at the cemetery north OF
the city.

GoSE WITH THE OsAoE FUsDs. Here
is an item taken from the Arkansas
City Republican Traveller relating to
Cherokee citizen whom We all know.
It contains the first intimation we
have had ofthematter and is given just
as we getit "Nick Thompson, the de-
faulting treasurer OF the Osages has
not been found yet IL seems impos-
siblo TO ascertain his whereabouts.
Thompson is only half breed Usage
and has been living with that tribe
for about seven years. He formerly
lived in the Cherokee nation, but up
on his proving his right to live among
the Osages went 10 live with them.
About two years ago he was chosen
the treasurer Of the nation with sala.
ry Of about 81 200 per year. 1t is told
now that Thompson made the remark
when he took up his residence that he
would do up the Osages If ever hs bao
a chance. BY associatiug. with the
malcontents OF the tribe he secured
his Office and carried out his inten-
tions."
