sudden D0&tD Oh an EStlm0Dl0 Lazy.
Miss Mile NJ. Miller died very suddenly at
the residence of her brother-in- law, Jas. Mop
Crawford, Esq, near Fl. Defiance, about $50 P
M, April 30th in the 55th year of her age. She
was apparently in good health up to within a few
minutes of her death, when she complained Of
an uncomfortable feeling about her throat,
which began to swell rapidly. A messenger
was Immediately dispatched for her physician,
DR.. Crawford, but she was dead some time be-
fore he arrived. The cause of her death is sup
posed to have been congestion of the blood
vessels of the throat. Deceased was the eldest
child of the late VIM. Miller, Esq, and Mrs
Juliet Miller (nee Crawford). and leaves a
brother, Crawford Miller, Esq, and three sisters,
Miss Priscilla Miller, Mrs. James w. Crawford
and Mrs James Mop. Crawford, of the Fl. De.
iance neighborhood, besides very large mum
county. She was an earnest, devoted Christian,
and her friends, though sorey grieved. have the
comforting assurance that her lamp was found
'trimmed and burning when the bridegroom
came and she was ready to enter into the
marriage supper of the Lamb.
The remains were inferred in the Augusta
Church Cemetery on Thursday, I'd inst. In the
absence of the pastor, Rev. Mr.. Laird, of Mt
Horeb, conducted the services, and Messrs. R.
C. Byers, S. H. McCue, John H. Crawford, G.
Marsh Crawford, John II. Parkins and Ed
NICK. McCue acted as pail bearers. The large
crowd present attested the high degree Of
esteem in which decease was held.

A suggestion looking to the establish
mcnt of a shoe factory in Staunton, is un-
der consideration by some of our citizens
Mr.. T. II, Shickel. of Philadelphia, a
practical workman. has brought the mat-
ter to public attention. Several of our citi'
zens have indicated willingness to aid in
the enterprise by subscriptions, as follows :
Messrs. &. g. Child. Isaac Witt. P. H
Trout, G. G. Gooch, NJ. N. Bradley, r.
w. Burke, G. N. Weller and M. Erskine
Miller. $500 each. Mr.. Shickels will sub
scribe So 900. The Land and Improvement
Company, of which w. A. Burke is presi-
dent, has the matter in hand and will press
it upon the attention of our people. 1t
ought to succeed.
If the plan of MIR. Shickle is carried into
effect, the plant will give employment to
q large number of workmen. StauntOn is
an admirable point for such an industry.
1t is central. with excellent traffic facili.
ties and in reach of an extensive and
wealthy territory. where there is no fac
tory of this kind. Properly managed, such
an establishment ought to pay from the
start.
Since the above was in type we have
seen the subscription paper in the hands
of Julius Scheffer, with sums entered by
other citizens than those mentioned above.
aggregating in all about $4,000 Mr..
Shickle. himself. has increased his sub
scription 81 600. 1t will require about
$4,000 to secure the plant and give it a
working capital. 1t will employ about 100
hands, 25 of whom will be ladies
We will refer again more particularly to
the enterprise.

taKen contract to build railroa from Eagle
ROCK up The valley of Craigs Creek and ON to

an interview with Hon. VIM. A. Anderson with
INC view of securing a contract from the

glasgow from the property now controlled by
that company on Craig S Creek which amounts
to 81. 900 acres.
Mr.. Sears who has had large experience in
connection with iron properties, and is thor
oughly familiar with the Iron lands of Michi-
gan, tennessee and Alabama, having lived in
the latter, expresses the opinion that the veins
OF IRON ore on Craig's Creek are beyond com
parlson the largest and most valuable in the
United States. He bell ewes that with proper
railroad connections that region will eclipse
the iron region of Birmingham Ala.

THE MARKETS.

There ia apparent stagnation in the local
grain market. The farmers are busy either
putting In their corn, or cleaning up their
premises preparing for corn planting. The de-
mand Is local. and prices ruling lower than
this time last year. In view of the short hold
ings throughout this and other countries, this
is unaccountabie. We have three months to
run before tie new crop comesin. and the con-
sumption in that time for home and foreign
peoples would aggregate largely. Unless for
eisn dealers have purchased futures, the prob.
abilities are they will haye to buy at advanced
figures. There is nothing In the known facts
of the condition to Justify present low prices
and we cannot but think there will be an ad-
vance. Wequote:
