At Columbia Furnace, on December
18th, Frank Hines acedently shot his
wife, from the effects Of which she after
wards died. At first it was supposed that
the shooting was intentional and Hines
was placed in Jail to await the result of
her wound. On Tuesday of last week
Mrs. Hines died. An inquest was held on
w ednesday. From the testimony before
the coroner it appears that Hines was
examining a gun IN the room where his
wife was working, preparatory to going
to the mill close By to kill cats. By some
unknown means the gun was accidently
disc ha rged, the load entering bis wifes
abdomen. Hines ran ont and called 10 bis
neighbors that be had killed his wife.
When the neighbors arrived he was cling
ing TO her and seemed paralyzed with
grief The testimony before the Jury to-
gether with the womans statement was
TO the effect that the shooting was purely
accIdeat .stand in accord they rendered a
verdict that the deceased came to ber
death by a gun shot wound from a gun in
the hands of her husband, and that the
shooting was accidental. Hines was i'm
medlately liberated from Jail. The couple
had only been married about year. The
grief stricken husband has the sympathy
OF tue community in his bereavement.

Proof Better Than Assertion.

With such proof as the following letter
from w. II. Dean, of No. 27s Seventh
street, New York, 1t is not necessary to
make the bare assertion that Allcock
Porous Plasters cure lumbago. Mr.. Dean
says; -,
Some ten days ago was taken with
very violent pain in the small OF my
hack. IL was so severe that | could
hardly breathe every movement caused
great agony. finally found out it was
iumbago. Being entirely helpless, a
friend sent TO a druggist aud got two
Allcock's Porous Plasters these were
well warmed and applied to my back, one
above the other. In half an hour, TO my
great delight and surprise, l iound the
main began TO abate. In two hours was
able to walk out and attend to my bust
meas the pain being almost gone, Next
day was all right but continued wear
ing the plasters for week.

The furniture for the new de pot IN this
place arrived last week. 1t was imme-
diately put in place, aud he building
opened to the public on Friday morning.
II is unnecessary to describe the outside
Of the building, yet description Of the
interior might be of interest. The wait
ing room is divided into two compart-
ments-oDe for ladies and the other for
gentlemen-cut of by partition. The
ticket and telegraph Office isin the middle,
on the east side and is round. The wall
and ceilings are painted blue. The wood
work which is very handsome is simply
vanished, retaining its natural color.
Now Woodstock has depot to be proud
of-one that will cause persons travelling
through the Valley to stop and take a
look at the town. IL they find place
that compares with the station we are
sure they will locate with rs. Citizens,
we think there Is still great deal oil
room for improvement here. A splendid
time to commence is nOw-the beginning

George Bailey, alias George McCauley,
was lodged in Jail in this place on Wednes-
day night of last week to await the
action of the grand Jury. He is charged
with attempting to kill his wife, Ellen
Bailey, the previous week, near Quicks-
burg, in this county. McCauley it appears
is a regular desparado. His attack on the
woman was Of the most brutal kind. He
struck her with broad axe, knocking her
down, when he jumped upon her and broke
several of her ribs. He then left her for
dea, and doubtless his deed would have
been successful but for the timely arrival
of friends. 1t is now thought she will re-
cover. The would-be murderer made his
escape and defed arrest, but finally an
officer captured him. he was brought to
Mt. jackson and tried before Justice Nef,
who sent him on as above stated.
