-Four Persons KILLED While Attend =

CHICAGO, Jan. pa husband and
wife were slain outright this afternoon.
while attending the funeral of their child
ana the driver of the conveyance and n
ncighbor riding with them were fatally
injured and died In fow minutes. aIr.
and Mrs. Frederick Payne were the un-
fortunate parents; Simon Anderson was
the name OF tho hgckman, and Mrs.
I,eprosal that OF the neighbor.
Just as the carriage had
reached the gate OF Roschill
cemetery where the road crosses
the railway track, the ingoing Chicago
express ON tho North western dashed
upon II, utterly wrecking II and throw
ing the unfortunate victims thirty feet
away. The O.ycar-old daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Payne miraculously escaped
with q slight scalp wound. The driver
and engineer are each cCnsured for lack
of caution, but the absence of the flag
man at tho crossing, mono being kept
there by the railroad company, seems 10
have been the principal cause Of the hor-
ror, as the views of both the engineer
and carriagc-uriver were shut OIL almost,
ii not wholly, by the Rosehill railroad
station and group OF saloons.

We need not 60 the length OF the fam

In like manner the verb ito do" ought

the past tense OF ''to read" ought not to

l did read pronounced redd) should be

The cuts printed in some of the news-

Uncle Orrin Stone was the oracle Of
Prairietown. His opinion was taken as
final on all topics Of village government,
school management, or church choirs.
He criticised everything for years, in the
certainty that his word would always be
taken as law.
But the time came when the modern
spirit Of change began to have its in
fiuence on PrairietOwn. Some of the
boys and girls who had been away to
school in Indianapolis or Chicago came
home with plans and notions which IN
Gle Orrin's disapproval was not permit
ted to affect. He gave out his words Of
praise or blame just the same, although
he found more to censure than to COM
mend In the ways Of the young people
who had been brought into contact with
broader civilization.
At last there was musical festival in
Prairietown. The largest hall in the
place was decorated with wreaths and
flags, and singers from the city came to
take the leading parts in the programme
for the great day. A soprano from city
church, one who had been praised by
thousands, came to sing the two solos in
Rossini's "Carita."
Uncle Orrin went, and sat in a front
seat, ~ usual. He listened intently, as
he did on all occasions, but the express
sion OF his face was not one OF approval,
while Miss Appleton's lovely voice filled
the hall with the notes of her exquisite
soloa.
After the concert, his nephew, John
Stone, who had sung In the chorus, over
took the old gentleman ON his way home.
'Well, uncle, what did you think of
our concertY" asked John.
"A terrible breaking down, want it?''
returned Uncle Orrin.
''What do you meanY'
''Why, twas just terrible the way you
all broke down them two times, and that
