The sPeerless,, Atlas.

The "Peerless Atlas of the World" for
the sale of which an agent is now working in
this city and vicinity, comes great deal
nearer its title, when it's cost is considered,
than most books of the kind. 1t is certain
ly well worth the small sum asked for it.
1t contains over two hundred large maps
and illustrations, and great deal of
accurate information which school children,
college students and all interested in the
affairs of the world will find valuable and
easy of access. 1t will have a large sale and

tigating the causes that led to the death
of the printer, Frederick L. Rising, who

conveyed to the police station and later to
the hospital, where he died on Thursday
evening.
The coroner found that the wound
which caused the mans death was on the
back of his head. Over the right eye was
slight cut. The injuries were probably
made when the man fell on the sidewalk

A New Car Coupler.

One of the best couplers that has been
patented is the one that w. G. Smith and
J. E. Korer of this city have made. Both
gentlemen are practical machinists, Mr..
Smith being employed for number of
years at the Winchester arms factory. 1t
was on exhibition at the recent railroad
conductors fair, both gentlemen being
there to show it to all who were interested
in couplers. 1t is very easy to operate,
doing away with going between the cars to
couple or uncouple, this being one of the
most important features of the invention.
The patent was issued from Washington
the last week in September.

THE WIND BLEW.

The Rains Descended and So Did
Chimneys and SiSns-Part of a Little
Steeple, Etc.
The high wind which accompanied the
heavy downpour of rain last evening did
considerable damage. Limbs of elm trees
were snapped off and strewn in the streets.
One big limb lay on George street, near
Day. The big sign over Wooster Ensign
& Co.'S store on Orange street, foot of Cen
ter, fell with crash to the street, carry
ing with it some of the electric light and
other wires. The chimney at the rear of
the German Baptist church on George
street, corner of Broad, fell with crush
upon the sloping slate roof of the church,
doing considerable damage. The old line
boat arrived, but late, having encountered
heavy seas. The upper portion of the stee-
pie of the Russian Hebrews church on
Temple street came crashing down at about
Z o'clock. A lady passing had a narrow
escape from being killed by the falling
timber. On Temple street, between
Church and Commerce street, about fifty
feet of six foot high fence was blown
down. A large piece of tin roof on St.
PauPs church was blown down. The
damage will be repaired to-day. q. a.
