ADA BELLE PHILLIPS.
The Death of a Loved Member oi
Alhambra Society.


Alhambra Society.
Less than four months ago Alhambra
witnessed quiet but pleasant wedding,
and the auguries seemed most auspi-
cious as Ada Belle Thompson was
greeted as the bride of Charles A. Phil
lips.
During the brief period OF welded life
MIR. and Mrs. Phillips made for them
selves cheerful home, where they well
coined and made happy their acquaint-
ances, where they laid the foundation
for a life of elevation and usefulness in
a community whose respect and esteem
they possessed.
But the young bride was suddenly
stricken ill. The physicians diagnosed
the case as intrussusception OF the in
testines. and from the first there was
little hope. On Wednesday last, after
an illness OF less than week, she fell
asleep.
The funeral services were held at the
late residence on Friday morning. Beau
tiful floral offerings, tributes OF kindest
sympathy for the bereaved, and the
long procession that followed the be-
loved one to her resting place, told ol
the sweet bonds OF affection and sym
pathp by which she had bound herself
to so many hearts.
Husband, mother and brother mourn
for one who was loving, charitable and
brave, and who trusted in Him who
doeth all things well.

These two adjeetives by no means imply the

are many men and women of slight build and
inferior stature to whom the terms "hale and

ABBOTT ALIAS ALMY.
Christie warden's Murderer Identified a
an Escaped Convict.

Christie warden's Murderer Identified as
an Escaped Convict.
HANOVER, N. H., August 22.-It has
been established beyond doubt that
Frank G. Almy is George III. Abbott,
who escaped from the Windsor, VT,
state prison about six years ago.
Warden Oakes and two superintendents
from Windsor this morning positively
identified him. Abbott is known as an
expert burglar and desperate criminal.
At the time of his escape, he was serv-
ing out sentence of fifteen years, hav-
ing been convicted in nine different in
dictments for breaking and entering a
house, to which he pleaded guilty in
January, 1881. When Abbott was
arrested in 1881, he was the ringeader
OF gang of burglars who operated in
towns up and down the Connecticut
river

IN A DILEMMA.

The Union Pacific Ordered to Rebuild
Its Kansas Central Line.
TOPEKA, Kan, August 22.-The state
board OF railroad commissioners has ad-
dressed a letter to the manager of the
Union Pacific railroad, informing him
that the entire line of the Kansas Cen
trail railroad must be rebuilt without
delay, with new steel track, and if the
order is not complied with, the matter
will be turned over to the attorney gen.
eral, and steps will be taken to
revoke the roads charter. Several
fatal accidents on account of the defect
i've track, resulted in this order being
issued. The officials say they cannot
afford to lay a new track, as the road is
not paying expenses.

Not Approved by Miles.

CHICAGO, August 22.-General Miles,
in an interview about the scheme to put
state troops under the orders of the
secretary of war, said: 81 do not be-
lieve in consolidating the state troops
and forming them into, practically, a
standing army OF 100,0 900 men, and plac-
ing them under the control of whoever
may be secretary of war. Such meas
