Hrs. E.P. Caruthers Dead.

Died. at her home, in Carthage, Mo-,
Sunday night. November 18th, 1891, of
chronic diarrhrea, after an illness of
five weeks. Mary Fleming. wife of Ed
gar Z. aruthers, aged 35 years.
We know her hosts of warm friends
in this city and county will be shocked
at this sudden announcement. Mrs.
Carutliers was well known and well be-
loved in this city. She was born at
Fredericktown, Mo-, May 18th, 1856:
was married February 9th. 1874; was
the mother of five children, four OF
whom are living. Write. aged IA; Al
bert, aged II; Robert, aged 10, aud Jes-
sic, aged years.
Mrs Caruthers was no ordinary VIC
man. OF fine physique, beautiful feat
ures, attractive appearance, with =
mind we'll stored with information.
with heart full of kindly feeling for
everybody, she attracted friends, and
TO know her well was to love her well.
Her death was q peaceful sinking t.
sleep, to awake beyond the Jordan, in
the green fields of Eden. She had lived
a quiet. gentle, peaceful life, and sank
to sleep without fear. We sympa-
thIze with the stricken husband, who
knows his lrreparable loss; and our heart
is full of sorrow for the four precious
children, who are too young to fully
appreciate the calamity that has befall-
en- them. Sympathy at this hour can
not cheer the wounded heart, but it is
the best we can do. God alone is able
to give consolation.
The INDEX has unusually tender re-
gard for Mr.. Caruthers and his inter-
esting family. We came here six years
ago, a stranger in strange land, and
he was like brother to us. We often
visited his home, sometimes at mop
perfume hours, and cordial welcome
was always extended. He was the edi
tor Of this paper four years before we
came here. We bought half interest
in the Office with him, and for four
years we worked side by side, with new
er harsh word nor a misunderstand-
ing of any Kind. Dear old friend, we
grieve with you, but the sudden news
has shocked US, and words refuse to
express our feelings.

Luther White Is Dead.

Died, suddenly, at noon, on Sunday,
November 18th, Luther White, aged
about rs years.
Luther White is deadl This an
nouncement will send a shock to all
who know him who have not heard the
sad news. He died last Sunday at II
O'Clock, at the school house, two miles
south Of Isabel. He lived about mile
north of the school house, and at IL
o'clock walked from his home to the
school house to attend Sunday school.
After Sunday school was over, a short
prayer meeting was held, and MIR.
White, as was his custom, lead in fer
vent prayer; then hymn was started,
he also leading in the singing. After
singing one verse the audience waited
for him to start the second, and as he
did not do so, they looked toward him
and saw that his head had fallen for
ward. His son, Lester, and one or two
others FASTENED to him just in time to
catch his lifeless body rs it sank to the
floor. The body was taken to his house,
being followed by the entire audience,
who were awe-stricken and filled with
grief over the death of one whom they
all loved.
A few weeks ago his daughter, who
lives in Missouri, came out and paid
him visit. She persuaded her father
to sell OF his stock, rent out the farm,
and come to Missouri and spend the
winter with her. He had agreed to do
so; had sold the stock, had rented out
the farm, and was to have started to-
day on his visit. But no man knows
what day may bring forth. To-day
his body lies in the cold grave, while
his family and hosts of friends are
mourning his absence.
Grand old Luther White. The world
can i'll afford to spare such men. He
was landmark in that section. His
word settled all disputes. Nearly every
body knew him; all knew him by repu-
tatlon, and all loved him. He was a
Christian soldier and died with the har
ness on. He had just arisen from his
knees, where he had poured out his soul
in prayer or MS neighbors, whom he
loved, and, as he supposed, whom he
was about to leave for few months;
he was in the very act of singing prais-
es to his God when his spirit was
caught up and borne away by the an
gels to the presence of that God whom
he loved so we'll and whom he had serv-
ed so long and so faithfully.
What more could we say were we to
write dozen columns about him, BE
lived Christian life, and by so living
earned the right to die Christian e
death. No earthly honor can for mo-
ment compare with this. We grieve
for him as for any other friend, but we
rejoice in the certain knowledge that he
is now happier than he could be here,
and that the glories in store for him are
beyond the imaginatlons of the finite
mind.
Farewell, old friend. The world is
better because of your having lived
here. Would that the world could have
witnessed your noble death. Like the
shock that is fully ripe, you have been
gathered IN, and henceforth there is a
crown for thee

MORE STOCK.

Miller & Lux received forty more cars
of cattle, some over 1000 head, and one
car OF horses last evening. They were
shipped from Los Banos, California, and
are to be put on their Black Rock ranch
10 this county. Mr.. Miller is re. stocking
his range and is simply following his usual
good business judgement. The grade of
cattle he has shipped here are much
higher bred than our usual range cattle.

of cattle but will NAL much better beef,

obstacles.
We hope all the stockmen who can
make the arrangements will do as Mr..
Miller is doing, because we are sure large
profits will be their reward. Our stock
ranges were never in better condition
than at the present time and cattle will
soon be double their former price.

SILVER CREEK MINING DISTRICT,
Which is located in Washington. This
camp is situated on the west side Of the
Cascade Range, about fifty miles east OF
Snohomsh City, which latter has an APP
proximate population Of 5000, and is To-
Gated on the Seattle, Lakeshore and
Eastern Railway. Silver Creek is in the
center of mineral belt sixty miles long
and Eve miles wide; it is about two miles
below the summit OF the range, ct an
elevation Of $500 feet. The mineral belt
consists Of granite, feldsite and porphyry,
and lie traversed by numerous veins,
varying in width from two to ten feet,
carrying ealena, copper, pyTites and some
csrbonates. A number of veins are being
developed and show quantities Of good
ore, the average assays of which are so
ounces silver, $40 10 gold and 30 per cent
lead. No ore is being shipped as yet,
because of the lack OF transportation.
The camp is abundsnt.y wstered by
mountain streams, and so heavily tim
bered with fir and cedar that prospecting
is quite difficult. Two transcontineutsl
lines OF railroad are already surveyed
through the district. namely the Great
Northwestern and Montana line. About
2200 miners are now at work in Silver
Creek, and the chances are that 10 1892
the camp will make large outputs. There
are two other districts in this same belt
Cascade on the north and Suoqualmie on
the south; they are both being developed
with similar results.
For the last eigh. or nine months there
have been large developments Of quick
silver deposits 10 Siskiyou county, Cali
fornis. One OF the owners, George Sem,
has gone there TO erect reduction plant
with capacity of twenty tons daily.
Ooe OF these fine days we will furnish

THE STORY OF HENNESSYS MURDER.
Case Of the state Supported by the
Confession OF PoIltz.
The Grand Jury at New Orleans VIII
Report This Week.
Meanwhile Little Heed Is Paid to
WarIike Rumors from Italy.

NEW ORLEANS, April 12.-The grand jury
Is expected to report during the coming
week. 1t is said the confession of Politz
will be used in the report. Although Poltz
protested his own innocence, he acknowl-
edged that he joined the Malta under the i'm
preston that 1t was a benevolent society.
He was present at the meeting when Henne-
sy's death was decided upon and was ordered
to carry guns in sack to Monasterio's shan
ty, but refused. He did not know of the
killing until the Sunday following, but after
wards learned the details from Monasterio.
They were substantially the same as claimed
by the state upon the trial duplicating Sea-
effedi. Marchesi. Bagnetto and Monasterio
as Hennessy's slayers. The state did not
use the confession because 1t had such direct
proof Of POlitz's presence at the killing,
which his story denied. Politz Is said to
have brother who closely resembled him,
and who has not been heard Of since the
killing. He Is presumably in Italy. Had he
been found, Identification might have been
transferred to him, and the Politz confession
would have formed an important link In the
chain of evidence.
