CHADRoN, Neb., Nov. 26.-The death
of Charles Barnett, farmer aged 40
years, living about four miles south of
here is the end of chapter of fatalities
which is out of the usual run. Ten
weeks ago the Barnett family mum bered
eight people. They were Charles and
his wife and five children and Miss
Martha Barnett his sister. One after
another of these have all died, and to-
day not soul remains of the family.
The youngest, child was the first to be
taken. Diphtheria, in malignant
form, attacked the babe, and it died
within two days, followed by the next
child with the same disease one day
later. The other children were attacked
but all recovered with the exception of
the eldest, who was slow in convalescing.
He took cold just when it was thought
he was getting well, and died. The next
day one of the remaining children fell
| from the top of the barn, and when
found its neck was broken. On return
| ing from the funeral the team ran away
and threw Mrs. Barnett and her sister,
in-law from the wagon, killing the lat
ter instantly and inflicting such injuries
on the former that she died three days
later. Two weeks ago the remaining
child was trying to light fire, when
her clothing caught fire and she was SO
badly burned tnat she died. A week
ago Barnett was working in his stable,
when he received kick from one of his
horses, from the effect OF which he died
the next day, his death completing the
round of fatalities and finishing putting
/. the family out of existence. He had no
known relatives. The farm reverts to
the state unless there can be found some
other members of the ia mily.

thousands of dollars to lumbermen.

quantities no ice will be cut on the
Penobscot river. All the water flowing
past the ice privileges is salt, and it will
take week of rain to effect it ever so
slightly. Millions of trout in northern
