A FATAL ENDING.
The Zig Sandy Difficulty Ends Fatally to
DIR. LOwery.

AS we were going to press Thurs
day evening of last week, we receiv-
ed the sad intelligence of the death
of DIR. j. P. Lowry, at Big Sandy.
We had been led to believe that his
condition was very favorable to re-
covery from his wounds, in fact a
gentleman who came from Big
Sandy Wednesday afternoon stated
to a CHRONICLE reporter that the
attending physician was Of the opin-
ion that he had passed the danger
period, and the report of his death
came like a clap of thunder from
a clear sky, and was-a great shock
to the family.
It.seems that he arose Thursday
morning and ate hearty breakfast.
Shortly after eating breakfast, and
while lying down, he complained Of
the heat and signified to some mem
Der of the family to assist him to
rise. While his request was be-
ing complied with he suddenly
threw his hand to his side and sank
over on the bed, and before medical
assistance could be summoned was
dead. He leaves a wife and three
children, who have the deep SYM
pathy of a host of friends.
After the death of DR.. Lowry
Mr.. Frank Dowdy, at whose hands
he received his death wounds, in g
difficulty over a dog-6ght June 8
was arrestedand placed under bono
of $4,000 for his appearance at {
preliminary trial Thursday, July Z
1t is needless to repeat the partic.
ulars of the difficulty between the
two men, as we know of no new.de
velopments. The fatal ending o.
the affair is deeply regretted by thu
friends of both parties.

COLUMBUS AND COLUMBIA.

The Dominion publishing company, of
Seattle, Wash, has just brought out truly
great work under the above title. 1t is not
the creation of one mind, but the combined
genious Of four master authors, Hon. James
G.. Blaine, Prof. John Clark Ridpath, J. w.
Buel and Hon. Benz. Butterworth, each per-
forming an important part in its produc-
tion. 1t is in fact fonr important and valu-
able books bound up in one huge volume
containing nearly 900 large quarto pages
and 500 illustrations and historical paintings
many of them being full page colored plates.
and of the whole of which it is impossible to
speak in too much praise. Columbus aud
Columbia" may be truly said to constitute a
grand panorama of our country's surprising
history. Mr.. Blaine has certainly been very
happy In his portion of the work, which con-
sists of a review of our country, nor has Prof.
Ridpath been less successful in his elaborate
and attractively written history of the
United States, from its discovery by Colum.
bus to the present time. The name of j.
w. Buel is too we'll known to every book
reader in this country to need any further
from US, and he has GER
tainly added immensely to his reputation
by his splendid biography of Christopher
Colunibus, which forms an important feature
of this work. Full justice has been .ione by
Hon. Benz. Butterworth to the subject that
he has taken in hand, namely, an Official
history of the Columbian exposition, than
whom certainly no one is better able to
handle this subjct than Mr.. Butterworth,
who has been acting as secretary and solicitor
general for the worlds fair commission. As
the century closes every intelligent family
will want record of it's wonderful accom-.
plishments, and a history of the splendid
events that have led up to them, and Colum-
bus and Columbia is a work that certainly
fills the beyond what would be conceived
possible within the scope oe one volume. 1t
is certainly book that every family in
America ought to and must have. We
must congratulate the Dominion publishing
company in having brought before the public
a work that will be creditor their zeal and
enterprise for long time to come. We
understand that columbus and Columbia
is sold only by subscription and at popular
prices. The publishers advertisement ap-
pears in another column.

Surstroke Stops til theWedding of IS and e5,

sunstroks Stops theWedding of IS and e5.
A marriage was interrupted Thursday
night by the groom becoming suddenly
overcome with the heat and he had to
be taken to his hotel, where he has been
confined to his bed ever since.
The groom in question is Mr.. W. s.
Fowler who boards at the Enterprise
hotel. Until short while ago he con-
Quoted livery stable on East Market
street, but retired about q year ago with
a comfortable fortune. Mr.. Fowler is
a widower, seventy-five years old, and
has several grown children. A short
while ago he met Miss Lille Townsend,
young woman twenty-five years Of
age, who is employed by ]. Bacon & Sons
at the glove counter.
The courtship did not last long till the
engagement was announced. Mr.. Fowl
ers children, it seems, objected strongly
to the marriage and did everything in
theirpower to break off the match. They
were unsuccessful, however. and June
Is, the day set for the marriage, arrived.
The wedding was to take place where
Miss Townsend has boarded for several
years. Everything was in readiness at
the time appointed-the guests, the min
lister and the happy couple.
Just before the time for the ceremony
Mr.. Fowler became very faint and
would have fallen but for the support Of
one of the guests. He soon lost con-
sciousness and was taken to the Enter
prise hotel in carriage, where he was
put to bed and the doctor summoned.
His condition was found not to be seri-
Gus, but he was suffering from slight
case Of unstroke.-Louisville Courier

Gave Fair Warming.

A keen sense of humor had a certain
convict at Dartmoor, who carted down
from his cell one night his books, etc.,
and handed them to the principal warder
with statement that as he was going
home on the morrow he required them
no longer.
"Eh, whatr the officer exclaimed.
''Why, you've got seven or eight years
to do, my man."
''No, l ain't," the prisoner replied;
"I'm off home tomorrow"
This statement caused much merri-
ment amongst the officials and warders
standing by. They laughed oa the other
side of the mouth, however, the next
day, for B early in the day made a
daring and successful escape from the
gang in which he was working on the
bogs, and decanped across the moor

Umbrella Etiquette in Turkey.

In China ladies are attended by SER
wants who hold umbrellas over their
heads. The Chinese and japanese in
troduce both the umbrella and parasoi
into their decorative work and athletic
sports. In western Turkey it is neces-
sary to close an umbrella on meeting
people of high rank, and a European
traveller who was passing one Of tho
palaces of the sultan was nearly run
through by the guard before he compre-
hended that he must put down the open
umbrella he carried. Every one passing
the actual residence of the sultan lowers
his umbrella as salutation to 'ths
brother of the sun and the moon."-De-
troit Free Press.
