DEATH IN THE FOURTH.


A sad affair is the death of young VIM.
Cummings here by the premature firing
of a cannon. In company with several
boys he was opening the 4th of July
and about l o'clock rain beginning
they concluded to fire last shot for the
night. AS it did not go off young Cum
mings went to relight it when the
cannon went off in some manner, the
charge striking him in the right side of
the head, blowing off the skull DR..
Barber was called and found the body
where it had fell, the brains lying out
side the cavity of the head and pool of
blood surrounding it. 1t was removed
till morning to the house of James
Morgan when the Doctor who has had
experience in number of similar cases
proceeded to make the remains present
able by replacing the fragments of bone
and flesh some of which had been blown
to the roof of the houses adjoining.
Young Cummings worked in the factory
here and boarded with his grandmother
his mother being dead. He was about
II years old. The funeral occurred
Wednesday.
DR.. Barber visited his brother Andrew
in Dalton, this week who is critically i'll.
He has had an attack of gangrene of the
right leg which completely destroyed
the flesh of one side leaving both bones
bare. He is to be removed to the
Hospital of Mercy, in Pittsfield, Mass.

One Of the Msst Pleasing Events Of the
Season.
The home of Prof. and Mrs. Krouse on
Sixth East street was the scene of most
pleasant musicale last evening, in connec-
ton with an informal reception to the
artist, Mr.. Harwood, and his BRIDE. nee
Miss Richards. Besides refreshments, in
Productions and handshakings with Mr..
and Mrs. Krouse, Artists Adams and
Browning ia Mr.. and Mrs. Dallin as
heads Of ceremonies, there was brief mu-
steal programme, as dainty and enjoyable
as anything that could be imagined. Mr..
Krouse and Miss Conklin played four
hand piano piece in admirable style. Miss
Title Phillips followed with mezzo or
alto song which suited her voice
as well as anything we ever heard her
render. Mr.. Piper then gave tenor solo
from "a Trip to Africa and was heartily
applauded. Miss Helen Sherman created
a sensation by her rendering of darling
Kiss My Eyelids Down. song much
more beautiful and meritous than its title
would indicate. The young lady has a
mezzo voice of rare sweetness, and she
sings with rare seif-possession. She gained
the first encore. Mr.. Weihe of course met
with stormy recall when he gave violin
solo, and he dashed off Musin's charming
mazourka as second piece. Miss Hawley's
fine voice was heard in rapid movement,
a Swedish love song, but an especial gem
was her rendering with Mr. Piper of the
duett called sNightu The two voices
blended to excellent advantage. The affair
lasted till IL and was unanimously voted q
charming success.

TALKS MONKEY TALK
Robert L. Garner Has Started
for Europe.
He VIII Look for Big Monkeys and Large
GOrillas in Order to Pursue His Researches
in the Monkey Language.

Especial to THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch. ]
NEW York, July 6.-Robert L. Garner,
the man who speaks the language OF the
monkeys, starts for Europe tomorrow. and
within two months will probably be on the
western coast of Africa ready TO undertake
his journey into the abode of the large gor-
lila and chimpanzee. Mr.. Garner has never
been in Africa, all of his former work IN
studying the monkey language having been
done with such monkeys as are either i'm
prisoned in public menageries or else are
owned by private collectors. He will go
direct from Dondon to Cape Lopez, trad
ing station in the French Congo district,
about four hundred miles north Of the
mouth Of the Congo river.
Two hundred miles back in the country
from Cape Lopez, in the upper valley OF
the OgOla river, there is said TO dwell q
speces of ape that builds huts out of dead
wood and the bark of trees. When Mr.
Garner reaches the headwaters of the
Osheba river he will be just under the
equator and within two hundred miles or
SO of Stanley falls. Here he expects to
find plenty OF big monkeys and will also
be among tribe of blacks but little ad-
vanced from the wild animals of the forest.
