ACCIDENT TO MRS sCUDDER.

What might have been very serious accident occurred on Monday afternoon in front of the postotllce. Mrs Samuel $. Scudder, with her daughters, Misses Susie and Fannie, drove up in two- seated wagon. Mrs Scudder occupied the rear seat and her daughters the front. Miss Susie alighted from the wagon to get the mail, and struck the horse gent ly with a whip as she started away. The horse gave a sudden jump, throwing Mrs Scudder and the back seat to the ground. Mrs Scudder apparently struck on her head. Her daughters and friends near by hurried to her assistance. After a few minutes, she was able to walk to the residence of Lawyer Beecher. pr Smith was summoned, but found no bones bro- ken. Mrs Scudder was not unconscious at the time of the accident, but was ap- parently dazed for a few minutes. After a short time she returned to her home ir Dodgingtown. It is a matter for sincere congratulation that the results were not more serious, as those who witnessed her fall feared she was badly injured.

A GOOD BALL GAME.

Mark ham went in to pitch for the Woood- bury's, but was not effective. the home team making three runs in the third in ming, which virtually won the game for them. In the fourth inning the Wood- bury's put Minor in to pitch and the home team could do nothing with him. In the ninth inning it looked as if the Woodbury's would tie the score. Leach was the first at bat. He knocked a ground ball to the pitcher and was quick ly thrown out at first, then Matthews went to the bat and surprised everyone by making base hit, and got second on sacrifice by Mack, and third on base hit by Roberts. Roberts stole second, and with these two men on bases, Minor knocked put pretty two base hit, le1- ting in two runs. Holmes knocked a foul fly, the first baseman, who captured it, finishing the game.

DEATH OF A FORMER RESIDENT.

The West Lebanon( Ind0 Gazette of August r, contains intelligence of the death of Mrs Catharine M. Jones, an old resident of Sandy Hook. The following from the Gazette is given in full:
 Catharine M. Jones, nee Judson, was born in the state of Connecticut, April 3. 1915, and departed from this life at West Lebanon, Ind, Sunday morning, August 13, 1895, after a severe and painful illness of two weeks duration, aged IS years five months and 10 days. Her last hours were peaceful and free from pain and she passed quietly to her eternal home. More than 50 years ago she was united in marriage to David w. Jones, of her native state who at his country's call left home and family and enlisted in the 10th Regiment of Connecticut Volunteers and went to the defense of his country. and on May 3, 1862, he was morally wounded and left on the battlefield of Charlottesville and his mortal remains rest ill an unknown grave. To this union was given three children all of whom. except a son Charles, of this place have proceeded the mother to the unknown world of the future. Nearly three yerrs ago Mrs Jones came to this place and has since made her home with her son,
 
 cared for and in her last illness all that tender and loving hands could do was done to smooth the pathway and make the descent easy and peaceful. Mrs Jones was never connected with any church of Christ, but was good woman and so lived as to leave to her friends a good hope that all is we'll and. that she rests in peace. Her last words were, as she stretched out her hands, 70 Mother ! Mother take me. Appropriate religious services were held In her memory at the family residence on last Monday after noon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev c. B. Mock, after which the mortal remains were followed to their last resting place by large concourse of friends and in- tered in our city for the dead. She leaves no near relatives except her son Charles to mourn her loss, but large number of friends had learned to love
