Justice Long, of Michigan, is one
OF the paradoxes of the republican
party. His newspaper advisers re-
fer to him as a man of extraordinary
ability; the pension lists record him
as man of total disability. The
difference, however, is merely a mat
ter Of distinction. The able Long
is the Judge, salary $1,000 a year
the disabled Long is the soldier,
pension $72 a month.

Sudden Death.

The following account Of quite
an unusual and sad occurrence is
taken from the Pendleton County
News Of last week.
On Saturday last 18th about dark
Miles Bible, son Of James Bible of
the Buffalo Hills died very sudden,
aged about II or Is years. 1t seems
that young Bible had some disease
like that Of itch, and had procured
a bottle Of ointment Of Drs. Moo
mau & Johnson, and after applying,
died Inside Of five minutes.
On Sunday, Esquire Pennybaker,
Drs. Moomau & johnson and |. c.
johnson, went to MIR. James Bibles
home to hold an examination. The
family objected to the doctors max
ing an autopsy, aud Esquire Fen
nybaker deemed it unnecessary to
hold an inquest over the body as
they believed he died from heart
trouble. The doctors claim that
the ointment was harmless and
could not have caused death, as
other members of the family used
the same medicine. Deadly poison,
in our opinion, would not have kill
ed a man SO soon, and Of course we
have the right to believe that he
died from heart trouble.
The ointment has been sent off
to be analysed, and in justice to
our friend DR.. S. B. Johnson, who
so carefully prepared the ointment
we will gladly publish the result.
The family has the sympathy Of
the News in the loss If their son.

OBITUARY.

1t is with much regret that we
chronicle the death of Mrs. John
NJ. Colaw which occurred at her
home in Monterey on Tuesday
evening last about 5 o'clock. She
had been sick for two weeks or
more, but bore her great suffering
with marked submission and
christian fortitude. During her
comparatively short residence in
town she had won the friendship
and respect Of ali, and her untime-
ly and unexpected death is greatly
lamented. She being only about
% years Of age, and up to the time
Of her last illness, retaining much
of the grace, beauty and vigor of
her girlhood, she gave promise Of a
a long and useful lie.
She leaves two little children -
too small to realize their loss, bat
old enough. we trust, to retain the
impress of a noble, christian moth
er's character. The greatest good
that we can wish for tEe;e little
ones is that Mammals hopes and
prayers may be fully realized.
The young, heart broken husband
has the sincere sympathy of ali in
this the saddest and darkest hour Of
his life, but, realizing how unsatis-
flying is human sympathy, we
hope that he may seek that conso-
laticn which God can give, and
which may be found in the blessed
assurance Of reunion beyond the
portals Of death.
Mrs. Colaw was formerly Miss
Josephine Judy, daughter Of Men
assis Ju ly, Of Grant Go. W. Va.
She was consistent member Of
The Methodist church for many
years, from which church she was
buried on Wednesday evening,
Rev. F. E. Hammond conducting
the exercises.
The sympathy and respect Of the
community was indicated by the
large concourse Of people that fol-
lowed the remains to their last rest

100000 Children in Peril.

Small pox has not for many years
been 50 prevalent in Pennsylvania
as it is at the present time. In
Reading the disease has had firm
foothold for over year. and the
State Board Of Health has officially
declared the disease epidemic there.
In other portions Of Befks county
there was also cases.
There are many others in all
parts Of the State. This general
outbreak Of the disease is due, it is
said, to the fact that vaccination
has been neglected. A plan is
talked Of and State superintendent
Schaeffer may be interested in the
matter to have all the school chill
dren in Pennsylvania vaccinated.
1t is estimated that 100000 school
children are in danger Of smallpox,
not having been vaccinated.
