AN ADVENTURESS.
She Invites the Co-operation of
 a Bank.
She Wishes to Deposit an Empty Box Supposed to Contain a Large
 Sum of Money.

There is woman in this town who is lowering dangerously near the line be. tween merely reprehensible and crim- inal misconduct, and whose failure as a blackmailer is no fault Of her own.
 A few days ago she called at 8 bank ing institution and told the cashier that she had sealed box containing $500 which she wished to deposit for stated time. She wished to pay $20 to the in- stitution for the trouble. The cashier informed her that the box would be re- eeived under the representation that it contained $500, only after he had counted the money; or he would re- ceive it as an empty box, or for what ever it was worth, and would charge only the regular deposit fee. He natur- ally suspected that her purpose was to leave the box and afterward set up a claim that it's contents had been re- moved.
 The cashiers conditions were ap- parently satisfactory to her and she went away. In 8 day or two she re- turned and confessed that the box was empty. She next astounded him by 8 proposal for him to assist her in a fraudulent transaction. She would de- posit the empty box and the cashier would tell some unknown person who would call. that it contained $500. This proposition was open not only to she former objection, but to the addi- tional one that he could not become an accessory to defrauding her intended victim. ]
 Her next. suggestion betrayed an eccentricity of human nature. It was that he take the box and put $2O into it. This was to enable her to tell the unknown person that the box con- tained money. Of course she could have told him that anyhow, but she strangely wished to avoid an open and entire lie. geAt this point the cashier 6 patience gave way and he fired her out of the bank.
 He did not become acquainted with the intricacies of her scheme, but the face of 1t looked sufficiently fraudulent and silly to discourage closer lnvestiga- tion of it. > It is said that several at- tempts byy her at .blackmailing have been made, but on account of their awkwardnes have invariably resulted in failure

the officials there are inclined to think
that there is nothing substantial in it.
It was said at the department today
that the new namewas suggested by the
postmaster, who IS near relative Of
General Rosser, the noted Vlrsiaian,
not yet reconstructed, and other cit;zsns
of the hamlet Of Appomast0x court
house. Some time ago, By reason of
the burning of the court house and other
buildings at this historic place, a station
on the railroad several miles away was
designated Appomattox b. the depart
ment. THIS did not prove satisfactor?
to the people, who bad been IL the habit
of getting their mail at the old stand and
they asked that they again be given DOS.
tai facilities When the question Of
suitable name came up, The department
was asked to adopt the name Of S1rren-
der. In view Of thu fsct that the psti-
ton contained the names Of some OF the
most prominent people OF that vicinity,
the change was made, and nothing more
was thought about It until the recent
clamor aross ia Virginia. The chances
are that the name Surrender will sssrd,
unless the people of the village &c back
on their former decision and unite in
plea for another nams.-New York

In Memoriam-Mrs. Cora A. Williams,

Mrs Cora A. Williams whose death was an

In Mecklenburg County, Virginia, Sept. 2lst
A. p 1888, and passed from the scenes OF Earth
at her home in Mt Idaho, Idaho, June 7th
when she was about sixteen years of age her
fathers family moved to Tennessee, and soon
after she united with the Church. Here also
she on he 9th day of September. A. d., 1s47
married Mr.. Gideon Z. Williams and a few
years afterward they moved to Idaho, where
they have since resided.
Six children. the issue of their marriage sur
vive; Mac k II NJ, Joe s., Bessie g., Emma
A.. VIM. i. and Rosa G.. the OF whom will
dey0lve upon their father.
As awiie aud mother Mrs. Williams was
iaithiul The care OF the children and house
hold duties absorbed her time in greater
measure than do these the attention of more
favored women; hers was a life of activity and
the children will realize that Home is sad
without mother" The sympathies of friends
ana acquaintances can not fail to be enlisted
In their behalf.
Those who have never passed throuRh a simi.
lar experience, can never know the burden OF
care and sorrow, for the living and sorrow for
,ne departed. that now rests upon and that
must needs be borne by the husband and father.
May me one whose pleading, hear -.elt words
:" ere Come unto me all ye that labor and are
heaVy laden and will give you rest" be the
rod ana staff of the living parent of these
motherless children.
The last days upon Earth Of this faithful wife
ana mother were passed as many others have
was thoughtful of those who were watching
over her and attending her in her sickness.
And as though to add another testimony to the
reality Of The Truth as 1t is in Christ Jesus the
song OF her Redeemer and of His wondrous
love Tor her. realizing too that the hour of her
departure was at hand she bade farewell to ner
little ones and as only mother in tender love
can do, She bade them be good and soon she
died.
Her Spirit went to God who gave it and this
earthly house of her soul was consigned TO the
dust
;, Her trouble Is ended, peaceful is her lot and
IKE one of old she could say, Il know that
my kedeemer hyelh and at the latter day He
shall stand upon the Earth" Our thoughts
revert to the living again and to those who feel
her loss most kindly words seem almost use
less. TO the husband, The Truths of God
wherein He gives Life Everlasting through
Jesus Christ, the Savior of the World-will
come ike ointment and that there IL Balm In
Gilead to his troubled soul be this assurance
"As in Adam all die SO in Christ shall all be
made alive"

attorney Scales on the Decision.
Mr.. EDrToB:-Upon the decis-
ion rendered by Judge CARRIER in
the case of Ailshie VS.. Idaho county,
as published in this issue of the
FREE Press, as a decision have
no comment. But upon the parti-
san and untrue insinuations he
casts upon me personally he goes
beyond the bounds of propriety and
wish to make brief statement
thereon.
The decision says I "studiously"
avoided mentioning or citing the
case of Miller VS.. Logan county, a
recent decision of our Supreme
Court. The citation from the above
case is correctly quoted; but it has
no possible bearing on the case of
Ailshie VS.. Idaho county.
Our statutes make it the duty of
the Attorney-general to appear for
the County in the Supreme Court
when the State is not a party, and
nowhere requires the district at
torney to appear in that court.
Therefore, if the Commissioner
had not employed counsel the situa-
ton would have presented itself of
the Attorney-general appearing for
the State (Which he did) and the
county without an attorney. Is
this an apparent necessity?
Besides, before the action was
brought the Attorney-general had
given his written opinion that the
money could not be expended on
part of the road.
l explained the situation in full
to those who had a right to know,
before / filed an answer, and my
action was entirely approved.
Again, the provisions of our
Revised Statutes give the district
court on appeal the same power of
amendment as in the Probate Court,
and the district attorney can
amend the answer to suit his own
idea; so in no event has the county
lost any rights or waived any
defenses.
The decision ON the pleadings is
for the plaintiff; outside of said
pleadings the County has judg-
ment. w. N. SCALES.
