Death of Mrs. s, L, Mcbride, of New
Columbus.

In this death was the peculiar con.
dition of dying without any immediate
heirs. And being possessed of pro.
perty to the value of several thousand
dollars, eleven nieces were chosen as
her principal benehciaries. Being a
Bowman previous to marriage, she
was related to that popular bishop
well known in the Methodist church
Thomas Bowman, and like the bishop
she was possessed of more than ordi-
nary christian zeal, there being no
matter of importance to the church
but what she was interested in it. Her
suffering ELECTED much sympathy from
neighbors and friends, because of the
excruciating pain she bore before
death ensued. 1t resulted from hernia
and internal strangulation. Preferring
1t, she lived alone after the death OF
her second husband, Hugh Mcbride.
The children that she had with her
first husband, Fletcher Emory, died
some time ago, as did also her only
child and offspring of Mr.. Mcbride.
She expired at the age of 76 surround
ed by christian friends and relatives,
and was buried at Dodson Chapel,
Luzerne county, Pa.

The Little speculator,"

Real estate speculations in a boom
town in the west form a basis of Her,
bert Hall Winslow's farcical comedy
"The Little Speculator" in which
Eloise Willard and her company will
shortly be seen here. The play COM
bires all the elements of comedy, farce
and extravaganza, and is keen satire
upon peculiar phrase of life intro
ducing all the odd and comical char
acters found in the mushroom cities
of the west. In Culpepper City there
is but one building and that one a
real estate Office but the town becomes
exceedingly lively before the play ends
and the ludicrous situations follow
each other in quick succession keep
ing the audience in a continual roar
of laughter.

A CRY FOR HELP,

Not since the Johnstown flood has
there been such a demand for sym.
pathy and help as comes to us now
from Western Kansas and Nebraska.
For several years crops have been al
| most failure and this year particu-
larly, so that the people there are too
poor to get away or even to remain
there.
Rev. DR.. Barnitz, of the Lutheran
Church, whose territory as Western
Secretary of Home Missions covers
that field, has spoken through the
Church papers and an effort is being
made to send carload of such
things as he mentions for their relief.
Nobody here so poor but can spare
something for their suffering brethren.
1t will be distributed with reference
only to the need and without regard 10
where they belong.
Bring your package and leave it at
the Lutheran Church any time this
week and it will be forwarded next
Tuesday.
The following is synopsis of the
appeal as sent out by the Susquehanna
Synod:
"DEARLY BELovED:-A great Ca
lamity has come upon many Of the
brethren of our household of Faith in
the far west, occasioned by the pro-
longed drouth of last summer, and
many are suffering from the cold and
for want of enough to eat.
What shall we send 4? Anything
that can be used to feed the hungry
and clothe the naked-grain, seed
wheat, flour, groceries, dried and can,
ned fruits, smoked meats, clothing,
shoes, &c. They need not be new
but clean and mended up. Do not
send perishable articles.
Let the attic be visited and the
wardrobe sorted out, and whatever we
can spare let us send Immediately to
Sunbury, care of Rev. DR.. Weber.
Pack your boxes quickly and we will
arrange to have the car start on IT'S
merciful mission by the aoth inst,
that it may bring Christmas Joy or a
Happy New Year to the suffering"
