&. w. McCIure's Death.

The article appearing in the INDEX
taken from the Alva Pioneer in regard
to the death of G. w. Mcclure was
somewhat wrong in the statement of
particulars. Following is the correct
statement of the case as given by his
son, j. E. Mcclure: t6s
ION the morning OF the 9th inst. Just
as the frosty-sprinkled dawn was ap-
preaching, L, sleeping with my father
in his cabin on his claim, was aroused
from slumber by a slight gurgle made
by him. Thinking it an uncommon
noise L spoke to him and, receiving no
answer; shook him gently; but as still
no reply came l raised him up IN my
arms, when to my utter horror and
amazement l found that life was leav-
ing him. and in less than a minute he
was GREATNESS. l bathed his fore head
and rubbed him, with dim hope of sue
cess, but all in vain. He had gone to
that golden shore whence no man re-
turDeth. The chill of death crept over
his aged form and in pale and gloomy
silence l laid him in the wagon and
started Immediately on the lonesome
and dreary journey of conveying him to
his former home. 1 came via Alva and
from there was accompanied by an ac-
quaintance the rest of the trip.
Father and / were awake about an
hour before he died and conversed with
each other. He seemed to be perfectly
rational and well, and have every
reason to believe that the cause of his
his sudden and unwarned death was the
fatal heart disease

About so per cent. of the pupils of
school we're in attendance this morning,
the absentees being considered due to
tue scarlet fever scare. Directors Lind
ley and Houchin visited the school this
morning to confer with the teachers re-
garding the advisability of q vacation,
and concluded that such action would
hardly be justi6able at present. No
new cases are reported and the old ones
are doing very well.
in another place in this issue will
be found an announcement by the Citi-
Zens' State Bank stating that ninety
cents will be paid for the January issue
of scrip. This is welcome news and
will serve to largely dispel the feeling
of insecurity among scrip holders. 1t
has been predicted by many that Is
cents would be the highest price paid
at the start and the arguments of those
who were in favor of the par PROPOSE
ton were based on this assumption.
There has been great nue. aud cry
about IS cent scrip and deprecated
credit; and now at the outstart of scrip
purchasing, the bank In which the
county fluids are deposited offers 80
cents. There is every prospect of a
gradual rise until par Is again reached.
All this borrowed trouble over the mat
ter has been for naught, and now every
one will be able to see the wisdom of
the INDEX position on the subject.
With the deposits drawing 81 per cent.
interest and scrip at so with an upward
tendency, there can be no possible doubt
but that the county is reaping far more
benefit than it would from the par ar
rangement. The worst is past and
there is no immediate reason for fall
in scrip value. With economic admin
istratiOn of county affairs and leyies
sufficient to meet expenses the county
paper may soon be raised to par. We
have advocated the present arrange
ment from sense of duty and We have
no apology to offer at this time, believ-
| ing that those who have differed car
see that it has turned out better. not
wIthstanding all their pessimistic pre-.
dictions. The Citizens Bank has Ger.
tainly returned the favor with which
they have been treated by the county
| and for this they are to be commended
