THEIR LATEST FREAK.
BOOMERS BREAK AN ENGAGEMENT
BETWEEN A NEW YORK COUPLE.

Walton IN. " special New
York HrraLd.. The bloomer cos
tune has been the means of
breaking the marriage engage
ment of Frank Hammond and
Lilly Drew.
Miss Drew who is an expert
wheelwoman, donned a bloomer
costume last week. On Saturday
she met her hance on the road
near her home. She was clad
in the full garb OF the new
woman, and the Young man was
SO enraged at the sight that he
Indignantly demanded what she
ment by making such an appear
ance.
why, Frank. this is the most
approved style tor lady cyclists
now, and what possible objection
can you have to my being i'll
fashion," answered the girl, with
laugh.
The rig is one Of the most
abolninable outfits a girl ever
wore, exclaimed the young man,
land l want to say right here
that unless you discard that mode
of dress forever our intended
marriage will not take place
The two eyed each other close
ly for a moment, and then Miss
Drew slipped from her finger
the engagement ring and hand
ed it back to Mr.. Hammond with
the remark :
VERY we'll, Mr.. Hammond,
here is your ring. The new
woman has a mind Of her own,
and will not submit to such a
dictatorial spirit under any cir
cumstances.
Hammond was greatly sur
prised at the outcome Of his in
terview, but his hatred of the new
costume was too strong
to admit Of repentance and he
went his way. The friends Of
both persons declare that there
will never be a reconciliation. /

A CITY OF CHURCHES.

Nothing speaks better for a
town than the fact that it is a
CITY of Churches.
Edenton has eight houses of
worship, four for white people
and four for the colored people,
representing four denominations,
Baptist, Methodist, Episcopal
and Roman Catholic.
There are few towns i'll North
Carolina where SO deep and fer
vent an interest is taken in re-
ligious matters as III Edenton,
and as a rule the churches are
botn largely attended and we'll
sustained.
The Ministers of the city are
entirely consecrated to the work
of the Master, and are working
earnestly and successfully III His
cause.

DIED.

On Tuesday, Aug. 18th, at
their home on Ocean Avenue,
Long Branch, N. J., Edwin
Thomas Booth, infant son of DR..
and Mrs. Joseph Booth; age IS
days.
Fare thee we'll, Sweetest babe,
There's many heart that pines thy
dear image to see,
There arc fond eyes that wcpt when
they saw thee depart,
Still heavy with weeping for thee.
There is weeping Oh earth for the lost,
There is bowling in grief to the ground,
But rejoicing and praise mid the sane
tilted host,
For a spirit i'll Paradise found.
He hath gone i'll the bud-time of life,
Ere his sky had been di1nmed by a
cloud.
From the hearts that had grown to his
own,
Like a dream of the nigh: he hath flown;
And the earth hath received to its
bosom its trust.
Ashes to ashes. and dust to dust.

Federal flags in the encampnent

the attention of some of the best

Death of Mrs. Hoskins

After d long and painful illness,
Alice, wife of Gabriel Hoskins, died
at their residence in Reno at $40
o'clock yesterday morning. The de-
ceased lady was, almost from her in.
fancy afflicted with asthma, which,
since about the first Of the present
year was complicated and intensified
by severe attack of dropsy, which
was the immediate cause or her
death.
She was born in Sacramento, Cal.
ifornia, in 1859, and was the youngest
of the will-known Mckinley family,
the pioneer dramatic combination of
Nevada, Idaho and Montana. She
was married to Gabriel Hoskins at
Aurora, Esmeralda county, Nevada,
In 1879. Since that time they have
lived at Tuscarora, Elko. and Winnie
mucca, until apout four years ago when
they moved to Reno where they re.
sided at the. time of her death. Be-
sides her husband she leaves a mother,
who was residing with her, daugh-
ter, a bright little girl Of seven years,
brother, R. H. Mckinley, the we'll
known theatrical manager, and sis.
ter, Mrs. Mary Eggleston. who resides
in San Francisco.
Although an invalid for years, and
In fact during the greater portion Of
her Life, she maintained through it all

fering was at times almost indescrib.

she bore her Affections with such pa

the end was near at hand she mani
tested no fear or dependency, and APP

and happiness Of the dear ones she
would leave behind. She frequently

and her confidence and reliance in
His omnipotent power and mercy.
