Found Dead In Bed.

Mrs. Elizabeth Carroll was found dead
in bed at her home on Willow street at 9
O'Clock Monday morning. She had been
dead but short time when found by her
son, Daniel Carroll. Death was due to
heart disease. Since the sudden death OF
her son, John Carroll who, like his
mot her, was found dead in his bed last
August, Mrs. Carroll has lived alone,
being cared for and frequently visited by
her only remaining son, Daniel, whose
efforts to induce her to leave her little
home to live with him were of no avail.
Mrs Carroll had been i'll for some time,
but appeared no worse than usual Sunday.
The deceased was seventy-eight years of
age She was born in Ireland, but after
ward moved to Wales, and from there
came to this country about thirty years
ago, for a number of years residing in
Pittsburg Pa. She has lived in ELS
worth the past thirteen years. Funeral
services We're held at st. Joseph's Catholic
church Tuesday morning.

THE READING ROOM.

Visitors to the reading-room from out
of town always ask: "Who takes care of
the room while the matron goes to her
meals, or when she is obliged to be away
for short timer" and we have always
been proud to answer: "Our visitors"
When the reading-room was opened
three years ago, one OF the questions
which presented itself to our minds was
what we should do at these times, for we
realized that the noon hour was the time
when many people who were busy all day
could drop in to read and rest for few
moments, and our doors must not be
closed to them.
At length we resolved to try the expert
ment of leaving the room in the care OF
the public, and the result has been that

every day the room is opened from a. m.
to p. m., and it has been pleasure to US
to say that our confidence has not been
abused. This rule of ours, however, is
not ironclad, and at any time that we
find that order is not preserved during
the matrons absence the room will be
closed from II to l and from to p. M
These few words are not intended as a
threat nor as a reflection upon anyone,
but only as a friendly warning to any
who may sometimes forget that all the
rules of the reading-room could be con-
densed into this: that we should do unto
OF hers as we would have them do unto us.
All persons having articles to place in
the Woman's exchange, are requested to
bring them in as soon as possible.
Next week will be published the result

Loan and Building Association.

The last meeting for the year 1895 of
the Ellsworth loan and building associa-
tion was held last Monday evening. A
review of the year shows it to be by far
the most prosperous in the history of the
organization. The number of share
holders has doubled; the amount loaned
has doubled, and the outlook for the com
ing year is very bright.
A new series of shares is to be opened in
January. The cost of share is one dol
lar per month.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

George N. McCarty, class of '96, has
left school much to the regret of his
classmates.
The school was honored Monday by
visit from Chaplain d. H. Tribou, who
favored us with a bible reading and
prayer at the opening of school.
Preparations have been made for the
comfort OF our one hundred and twenty
five students this winter. The old school,
house has been made warmer by placing
extra hot-water pipes in the room occu-
pied by Miss Chilcott.
To those of the upper classes who heard
Miss Leah Friend, '99, recite at the Dirigo
concert, the thought occurred that If that
prize defamation scheme was realized,
the seniors would have to do exceeding
well to keep the first honors from falling
to the freshmen.
