Fatal Accident.

On last Wednesday afternoon dis
stressing and fatal accident occurred IN

Ter. one OF the widely and favorably
known river farmers of that section, lost
hi. life, being instantly killed.
Our informant states that Mr.. Beydler
had lust driven up to the front Of store
in road cart, when hin horse became
frightened by the actions OF another
horse. and starting of suddenly threw
Mr.. Beydler backward from the cart,
breaking his neck and causing instant
death. He became entangled in the
cart and was dragged about hundred
wards before the frightened animal was
stopped. Medical assistance was prompt

the crowd OF sympathizing friends who
had collected around the scene we're
shocked to fnd that be whom they bad in
timately known for many years, and one
who but few minutes before was fuii
of life and animation had passed from
time to eternity in one h7eting moment.

from this life of sorrow and suffering to
rest in the arms of a ssinted mother who
proceeded her to that "home of the soul,
that far away lard where all is perfect
bliss and peace.
Although the human heart will assert
itself and the tendrils that had entwined
themselves around this beloved little one
with deathless affection must bleed and
suffer, and the dark shadow of sore be-
reavement brood over this strick en- home
vet is there consolation; for blessed
Savior of infinite love and mercy, has as

Little Roth was born January 3rd

The farmers In Our section are abou
through gathering in their flooded corn
a few are still busy seeding, aud trying
to improve their washed lands. theS
having suffered greatly along the river
from the loss of their corn and the wash
ing of the land,
We are glad TO report that Mrs. Malph
Spiggleis improving from her long illness
Hope she will soon be able to be on
again.
Mr. Levi McILturff and wife were visit
ing their daughter on Cedar Creek for
few days last week.
Our. friend, Samuel Higgins, has beet
complaining very much for two or three
weeks. We hope the Doctor will soon be
able to be at work again.
Our public schools in this section will
soon open with Miss Susan McInturff AZ
teacher at Hotels School House, and
Mr. Chas. Dellinger at BOwman's. The
patrons should use their influence in help
ing these schools along and making them
useful to the children during the coming
winter. We have good teachers at both
places and the boys and girls who attend
should appreciate their opportunity and
conduct themselves properly.
Some time since our section wa, visited
by an unknown man who pretended to
sell badges and organize clubs. When
he struck free silver man he was Of
that faith and when he met sound
money person he was the same. l don't
think be was anything but tramp and
his real business was to strike some ones
table about meal time. He claimed to be
from Washington, D. c., and that was
probably the truth. He was from there
but never of there.
1t was reported that Genl. Williams
would address the people of our section
at Hotels School House, on Saturday
night, bat owing to the rain the Genl.
did not get to make his free and unlimit-
ed amount of silver speech. Silyerites
are very scarce in this section, but 1t the
General will come and give US a sound
money talk such as he can we'll and ably
do, we will give him or any one else a
good turn ont.
Some time since three of our young men
we're standing along the road side and
two young ladies went by. After they
had passed the young fellows grew so
mad with themselves because they could
not 90 with them that they threw their
bats on the ground and jumped on them.
Now they will have to wait until after
the election to see if they can get free
silver enough to buy new hats.
Mr.. Milton Rush had a lot of hands
thresbing at hfs place on the liver one
day last week and as the dust was thick
IN the barn and bard on the workers he
thought be would give them a swig of
brandy to cut the dust ont OF their
throats before supper. So he went to
the barrel and drew a lot in backet
from which he filed the bottle for the
boys, putting the bucket with the re-
malnder in the kitchen. Forgetting
this when he went to wash he dipped
the brandy into basin and commenced
to apply it literally to his face, and when
the smell attracted his attention he said
lie Thought it was only tae darned soar
! that sunk so.
We would be glad if our road master
would repair little piece Of road that IL
almost impossible at the Funkhousel
ford near Levi McInturfi's. Hours truly,
The Tramp.

The beautiful life of little Ruth French
vent out, Oct. 2Otb, 1:I0 p. m. at Mr..
NJ. V. Freneh's Woodstock, Va.
She was the youngest OF the four in
reresting children of Mr. William French
Since her mothers death, she with the
rest of the family, lived at her grand
fathers happy home where she died. She
was one of It's charms. Sweet, bright and
winsome with her Toying kisses and
caresses as happy childhood can be 1t Is
no wonder that the sew ering of the NOR
tai chord was severe to the home circle
There she met everybody with Lappy
smile and Iehearsed the events Of interest
in her childish prattle and charming bird
like murmer or begged a ride so adroltly
tnat none could refuse her company, al
WAYS so entertaining. The careful train
ing and care she repaid with thousand
arts. How all miss her. The bright ray
of light like ftful sunbeam across the
path of life has been caught up to it,
kindred element. The 'patter OF the Iittl'
feet, which carried for nearly five year
the sunny face and pretty curls, rests an'
the countenance is aglow with the "a di
ance of heaven.
