Irene Perry, the pretty actress is singing

The man she married is raving in an in
sane asylum. Albert Weber was rich
piano manufacturer, and his ruin which is
moral, physical and financial, was brought
about by wine, women and fast living
Irene Perry married him for love, she says
and because she was tired of the glamour
or stage life. AT that time Weber was not
a rich man, but he had enough to give his
to neglect her, however, and after vainiy
trying to reclaim him and to ignore his
escapades and shameless exploits, his wife
gave up in despair and obtained divorce

THE row. boat Fox" that left New York
for Havre, France, June 6, arrived off the
coast of England last Saturday. The two
occupants of the boat were well, but some-
what exhausted from the effects OF their
long row. The boat is eighteen feet and
four inches long and FIVE feet wide, and car
ried provisions for sixty days.
THE cholera outbreak at Alexandria
Egypt, has got beyond the control of the
sanitary authorities. For nine months
they fought the disease with energy, and +,
as long as the infected areas were small,
the limited force OF European doctors was
sufficient to handle it.. Now, however, the
dimensions of the outbreak forbid any sue
cessful attempt to stamp out the disease.
During seven days in July there were LOO
deaths, and 80 far 5000 deaths from this
disease have been officially reported.
IT is rumored that Queen Victoria is soon
to abdicate the throne in favor of the
Prince of Wales 1t seems that there may
be some foundation for the report, as the
queen seems to feel greatly her cares and
bereavements. 1t il said she will retire to
Bamoral and Osborne and give the prince
the use of Windsor Castle and Buckingham
Palace. Her majesty is quoted az saying
during her last stay in London, on the oc
casion of the marriage Of the Princess
Maude, This is my last visit to London"

thill Trouble then began in good earnest,
and but for the timely help from j. X.
Lynde's store, in getting the animal by the
head, a serious accident might have Oc-
Cured.
One day recently, as Paul Wilfore and
John St. Armand were digging a deep
ditch for water-pipe for Bert Robinson,
on the old Warren Poole place, the sand
caved in on to them, burying them nearly
to their necks. But for help at hand they
might have had worse fate.
Mrs. Abbie Howe Pierce died on Friday
morning last and was buried from the Meth
odist church on Sunday afternoon; Her
age was sixty-six. A husband, residing in
Chicago, and son, living in California, sur
vive her. She was the second daughter OF
the late Mr.. and Mrs. Enoch Howe, and
worthy woman.
Mrs. Chester Martin, who was crippled
somewhat by the breaking OF hip some
two years ago, fell last Wednesday and
broke two ribs and the bone below the knee
| OF the injured limb. She was standing near
a short flight of steps in her woodshed, and,
in trying to reach up to box, lost her bal
| ance and went down the steps. She seems
| to be doing as we'll as could be expected
and Dr. e. B. Watson has hopes Of her
speedy recovery.
Hon. John Lynde, who has been an in
valid for some time, died on Monday morn
ing at the age OF eighty-six. By the town,
with whose affairs he was long and prorni-
nently identified, by the Congregational
church, OF which he had been for many
years useful member, his departure will
be keenly felt and deeply mourned. The
funeral will be observed to-day (Wednes-
day., at one o'clock, at the Congregational
church. An appropriate sketch OF Mr.
Lynde's life will be given later.
Following are the preamble and resolu.

The leading republicans of Denver, Col,
met last Saturday and resolved to ask Sem

and voted with the republicans to demand
Mr.. Wolcott's resignation.
A CYCLONE swept over the country adj
jacent to Button, Ind, last Thursday,
clearing everything in its path. Orchards
were literally destroyed. A large barn was
blown down, burying cattle and horses in
the debris. At Huntington many build
ings were damaged trees were twisted off
and grain-tields were ruined.
THERE were twenty-three cases of sun
stroke at GAINESVILLE, Tenn, last Thursday.
The mercury registered one hundred de-
grees in the shade. A farm hand fell dead
near Kennedy. Garnett Roach, wealthy
young Kentucky planter, was overcome in
the tobacco field and is in a critical condi-
ton Sixteen workmen on water main
were Frustrated. Three workmen on the
electric street railway and two street grad
ing hands were overcome. 1t was the hot
test day experienced in years.
THE Catskill branch of the Union Pacific,
Denver & Gulf railroad, forty miles in
length, was entirely destroyed by the re-
cent floods in Colorado. This branch runs
from Trinidad, Col, to the Maxwell land
grant in New Mexico. So complete has
been the destruction of the road-bed that
the receiver is of the opinion that the old
line will be abandoned and new survey
made over more desirable route. The
line is valuable one, as nearly all the rail
road ties used in that section of the country
come from the vicinity of Catskill.

as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best

Democrats Get Registered.

Although the time prescribed by law for
| weeks distant it is not too early to remind
the Democratic voters of this county of
the Importance of attending to this duty,
if they wish to cast their votes at the com
islature new registration law was enact
ed, which requires every voter in the State
to get newly registered, and no man can
vote this year who does not get his name
the old registration books have been wiped
out of existence. Every vote not put on
the registration books this year is lost.
There are only seven days set apart, under
the new law, in which the thousands
voters of the county are to be registered.
These days are as follows:
Tuesday, September Is.
Tuesday, September 90.
Wednesday, September %.
Tuesday, September 20.
Wednesday, September 30.
Tuesday, October &.
"Wednesday, October Z.
The local managers in every district in
the county should apprise the voters of the
necessity of getting their names on the
books. 1t will take good work to get the
three thousand or more Democratic votes
registered, and it is well to keep the mat
ter before the people, even this far ahead
of the time for the sittings of the officers
of registration.
