Killed in the Woods.

George Moore, aged twenty-five years,
son of Jacob Moore OF Horn Settlement.
was instantly killed Monday morning
in the woods while at work on the
Burtop track in Beechwoods. George
and several other men were working
close together when he was suddenly
hurled into eternity. A hemlock tree
was cut down and when the tree fell
the top of a mapel tree, that is supposed
was broken and leaning on the hemlock,
quietly dropped down on the young man
with fatal results. His head, shoulders
and breast were badly crushed. The
funeral services were held at the home
OF his parents at 1000 A. M. yesterday
and his remains were inferred in the
Beechwoods cemetery. The young
man was unmarried but expected to be
married the Fourth of July, or little

10 increase the school tax sufficiently to
be able to pay Prof. Mitchell a salary OF

consider the request to increase the
school millage, and they could not have
increased it even II they had made the

For few moments Moses stood as II
he had just been sentenced to the coun-

"Keow" said he to himself "Efshe'd
asked me to guv her de handr Of a milk
pail hain't got none," and then, turn
ing, he walked mournfully away.
When Aunt Belinda opened her door
the next morning and looked out upon

in front Of the house. His hands were

At this moment a sudden noise was
heard inside the house, stool was
tumbled over the floor, a table was
pushed roughly to one side, there was
quick stamping of feet and in an in
slant Moses Lipscomb, his eyes glaring
and his head lowered like bull ready
to charge q matador, appeared in the
doorway.
''Git, you, Aaron!" cried Aunt Belin-
da. The injunction was not needed.
The long-legged sutton gave one glance
at the doorway. This was not the first
time he had seen Moses Lipscomb with
his head down and his eyes glaring,
and without hesitating he turned and
fled, with Moses after him, roaring like
an infuriated king Of the herd.
Aaron's legs were very long; his silk
hat fell off, and he did not stop to pick
1t up, and his fright and his strides
were so great that he soon left his pur-
suer far behind. Moses stopped and,
giving the hat kick that would have
done credit to college football man,
and, shaking his fist after his flying
foe, he shouted:

house He was very well dressed, but
not after the fashion Of Moses. His
hat was high, but 1t bore no untimely
Grape; his clothes were black, and fitted
him very well; his cravat was white,
and In his hand he carried a cane with
q silver head.
"Mornin', Sister Tinsley," said he, "a

Belinda; "ef yous got time ter stop, sot

He lifted his hand deprecatfngiy.
Never, Sister Tinsley, never you wait
ON me. OATS my part; l waits On you"
and briskly stepping inside he brought
cut chair.
The newcomer sat down, put his hat
on the grass and his cane beside it, and
then, leaning slightly forward, clasped
his two long black hands between his
knees. He was many shades darker
than Aunt Belinda, and several years
older. His face was long, and rather
thin. After few remarks about the
weather and the craps he proceeded
to business.

simple and ragged, but now he was at
tired in grand style. On his head was
a high, black silk hat, somwhat bat
tered and rusty, with broad band Of
Grape around it; he wore a yellow
waistcoat, much too large for him, and
a blue coat with furnished brass but
tons, some of them missing, which
was so small for him that he was
obliged to throw out his chest very
much to keep his shoulders back in
order that he might not split 1t along
Its spinal seam His trousers were Of
brown linen, clean and very much
starched, with the bottom Of the legs
frayed and worn In such a way that
the starched threads hung over his
wel-blaokened boots like icicles over
the mouth Of cavern. His collar was
high and evidently unpleasant to his
jaws His large cravat had once been
all crimson, but portions Of 1t had now
faded into brown. and from the ont
side pocket of his coat projected the
corner Of white silk handkerchief.
As the visitor approached he took off
his hat but before he could speak
Aunt Belinda sprang to her feet.
n"You, Moses Lipscomb!' she cried.
"Wot you mean, comm hyar rugged
up like dat? Has you got the i'm

silently gazing at her visitor and then
she broke out: IF ever see a hedge
