THE SUDDEN END
ot AN EyentfuI Life. Sequel to a
California Tragedy.

George Carless was born in England
G7 years ago, and with his family emf
grated later to Canada, went to Cali
fonnia in 1874, finally settled near the
city of Monterey, and has since resided
there, following the occupation of
raising fruit.
About three years ago, one evening
before retiring, he was called out of
his house by man who Informed him
that his cattle had got out of the en-
closure, and while looking them up,
was set upon by masked rutiian and
felled to the ground by "a blow on the
head with u loaded stick, robbed and
left for dead.
About year later his house was en-
tered by burglar intent ,on plunder,
and curing the fracas, Mr. Carless was
shot by the ruffian, the bullet entering
his left side under the heart, passing
out through his back. The effects of the
two assaults made serious inroads on
very robust constitution, and he
never fully recovered has old-time
vigor. His assailant IN both,cases, was
Il near neighbor, a man who stood high
in the community, protesting to be
very religious, and an active worker in
the,church.' He was afterwards caught
In another crime, convicted, ana sent
to the penitentary, where he is now
serving life sentence for his deviltry.
About month ago Mr.. Carless came
eastlto visit his relatives, spending two
weeks in Dakota with one of his sisters,
arising at the home of his brother
Joseph two weeks ago, feeling indis-
posed from the effects of the Journey,
and Al slight cold contracted 'on the
way ,east. On Wednesday of last
week alarming symptoms made their
appearance, followed by a state of
coma. from which he never rallied
passing away Thursday evening. His
body was embalmed and kept till the
arrival of his wife. The funeral SER
vice was held in the Brick Chapel yes
terday, Elder Patton officiating. and
his remains were inferred in Elmweod
cemeterW.

In A RUNAWAY.
A Sad Accident In Our Village Last
Sunday Evening.

A serious accident occurred last
Sunday evening in Yale, in which
Mrs. Lucinda Snider and daughter
Carrie were injured very badly, and
with OTHERS came near losing their
lives. The particulars of the distress
ney and wife, of Colorado. have been
visiting Mrs. Lucinda Snider, Mrs.
Kinney's mother, few days. Sunday
they drove over to stay few days
with relatives in Jeddo, and as the
day was pleasant Mrs. Snider, her
daughters Carrie and Mrs. Geo. Par
ent, her son Frank and Mrs. Hiram
Snider rode over with them. 1t was on
the way back, when almost home, one
of the tugs came unhitc he'd, and the
horses starting suddenly let the pole
down, and then the rig ran right onto
the horses. In an instant the fright
ened brutes started to run. The lines
were jerked out of the hands of the
driver, and nothing could toe done to
stop the maddened brutes. They only
ran short distance when the buggy
WAS overturned and every occupant
thrown to the ground. Mrs. Snider,
who was thrown head first to the
hard ground, had presence of mind to
put out both hands, which undoubted-
ly saved her life, as both arms were
broken 10y the fall. Carrie Snider had
shoulder dlslocated. The others
were badly bruised but escaped broken
bones. The injured once were taken
4 into the house of Will Secor, and
Drs. Ciyne and Wight set the broken
bones and dressed the injuries. All
are doing nicely at present. Mrs.
Snider is "a widow and an old resident
of Yale. She has long supported her
selfaby her industry, and has the re-
spect of everybody. She will nave the
sympathy of the entire community.

A HOME FOR BOYS

Encouraging reports are given OF the
work connected with the "Home Tor
Frieudless BOYS of Maine, located at
Deering, Maine. and under the manage
ment Of the Little Samaritan Aid Society
of Portland. Since the Home was open
ed last December much good has been
accomplished. Sixteen poor boys from
various parts of the state have been
cared for; twelve placed in good
permanent homes where they are having
school privileges. Legal sdoptions have
been given in several cases. Homeless
or destitute boys from any part OF the
state will be admitted 10 the Home. The
vast and growing number Of friendless
and degraded children is matter OF
most serious consideration, and when we
look back upon some poor boy taken
from his evil surroundings, and note the
mental aud moral improvement gained
by the influence of loving care and n
home. then 1t Is that the inestimable
value Of the work is realized. This
Home for Friendless aud Destitute
Bows is pleasantly situated In Deering,
Maine, (Ono-half mile from Westbrook
Junction, and accessible by NJ. c. X. r.,
also Portland Il Rochester X. r. TWEEN
" BOYS can be accommodated In the
Home. Ii Is not the aim Of the society
10 make this an institution, but pleas
ant. comfortable home where boys taken
from their evil surroundings may be
placed and kindly cared for until good,
permanent homes can be obtained Tor
for them. Applications for temporary
board have been numerous. The reiief
