A SAD STORY.
The Story of the Life Of Mrs.
Priscilla Miller, the Old Lady
who Paid Worthington a Visit
Short Time Ago.

Mrs. Priscilla Miller, the old lady
who was in Worthington short time
|ago, and who is receiving support
from charitably-inclined people over
the country, was in Dubuque, Iowa,
the other day, and was taken in charge
of by police matron. Her mind is
evidently unbalanced, but while she
was interviewed by reporter Of the
Globe journal, her mind seemed to
wander back to her early days. The
Globe Journal saws:
She said she was born in a small
town near Ottawa, Ill. ,on Jan. %, 1922.
Her father was a merchant, we'll off,
and was able to give his daughter the
benefit of the best schools of that day.
She was a handsome girl and had
scores of admirers, and the other girls
of the village were all jealous of her.
She married rich southern planter
on June Is, 1852, and went south to
her husbands home, where they lived
happily until the breaking out of the
war. Her husband raised the First
South Carolina infantry and distin-
guished himself in several engage
ments, receiving a death wound at
Shiloh. During the war all her hus-
bands property went to waste, but
she managed to save $4,000 in gold
Five children were born to her and at
the close of the rebellion they ac-
companied their mother north. She
went to her old home near Ottawa
afterward removing to Dubuque, where
she lived two years. She was the
first white woman to 60 into the Grip
pie Greek country. It was her son
who located the Independence mine
in Colorado. All of her children are
now dead. 1t was at Pueblo, COL.
where she found herself without
money and then she became discour-
LACED and commenced her wandering
career.
/ She claims to be the cousin of
Frank Brownell, the soldier who
killed jackson at Alexandria, Va,
after he (Jackson) had assassinated
Col. Ellsworth. She claims to have
had brother killed in the New Ulm,
| Mimi, massacre in 1862 Mrs. Miller
is 76 years old.

=. A LITERARY TREAT.
Entertainment for the Coming
Winter.

Our city has long been in need of
a good course of literary and must
cal entertainments such as are held
in most all places. And if the peo-
pie of the town will give them aid,
the Epworth League intends, during
the coming winter, to put on course
that will be strictly first class in
every respect. Tbs course as plan
cd will be star course and will COD
sist Of four entertainments: The
Park Sisters Quartette, The Imperial
Welsh Male Quartette, Arion Cook
Combination and Fred Emmerson
Brooks-Th,e musical entertain
ments and one lecture. In order to
make this go, IT'S season tickets will
have to be sold beforehand at $500
each. Otherwise single admission
will be Is cents. A canvass will be
made soon to see what can be done
Il is hoped that our citizens will re-
spond in liberal manner. We al,
WAYS have more or less entertain
ments every winter but not what will
equal these, and the price they are Of
fered at places them within the reach
of all.
We hope to see the venture a 60
and the League is to be congratulate
ed on their undertaking and espec
tally on the fine quality of the talent
to be procured.

To Their. Pastor.

= We, the members Of the Congrega-
tiunal church of Worthington, in
view of the resignation of our beloved
pastor, Rev. Robert MsCune, and re-
Numbering that since he was chosen
pastor of our church in 1891 he has
faithfully performed the duties per-
tanning to that position, and has
clearly, forcibly, zealously set before
us the truths of the Bible, and the
gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, and
remembering that he has been a
kind and considerate friend at all
times, has visited us in trouble and
sickness, rejoiced with us in prosper
ity, comforted the sorrowing, consol-
ed thedying, has performed often the
ceremony that unites loving hearts in
the holy bonds of matrimony, has
christened our children, and has
laid not few of our number to rest
in the quiet city on the hill, when the
spirit has gone to be forever with the
Lord who gave it; thus in all pastor
al and social relations, faithfully and
thoroughly Acquiring himself as a
brother in the church and citizen Of
the community,
Therefore, as he is about to take
his departure from our midst, We, hi:
people, desire to make this expression
of our esteem, and to testify our ap
probation of his faithful labors, anc

MANY HINk!

when the Creator said to woman,
"1n sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children" that a curse was pro-
nounced against the human race,
but the JOY felt by every Mother
when she first presses to her heart
her babe, proves the contrary.
Danger and suffering Turk in
the pathway of the Expectant
Mother, and should be avoided,
that she may reach the hour when
the hope of her heart is to be real
lied, in full vigor and strength.
