Poisoned Eating Laurel.

Mrs. f. Stephenson was called to
Driftwood yesterday to attend the
funeral OF a grandson, George Vosburg,
aged four years, youngest son of Sher-
man and Maude Vosburg, who died at
100 A. NJ, Monday from eating laurel
on Saturday. The little boy and a
brother and sister were out in the woods
nearby their home playing and gathered
mountain tea berries and leaves, and
the supposition is that the boy ate
laurel in mistake for mountain tea
The boy was feeling well when he went
to bed Saturday night but before mid
night he took sick and suffered terribly
until he died. A doctor was called and
everything that could be done to save
his life was done, but without the
desired effect.

Used a Revolver.

A ripple Of excitement was created
on Main street last Thursday evening
by William Burris shooting at Charles
Fry. There are two or three stories as
to the cause OF the unfriendly feeling
that exists between Burris and Fry, but
1t was OF such a nature that Burris must
have anticipated trouble and was pre-
pared for it. Burris was on his way up
town Thursday evening when Fry and a
companion met him near the opera
house, presumably with the intention
OF thrashing him, and when they called
a halt on Burris he drew revolver and
began firing at Fry. Three shots were
fired but fortunately, in tho excitement,
Burris missed his man and there was
no blood shed. One ball grazed Frys
right leg close enough to break the
skin and the ball dropped down into
his shoe.

r. II. Wilson Had a Close Call.

Robert Fl. Wilson, proprietor Of the
large planning mill in West Reynolds
vile, had close cali Monday forenoon
while at work in his mill. He was run
ming a crooked hemlock board through
a double-saw ripper and two pieces Of
the board caught in one of the saws and
were hurled back at Mr.. Wilson. One
piece had sharp end and the other
had square end. The sharp end piece
just missed Mr.. Wilson's left side and
ran through an inch board near him.
The other piece struck him on the
breast-bone, just above the pit Of the
stomach, and knocked the wind out Of
him for a few minutes. He was feeling
very comfortable yesterday.

creek resembling a human body. They
followed IL down the creek some dis

get hold Of 1t and pull it to shore, when
ii was found to be the body OF a small
boy. Word was at once sent to Mr..

Bold hearts and fair bOsOms adorning,

Or worship meath plane, tree or steeplc,
Some exile from Erin" Is there,
Ana SAD though he may be and lonely
He wears next the cross OF lffs God
On his heart the dead shamrock that only
Can bloom upon Erin's green sod.
Far went DER the limitless prairie,
Far south ttast the spice breathing isles,
That morning hs In Tipperdry
Each exile Is j0cnnd and smiles.
The smiles from his biUw vanish sorrow,
He conjures up blessings to come,
Hopes on for brighter tomorrow,
And revels In visions Of home.
