POsTOFFICE COMBINE.
Fairmont and Palatine May be United
in the SerVice-Dwight Mfller's
Discharge.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Captain
w. w. Scott and Postmaster Stealey,
of Palatine, were here yesterday to lay
before the department an application
for the consolidation OF the postoffice
in that place with the Office in Fair
mont. The object of the movement
is TO extend the carrier system Of
mail delivery to Palatine. The APP
plication is backed by a petition
signed by nearly all Of the patrons of
the latter town.
If successful, the community TO be
served by carriers will comprise not
less than 5000 population, and the
service will have the additional advan-
tage of being permanent, since no or
binary fluctuation would reduce the
receipts below the sum required.
The matter was submitted to Sena-
tor Elkins and Representative Dayton
who promised to assist in placing the
request before the department. The
plan contemplates postoffice station
in Palatine and will add two or more
carriers TO the service who will be
selected from the eligible list.
DR.. w. S. Hamilton, of Fairmont,
and Mr. Horner Ewing, of Gilmer
county, are of the West Virginia list

presented for the discharge from ser
vice of Professor Miller's son, Of Nor
gantown, a member Of the Second

Death of Mrs. A. w LOrentz.

Mrs. Mary r. Lorentz, wife of A..
W. Lorentz, passed peacefully into
the externally calm" this morning
at o'clock.
She had been serenely awaiting
this call through several years of in
validism. During this period she
has been several times nursed back
to life by the care of loving friends,
when the vital spark seemed to have
extinguished. Last night it burned
low, but relying on her tenacity of
life her friends felt no unusual
alarm. But as day was breaking
over the hills this morning, her
spirit quietly took its fight into the
daylight of her eternal home.
She was a good woman. Her life
and death were beautiful illustra-
tions of the genuine christian spirit
She was lovingly loyal to her friends !;
full of tender sympathy; impulsive
in her generosity; her bright face
was lighted up even through suffer
ing, and was ever radiant with the
sweetest emotions of the human
heart.
Thus the life time associations of
our community with one of the best
of its numbers have been severed.
She grew up and lived her life here
and the community is better for her
living in it. There are very many
and very tender friendships that are
bereaved by her death. They will
keep her memory green, while sorrow
for her loss will find solace in the
assurance that she is safe sin the
everlasting arms" ~
