of John and Hannah Snyder, was born
in Columbia county. n. V, in 1872. She
died in Green Grove Feb. 10, 1898, and
was buried from the Baptist church in
the Montdale cemetery on Feb. II. Rev
Charles White officiating. At the age of
IL years, Mrs. Vail emigrated with her pa
rents from New York state to Pennsyl-
vania, crossing the Hudson river at
Newburg on ice in sleighs in March. They
located in Hyde Park, where they lived
one year then went into the Beach
woods, now known as Greenfield near
Hart lake. She was the eldest of a fam
lily of eight children, two of whom sur
vive her Miss Catherine Snyder, of Green
Grove, and Mrs. Mary Tinklepaugh, of
Chicago, Ill. Elizabeth Snyder at the age
of is was married to David Vail MAY s.

DEATH OF A. F. M'NULTY
IL Was sudden and Almost Wholly
UnpYnectpd by Ills Friends.

Hon. A. f. McNulty, editor of the
Archibald Citizen, died at his home in
Archibald, at o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Mr.. McNulty had been ailing
about three weeks, but his condition
did not become alarming until Friday.
Although he received skillful medical
treatment his complaint steadily be-
came more dangerous, and yesterday
morning he passed away. Death was
due to heart failure.
Mr.. McNulty was we'll and widely
known. He was a resident of this val
ley since infancy, and he spent the
greater part of the forty-five years of
his life in Olyphant. Four years ago
he founded the Archibald Citizen, and
he was identified with it up to the time
of his death During his connection
with the Citizen he lived in Archibald,
and it's pages, ever since it's founda-
tion, have testified to the interest he
took in the affairs of his home. There
were few men in the valley better
known than was Mr.. McNulty. His
long connection with public affairs and
with Democratic politics especially,
made him a familiar figure, and there
were few more willing to give time and
energy for the success of his party than
he. He was elected to the assembly
from the Fourth district in 1881, and
served with credit during the sessions
of 1SS1-S2. The measure with which
he was particularly identified and
which was always a source of pride to
him, was the "mine prop" bill, but he
| was also prominently connected with
| other legislation intended to benefit the
| laborer Many of the measures he in
| troduced at that session have since
| been enacted.
Mr.. McNulty was essentially a self
made man. His education was ac-
| quired in the severe school of exper-
fence and his success was due entirely
| to individual effort. He was we'll in
formed on public affairs, a ready talk
er, a writer of remarkable rigor.
Mr.. McNulty was a member Of Arch
bald branch of the Catholic Mutual
Benefit association, and also of Branch
| 2S, Ancient order of Hibernians. He
is survived by his wife and eight chill
dren. These are: John, Frank, Bern
ard, Agnes, Joseph, Edward, Julia and
Emmett McNulty. His funeral takes
| place on Wednesday morning at !
o'clock. A high mass of requiem will
be sung in st. Thomas church. In.
terment will be in Catholic cemetery.

We had expected that our beloved pres
ident, DIR. Drown, would be with us, but
his health would not permit. Yet am
gratified to know that he is rapidly re-
gaining his health-so long encumbered
and that soon he will be able to re-
sumo his official duties at the head of the

Our joy would know no bounds this
evening could the doctor have shared
this occasion with us, as well as the
others of our beloved friends and faculty
who are necessarily detained. Would that
some dsembodied spirit might bear to
them our greeting this night; might beck
on to them the tidings that i'm the midst
of our festivities, our thoughts went out
to them that without them, our BAN
quet is incomplete-the only dark spot
in our evening of pleasure.
But from their homes there seems to
come the cry: "Our best wishes are with
you let not our absence prove a source
of grief, not cast a shadow of displeas-

The Little Rock Democrat is the au-
Ehority for the kind Of corn lands they
have in that particularly blessed region.
It says: Eight or ten years or so ago
there was a lake near Morrilton cover
Ing about 10000 acres. When the big
foods came two years ngo, an opening
was made by the surging waters which
carried Off all the water Of this lake
when the foods subsided. The bed of
the lake dried up aud left the richest
soil the world ever saw. It is ten feet
leep, and nothing the River Nile ever
produced could eXcelit. This year Mills
Haley have a crop of corn on about
1000 acres of this land. They sowed
the corn broadcast like wheat, and the
stalks are as strong as saplings. and

rXtricate itself because they were so
thick. was killed by those who came
