Eureka Asssssorship Contest.

The GreRovich- Powell contest for the
ofiice of Assessor of Eureka county has
beon In progress before Judge Fitzger-
aid In tho District Court since last
Thursday. So far the attorneys and

count of the ballots. AS the count pro-

object to the allowance of votes mimi
cal to the interest of their clients when
over the most careful compliance with
the provisions Of the Australian ballot
law have not been followed.
In the count OF Eureka precinct, No.
|, one hundred and fifteen votes for
Gregovich are undisputed, and sixty
six votes are disputed. Eighty-two for
Powell are undisputed and fifty-two are
disputed. This leaves a majority of
thirty-three undisputed ballots for
Gregovich in the town precinct. with
sixty-six disputed votes for the Court
to rule upon, and fifty-two votes for
Powell, disputed by plaintiff, for the
Court to rule upon.
In tho matter OF the Ruby Hill pre-
cinct, eighteen votes for Gregovieh are
undisputed and six disputed twenty for
Powell are undisputod, and seven dis
puted.
The principal point in tho contest will
be In the allowance or rejection OF the

Mcfarland was killed in the battle.
He is brothar-in-law of the editor OF
this paper and has many warm friends
here. Other reports, published in the
Enquirer. Courier-Journal and larger
papers. say he is only wounded in the
leg. The latter report is accepted as
the correct one, as the battle took
place last Saturday and all the regi-
mental officers being acquainted with
Capt. Netherlands family, and know
ing their address, would certainly have
informed them had he been killed.
Capt. Mcfarland is very large man

him to fall As the company was

than anticipated. Some fields have
threshed out 90 to IS bushels per acre.
The berry is small and unfortunately
more or less smut appears which dam

pecially if in the grain. From what
we can learn the market is unsettled
and probably will start at 60 to Csc.
We understand several sales have been

the weather be favora BILE for threshing

Death of Mrs, HerndOn.

After months of untold suffering
from complication of throat and lung
diseases, Mrs Helen X. Herndon, wife
of Capt. William Herndon, died in this
city Sunday morning at s O'Clock.
Mrs Herndon had been in bad health
for many years and for several months
was bedfast. She was the oldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. H.
Kinnaird. The life o. Mrs. Herndon
was surely pure one. She was a
jealous christian and the most loving
and devoted mother we ever knew.
She had such deep love for her family
that when she was suffering the great
est pain she asked them to remain out
of sight, that they may not suffer by
seeing her suffer. A short time before
her death she called each of her chill
dren in and admonished them to put
their trust in God, live a Christ-lilSe
life and they would surely meet her
in place where they would be forev-
err united. Mrs Herndon was a IN en-
Der of the Presbyterian church and
was brought up to study the bible and
practice it's teachings. The early
training given by her pious mother
never left her, and she went through
life God-loving and God-fearing
christian. The husband and children
have the sympathy of all the commu-
nifty in their great bereavement. They
should remember that their loss is
her gain. as she is, according to the
teachings o: the bible, now where no
suffering is known and where she will
peacefully await the sounding of the
trump which will usher in the glad
resurrection morn.
