Der 18th, 1899, Mrs. Isabella I.
WilIiams,-Age 80 years, 3 m,
and Ii days.
The deceased, Miss Isabelle I.
Hope was born in McHenry Co,

years since, and was united in mar.
rage to B O Williams, yard mas
ter in this city on the F E l. M v
railroad, on February 23rd 1883,

her suffering has been great until
4 o'clock yesterday, death came to
set her free. She leaves q husband

6 years of age to mourn her loss.
Funeral from the family resi-
denc on 7th street, at p. M, SIM.
day, Rev. g. A. Campbell, Of the
Baptist church, and burial in Rose
Hill Cemetery.
Death under all circumstances
brings sorrow to the human heart
but leaving little children to meet
lifes battles without the loving
care of "a mother only adds sadness
to the wounded heart.
The sympathy of our citizens
go out to the sorrowing ones in
this honr Of gloom.

Unproductive Hold Up.

With the suasion of 4a*ell de-
veloped revolver, a lone highway
man last night "held ups Oliver
Sweet, the night clerk at the OK
ford hotel of this city.
About twelve thirty, Sweet was
in the dining room of the hotel
eating his midnight lunch whsn q
rough looking stranger entered
the Office and asked for ths pro-
prietor. Upon receiving the in
formation that Mr. Tamisies, pro-
prietor of the esta blishment had
retired, the stranger remarked to
the effect that his business was
not of such Importance but that
the clerk could attend to It. As
Sweet arose from the table he no.
ticed the rough appearance of the
stranger and before leaving the
dining room, he left his pocket
book containing. about 6ftsaAfdol-
lars along with a gold watch un-
der table. As he entered the
offioe the bighwaymsn without.
farther parley pulled a revolver
and holding it in such manner
that Sweet could thoroughly in
spect theinterior 6nishings of the
weapon, requested the clerk to ele-
vate his hands. AS an affair Of
this kind is prolific of rapid
the obliging clerk immed.
iately acquiesced to the highway
mans demands, after which the
the robber made q thorough
search Of Sweets person, but ow-.
ing to the latter's fortunate fore
sight, secured nothing but q few
trinkets Of an insignificant value.

Terrific Explosion.

AVA = w A00HAO0A0As
This morning about 1870 a ter
rife explosion that caused dam
age to the extent of twenty-five
dollars occurred in the laundry
of the Miller hotel Of this city.
The exact cause of the accident
cannot be ascertained, but it ia
the supposition the explosion was
the result Of come defect in the
water pipes that furnished the
water supply for the heater. About
10 o'clock an attache Of the hotel
replenished the coal in the heater
and at that time there was the u.s.
ual supply of water in the tank,
but in a few minutes after the at-
tendant left the room the heater
exploded with a force that shook
the entire building. The interior
of the laundry Was wrecked by the
explosion. Heavy doors were
torn from their hinges and re-
duced to kindling wood. Every
pane OF glass on the east side of
the house was shattered, portions
of the glass being blown for dis
.tance of a hundred feet.
