Isaac Coy, Dead.

On Friday evening July IA, the
community was shocked and sur
prised at the announcement of the
death of Mr.. Isaac Coy, resident
in the lower portion of the town.
Mr.. Coy was injured some time ago
in his work, but no serious results
were feared up to the day before
his death. AT 3 o'clock Friday
morning be became suddenly very
much worse, and when q physician
was summoned, it was found that
he could not live long; and about
half past six in the even ing the
grim reaper added another to his
roll of vanquished. Mr.. Coy leaves
wife and one son, John, both
highly esteemed and respected in
the neighborhood, whose sym
pathies are extended to them in
their bereavement. The funeral
services were held at the Presby,
terian church on Sunday afternoon
Rev. DR.. Steward officiating, and
remains were inferred in Oab
Grove Cemetery.

SIDE REMARK

Visitors are easily distinguished
from campers by the fact that all
campers wear on their hats royal
titles ranging from Gar and
Czarina down.
Sam Brooke brought his hospital
effects down and has been doing
the deeds of hero.
Not the least feature of the day s
doings is the Countess Jessica on
the merry-go-round.
The mandolin music for camp is
furnished by Rob Wright who plays
and Nellie McManigal who thinks
she does.
The camp suffered a great loss
and two of It's members great dis

rington and Rob Wright We're
caused to withdraw to their homes
because of too great proximity to
the deadly volatile oil of the poison
ivy. Since their departure acetate
of lead is put in the finger bowl at
every meal.
Miss Ada Rochester, our indulg-
ent chaperone is deserving of the

"Kissed."

1t is alledged by a most intimate
friend of Mr.. John Wellman, junior
member of the firm of Wellman,
Thurness g. Co. that the popular
young merchant was the first un-
fortunate victim of the affection of
the famous "Kissing bug" in Logan,
That as he was seated comfortably
infront the famous Remple Hos
telry he was struck forcefully by
huge insect that left severe pain
on his face. The immediate SEN
satiCn not being of long duration,
Mr.. Wellman near forgot the in
stance, until approached by his
friends Messrs Harry Rose and
Walt Rochester, who were startled
by the inhumau proportions of his
face. They escorted him to the
toilet room of the hostelry and the
poor fellow was truly frightened at
his awful appearance. His face
was swollen almost beyond re-
cognition. Mr.. Wellman became
very i'll and was assisted by his
companions to the Office of DIR. d.
A. RannellS who rendered relief to
the suffering patient, Az this writ
ing the young man is getting along
nicely and resumed his duties at
the store, and has an unpleasant
recollection of having been visited
by the "real thing" Mr.. Wellman
says his remembrance of the ap-
pearance of the bug as ii flew away,
conforms with the scientific de-
scription that he has read.

Jolly Campers
Visit State Institution and Get "Writ

A bevy of handsome young ladies
from Logan, in camp at Crystal
Springs, formed Jolly shay
wagon" party to the institution
Wednesday evening. AT their ar
rival they captured "ye editor" and
compelled us 10 "do the handsome"

HAY WAGON PARTY.
This was red letter afternoon and
evening in Camp chronicles, and Mr..
Brannan scarcely flatters when he
calls us handsome, for we were eff
fectively costumed that day. Our
camp skirts, fashioned on the rainy
day pattern, were of V vlried hues and
lengths, but our feet never varied,
they all seemed one size and that
was large when this shirt waist,
sailor hat brigade gracefully stepped
from the hay non-automobile and
dihidently struck brick in front OF
the old administration building, the
officers sitting on the veranda seem
ed trifle startled, With the wisps OF
hay that clung like the vine to the
"mouldering wall, +" we resembled q
Fifth Avenue Bradley Martin set
and to have a swagger crew like thit
drop in for an evening was enough
to embarass the Czar--our one pie
had already been economically sur
veyed into six pieces. Even Mr.
Brannan was for a moment unabl,
to spot us, and if he had, poor man
he might have escaped down bacl
alley before we spotted him. HI
was extremely gallant and courteous
and offered himself as an escort t,

to get in and out safely. We soon
scattered over the grounds, but the
tact and charming courtesy of q
sweet little woman, brought us to-
gether again, as Will Strentz, our
sedate chaperone, came as messenger
with rpdiant face to tell us that Mrs.
Grove had invited us to luncheon.
She has imbibed some of Mr.. Groves
love for Haw-Eaters ana graciously
took us, every one, when we must
have looked ind efinite, immeasur-
able hunger. Mr.. Grove and good
wife took us to their cottage where
we were made SO welcome and were
so impressed with the winning per-
sonality of our hostess that we
simply longed to be able to commit
some misdemeanor which would en-
title us to number in her cottage.
The two men who went with us,
Frank Lind and VIII Strentz are
simply splendid boys of course, but
we tried to fancy how good they

full training here. An excellent lunch
was served us picnic style on the
lawn, and in serving Mrs, Grove was
assisted by Mrs Roberts. We start
ed back to camp in the cleaning,
taking Mrs. Roberts and Mrs. Grove
as far as the gates of the Farm
grounds, and if only Mrs. Grove
knew, how many scalps she wears on
her belt, she would certainly be
proud. 1t was merry trip and Mr..
Brannan has our acid test thanks for
his patience and courtesy and the
compliment he paid us in his inter-
esting Journal, but Mrs. Grove and
Mrs. Roberts have our love, for after
all the way to any heart is through
the stomach. Then last with the ar
rival in camp at eight-thirty came
three cheers for Billie Strentz be-
cause the ride was his treat to the
campers and if Mrs. Grove had not
taken our scalps, we would have
poured out the libations of our hearts
at Wills feet.

p. Newman of the Methodist Episcopal
church, an intimate friend OF the late
Presidenu Grant, died at $50 D. M, to-
day, at this place. Bishop Newman had
been falling In health for year past but
It was only week ago that his condition
really alarmed bis friends. Since July 8
he had been sinking rapidly and this
morning his physicians announced that
in all probability he would not survive
the day. The Immediate cause of the
death Of Bishop Newman was pneumonia
and myelitis. At two O'Clock this after
noon his pulse was hardly pereeptible,

that the end was near. Relatives and i'm
mediate friends were summoned to the
bedside Of the dying man. The Bishop
became conscious shortly before his death
and recognized his wife, who was pros
tratsd ct his bedside. Mrs. u. S. Grant,
Mrs. II. ID. Grant and others arrived
at the scene q moment or so later. Mrs
Newman is almost crushed by her deep
bereavement. Inasmuoh as she is in
comparatively feeble health 1t is feared
that she will not long survive her hus-
band. kilograms and cablesrams are
being received from all quarters tonight
expressing sympathy and condolence. A
despatch from Bishop Randolph 5. Eos
ter at Roxb bury, Mass, announces that he
will reach Saratoga tomorrow morning
and complete arrangements for the fune-
raj which will be made after his arrival.

Score Success.
Immunity Of Private Property at Sea

A Special Conference
For Purpose.
Mr.. White Ably Presents Amer
lean Side of the Case.

The Hague, July 5.-Ths American
delegates scored great success today In
obtaining fromthe peace conference q
unanimous vote In favor of having the
question of private property at sea In
time OF war dealt with at special con.
ference to be summoned hereafter.
Much diplomatic management was
necessary andImany obstacles had to be
surmounted before this result wai
reached.
The second committee met this morn
ing and Mr.. Andrew d. White. head of
she American delegation, preached the
subject The question of it's admissible
ity under the conference mandate was
discussed. No vote was taken but an
agreement was arrived at TO allow the
Americans to present their case in full
this afternoon. Had vots been taken
the Americans wonld doubt
less have carried their point by MAJORS
ty OF one or two, and to avoid this a res
olution was proposed recognizing the i'm
portance and compleSity of the question
and recommending the summoning of a
special conference. At the afternoon sit.
ting of the oolnmittee-the successive
clauses Of the laws Of war having bsen
adopted-M. De Martens of the Russian
delega ton, iHovsd a resolution to that
effect. MIR. White seconded. In the
course of clear and eloquent statement
of the American case he said the United
States government had accepted the invi-
tation to participate in the conferences
with alacrity because Of the opportunity
1t was expected the conference would
afford for preaching the true faith regard
Ing the immunity from capture of private
at sea. He admitted. however,
that the United States government recog-
nized 1t would be hopeless to expect any
decisive result from this conference.
