MISS Louise G. CANNON.

MISS LOUISE G.. CANNON.
Like the soft, sweet voice OF the streamlet,
Like the breath OF the zephyr mild,
Came the call of the gentle Master
To our cherished-Our darling child.
''Come home from thy land of exile,
Tho short hath thy footsteps trod
It's treacherous. weary pathways,
es, come to thy rest--thy, God.
Enough hath thy young heart tasted
OF joys that but quickly fade
Come dwell in the light retulgent
Whose radience ne'er hath paIed.
Enough hath thy spirit languished,
In suffering no longer stay,
Thou hast tasted the bitter chalice,
But now it hath passed away" 4
So we gave up our darling loved one
Our treasure for fourteen years
But oh, with hat heartfelt anguish
What sorrow and bitter tearsi
And we tenderly laid our flower,
Al the foot OF Gods holy throne,
With the dew OF lites morn twas glist'ning
But heaven had claimed it's own.
A months mind requiem mass will be said
Saturday morning, at O'Clock, tor the repose
OF her soul.

ing belonging to Henry Gray and the
larceny of two hens. Corbett pleaded
not guilty and the case was continued
until February 14th bail being fixed at
$500. Bail was promptly furnished by
Mrs. Lydia \. Thurber Of Seekonk.
This is the beginning OF what will
probably be one OF the hardest fought
criminal battles in the history of this
district. some party stole hens from
farmer Gray on the night of the 2Oth,
and he was aroused from sleep by a
burglar alarm ringing in his hen roost.
He discovered several forms moving
away i'm the darkness and shot at them.
Two brothers named Morris. neighbors
of Gray. gave chase 20 the thieves and
claim 10 have tracked them 20 Corbetts s
house.
In the latters yard the Morris
brothers shot Corbett and friend
named Frank Strange, putting bullet
into the formers breast and filling the
latter full of birdshot Corbett asked
Judge Fox this morning for warrants
for the arrest of the Morris brothers.
The judge refused 10 grant the request
until he had heard the present case.
Corbett claims that he and Strange
were not out of the formers door yard
that night. Strange is receiving med
ical attendance I'm this city and is In
bad shape.

went into Mr.. Edmonds' saloon on
Orange street 10 buy "A glass of beer
before returning TO his home i'm Scltu-
ate and went TO n closet, the passage
way To which was unlighted. and fell
into an open trap-door. His Injuries
were, he says, of a very severe nature
and caused him To expend large sum
OF money for medical aid.
This is the second suit brought by
Mr.. Clemence for the same accident, he
loosing the other suit because IL was
not shown that he went into the saloon
on business. On cross examination to-
day Mr.. Clemence admitted that he
said nothing about buying a glass of
beer at the previous trial or of his at
tention to 40 do. and said he bought
the beer about 10 minutes after he fell
into the hole i'm the unlighted passage.
The defendant denies lack of care on
his part that would have prevented the
accident.
