Suicide of GiIpin Reynolds.

Gilpin Reynolds, of Fulton town
ship, Lancaster county, arose early
Sunday morning and committed
suicide by shooting himself with a
gun. His body was found in the
woods near his home.
6The superstition is that after Mr..
Reynolds had entered the woods he
cut a liked stick, rested the butt
of the gun on the ground and hold
ing the muzzle of the barrels close
to his head pressed the triggers
with the stick. The loads tore off
the back of his head.
Mr.. Reynolds had been super
visor of Fulton township for several
years and it is thought by some
that he was worried over the case
which will come up in court soon
in which the township will appear
as the defendant. 1t will be based
on the drowning of Miss Margaret
Begley in Conowingo creek on Aug.
25, 1898, near Wakefield, the town
ship bridge over the creek having
been swept away by the high water
following the storm of the previous
day.
The deceased was son of Vim.
cent Reynolds of Fremont, and a
brother of w. Preston Reynolds of
this place. He was 40 years of
age, and leaves wife and one
daughter.

Discovered by a Woman.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by lady in
this country. "Disease fastened
its clutches upon her and for seven
years she withstood its severest
tests, but her vital orgrns were
undermined and death seemed i'm,
minent. For three months she
cOughed necessarily, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a
way to recovery, by purchasing OF
us a bottle of DIR. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, and was SO
much relieved on taking first dose,
that she slept all night; and with
two bottles, has been absolutely
cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eusta,
chan Tube. When this tube gets infam-
med you have rumbling sound or iu,
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tuble restored to its normal condi.
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Huudsed Dollars fol
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Cecil Paper fills Assign for the Bene-
fit of Creditors.

James B. Ramsey & Son, owners
of the Cecil Paper Mills, four miles
from Rising Sun, have made an
assignment to Chares F. Van Horn,
of Philadelphia, for the benefit of
their creditors. The deed of assign
ment conveys the property of the
Cecil paper mills, including build
ings, machinery, stock, together
with 6S acres of land and some real
estate in Philadelphia. The prop
erty named is assessed at about
800, 900. The assets and liabilities
are not definitely known, but it is
thought the creditors will be paid
in full. The plant was closed down
Thursday of last week.
This failure is likely to prove a
serious public loss to this county
and neighborhood, for in all prob
ability the mill will not resume
business, it being four miles from
the railroad and requiring an ex-
pensive team to haul to and from
the station. All such failures in
volve the throwing out of work a
number of hands and loss of tax
able property.
Attachments for nearly $500
have been issued by the Circuit
Court for Cecil county agaist the
property.

Found Dead-UnknOwn.

Another unknown man was
found dead last Friday morning
along the railroad tracks at Iron
Hill. He evidently belonged to a
respectable class of people, and not
of the native tramp fraternity.
Nothing but a pair of dark glasses
and one-half of a ticket to a relig-
ious meeting was found on his
person. On his right arm was
tattooed the words an. Sweeney"
On his left arm was a picture of a
tombstone with the following words,
"ln memory of my sister, 1871"
1t is supposed he fell or was
thrown of, a freight train by other
tramps of the tough order.
