In contrast to all the above he INDUCES

who has been visiting her sister, Mrs.
j. Fred McLure, left for her home on
Monday last. Miss Bailey is an at
tractive and accomplished young
lady and made quite host of friends
during her stay here. Her many ad-
mirers regret very much her depart

visit with great pleasure.
The report was circulated upon the
streets Wednesday morning that
Mrs. Mary Rice, wife Of Col. 8. M.
Rice was dead. It was found upon
investigation however, that while Che
good lady was very low, and there
was at one time during the morning
that she apparently ceased to breath.
She finally rallied though she Is still
in a critical condition. It will be re-
membered that she received a stroke
Of paralysis last year from which she
has never recovered. At her advanced
age her recovery will no doubt be
slow II at all. We hope for her recoy-
cry and that she may spend many
more years.
