Coroner ]. W.. Schultze has received
letter from Mrs Berberich. of Allie
gheny, Pa, asking him to kindly look
over the records, to ascertain if pos
sible, if he has on that roll man OF
the name of Moriz Miller, who was
killed or murdered some time near
1870. In conclusion the communica-
ton states that it may be little
trouble but it may pay the coroner in
the end. Coroner Schultze is unable
to comply with the request for the
reason that record of such cases was
kept by some justice of the peace act
ing as coroner previous to his election
to the Office in 1881.

Useful Life.
In the death Of Mrs. Mary Fleming.
Wheeling has lost another Of its oldest
residents. Mrs. Fleming was born in
Belfast, County Antrim. Ireland. al
most so years ago. After her mar
riage to Robert A. Fleming, they re-
moved to Lanart, Scotland, and from
there to this country in 1851. With
their family they settled In the Second
ward of this city. where she has since
constantly resided. Mr.. Fleming in
1857. while returning home from a
southern trip, was accidentally drown
ed from the river steamer Courier.
At her husbands death Mrs. Fleming
was left with seven children, and
shortly afterward an eighth one was
born.
With this large family, she at once
started to make provision for their
maintenance by acting as tailoress.
Each of the girls were taught to sew
as they grew old enough, and all act
ing in unity with their mothers gull
ance, became experts. Mrs. Fleming
upon her arrival became member of
the U. P. Church, to which she has
steadfastly adhered, and brought her
family up within it's pale. OF the chill
dren left to mourn her loss, five still
reside within the Second ward. Mrs.
Agnes McAdaIns, Mrs. Mary Morrison,
Mrs. G. F. Painter, James aud Rob-
ert Fleming. Andrew. another son,
for some years has been a resident
of New Brighton, Pa. Matthew Elem
ing and Mrs Rachael McGivern, a son
and daughter within the last seven
years have been buried from the Sec
ond ward, in which they were reared.
In Mrs. Fleming's demise the U. P.
Church has lost one of its most ardent
and steadfast members, she being al
most so years acting in that capacity;
ana has also left a void among her
large circle OF relatives and acqnaint-
ances, who will ever remember her as
an affectionate mother. consistent
Christian and an everything helper
in the cause of Christian charity. That
she has laid aside her earthly burdens
to be rewarded among Gods chosen
is the prayer of those who are left 70
mourn her loss.

form German firms asking quotations
on Pittsburg gas coal. The letters
state that it is desired to make con-
tracts for a number of years, II terms

terms made, the Pittsburg Coal Com
