Miss Abigail J. Simons.
HER DEATH OCCURS ON THURSDAY,
MARCH Is.

MARCH 10.
On Thursday, March Is, Abigail j.
Simons passed away, aged rs. For the
last 10 or IL years she was great suf-
ferer. A fall resulted in the breaking of
q limb which was not set and rheuma-
tism set In. During the last few years,
Abbie was afflicted at times with partial
deafness, the condition of her eyes also,
for some time, has forbidden reading.
Sorely aft cted death came to her bear
er OF release. She had resided In this
community since childhood. For years
she was nurse. A good many families
remember her competent services. Nat
urally very generous soul the children
liked her. She had many friends among
the children. In her day she was
good singer. During her affiiction she
cheered herself many times by hummin e
over favorite songs of former days.
Though Of late Abbie has been so far out
of the way that her friends could not
get to see her as they would have liked,
yet she was not forgotten. Each holiday
season she was the recipient of numer-
ous tokens Of friendship from friends
here and at distance. The funeral was
attended, Friday, March 16, by Rev f.
FL. Sawyer. pastor Of the Sandy Hook
Methodist church of which Abbie was q
member since 1852. The services were
held at the home OF Mrs Wunderlich
where she has been cared for the past
five years. The interment was at the
Sandy Hook cemetery.

One year ago George Wilkes had 759
descendants In the 2.15 list. During 1899
there was gain OF 189, or almost 25 per
cent, making. 958 in all. His number of
grandsons credited with 2.15 performers
Ia now no less than 191, showing what
progress the family ia making in the
younger generation and how they breed
on.
Spalpeen, IL 1-2, is one OF the fastest
snow horses in Buffalo.
TiEers says mile In 2 10 in the East is
as good as 0S in California.
Frank Work, the veteran New York
road rider, does not believe in clipping
horses, not even to trimming off their
foretops.
John Splsn is quoted as saying that
the automobile will supplant the horse
about the time the typewriter takes the
place of the piano.
At the late ,Fasjg-Tipton sale in New
York, John H. Shuts purchased Is head
for total $10,305. The well known
dealer, John Mcclure, bought 16 head
for $91S5.
All the talk about the automobile hurt-
ing the horse is senseless or what the
slang dealers would call "pure tommy
rot" says the American sportsman. The
market tells the story. No midnight
cocktail inspired editorial by machine
editor can make any horseman believe
for single moment that a man-made
machine will ever take the place Of ths
God-made horse, either as an instrument
of ofsYecreation or comfort. Five years ago
we read editorials In the same journals,
far more forceful that the horse WAS
passing on account Of the bicvcIe. The
bicycle 10 still here and it is still utility,
but as source of recreation it Ia dead
and damned, leaving in it's trail more

And all ethical experts agree that no

physical collapse. On no, the horse is
not passing. He rtil1 stands with head
erect and nostrils red with fire snortine
defiance TO all his enemies.
