RAISING REQUIRES DIVER.

Capt. J. A. Harphan, of Cincinnati, who has been experimenting the raising of the Harry Waltz at Elgin, in conversation with a reporter for the INDEPENDENT Monday morning said:
 : "We succeeded in turning the liar ry Waltz over on her bottom, from the position in which the boat sank, but could do nothing towards raising it, owing to the fact that the lower guard on which the boat lay had been broken producing leakage. Pumps were used but without effect, com polling us to give up the work tenn porarily.
 "A diver was telegraphed for from Louisville, an answer being received that he would arrive Monday, when with the needed apparatus, antici- pate no serious trouble in floating the Harry Waltz"

PRESBYTERIAN PICNIC.

The Sunday school of the Presby- terian church, together with many in vited guests, spent Thursday at the grove north of town, and that the day was spent delightfully."- does not ade- quately express the enjoyment of the occasion, is the consensus of opinion of those present.
 First of all was big basket dinner prepared by the ladies of the church, which afforded spread of dainties and good things that proved mex haustible, much as did the children try to go their limit. In the afternoon, a game of ball between the men and kids, resulting 29 to 26 in favor of the latter, furnished amusement for the spectators as we'll as fun for the en- gagged.
 The picnic certainly served it's pur- pose of bringing closer together the members of the Sunday school and in giving them day whose pleasures will hardly ever be surpassed.

BROW3J WOLF.

Brown Wolf, the son of A. J. and Mrs. P. Wolf, passed away Tuesday, June 18th, just as the clock was strik- ing the noon hour, at his home on Laurel street, surrounded by relatives and friends, who had with lingering hopes watched his bedside, offering him the attentions of devotion and love.
 On May 20th, the deceased was at tackled with typhoid fever, which soon proved to be extremely severe, producing hemorrhages of the bowels, from which the patient weakened gradually but surely. He was not conscious the morning of his death and in his enfeebled condition, his physician could find no hope nor offer any comforting assurances.
 The deceased lost his father April 9th, of this year, and left beside a mother, three sisters, Mrs. A. G. An derson, Misses Fannie and Lula Wolf, and one brother, Thomas J., who is in Hot Springs, to all of whom the sym pathy of the community is extended in their loss of a dear one.
 The funeral will be held at the Methodist church Wednesday after noon at 3:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. J. w. Smith, burial following at Walnut Grove cematerv
 The deceased was born December IS, 1879, having lived here all his life, where he had friends and admirers among all ages. With sunny disposi- ton, frank and sincere manner, honest character, strengthened by upright, manly living, it was no won der that friends should be his. It seems only strange that so rich a flower of promise should be hewn down, when the first powers of young manhood were bursting into bloom.

No agreement having been secured at 5:30, the jury offered to render ma jority verdict if agreed upon by the the attorneys.
 The defendant was called into court and after consultation with his attor- ney, the defense agreed to accept a verdict rendered by majority. Upon the reading of the same, "We the jury find the defendant not guilty" mur- mur of approval ran over the court room and the defendant was the re- cipient of hearty congratulations.
 This probably ends the Sunday clos ing agitation, so far as relates to the sale of necessities and articles that are essential to public convenience and comfort, as the heretofore general be- lief that no jury could be empanneled in this county which would convict in such an instance, has been substanti- ated by this trial. The old law, resus- citated from the tomb, has been ac- corded new grave.

STORE BURGLARIZED.
Secure $13.90 From the Cash Drawer While Proprietor Was Away
 for Supper.

The store of w. J. Lambkin at the corner of Beach and Third streets was burglarized on Saturday evening while the proprietor was at home for sup per. MT. Lambkin on the evening in question left the store at six o'clock, and there being no one to leave in charge, he locked the doors and be- took himself to his home on Hazel.
 When he returned hardly a half hour later, he found the doors of the store, both front and rear, wide open. On examination he discovered that the cash drawer had been rifled of $13.90. The key to the back door, MT. Lambkin says, was lost about ten days ago and he thinks the burglars gained entrance in this way, as no evidence of their forcing admission could be detected.
 Many people were no doubt passing at the time this burglary was being committed yeo there is no clue as to the identity of the guilty party or par ties.

LEAGUE LAWN SOCIAL.

The social given by the children of the Juvenile League of the Methodist church at the home of MT. and Mrs. J. H. McHugh on Hazel St., Thursday evening was a decided success, both in the pleasure afforded those present and in the dollars and cents realized.
 With a string band discoursing sweet music and hundred Japanese lanterns lighting the well kept lawn, about which were scattered benches, hammocks and tables, the scene was most enchanting one, while the merry crowd in attendance made the air ring with laughter and animated conversation.
 Probably 300 people attended the social, the refreshments of ices and cake being very daintily served by the young Misses, assisted by several ladies of the church. Mir. and Mrs. McHugh entered into the spirit of the occasion and their genial hospitality contributed much to the perfect suc- cess of the social.
 Twenty eight dollars and ninety five cents represents the net proceeds of the evening, refreshments being serv- ed from to 10 o'clock.

OLD RAILS REPLACED.

The heavy steel rails that are taking the place of the old light weight ones on the Brinkley branch of the Choc- taw, have been scattered to within three miles of this city, which will be reached in the course of few days.
 A force of employees is now at work this side of Tupelo, replacing the light track with the new rails. More workmen are needed and the men in charge have tried hard to secure, them but $1.5O day, the wages paid, does not appear to be sufficient induce ment.
 It is expected that by Aug. 1st, this work will have been completed, a good road bed established and quicker service secured upon the Brinkley branch of the Choctaw.

DANCE AT PAVILION.

Tuesday evening has become a time in which is centered much merriment and pleasure for the young people of Newport, by reason of the weekly dance held upon that night at the ten his club pavilion. Nor is it enjoyed alone by the unmarried, as many hus- bands and their wives are equally in- terested in this event and as regular attendants.

 At Auvergne, Dr. Clements fine orchard was badly twisted and al most ruined; the wind which was very strong had the rotary motion of a cyclone.
 On the Island, the gale blew down fences and trees and damaged the crops in many fields.

Few alterations have had to be made
in the woodwork and fittings, and this
has accelerated the work of installa-

Mr. Byrne towards securing wood that
would be in perfect harmony with the
fine lighting facilities of the store. The
oak canopies extend only half way up
the display windows, leaving the upper
part open and free to admit daylight,
which is a feature new to stores in
Honolulu.
The ends of the canopies are con-
cealed from the streets by sign work

attractiveness of the furnishings. Ey-

DIR. Fulton said that he was

not anticiDate any trouble in the
future.
The Doctor is still waiting to

State of Maryland would be COM
PEELED to quarantine against Sus-

ing under the orders of the Del

The officials of Sussex county
are doing all in their power to

antine against Sussex county
when it learns what is being done
to stamp out the epidemic.
