Mrs. A. M. CackIey.

Mrs. Annie Cackley, wife of Rev. DR..
A. NJ Cackley pastor Of Grace NJ. E
Church South at Middletown, Va, died
i'll a hospital in Washington City on Sat
urday morning last. A private letter
conveying to us the sad intelligence
states that Mrs. Cackley, who has been
more or less an invalid for number Of
years, was taken TO the hospital for
treatment last Thursday, and her death
was unexpected notwithstanding her i'll
ness. She had sinking spell at 6;So a.
m. Saturday, but afternoon seemed in
fair condition. and was talking sweetly
to her husband up 10 within ten minutes
nation and IN ten minutes was at rest.
Her remains were taken to Falls Church,
Va, on Saturday afternoon, and on yes
terday were inferred at that place.
Rev. DR.. Cackley was former pastor
of Jefferson Circuit, and his many friends
here, by whom he was highly esteemed,
are gTeally SnOCkeu at HIS SuuuGu anu
great bereavement and have much SYM
patty for him. The Winchester Star of
Saturday says:
The intelli gence of Mrs. Cackley's
death came as a great shock to the people
of Middletown this afternoon, and much
sorrow was expressed that this estimable
woman was no more. Owing not only
to the high place which. DR. CackleY held
IN the affection of the Middletown people
as pastor, was Mrs. Cackley greatly adj
mred. but also on account Of her many
womanly virtues, which endeared her to
all with whom she came in contact.
Mrs. Cackley was native of Peters
burg, Grant county, w. Va, and was
about As years of age. The couple have
no children. Mrs. Cackley has resided
in Middletown since her husband became

UNION REPUBLICANS MAY TAKE EMBLEM.
Union Republicans Propose TO Legally Become
the Republican Party of Delaware.

The Union Republicans of Della
ware intend to make an active cam
palgn next year, says correspondent
of the Every EUening. A promin-
ent Union Republican of Dover, in
high official position, made remark:
''In two months time the Union Re-
publicans will hold State Convention
for the purpose of formulating plans
for the campaign and one of the main
objects of that convention will be to
take the name of the Republican party
Of Delaware, instead of the Union Re
publican party, and that they intend
to adopt the emblem of the eagle. the
emblem as now used by the Regular
Republicans. He further remarked,
"the Unions would only be doing what
was done to them in 1896, when the
Regulars bolted from the convention
and stole the emblem and name. The
Unions now have the clerk of the
peace of three counties, and there was
practically no hindrance in the way for
the Unions to take whatever they
wanted.

AN EARLY MORNING FIRE ALARM.
Residence of John F. GOIdsbOrOugh on North
Maid Street Caught Fire Early Saturday
Morning and Building Damaged.

What might have been a disastrous
fire broke out in the residence of Mr..
John F. GoldsbOrough on North Main
Street early Saturday morning, and by
prompt action on the part of the mem
bers of the household, and the Fire
Company, the building was saved.
The residence is occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. John F. Goldsborough and their
son, Mr.. and Mrs. Bingham Colds
borough. They retired at the accus-
toned time Friday night leaving every
thing in apparently proper shape. Mr..
John F. Goldsborough had been sick
under doctors care. About 200 O, clock
in the morning the latter was awakened
by suffocating smoke, and gave the
alarm. The chimney place of the sit
ing room was found to be on fire, and
had caught to the woodwork of the
cubbards on each side of the chimney
and had worked in between the
weather r-boarding. The situation was
most precariOus; in few minutes the
whole house would have been in flames.
Mr.. Bingham GOldsborough ran down
to the Town Hall in his stocking feet,
coatless and hatless to give the general
alarm, while the members of the family
assisted by Mr.. Klementzer fought with
buckets. Soon after the Fire Com
paDy appeared upon the scene of
action, the flames were extinguished.
Most of the household goods on which
there was no insurance, were gotten
out. The building is owned by Tschudy
and Cats. The loss to the Messrs.
Goldsborough is about $50, and the
loss on the building about the same.
