A SAD CASE.
grave

From Berwick comes the follow
ing sad case. Mrs. David Herring
who with her husband and two sons
resided a short distance below the
old Berwick fair ground, died on
Monday. The circumstances sur
rounding her death are most pa
thetic. Mr.. Herring was employed
at the Rolling mill. His wages
were sufficient to support his wife
and family comfortably, but mis-
fortune came, his wife took sick,
and in order to take care of her he
was compelled to stop work. He
was in great need of help, but hav'
ing only recently moved there from
Mainville, and the neighbors being
almost strangers to him, he did not
make his condition known. Their
his wife gave birth to a child. The
little one, however, died. With
nothing in the house to eat, the
poor woman grew weaker ano
weaker. Their situation was dis
covered on Saturday, but it was too
late. Tender nursing was OF M
avail, and on Monday she died. Sh'
was thirty-three years of age.

A False Report.

Ut was reported on the street
Monday evening that Jay Brown,
formerly of Lightstreet, but later OF
Bloomsbury now living in Denver,
Colorado had committed suicide.
We investigated the rumor and
learned that it was false. 1t appears
that paper published in the west,
a copy of which reached Blooms
burg contained report of suicide
of a young man by the name Of Jay
Brown. He had suffered and battled
for several years against the EN-
croachment of desease until finally
becoming disheartened, in a moment
of dependency ended his days with
revolver. This paper was re-
sponsible for the report. In con
nection with this, we are pleased te
say that Jay Brown, who has 81
many friends hereabouts is living il
Denver, Colorado and that hi
health is steadily improving.

chinery broke down for lack of a quorum.
Tuesday. January 6. the senate listened
to two spirited speeches, Senator Hoar
(Mass.) on his bill regulating trusts and
an attack by Senator Vest (Mo.) on pro-
tected industries through the operation
Of the Dingley law. Senator Hoar said
that nearly all thoughtful men in the
country were agreed that some leglsla-
ton ought to be had for the regulation
and control of trusts. Senator Vest, In
a most able speech, told Of the coal
shortage crisis and scored republican
members for their silence in the mat
ter. :. The bill for the creation of a gen.
eral staff for the army passed the house,
as also bill to increase the pensions of
soldiers totally deaf from $50 to $40 per
