BROWNS WHILE SKATING.
ARTHUR MILLER MEETS WITH LAMENT.
ABLE FATE.
While Skating on River Above Tavener's
Dam Yesterday Afternoon Breaks
Through the Thin Ice and
is Drowned.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. l.. J.
Miller of West DEBORAH is filled with
deepest gloom and sadness over the
lamentable fate which befell their
second son Arthur, aged about twelve
years, yesterday afternoon about 80
O'Clock.
Late in the afternoon three boys,
Arthur Miller and his younger bro
ther and the Giles boy went to the
river above Tavener's dam to skate.
The ice was thin, but the boys were
anxious to enjoy the skating as early
as possible and decided to chance it.
They had not been skating long before
Arthur Miller broke through the ice
at a place where the water was quite
deep, and was soon struggling to get
out. His smaller brother and the
Giles boy made every possible effort
to get him out, reaching skinny"
club to him, but were both pulled
into the water, only escaping them
selves with difficulty. and when they
saw that he had sunk for the last
time, ran and told Mr.. Tavener, who
with the ASST stance of those who had
gathered in t he meantime, succeeded
in recovering the body. He was
taken home and Drs. Stabo and
Jewell were called, and although
they worked over him for several
hours the spark of life had gone out
and he could not be resuscitated.
The sympathies of the entire city
are extended to Mr. and Mrs. Miller
in their sad bereavement.
