OBITUARY
SAMUEL R0THwELL BIGGs

Mr.. Samuel Rothwell Biggs died at the
home of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Biggs on Cass street in this town, at 7.50
o'clock, Thursday evening in the 50th
year of his age.
The news of his death was great shock
to his numerous friends here and in the
west, where he spent several years of his
useful life.
Deceased was born near Cecilton, Nd,
and attended Hackettstown, NJ j.,
School, and also graduated from the
School of Oratorv in Philadelphia,
and previous to his illness gave pro-
mise of making an able orator. Mr.. Biggs
was a 32d degree Mason, and in politics
a Democrat.
He was civil engineer, and had held
important positions in Leaville, COL,
New Mexico, Kansas, and other places,
and when his health failed in 1897, his
relatives and friends hoped he would
soon recover, but in few months he lost
his eyesight, and all hopes of a useful
career were suddenly endended.
He had been great sufferer for many
years, yet the bright faith which sus-
tanned him during those trying hours,
only grew brighter as the long months
and years passed by. Could we all live
the just and upright life Samuel R. Biggs
lived, and die in his trusting faith, death
would bring a balm to the wounded
heart. 1t may truly be said that his life
was a noble example of patience and
fidelity, He was a model of mental in
dustry, and an honorable gentleman in
the highest sense that term implies, and
always extended cordial greeting that
lent ray Of light to brighten the path
way of his fellowmen in the journey of
life. Besides his parents be leaves one
sister to mourn his death, and every
heart was touched with sympathy for
the stricken ones, yet, He who "has
borne our griefs and sorrows" will COM
fort and sustain.
Funeral services will be held at the
residence of bis parents at two O'Clock
Monday afternoon, and the interment
will be made in Forest Cemetery.

COLLAPSE OF BRIDGE

The first river span on the Cecil side OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad bridge
across the Susquehanna, near French
town, Cecil County, Nd, collapsed We'd
nesday morning at 6. As o'clock under an
eastbound freight train, precipitating six
loaded coal cars into the river. No one
was killed, and the only man hurt was
Bridge Watchman Wilson, of Havre de
Grace, who had leg broken.
How the accident occurred is as yet un-
explained. For several days the work.
men had been engaged in erecting the
falsework under that span of the bridge,
preparatory to the erection OF the double
track structure. The supposition is that
some part of this temporary construction
was faulty, and gave way under the pass
ing train The locomotive crossed safely
and was left standing on the east side of
the bridge, and number of cars on the
west side. The falling bridge made an
awful crash, and the river was filed with
floating timber. =
The accident occurred quarter of an
hour before the men were to begin the
days work on the bridge. Had it hap
pened that much later the loss of life
would have been appalling.
The span that fell was 285 feet long, the
iron work and all going down in the
crash. To temporarily bridge the gap
will require several weeks, and in the
meantime the B. & O. trains will use the
P, B. & W. tracks between Wilmington
and Aberdeen.

A GREAT SUCCESS

We would like to call your attention to
the fact thai our Spring and Summer
Millinery season surpassed all our ex-
pectations and has been a great success
by selling every hat we bad in our store.
Our motto is mot to carry any goods
over from one season to another" After
our Spring and Summer Millinery success
we find through the large patronage We
received that the people of this town and
vicinity are realizing the fact that we
have fulfilled all the promises We made
in our last Springs announcement, that
you can get in this store an up-to-date
hat for reasonable price.
We are prepared this Fall and Winter
season to give you better service than
ever before. We just remodeled our
show room and added private show
room, which makes the most up, to.date
and prettiest Millinery department south
of Wilmington.
By having Miss Ruth E. Culp an expert
Milliner and Trimmer, and purchasing a
large stock of up.to-date goods, we will be
in better condition than ever to serve
our patrons. Another feature this Fall
is the purchase we made from large
New York Importer of few up-to-date
Imported Models from some of the world
famous Paris Milliners, which will be
displayed in our show rooms at our
opening, the date of which will be an
nounced in next weeks paper.
Thanking you for past and future pa
tronage,
Yours respectfully,
A. FoGEL.

to the church at large. Many notable

DR.. Kinsman is now in Maine. He will

copal leaders here, worthy successor of
