er was an orphan girl, and, judg-
ing from neatness, arrangement,
and the general tone of the let
ter, she is a lady of refinement
and culture. She is a daughter
by birth and residence of North
Carolina. A little over a year
ago a relative with whom she

she undoubtedly contracted while
nursing her relative.

She has not the dollar a das,
which it is necessary for her t!

tuberculosis.

Walter W. Warren will leave this
week for Brownood. Texas, to look
after the effects and estate Of his
brother. A. T. Warren. who was blown
to death in the premature explosion of
dynamite in a railroad cut when he was

opinion that he was blown to fragments
too minute and too widely scattered to
be recovered.
Mr.. Warren. Of this place. has been
in constant correspondence with the Of

and have been searching for his broth
er's body. They are convinced that il
will be impossible to ever discover any
trace Of the Inflated mans body, and

staged and capably rendered. The first
was a beautiful musical fantasy, with
pretty scenic effects and sweet songs,
and a number of the young performers
showed unusual talent. All were ex
cellently drilled in their parts and their
teachers were highly commended for
their work.
The 'Peppery Pa" was a screaming

fire ladies fought like Trojans and in
less time than it takes to tell it the fire
was extinguished. Lizzie had $500 in :
surance on the the house, $500 on the
furniture and 800 on the barn, all in
the Glenns Falls Co.. represented by
that hustling firm, Fish & Pennington.
No damage was done the barn, but the
loss on the house exceeds the insurance
and that on the furniture equals it. She
has done much work with needle in or

severely mashed his thumb. The ori J.
