Not Mrs. John A. Hauman.

On account of being wrongly
informed in regard to the death
of Mrs. Hauman, near Saluvia,
the NEWS last week was led into
writing up the obituary of the
wrong person, and 1t is one of
instances In which a person lives
to read her own obituary. In
stead of Its having been Mrs.
John A. Hauman, it was Marga
ret, wife of David Hauman, near
Saluvia, aged about 84 years.
She died Saturday night, Decem.
ber 3, 1910, and was buried at
Sldeling Hill Christian church,
the following Monday. Mrs.
Hauman was highly esteemed by
her neighbors, and was con-
sistent member of the Christian
church. Besides her husband,
she is survived by two daughters
Florence wife of Adam While,
living at Broadtop, and Mcs. Geo.
w. Strait, at Akersville.

Dogs Fooled Him.

Daniel Mellott, who lives near
Sipes Mill, was awakened a few
nights ago by the excited barking
of his dogs, Having visions of
smoke-house robbers or granary
thieves, he jumped out of bed,
and without gong to the trouble
of putting on his Sunday clothes,
he rushed down stairs, out
through the front door, and on In
the direction indicated by the
barking CANNES. After care
full examination of the premises
and finding everything all right,
he came to the conclusion that
the dogs had awakened from an
ugly dream and were barking at
random; so he went back to the
house.
Now, during Mr.. Mellott's ab-
sence from the house, a polecat
happened to be passing, and see.
ing the door open, and getting a
sniff of the warmth inside, walk
ed right In. The stair door being
open, the cats curiosity led 1t up
stairs. While the cat was up
stairs, Mr.. Mellott returned, and
while stopping by the fire to warm
before going back to bed, he was
surprised to see the cat come
down stairs. The cat was notNex
pectlng to see Mr.. Mellott, and
