Tuesday morning about six
o clock a party of pretty and
winSOme schOolmarms were seen
vending their way out towards
the point" They were accom-
panied by an equal number Of
LeXingtOn's most eligible old
bachelors who, perchance had
not seen the sun rise before this
summer. A few appeared
to be walking hand in hand, un-
mindful of the curious gaze of
some of the early birds on Hun
CRY hill, while others more in,
tent on reaching their destination
where they were to breakfast
strolled rapidly along; one
couple less romatic was driv-
ing, but as it seemed the
horse needed no guiding. The
breakfast, no doubt, served on
the bluff overlooking the bis
muddy, was a success, and every
one enjoyed it to the uttermost.

Killed by Falling Lumber.

Sunday morning about three
O'Clock Mr.. and MRS. George
Wittenburg were aroused by
screams of someone in mortal
agony. Mr.. Wittenburg made
a haSty toilet and started out to
locate, if possible, the injured
party while Mrs. Wittenburg
summoned officer Gaffin. The
two made hasty search about Jno.
C. Young's livery barn on
Franklin avenue and finally
discerned a pile of lumber that
had been recently disturbed. On
looking under the lumber that
had fallen over they. discovered a
mans feet. After considerable
trouble andNwork they succeeded
in eXtricating the body Of a man
from which life had been extinct
only a few minutes. On exam
ing the body closely the name
"T. Burns" was found stamped
on some of his linen. Further
investigation reveals but little
of the man. lie had been work
ing for Mr.. IIulver south of
town and had come to the city
Saturday morning. He had
had some money but that was
gone. He had probably chosen
the lumber pile for a few hours
sleep with the result mentioned
above. The body was taken to
the Winkler Undertaking Par
lors and buried from there Mon
day evening.
