A Sad Death.

Little James Kinnaird, who was so
badly burned on last Thursday, mention
of which was made in the last weeks
issue of the Record, died as result of
his injuries at O'Clock Thursday after
noon. The little fellow was standing
before a CRATE fire dressing himself
when his clothes became ignited and
before help could reach him he had sus-
tanned injuries which proved fatal.
James death was one of the saddest
which has ever occurred in Lancaster.
He was familiar figure, distinct from
other children because he knew every
?ody, and all had kind word for him.
He was an unusually bright child, ever
ready with quick answer for every
one, yet unlike many children who are
accustomed to being petted and leased
by the people about town, he was un-
usually polite and respectful.
His remains were laid at rest in the
Lancaster cemetery on Friday after
noon at o'clock. The Graded School
was dismissed to allow his little friends
and playmates to attend his burial.
The sympathy of the entire communi-
ty goes out to DR.. and Mrs. Kinnaird in
their great Der avement.

The @. & c. Strike.

The strike situated on the @. & c.
railroad is practically the same as it
was last week. The firemen claim they
about have their cause won, and the
railroad company deny this, and on
the other hand assert that business is
fast resuming its normal condition.
They are again receiving freight for
points as far south as Somerset and
for Cincinnati and~-au paints north.
However the fact freight service south
is still considerably deranged, and
whether or not the strike is amicably,
or otherwise settled, in the near future
it will take some time to get this class
of business back to its normal stage.
There is no violence along the line of
road, and the reports that have here
tofore gone out in this regard were
very much exaggerated.
