Embry.

Guy Yantis Embry, the II year old
son and only child of Mr.. and Mrs.
Will S. Embry died at the home of his
parents on the Fall Lick pike on last
Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock of
Laryngeal Diptheria, or what is COM
monty known as Membraneous Group.
The little fellow was at school on last
Thursday, apparently in the best of
health, and he was in the throes of the
dreadful disease only two days when
death came to his relief. All that was
possible was done, local physicians
were supplemented by the presence of
DR.. Mcclure of Lexington who as a
last resort performed an operation,
but it was unavailing.
Guy was an unusually bright and
cheerful boy, popular alike with teach
ers and pharmacies, and was the idol of
the home, and the grief of the distress
ed parents is pathetic.
Bro. finder who was summoned
from Somerset conducted short SER
vices at the grave on Monday morning
at 1890 o'clock, after which all that
was mortal of the manly little fellow
was placed at rest in the Lancaster
cemetery.

Texas and one from Mississippi, who
have been overwhelmed by applicants
for a slice of the pie, have suggested
that applicants for federal offices, such
as Collector and Marshalships. post
offices etc, settle their respective
claims by means of a primary election.
A great many of the applicants
throughout the country are old cam
paigners themselves, and they know
the trouble and expense of this manner
of securing office, and they therefore
do not take kindly to it. They prefer
that the congressman shoulder the
burden of selecting who shall fill the
offices. The congressman however,
are far seeing in the matter, for they
realize that they are between the
devil and the deep blue sea, and if
they gladden. one constituent by select
ing him for Office they also ruffle the
temper of fifty more or less, hence the
primary suggestion.

Gov. Wilson has announced his in
tention of calling an extraordinary
session of Congress soon after his in
auguration for the purpose of giving
attention to the proposed downward
revision of the tariff. The session will
probably be called for April. He had
not intended voicing his sentiments in
regard to an extra session until after
his recuperative trip to the Bermudas,
but the clamor seemed to be so great
and there seemed to be such a demand
for his intentions IN the matter, that
after finding the great majority of the
members of both houses were inclined
toward it, he finally consented to give
lis views on the subject.

Marksbury.

Much sympathy is extended to Mr..
and Mrs. Frank B. Marksburv in the
loss of their infant daughter. The
bright little creature which bid so fair
to gladden. the home of its parents was
born at 7:3O o'clock Sunday afternoon
and was christened Margaret Lee; it
did not long survive it's christening, for
within few minutes after its birth the
God who gave it recalled it. The
earthly remains of the little blossom
that bloomed so short period on this
earth were, after short services at the
grave by Rev. finder on Monday
afternoon laid to rest in the Lancaster
cemetery.
The Lord giveth, and the Lord hath
taken away, Blessed be the name of the
