We connot say, but will say this much, and risk it whoever he, or she may be, they will follow one of the best teachers we have had for some time, and we are glad to say she has got the Olive school for the coming fall and spring term which makes her third therm there.

Little Harry looking up, the ball penetrated the skull about two inches above the right eye, and ranged backward. The mother hear- ing the report ran out to where the children were, and when near,strange to say, little Harry who was sitting on the ground, jumped up and took two or three steps toward his moth- er, crying, “O, mamma! O, mamma!” | Drs. Kinyoun, Rucker and McGirk were called in and made a _ hasty ex- amination and dressed the wound, after which he was moved to the res- idence of W. R. Delaney. He con- tinued to remain conscious and seemed to rather improve until Sun day evening, when the attending physicians decided that he might be moved home. After being home| about an hour he was taken with se- vere pain and vomiting, producing hemorrhage ofthe brain. He linger- ed between life and death until about & o'clock Monday morning when he began to rally and regain consciousness. During the night his entire right side became para- lyzed, but improved some during the day. He grew gradually weaker un- til about half-past one o'clock Tues- | day morning, when his little spirit took its flight to that better world. Funeral services were held Wednes- day morning at 11 o'clock, conduct- ed by Rev. Railsback, of Kansas City, assisted by Reverends Russell and Thompson, of Centerview.

Dublin, June 13.—By the wreck- ing of the excursion train near Arm- | agh yesterday, seventy-four persons were killed, and a hundred more in- | jured. The excursion party occupied two | trains. The first train ascended a heavy grade safely, but the second | was found to be too heavily loaded \ to ascend and several cars were un- coupled and stones placed behind the wheels to prevent them from running down. When thetrain start- ed the stones were jarred out of place and the detached cars started | down the grade. The passengers | tried to escape but the doors were | locked. When four miles had been covered the cars had attained a fear- | ful velocity. Before reaching the | end of the grade they crashed into | the regular train following the excur- sion trains. All the wild cars were splintered into bits. None of those on the passenger train were injured. A car driver named Hughes who visited the scene of the disaster was so horrified at the sight that he died on the spot. His corpse was taken to Armagh in his own cart. The engineer, fireman and guard of the train and traffie manager's clerk were summoned before a mag- istrate and were remanded on the charge of being responsible for the accident. Many anxious friends are making inquiries for missing children at the infirmary to which the injured were taken. Crowds surround the build- ing. The interior presents a sad spectacle. One of the wounded, a boy named Cleland, died this morn- ing. Both of his parents and his two brothers were killed outright. Some of the wounded are in a criti- cal condition. | Still Shaking Them. Johnstowon, June 17.—Fully 5,- 000 men reported for work this morning at 7 o'clock this morning and were immediately assigned to places under the mamagement of several contractors. Dynawmiting the dam was resumed this morning and the shocks that the town is re- ceiving are simply terrifying. Not- withstanding the fact that the citi- zens have notified those in charge of the dynamite that they will hold the state responsible for any damage done to property or persons caused by these terrible blasts, they are as heavy as ever, and every shot shakes buildings etc., for squares around.
