Judge Phillips of Summit town- ship received a letter from Wyoming Territory, Saturday, written by Francis Britton, conveying: the sad news that his father, Harman Brit- ton had been murdered by Indians. This piece of news was given us by G. D. Arnold, who failed to learn any of the particulars except the above. Mr. Britton was a former citi- zen and farmer of Summit township, and was well known not only in the township in which he lived, but throughout the county, and his many friends will besorryt 0 learn of his untimely death. Mr. Britton moved to the territory from this county something like a year ago for the purpose of engaging in the stock |business, taking with him quite a drove of cattle and horses. The cattle were shipped through on the cars incare of Ckas. Radford, while Mr. B. and family went over- | land in wagons. ~~ Obituary.

The Nevada Canning Works to Start On Time J. B. Silver of the Nevada Can- | ning Company, came in last night | and is arranging matters as rapidly as possible for the commencement ‘of work at the canning establish- ment. and is now being put in place. It was manufactured at Baltimore and Syracuse, and Mr. Silver says it is the latest and best made. The works will have a capacity of from 15,000 to 20,000 cans a day; but it is not expected that there will be sufficient produce this season to supply the works at full capacity however, Mr. Silver expects to put up from 5,000 to 15,0000 cans a day. The supply will largely govern this matter. The works will be started about July the 15th—possibly sooner. Tomatoes, corn, apples and pump- kins will be the principal products handled this season. It may be that some beans and peas will be canned. Mr. Silver says about two hundred hands will be employed—mostly boys and girls—by the canning works. Work wil! be eontinued as late in the season as the supply can be —— advantageously.—Nevada The Trvgs has repeatedly urged upon the citizens of this place, the propriety of organizing a joint stock company, for the purpose of starting a canning factory in this |town, but our suggestions have thus far not been heeded. The only way we can account for the leteragy of our business men in tak- ing hold of this enterprise, is from the fact that there has been no unity of action, and now thatthis defect is overcome to a great extent by the organization of a commercial | the better in the future. | Lexington, Ky., June 15.—Gener- |al William Withers, the noted horse | breeder, aged 64 years, died here | this morning from the effects of a | fort during the Mexican war.

Parkinson & Graves and Francisco & Rose, attorneys for defendant, raised the point as to the legality of the ordinanee under which the action was brought and objected to the in- troduction of said ordinance in evi- dence. T. W.
