West received the sad intel- Y|ligence of the death of his unele, Jacob Fisher, aged 77 years, at his home in Fayette, Thanksgiving day. He was one of Howard county’s pioneers and most useful and honor- ed citizens. His death was caused from a carbuncle and general debili- ty. He moved to Howard county in 1835, and in 1874 was elected county treasurer. He was prominent in the business circles of the town and no man was more highly esteem- ed. His father served in the war of 1812. Mrs. F. J. Tygard received a tel- egram Sunday evening conveying the sad news of the death of her aged father at his home near Jeffer- sonville, Pennsylvania. The deceas- ed was nearly 90 years of age. His wife died 16 years ago Christmas eve, aged 75 years. Nine children were the fruits of this union, seven of whom survive—all grown. Three of these reside in this section, name- ly: W. C. Orr, of Dade county; Thos. M. Orr, cashier of the Rich Gill Bank, and Mrs. F. J Tygard, of this city.

Ghastly Find. M. L. Wolfe, of Passaic, who re- ———— MoKIBBENS cently returned from a hunting expe- | | dition with his old friend H. Britton, |in Wyoming, relates a ghastly find at the head of Big Horn, about ten miles from the battle ground and imassacre by the Indians of Custer jand his men, and within sight of the | Custer monument. Mr. Wolfe said as they were moving along the mountain side in a secluded place they suddenly came upon the skele ton of aman and horse lying side by side near the path they were traveling. They halted and made an investigation, but time had re- moyed all evidence of the identity of the rider of the horse. They looked for the bridle bit, but this too was missing, and he picked up the under jaw bone of the skeleton and passed on leaving the ghastly sight to return to mother earth. They supposed the bones to be one of Custer’s men who in attempting to make his escape during the mas sacre had fallen a victim to a bullet from an Indian’s gun, who after rob- bing the body left it upon the spot where the brave fellow had fallen to be devoured by the wild beasts. Mr. Wolfe brought back with him the skins of a mountain lion, lynx and bear which are on exhibition at the store of McKibbens. DEATH BY SUICIDE Miss Faunie Phillips Ends Her Young Life With a Dose of Rongh on Rats. Would Rather Die than be Sep. arated from Her Lover, or Disobey the Will of Her Parents. SAD SEQUEL TO A LOVE AFFAIR The Times can not recall an occa- sion when it has been called upon to ehronicle a death of one our citi sens, with more feelings of sadness than that of Miss Fannie Phillips, daugher of Judge and Mrs. J.C. Phillips, of Summit township. Young, vivacious, aceomplished, handsome, very popular and a pleas- ant home, makes the circumstances surrounding this dreadful occur- rence all the more sorrowful. The following is substantially the facts in the case as weget them from Dr Temple, the attending physician: Miss Phillips was somewhat de- spondent over the objections of her father to the attentions and pros- pective marriage to Mr. Sam Hol- land, a young farmer of the neigh- borhood, and Saturday he ex- postulated with her in regard to the matter. She took the objections of her father in apparent good nature, and when he proposed that he would make her a present that evening of acloak and handsome watch and chain, if she would promise him that Awarded Highest Honors—World’s Fair, vRICes MOST PERFECT MADE.

The young man was sent for and arrived about an hour before her demise. She recognized him as je entered the room and said, “Good morning, Sam.” In a few minutes she rtquested a private in- terview with Mr. Holland, which was granted. Mias Phillips passed away about |8 o'clock Monday morning in full possession of her faculties up to al- most the last moment. The deceased was 18 or 19 years of age. and ene of the most popular young ladies in Suramit township, and her sudden aad unexpected death was a great shock to her many friends. The doctor says the death of Miss Phillips was one of the saddest events he ever witnessed. The Times with other friends of- fers it’s condolence to the heart- broken parents. The funeral was conducted from the family residence Tuesday and the remains interred in Oak Hill cemetery, at Butler. Rich Hill has another daily paper, the Tribune, a copy of which is be- ing sent to the Timms. The new daily is a seven column paper gotten up in good shape and well filled with local and telegraph matter and is well patronized. The Times hopes the new birth will make it all right.
