She was educated at Stanton, Va. Her music was given especial attention. She has a yery sweet voice well under control. She isa remarkably pretty girl, and the late Gen. Skelby rec ognized this when he eppointed her as one of the pretty girls to repre- |sent the state at the Confederate reunion at Richmond, Va., which honor she gracefully declined be- cause she was not the daughter of an ex-confederate. Miss Harriet is an amiable young lady and is loved by all who know her. The young eouple stsrt in life with bright prcspects and the best wishes of this entire community. Minnie Kose, a handsome young lady of St. Louis, committed suicide Sunday night at her home because her parents refused their consent to her marriage with the man of her choice. Now the man of her choice will go and find another girl. Three men were killed ia Louis- ville, Kentucky, Sunday night, mak- ing twenty murders in the eity in the past three months. Such a record for oue town is not calculated to encourage imwigratioa i:to the blue grass state. Twenty six head of catlle were killed by lightning in a pasture near Rockville, during the storm Thure- day evening last. The cattle were huddled by a wire fence, and it is thought were killed by a single bolt which followed the wire. The owner of the cattle liyed in St. Louis. Capt. H. P. Nickell, residing 10 miles west of this city was in town Friday. He said the storm Thur:- day evening at his house was severe, and his family were greatly alarmed and tock to the cyclone cellar. He ssid his place was pretty badly shook up, the worst damage, how- ever, being to the grove of trees about his house. At Eldorado Springs a lad vamed Fowkes, 11 years o'd, and a lad 7 years of age, named Griffith, fell out and hada fight.

The wound is dangerous and there is but small hopes of the little fellow’s recovery. The funeral of Mre. Jeanette Moss, who died in this city Monday, took place Tuesday morning and the remains were taken to the burying ground at Johnstown for inte: ment. The deceased was the mother of Milton Moss, the unfortunate young man killed in the well explosion, which occurred in this place a short time ago. It is said the loss of this son and the manner of bis death greatly preyed upon the mind of the aged mother and was the direct cause of has‘ening her death. Noah Nyhart and Dr. J. R. Pat terson, farmers residing near Nyhart, were inthe city Tuesday evenirg. They reported the bottoms flooded by the Marias des Cygre river and left.
