Reading, July !'. A terrible
mining accident occurred late yes
terday afternoon at Jones' ore mines,
Carnarvon township, by which two
men were instantly killed and several
injured. The particulars of the acci
dent areas follows; About thirty men
are engaged in the mines, among the
number being John Kutz, aged nine
teen years, aud John Fatten, aged
twenty-two years. A blast had been
tired, and these two men, with others,
ran lor cover ro escape trie nying mis
siles. A piece of rock weighing about
fifty pounds exploded in several pieces,
one of which struck Patton on the
head, causing instant death. Kutz was
struck in the stomach, and lived
about ten -minutes. Roth men were
unmarried.
Washington, July 30. Superin
tendent Davis of the New Orleans
Mint reports to the Treasury Depart
ment that he will during the move
ment of the cotton and sugar-cane
crops put out from New Orleans eight
or ten millions of standard silver
dollars. The annual demand for the
silver dollar is thought to be about to
recommence, to be followed inevitably
by a backward flow of coin into the
Treasury vaults. The Treasury De
partment iias not purchased the full
amount of silver bullion required by
law for coining into sliver dollars for
several weeks past. The cause of this
is that the high prices which have
been placed upon bullion by dealers
have rendered its purchase impos
sible. In Ayer's Ague Cure we have a
positive remedy for fever and ague and
ull malarial disorders, and one entirely
free from quinine, arsenic, or other
injurious drugs. It is the chemical
aud medioinul triumph of the age.

JOHN MOVER,
Administrator of Isaac 1
Coleman, deceased. f
Death of Jiidgro James L. Willis.
He died nt Mt. Pleasant, on the 8th
day of July, in his 89th year. We
shall not dwell on the early chapter of
this subjectbut start with his career
with his advent into this State, and
the event of his life immediately prior
to his coming here, that of his alleged
connection with the abduction of
Morgan of. Masonic history. Judge
Gilils was tried and acquitted; but
the history of those times remain to
be written. It was soon after the
Morgan abduction or his dlsap
pearance.that Judge Gillis moved Into
this State, the Mt. Pleasant Journal
says in lWJ, and located In Jefferson
county, "then almost almost a wilder
ness, with his nearest neighbors six
teen miles distant and his nearest
postofrlce seventy miles distant. Here
he cleared a large body of land aud
built a saw and grist mill and become
the first, extensive manufacturer in
that region, in which Interest he was
engaged-until lie came to Iowa in
lfiij. He was soon appointed associate
judge of Jefferson and Franklin
counties, serving two terms. In 1S40
was elected a member of the legisla
ture of Pennsylvania, serving three
years in the house and three in the
senate. 1 n lN li he was elected a mem
ber of Congress from his district, and
during Mr. Buchanan's administra
tion he was appointed Indian agent.
He also served as -mail agent tit San
Francisco under President Pierce. He
was an Intimate friend of James
Buchanan and was a delegate to the
convention which nominated him.
He made his first visit to Iowa in 1S!7,
and when he returned home found
his Democratic friends were again
running him for the. legislature. He
again came to Iowa in 1SH2, where lie
since made his home with his son
Charles in this city. He was mar
ried in lKUi to Miss Mary Ridgway, of
Philadelphia, who died in lsl, leav
ing three children, Ridgway R. and
Charles B , who lived and .lied in this
city, and Jcanucttc C, Mrs Houk, of
Ridgway, Pa. In ISis he was again
married to Miss Celia A. Berry, of
Xew York, who died in 1W5, leaving
a family of seven children ; R. W., a
journalist in Richmond, Va., Claudius
V., of Kane, Pa , James M., of the U.
S. Xavy and captain of the ship Lack
awanna, Robert S., of this city, Mrs.
Porter mid Mrs. Xoxon, of Xew
York State, and Mrs. Henry Whiting
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa,
"Mrs. Gillis was a most affectionate
father and Ids children were devotedly
attached to him. Xo filial duly was
neglected by them. Widely separated
they would visit him whenever he ex
pressed a wish to see them, and by
their affect Innate care, showed the
trong love I hey bore him. This feel
ing of consideration and re.-peet
was also shared by his grand-children
to whom lie was an example of vigor
ous manhood and well-tilled years.
He has made his home with his sou
Charles and bis good wife Emma, for
the last twenty years, or more, and
dining that time has never had a wish
unsatisfied that it was possible for
kindly bauds to grant. His sou and
daughter-in-law have been most un
sparing in their kindness to him,
which he appreciated fully and could
hardly speak of without much feeling.
The patient devotion of Mrs. Gillis
to this venerable man through the
many years of his failing strength is
a praise-worthy example of the filial
duty which is loo often withheld from
those over whom the Hood of years
lias passed. The tragic deatli of his
son Charles, last March, was a severe
shock to the Judge, from which lie
never recovered, probably shortening
his life. Though always of a high
moral sense and with a firm faith in
the teachings of the Bible, he has,
since tlic death of his son, been more
firmly impressed with the necessity of
preparing for the future. Even up
to his latest hours he took au active
interest i,i the affairs of the outside
world and was plundged into the
deepest anxiety by by the late attempt
upon the life of President Garfield.
The funeral services were largely at
tended and were conducted at the
house by Rev. Tappan. The cere
monies at tlie grave were under the
direction of the Masonic order of
which order he was one of the heart!
est supporters, under their beautiful
and impressive ceremonies he was
laid to rest 'full of age like a shock of
corn in its season.' The children
present at the funeral were Mr. Claude
Gillis and Mrs. Houk, of Pennsyl
vania, Henry Whiting and husband
of Cedar Rapids, R. S. Gillis, of our
city, and bis grand-daughter. Mrs. Ira
Jamison and husband, of Wappelo,
Jowa.
