DEATH OF AN ESTEEMED LADY.—
It was with profound sorrow that the
many friends of Mrs. Samuel Frank
heard of her sudden and unexpected
death which occurred on Wednesday
afternoon of last week. Deceased was
the estimable wife of Judge Frank, and
the beloved and honored mother of our
townsman. Dr. Geo. S. Frank, as well
as two other sons and one daughter,
who are left to mourn the loss of a dear
one. The demise of a woman of her
type, with the noblest christian char
acter and the most gentle and hospita
ble disposition, is indeed calculated to 1
send a thrill of deep regret to the
hearts ofjall who knew her. She en
joyed good health until but a few hours
before her death when she received a
stroke of palsy that ultimately termin
ated a useful and spotless life. Mrs.
Frank was the daughter of Geoige
Brumgart, one of the oldest settlers of
Hrushvalley, and was consequently
well-knowti by old and young. She
was a faithful member of the Lutheran
church most of her life and died the
death of the righteous.
Her burial took place on Saturday
forenoon and owing to her large family
connection and the high esteem the
was held In by all her neighbors and
acquaintances the funeral was one of
the largest seen around here for years.
An impressive sermon was preached by
Rev. Lenhart, the officiating clergy
man. Thus another pilgrim has join
ed the host in eternity for per
manent rest and peace. The writer
offers his sincere condolences to the
surviving members of the bereaved
family.
THE FACTORY AOAIM.— At this
writing it looks as though Millheim is
to have the hosiery factory. The main
point, the nervus rerum , has been suc
cessfully settled and sufficient fuDds
have been secured in stock and bonus
subscriptions to start the industry
whenever the proper time is here. Our
citizens in general and the men of
means in particular have with a very
few exceptions displayed a most lauda
ble spirit of enterprise in this matter.
After several meetings of the stockhold
ers at which the project was deliberate
ly weighed and discussed it became ev
ident to all that an enterprise of this
kind will add materially to the prosper
ity of the borough as well as the sur
rounding country and they took a hold
of it in a measured but determined
way. At their last meeting on Tues
day afternoon a committee of flye, con
sisting of A. Walter, D. A. Musser, J.
VV. Snook, .T. 11. Reifsnyder and John
Stoner, was appointed, vested with ex
ecutive power to make further arrange
ments with the prospective manufact
urers and bring the business to a satis
factory close. This puts the transac
tion in a more tangible shape. There
are of course various details that will
need to be looked after and arranged be
fore the matter may be considered done.
But it is the opinion of the stockhold
ers that unless uclooked for difficulties
should arise the factory is an assured
thing. Messrs. Crawford, the gentle
men who will take charge of the estab
lishment are evidently experienced bus
iness men who possess the necessary
push and snap to make a success of the
undertaaing. Most likely one of them
will be in town within the next few
days. In the meantime those of our
citizens who haye not yet had an op
portunity to subscribe either stock or
bonus contributions are informed that
the stock book is in the hands of A.
Walter, while B. O. Deininger has the
bonus subscription book. In our next
issue we hope to give' further and con
clusive news about the industry.
MULTUM IN PAR vo.—McDonald's
Great Blood Purifier or Sarsaparilla Al
terative is the most highly concentrat
ed, most harmoniously and skilfully
combined of all the blood medicines of
fered to the public. Many certificates
from well-known and worthy persons
could be furnished to substantiate the
virtues claimed for this great medicine,
but the manufacturer prefers simply to
say any purchaser feeling the benefit
derived from the use of a bottle not
equivalent to the seventy-five cents in
vested in the purchase can have their
money refunded.

both daughters of Adam Decker, of

and 1 day. She was a consistent mem
ber of the Reformed church at Hub

teacher of the Snydertown Sunday

wisdom, has in less than two weeks
removed another beloved child from
Mr. Decker's family and a useful and
bright young lady from the church and
Sunday school. She will be sorely miss
