Death of Mrs. Archibald Derby
After an illness of about four weeks,
Minnie, wife ol Archibald Derby of
Plainfield, New Jersey, formerly Miss
Everett daughter of F. M. Everett, a
former resident of Bloomsburg, now
living at Mt. Carmel, died at her
home at the above mentioned place
Monday afternoon. In the early part
of July, Mrs. Derby was seized with
typhoid fever, and although she ap
parently recovered, the seeds of the
life destroying disease remained and
developed into its worst form, which
after intense suffering, ended in her
death.
About a year and a half ago she was
united to Archibald Derby of Plain
field, New Jersey, where they have re
sided ever since. The deceased was
a patient sufferer, and endured the
agony of the disease with which fhe
was afflicted, tenderly cared for by de
voted relatives and friends, hoping un
til her very last day on earth, to re
cover, then after offering a silent
prayer for the welfare of her infant
child and husband, she submitted her
self to the will of Him, who is all wise,
and sank peacefully to the sleep that
knows no waking. It is indeed a sad
case, and the deepest sympathy is felt
for the bereaved husband. Mrs. Derby
was an examplary woman, a kind and
devoted wite and mother, and was
universally esteemed. Her memory
will impart an influence for good in
the community in which she resided.
Mrs. Derby is survived by a husband
and a seven months old daughter, her
lather, living at Mt. Carmel, and sister,
Mrs. Eugene F. Carpenter of this
town.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at her late home in Plainfield, New
Jersey, yesterday afternoon at one
o'clock. Interment in the cemeterv
at that place.

Manila Not Dead-
The private soldiers1 lot in the
Philippines may not be a bed of roses
but reports from civilians connected
with expeditions make Manila out a
very decent sort of place. A Chicago
boy, whose connection with the gov
ernment gives him a "pull," writes
that life is far from unpleasant in our
new possessions.
He and two other Americans are
keeping house. They have a Chinese
cook, who does all the marketing.
They pay him $140 a month, which
is equal to about $65 in American
money, and he feeds them well and
makes his profit out of the sum. Each
ot the Americans had a "black boy"
to whom he pays $3. 50 a month.
These boys do pretty much everything
except eat, and sleep and breath, for
their masters. Before the Americans
arrived their wages were $1.50 but
prices have risen. Everything is
bought fiesh in the norning and eaten
the same day in order not to attract
flies and ants. Frozen meat was
delivered at eight cents a pound.
The weather is not terrific, at least
at certain seasons. In May, for in
stance, at six p. m. the mercury
always stood at about 86. During the
night it went down to 78. At noon
it was from 91 to 95, and something
like 115 to 120 in the sun. Ameri
cans have to be careful about expos
ure in the middle of the day, but the
writer said he had been out with a
camera without injurious effects.
Any indulgence in alcholic drinks,
notwithstanding the prevalence of the
whiskey and soda habit, is dangerous.
Good water is hard to get however.
The city water is boiled and filtered,
and even then is used only in coffee
and for cooking. Dependence is placed
almost entirely on bottled waters.
As to dress, all sorts of costumes
are in evidence. Three white suits a
day is the regular allowance. An or
dinary, common American "boiled
shirt," with a stiff bosom, can be worn
01 tside the trousers. A collar is
necessary4 but no necktie. Hats and
shoes are white. Mosquito nettings
are vitally important in every estab
lishment. The conclusions of the writer seem
to be that the American can live in
comfort in Manila, provided he has
means and takes care of himself.

' Death in a Burning Barn
Henry Lanning, aged about 24
years of Luzerne county, met a horri
ble death Monday afternoon during a
severe storm. He had just driven the
last three horses into the barn and
was taking off their harness when the
barn was struck by lightning and the
three horses were killed. The bolt
set the barn on fire and the wind
quickly swept the flames all over the
barn.
Augustin Lanning, his father, and
others in the house, ran to the scene
and saw the three horses lying dead
on the floor, while the young man lay
under one of the horses struggling to
free himself and shrieking for help, for
masses of blazing hay were all around
him. The father tried to reach him,
but was driven back by the flames.
Then others tried, but were driven
back. Gradually the young man's
cries ceased, and soon after the barn
fell in. Three houis after the fire
started the body was recovered.

The "New Lippincott" Magazine
For September, 1899.
The complete novel in the "New Lippin
cott" for September is entitled "The Duchess
of Nona," by Maurice Hewlett. This is an
Italian story of the picturesque and dramatic
days of Osar Borgia. A young English girl
of simple birth ascends the Ducal throne of
Nona and is wretched in her rich surround
ings. The passion of an Italian lover brings
on a crisis which has the charm of a great
stage picture. Mr. Hewlitt's handling of
the plot is masterly, and his power has never
been so evident as in this magnificent scene.
