MISS ANNA M, IRVINE,
Died at the Home of Her Sister Sunday
Evenlag.
Miss Anna M. Irvine, sister of Mrs,
Rev. 8. H. Eisenberg, passed peace-
fully into rest on last Sunday evening.
She had her home with Rev. Eisen-
berg and his family for many years,
and was a sufferer from bronchial dis-
ease, which finally resulted in con-
sumption,
Since the first of May she gradually
grew weaker, but when she learned
that her sister, Miss Ray was coming
home from Japan, she earnestly hoped
she might be spared to see ber again,
Her sisters, Miss Ray, and Mrs. Kent,
of Johnstown, came on Monday after-
noon, just one day too late. Weary
nature could no longer resist the rav-
ages of disease.
She was a daughter of Rev, Malthew
Irvine, a missionary pastor in Bedford
county, Pa. Reared im a christian
household, a lifelong member of the
Reformed church, her faith in Christ
never faltered. In disposition she was
modest, and went out but little,
Services, conducted by Rev. Krider
Evans of Pottstown, were held at the
parsonage on Wednesday evening and
today the body was taken for inter-|
ment at Bediord, Pa.

Temperature of the week ending 5 a.
m. August 22 will average above nor-
mal east of the Rockies and below
west. This week will constitute the
hottest period of August east of the
Rockies. Rainfall of th’: week will be
generally below east of the Rockies
and about normal west.
My forecasis for July were remarka-
bly well verified. The culmination of
the long-foretold drought and its inju-
ries to crops in July is a substantial
proof of the practical utility of these
forecasts. With all their Government-
paid-for records and weather knowl-
edge the National weather bureau can-
not make a beginning toward such ac
curate and valuable forecasts as were
contained in these bulletins for July.
Last week's bulletin gave assurance
that the drought would continue
through August, materially injuring
the corn crop.
The southern drought has been se
vere, but has not injured cotton to as
great an extent as usual. The drought
will continue to the south through Au-
gust. How much cotton will be in-
jured is a problem.
Church Dedicated.
The newly built United Evangelical
church on the mountain a few miles

Increase of Fever at Miffliabarg,
There has been an alarming increase
in the number of iyphoid fever cases
at Miflinburg dariog the past week,
The doctors report over 50 cases, in va-
rious forms, many of them fortunately
being of the mild order. The cause is
attributed to some counlamination in
the water supply. Lewisburg Journal.

This was a case of a person who had
resided in Miles township for a long
time and had removed to Jefferson
county, where he became demented
and was sent to a state asylum, Buit
was brought against Miles township
for asylum expenses. Order of remov-
al affirmed and Clover towaship to pay
costs, Overseers of the Poor of Walk-
er township, this county, vs, the Over-
seers of the Poor of Porter township,
Clinton county. This was a case where
a person by the name of Frank Toner,
who had resided in Lamar township
fora long time, had removed into
Walker township to get work, Bome
of the citizens of that township had an
order of removal taken out, and when
the Overseers of the Poor visited Ton-
er they found he was not in need of
any assistance from the Poor board
and that he was earning a good liviog
for himsell apd family. The court sus-

Give Him a Fall Receipt,

a true Christian and an adamantioe
pillar of the church, and loves sacred
songs, but when night after night he
