BEEZIE WHITE:S BODY FOUND.
Clothing Became Entangled in a Piece
ot Timber In the River at
National Bridge.
The dead body of a woman was ob
served in tbe Lackawanna river, under
tbe bridge near the National breaker
of William Connell & Co., yesterday
morning at 7 o'clock.
A grappling iron attache 1 to a long
rope was entangled in the dress of tbe
corpse after which the rope was fast
ened to tbe underwork of the bridire to
prevent the remains from floating down
the stream. In this manner the body
was left uutil tha arrival of Coroner
Kelly. When he reached the place he
ordered that the body be removed from
the water, but there were uo friends of
the dead there to undertake the task.
A bystander. Martin Pnllbin, of
Minooka, volunteered to go into tbe
river, which was very high, A long
rope was fastened to the sleepers ou
top of tho bridgo and he slid down on
it to the river forty feet below. He
then tied the rope around tbe body and
it was drawn up and removed to a
spot near the weigh office of the Na
tional colliery.
The coroner had by this time em
paueled a jury, consisting of Thotuae
J. Flanuery, Michael T. Howley, Mar
tin Philbiu, James C. Beamish, Patrick
F. O'Hara, and C. J. Evang. The re
mains wera viewed, and W. D. Ken
nedy was sworn as tho first witness.
His testimony was to the effect that
tbe body was that of Miss Beezie A
White, the domestic who lived with
him up to the uight of March 11 at
1717 Washington aveuue.
It will be remembered that the pa
pers at that time contained an account
of the disappearance of Miss White
and tbe fact that she left a note stating
that they could look for her body iu
the Lackawanna river.
Mr. Kennedy identified the remains
as those of Beezie White, from the
plush sacque, wine colored dress, gait
ers, and uppsr false teeth. The corpse
was so badly decomposed that her fea
tures were unrecognizable.
Coroner Kelly notified Undertaker
Uwen Cusick and the body was con
veyed to bis establishment late in the
afternoon. Miss Whitd is supposed to
havo been demented when she left
Kennedy's residence on March 11, The
river in the vicinity of Providence was
immediately dragged, but no trace of
her could be fonnd
The jury last night returned a ver
dict to the effect that Miss White
drowned herself while suffering from
a lit of temporary insanity.

tbe Lesson of Glvloe;
Rev P. C. Scott, a returned mission
ary from tho Lower Congo, Africa,

Some ask what God lg going to do
with the heathen' soul on tbe day of

toward thu consolidation of the two
boards of the Ancient Order of Hiber

wanna county.
About a year ago tne national con

deliberations tended toward uniting
the two boards. To this end the differ
ent county boards of the Ancient Urder
of both divisions have been lending a
helping baud toward a final coDsulidV
tion
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
a committee of twelve was appointed
to confer with a similar committee of
the Board of America to arrange a basis
on which the two organiz-itioua may bo
joined as one. A press committee was
also appointed to collect the intended
plans of the committee and advertise
them throughout the couuty.
After the convention closed the mem
bers of the couuty board and delegates
were surprised by a supper served iu
the room below the Jconvention hall by
the wives and daughters of the mem
bers of the Board of Erin of Hyde Park.
It was a bountiful repast, and while
the assembled people were ranged
around the festal board all formality
was dispensed with and a cample of
Irish hospitality in its truest sense pre
sented. When the banqueters had left the
dinll g hall they returned to the meet
ing room above and an evening of song
and oratory began. Thomas J. Bil
boa was the presiding officer, and
seated ou the platform were Hon. T.
