Louise Lockaby died at the house of her
sister on West First street about five o'clock
yesterday morning. Her death was oc
casioned by typhoid fever, but Coroner
Dundas has decided to hold an inquest and
N iewed the remains yesterday. The ver
dict of the jury will be given next Tuesday
evening. Dr. Henry Flood, the attending
physician, sought the inqueit, in order that
there might be'sno doubt as to the cause of
the girl's death. An autopsy has shown
the cause to be typhoid iever.—Elmira

to have lived at or near Towanda, was kill

James Redding's limber , job, near Painter

whom , hiS friends can get them.-r Wellsboro

An engineer corps under Mr: F. Ansart,
and in the- l employ of the L. "tr It R. Co.,
commenced to-day . to run a line from
TunklaannOck to Bowman's Creek to deter
mine the cost of a railroad along that stream
to the vast , himber regions, of' many miles
in extent, about its head . waters. Should
it be'fund that a road could be built there
at a reasonable cost and the pebple along
the proposed line-do their duty .in helping
the company to secure the right of way, it
is more than. possible that a railroad may

r A dispatch from Athens, order date of
Saturday last, says : "B. F. Campbell, a
man aged forty or

tired of • life and took a large uantity of
laudanum on Friday. His wife 'noticed his

Prof.. George H. Twiss 4 the Columbus
weather prophet, predicts that the winter
will be one of -average temperature for this
latitude. ranging between that of last•and
the previoui winter. Frorathe 15 to the
29 of November, a rain storm followed by
a cold wave, with again mild, btit,not un
seasonable mild weather, as in last Dum
ber: By the 20th of December the , winter
will be . fairly set in, with cold days, in re
gular succession, giving us the ice harvest
early in January; no heavy snow• storms
till February. The first half of March will
give us the rough weather of the winter.
Abotit the 25th the spring will open, and
give us aprore advanced spring than that
of last year. Its western New 'York and
New England the: cold waves will show
their greatest relative intensity. Washing
ington City and the Southern Atlantic coast
will experience a milder winter on the aver
age than last winter.
Quite a serious wreck occurred ,on thp
State Line and Sullivan Rawl, just after
midnight Wednesday.. An extra train,
consisting of 'coal and lumber cars, and one
passenger car, left this
,place about 11
o'clock Wednesday evening, and going up
the heavy gr;ide just Ithis' , side of New Al
bany, the train was found to be too heavy
for the engine, and signals were made to
the-brakemen on the rear of the trains that
it would be cat in two, and that he should
put ou ces and keep the rear end there
until the - "engine returned for it. The
knifeman, however, was sound asleep in
the 'passenger car, and the train ran down
grade at a terrible rate of speed, until It
camS to the switch at Monroeton, where it
wasthrown from the track, smashing a
num ] ' ber of cars and setting fire to the pas
senger coach and entirely consuming it.
The, brakeman escaped from the burning
car unhurt.
Tha Atieertiser's ,Caraptown correspon
dent, writes as follows : "Miss 'Ells In
gham, aged eighteen daughter of H. B. In
gham, was buried' Saturday. having died of
typhoid fever two days ago, after an illness
of ten _days. Mr. Ingham is well-known
throughout Bradford,county; having been
one of the most active business men of this
section; owning And operating several mills
at One time.- ;The young lady had been at
School at Towanda, preparatory to teach
ing. She was highly esteemed and gave
the promise of being n active and useful
person. TwO other sisters are in a critical
condition with same, disease. Bev. D.
Cook conducted the services, six 'yoing la
dies acting as pall-bearers. The grief
stricken parents have Ithe sympathy of the

the Jadecin is a light craft and cleared
many of the obstacles nicely, she foundered
in the end, and the best carpenters hardly
think her worth repairing, and then again,
she was very, badly officered,' but had .a very

Louise Lfzicltalry, daughter of James and
Rose Lockaby ; of this place, died rat the
house of her sistei, on West First Street,
Elmira, Friday morning.. Speaking',of her
death the Elmira. Tidings says: "Fera few
days past reports have been current in the
_city to the effect that Louisa Lockaby,
well-known young lady was 111 from mal
practice. On Friday morning she 'died and
the ugly rumor was further accelerated
and generally credited on the street. The
phyiician in charge, Dr. Henry Flood had
treated the young lady for malignant . ty
phoid fevet; but on account of the rumors
he deemed it proper to have's coroner's in
quest and post mortem examination. Ac
cordingly Coroner Dundas was notified, a
jury empanneled and a post morteaexamr
nation held Friday afternoon. It resulted
in establishing the fact clearly that death
was caused by typhoid fever as treated
and diagnosed by the attending physician."
A very enjoyable evening was passed at
the residence of Mr. C. M. VanWinkel; at
Rome, Pa., on Wednesday last. Their doors
were widely opened and they kindly invited
the "LadieS Aid Society" of the M.' E.
Church, which is doing a noble work here,
under the auspices of the worthy president,
Mrs: Morey, and numerous other guests.
The company consisting Loth of the fair sex
and their escorts and heads tinged with
silver, 'completely thronged the spacious
house to overflowing. After;' some selec
tions were sung and prayer offered by Rev.
S. B. Keeney, the hospitsble host, hostess
and daughter Cassie ,served a sumptuous
banquet, for which they are noted on such
occasions; all partaking of the abnndtince.
After refreshments, the evening was inter
opened- with various amusemeuts and
"Oats" of by-gone days, till the hour drew
near for separation, whoa all retired to
their homes feeling amply repaid and grate
ful to Mr. and , Bfrs.- VanWinkel for their
aenerosity. andliospitality. The net receipts

The North American Review for Decem'
bar commands attention no less by the emi
nence of its contributors than by 'the value
and timeliness
,of !its table of contents.
First, there, is a symposium,: on- "The
Health of American Women," regarded
from three distinct points or view: Dr.
Dio Lewis considers
, the question as it is af -
fedied by the prevailing style ,of i femiiiine
attire, especially by, the practice of !tight
lacing;. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton point=
out the many injurious influences 'or - Social
environment; and Dr. James Read Chad-,
wick gets forth the dffects of education, cli
mate and food, and finally discusiing the
question whether the modification produced
in the European human type by transfer to
America lessens the fertility of women.
Gov. Buren R. Sherman, of lowa, writes of
the "Constitutional Prohibition" of the
liquor traffic in that State, and maintains
that the measure is in entire accord with.,
the traditions of the original settlers, and
approved by men of all'politicac parties and
all nationalities: General Grant, in an
article entitled "An Undeserved Stigma,"
states the facts of Gen, Fitz Jolui Porter's
case, and argues that the sentence of the
court martial that cashiered him was based
on a misconception of the essential circum
stances. Richard A. Proctor writes of
"The Influence of Food on Civilization,"
discussing with much learning and force
some of the most interesting sociological
problems of the present day and of the near
future. Prof. Fisher, of Yale College, in
defining the causes of "The Decline of
Clerical Authority," holds that this decline,
which affects the status of church , and min
ister only as a part or function of the secu
lar State, is by no means to be regretted,
and that -- the spiritual influence of the
church and its ministry is to-day greater
than of old. Finally, there is a symposium
upon the conditions of "Success on, the
Stage," the contributors being six of our
most prominent actors—John McCullough,
Joseph Jefferson, Madame Modjesktii• Law
•ronco Barrett; Maggie Mitchell, and Wil-
Ham Warren.

Hinakinson,. of Ifeshoppen; Pa., was &Ito''' .
ered to be on fi re. When fi rst seen th fire
had made such, bead Way that the budding
and its , conte nts were • totally destroyed.
The mill' was a very good one, having four
runs of stones, three of which were very
good. There was no difficulty in saving the
other property, all being at a safe distance
from the- fire. The low is • estimated at
$lO,OOO, on which there was "an insurance
of $2,00,0. The - loss is a very heavy one to
Mr. Flaringon, one that he . ein illy afford
to boar. The probabilities are against, the
re-building of the mill.

Mr. E. R: Selleck, purchased last spring,
the farm on Baxter Hill, in Granville,

property, he has stinks well near his resi

feet of solid rock, when he struck a flow of
pure soft water ample for the supply of his
farm and never failing. He had eight foot
of water through the prevailing dry season,
