Death of Knott Burger.
E.ios Berger, ono of tho earliest set
tlers of this county, wbere he resided
for over twenty-live years, died at his
home in San Jose. Cal., February 6,
18J8, at the age of eighty-two years
and ton months. Mr. Berger was
well known here, being a prominent
resident, and hosts of old friends will
regret to learn of his death.
He was the father of Mi s. George
Seybolt of Oakland, Cal., Mrs. S. 11.
Jonnson and Miss Louie Berger of San
Jose, Mrs. S. S. Alley, J. W. and Geo.
Berger of Nebraska, and J. P. Berger

knew him.
She Is Calm and national.
Many are tne rumors in circulation
as to the mental and physical condi
tion of Miss Mary Kuwitzky, who shot
and killed her father while he slept
on la6t Wednesday morning. She is
taking things quietly and has quieted
down and seems to be perfectly ra
tional. She is staying with .riends
and she puts in most of her time study
ing and reading. It is not thought
that she will lose her mind, but that
in a short time she will be all right.
There will be no prosecution in her
case aa the coroner's jury settled that,
and all talk to contrary is mere boih.

A Strange Adventure.
Joe McCoy, engineer on tin engine
which draws a fast passenger train on
the B. & M , struck what looked a
little like a man Sun Jay morning, as
he was Hearing Deertield at a forty
mi;e an hour gait. The object was
pitched or thrown over into a ditch,
a-.il when the train reached the
slit '.ion the engir eer reported the
in itter, as the str ong smell of whisky
on the engine made him cenciudo that
the object might have betn a drunken
man. The section foreman went b .ck
to see and found a broken bottle of
Sehnapp's,but no m n. On enquiry the
man was found at a farm house nearby
with a badly bruised shoulder, but
no bones were bioken. The fellow had
evidently been drunk, but the blow
he had received sobered him. It was
strange, indeed, that the man was not
killed outtight, aud lo think he did
not even, have any broken bones seems
almost incredible.

Tho program furnished by the

was none of this valuable Remedy in

and cDosider it one of the very best
remedies for croup that I have ever
found. One dose has always been
suliicient, although I use it freely.
Any cold my children contract yields

conscientiously recommend it for

grown iuusty in tho lapse of years, they
reposed at tho bottom of the desk
drawer.
"This lily," Kit id Leonard, sighing,
"was the flower given me by Blanche,
my first love, when I took from her
lips a timid kiss. She was as white as
its impeccable petals, fragrant as its
pure corolla, graceful as its drooping
stem, and who knows what might huve

"And the rose?" asked Bayard.
"Ah, that was later 1" said Leonard,

rosy as her warm being, and the flower's

Hard to Heat a Hoy.
A cigar dealer in the west end said
to a reporter for tho Cincinnati Com
mercial Tribune : "It takes a mighty
6harp man to get ahead of a boy, for a
fact. One of them came in here not
long ago, and he was old enough to buy
cigarettes aud w7anted a package. I sold
them and got the money. In a minute
a neighbor came in and wanted to know
what the boy bought. I told him.
"'Well,' said he, 'that beats the
devil! Do you know what that boy did?
He was in my store about five minutes
ago and asked me to buy a pamphlet
that is issued by the Anticigarette
league, whatever that is. He told me
that the boys in the public schools were
trying to sell them everywhere to do
away with the bad habit of cigarette
smoking among the schoolboys. I
thought it was a good thing, and I
bought one from him. He sold some
others in the same neighborhood. Now
that little rascal comes in here and
spends my money for cigarettes, and
I'll Let a dollar that you'll find him
around here somewhere near smoking
for all that's out. I'm going to look
him up.'
"The next day I asked him if he had
caught the kid, and he said:
" 'I did. He and some chums were
having a good time of it, and, more
than that, all of them were in the same
business. They thought it was a good
joke, and I suppose it was on me but
if they come around my store again
they'll get booted out.'
"But," said the cigar dealer, "they
are too sharp to get caught. They only
work one man at a time, and none of
the gang ever goes back again. They keep
a list, and I expect an examination will
show that they have beerl to every store
in that whole neighborhood. Where
they get the pamphlets I do not know,
but I imagine some of the good people
of the league had them printed for gra
tuitous circulation, and the boys con
cluded to sell them. They're pretty
slick. '

A Boston lady of the most reserved

the large stores when she was ap

and loud looking woman, who held out
a pudgy hand in a bright green kid
glove and said:
"Why, how do yon do, Mrs. Blank?"
Mrs. Blank ignored the proffered
hand and, drawing herself up stiffly,
said frigidly:
"I do not think that I know you,
madam."
"No, I s'pose not," replied the wom
an, in nowise embarrassed by the cold
ness of her reception, "but I've knowed
you by sight for a long time, and now
I've got a hired girl who worked at your
house once a year or two ago, and she's
