Death or Miss Lulu Livengoocl. There is a reaper whose name is Death And with his sickle keen, He reaps the boarded grain with a breath

And the flowers that grow between. The reaper Death has again entered our midst in the home of Ephraim and Rebecca Livengood and taken their their daughter, Miss Lulu, a young lady beloved by all and everywhere respected for her many excellent qualities of mind and heart. Lulu Livengood was born Oct. 27, 1872, and died January 5, 1897. She united with the Lutheran church when eighteen years of age, under the ministry of Rev. Uarb, and has ever lived an earnest, consistent Christian life. Possessed of an amiable disposition, she ever won for herself admiratiou and respect for her gentle, unobstrusive manner and lady-like deportment, and left many evidences that for her "to die was gain." Her long and painful illness she bore with heroic fortitude, and though her desire to live was strong as it ever is with the young, she frequently expressed her willingness and readiness to go. So we write this brief record of a young life that was unsullied and pure, and of whom we believe it will be said, "she hath done what she could." ..FIHKXIJ.

Almost a Fatal Case.

Wednesday morning when Jas. Gordon and wife of Highland awoke they found themselves sick and almost powerless. Mrs. Gordon arose aud at once fainted on the lloor. Her husband arose and by a great exertion managed to stagger to the door and throw it wide open. He then turned to his wife, and although deathly sick, he managed to apply a few remedies. Just as she regained consciousness he amted. Mrs. Gordon crawled to the door and called for the neighbors who came in. Dr. Gott was summoned and by hard work managed to prevent death from asphyxia. The house, had been tightly closed and a blocked stove pipe allowed the burnt natural gas to escape in the room. Mr. aDd Mrs. Gordon will not be able to get out for some time, as both arc still quite sick.

Plenty (Jas.

The scarcity of gas in some parts of town during the recent cold snap has raised general apprehension of a shortage of the precious fluid during the long weeks of severe weather which are ahead of us. We are informed, however, that there is no need of fear, as the company has drilled several new wells which will be connected with the pipe line in a few days.
