ANOTHER OF GEORGE WOOD’S CHILDREN DIES.

A telegram from Mt. Vernon, No. Dak., received here by relatives of George Wood Sunday evening, stateed that another of his children had died of spinal meningitis that day and was buried Sunday. This one was their second child, Victorine, aged six years, and leaves them but two of the four children they took with them to So. Da. less than derstood to be sick with the disease, last week. The two that have died are the middle children, their eldest and youngest still surviving, although one of these at least is understood to be sick with the disease which is usually fatal. The family and Mrs. Bruce Porter, who is assisting them in their troubles, are quarantined. They are certainly having a terrible experience and their many friends here feel very sorry for them in their misfortune.
