turned to go the woman caught him and called to her boy to shoot. Two or three shots were fired through the door, but without fatal results. We understand the case is to be taken into court and the public will probably hear more of it,” o

‘ IN MEMORIAM. DEATH, whose iron rule is ever terrible to the best, the wise and the pure, seems more awful when he lays his icy hand upon the youthful boy, removing him from his joyous gambols and the sea of active life, without even an echo of warning from the dreary house of WoE. Such was the fate of HENRY C. FINK, who in the bloom of health was taken from the family circle of fond parents and loving brothers and sisters at a time when the grim monster—Death—was least expectéd. He, . **Who having lived the pride and delight of e ‘his lx;arents;, : The ’oﬁit e consolation and pattern of his riends,” ; was manly, kind and courteous to all whom he met. Inhis sad and untimely death the family has lost a loving son and brother, his comrades an obliging friend and companion, society an active and'promising yougn man, ; In their grief and mourning his family and friends have the sympathy of all ; for, .- “Who above, below, can h(t)‘pe tolaat, o - . If the young man’s life thus fleets away i God’s will be done. : “And, when the .gartlng storms of life are o’er, ‘ Ma{ yet rejoin him In a happier shore; As those we love decay, we die in ganﬁ‘ ot Btrlnlg after string is sevei’d from the heart ; - ’Till loosened life at last—but breathing clay, Without one pang, is glad to fall away.” ~

The Likhtest Running, Least Complicated Shuttle Machine Made.

The Vertical Feed, as now perfected and applied to “The New Davis Sewing Machine,” is admitted by the best living experts to be the greatest advance in sewing mechanism since the invention of Sewing Machines. “The Davis” does every variety of sewing possible with the old underfeed machines, and in addition it accomplishes an “immense range of beautiful work utterly impossible for any other Machine to duplicate,” which is convincing proof of the superiority over all competitors. The simplicity, ease of management and effectual manner in which the “Vertical Feed” overcomes the “many faults and defects” of all underfeed machines is surprising. e e ~ Any one needing a-Sewing Machine will regret having bought any other after seeing the “New Davis.” P - Machines in operation and for sale at F.
