News of Minor Note.

William Moore, a deputy sheriff, killed Seymour Spencer, a miner at Bear Creek mines, Kentucky. In Needles, Aria., a cloudburst did much damage. The water was three feet deep in the business streets. Firebugs have created a reign of terror in Big Lick Township and the neighboring village of Van Lue, in Hancock County, Ohio. Barna, with large quantities of wheat, were set on fire and burned down, and a house and the wagon factory were destroyed.
