FATALLY KICKED. Tracle IHuith of Albert Cox of Alien Township. Tuesday evening of last week Mr.

Albert Cox, a prominent young man residing with his wife on the B. F. Carmoan iarm in Allen, township near Pottereburg, was fatally kicked in the stomach by a mare he was endeavoring to catch. The particulars ot the sad affair are about as' follows: The mare is somewhat breaohy and is the mother of a young colt and that evening about 5 o'clock when Mr, Cox came in from work he found she had gotten Qut of the pasture lot by jumping the ience. He let the fence down and drove her back in and then thought to catch her and put her in the stable.

She, while not considered wild or vicious, did not let him ap proach at once and take hold of the halter she wore bnt, on her going in' to a corner of the fence he stepped up by her putting his hand on her rump and as he did so she kicked him with one of her feet striking him a terrific blow in the stomacn. While it did not fell him to the ground it made it necessary for him to be assisted to the house which his wife and farm hand did and then sent for the family physician. Dr. Smith of Potteisburg, as it was seen the man was badly injured. Dr.

Smith promptly responded and every thing was done that could be to re lieve Mr. Cox's intense suffering. Dr, Thompson of Raymond, was called in consultation next day as the patient seemed to grow worse instead of bet ter. Mr. and Mrs.

Carmean on learn Ing of the accident to their tenant drove out Wednesday evening to see him and found him conscious and able to talk about the accident and when they left at nightfall he seemed in no immediate danger and there were even strong hopes for his recov ery but later in the evening he began sinking and at 1 o'clock Thursday morning died. His death was a very sad one as he was bnt 22 years ot age and leaves a young wife. Funera' services were held Friday at 2. p. conducted by Rev.

J. B. Ascham of the Marysville E. circuit A What I It.

mustered up sufficient courage to climb the tree and Investigate the nature of the brute. This she did and just as she was about to capture a fine prise for a pet the strange creature jumped down and slowly galloped off into the woods. Miss Otte describes it as be ing In color and sixe like a ground hog but that it had a flat baby tail about 6 to 8 Inches ia length and In many 'other respects was entirely different from any animal she had ever seea and a search of dictionaries and encyclopedias fails to determine its name or character. Since then the school has been watching daily for its return and Miss Otte has armed herself wiUi a gun and la practising its use with a view to securing that beast dead or alive, ahould it ever make its appearance thereabouts We fear she wCl not be sne- csrfil as fcer tahool closes tomorrow am i by the way an enjoyable lctla Masury's paints mert A Conrad. vertlsement.

I Special correaoonlenc to the Journal- On Train to Ciiickamauoa, May 15, last after a-great deal of talking we are leaving the old Buck, eye state All of our farewells have been Bald, and we are on the road going wherever Uncle Sam asks us to go. 'Everything so far has turned out II right and all are well. My youthful appearance was the cause of a great deal of trouble the pasji week as I was mistaken for a private In- an oillcers uniform and shoved in the guard bouse for a few minutes. Five or six of our officers were placed under arrest or made to go to their own guard headquarters to got into camp but it fell to my lot to be humiliated by going to the guard House. The scenes at Columbus today were something that will long be remem bered by every one.

Such an ova- ion as the gallant old llth reoeived never has been and probably never will be equaled. Here and there throughout the camp this morning could be seen Wives, sweet hearts and children bidding' their loved ones a fond good bye, was broken about 12 o'clock -and the march to the city began. All along the line of march, in all about 4 miles, was a dense mass of humanity all waving either the stars and stripes or the Cuban Aug. The firing of can nons, the ringing of bells and-blow-ing of whistles continued until we reached our train which was divided into three sections. Our section which contained the third Battalion, and companies left Oulum- bus at 3:27 p.

The trip from Col- nmnua has been brightened by the presence of large crowds at all of the stations along the. lino. We are about to leave Cincinnati as I am writing. The trip from Cincin nati was spent in sleep. Arrived at Chattanooga at about 9:30 a.

where we were switched around for four long hours when we were started to Chickamauga. Our first Bight at'Chickamauga was a drove of about 300 government mules. After getting off thB train we were ordered to take things easy until we were started to our new camp. Arriving at camp we iound that we had the most beautiful spot ot groui.d in the park, being erally covered with trees. After tents were pitched the cooks having supper ready, the boys pitched in and ate everything in sight.

After supper taps were sounded at 9:30 p. m. and in half an hour the was still, as old Morpheus had claimed us all. NOTES. It looks like war here.

The boys are as brown as berries, For us Camp Bnshnell is no more. We still have opr little yellow dog as our mascot. He will go wherever we go." jf Dr. Wm. M- Goff made his presence at camp doubly welcome by present ing the company a box of cigars.

I am the proud possessor of a hand some new sword which was presented to me by Mrs. Cynthia Wood worth, of Marysville. The officers of each battalion were Quartered in Pullman Palace cars. All the bovs stood the trip well and are in good health. We unintentionally omitted the name of Joseph Mullen in the list of volunteers last week in Lieut.

Otto's list and we now cheerfully njake the correction. tCoMPoerroB I would like to state that the peo ple at home should believe nothing they hear unless it comes from one of the officers of the company, any thing happens to any of the boys their people will be notified immediately.

M. W. Ehnes, a student of the O. W. tj.

studying for the ministry, would fill the M. E. pulpit in this city in the absence of Rev. E. E.

MoCammon on his trip to the Holy Land, but since then it develops that Mr. Ehnes cannot do so and the matter of supplying the service has been left with Rev. J. B. Ascham, of the Marysville Circuit, who will preach, there regularly each Sunday morning or snpply some one in his place.

He will have charge in Mr. MoCammon's absence and his. selection is a satisfactory one.

South ard has once before been sent as a state delegate to the National Congress of these bodies. He last winter served at the head of the committee appointed to codify the laws bearing on these interests and so intelligently and well did he fill his office that he is now considered an. authority law relating to charities and correction. The late legislature heeded, the recommendations of his committee and passed laws in conformity there to. We wish him a pleasant and profitable trip to the metropolis.

LIEUT. F. II. OTTE; Th Recipient of mu Elegant Sword Laat Some five years or so ago, when the late J. P.

Wood worth, son-in-law of. the late Andrew Eeyes, of this city, was superintendent of the Ames Sword Chicopee, Mass, he presented, through his brother-in-law, Dwight Webb, a handsome sword to Ransom Reed Post, G. A. that is, he sent here a fine sword to be voted to some member of the Post or dis posed of in some manner so as to ben- eSt the Post's charity fund. This sword, through rib fault of Mr.

Webb's however, never fulfilled its mission and last week was very appropriately presented to Lieutenant Otte by his wife's aunt, Mrs. Woodworth, who now resides in this city. The sword is a fine one and goes to a worthy young officer of Marysville who will carry it with honor to himself and credit to his country and we feel quite sure the Ames Sword Co. will never naye cause to regret its manufacture and donation. We are glad it was sent here and we are glad ft is to be carried by Lieutenant Otte ia avenging the Maine.
