COUNTY, KANSAS, THURSDAY, trated with bowel complaint and soon after spinal menengetis seized upon him and for a time his life was despaired of, but he finally rallied and was rapidly convalessing until the 20th of July, when he was again prostrated with the same complaint and for a few days was very low; again he rallied and was able to sit, up, and even plays a little at times, but his indigestion bad and his teeth were troubling him terribly, and in a few days he took another relapse, worse than the others. His, poor weak emaciated little body could endure no more, and despite the best of care and the most skillful treatment he gradually grew weaker until Saturday, about 2 p.

he passed away without a struggle: fell "asleep in Jesus." The funeral was at the family residence on Sunday at 2 p. conducted by the Rev. Mr. Courtny, pastor of the north M. E.

church, from these words: "Labor not for the meat that perisheth, but for that meat that endureth unto everlasting life." -John 6-27. This is a severe blow to the afflicted parents who are among comparative strangers; but God gave them kind friends who were ready and willing to assist them in their affliction, and He who said "suffer little children to come unto Me," was near to sustain them. Mr. and Mrs. Carrington have the sympathy of all who know them.

"I take these little lambe, said He, And lay them in my breast; Protection they shall find in Me, In Me be ever blessed." Mrs. T. JONES. OBITUARY. DIED--At the home of his parents, near Waverly, Kansas, of typhoid fever, Thomas, eldest son of Mr.

and Mrs. John Zimmerman, formerly of Johnson county, Kansas. The deceased was born near Knoxville, October 4th, 1867, and died, August 25th, 1887, aged 19 years, 10 months and 21 days. Thomas came to Coffey county with his parents in the spring of 1886, and by his sociability and good behavior, soon won the esteem of all the young people as well as the respect of all the good people in the community, where his sad death has caused much regret. and sorrow.

He was ever sociable, light hearted and jolly, with a good word for all, well liked in our community and particularly beloved of his parents, brothers and sisters, in whose home circle a vacancy has been made that time can never fill. The family have the heart felt sympathy of the entire community in bereavement. "But we bow in Him whose will is supreme." Johnson county, Kansas papers please copy. D. F.

Mathis'. 6 -From one of our Harris friends we learn that the game ball played at Garnett on last Thursday between the Garnett and Harris boys, resulted in a victory for the Harris club, although the game was called at the close of the sixth inning. One of the special features of the game was the fine work of George Lacy, of the Waverly ball club, who made several difficult catches while playing in centre field. Home runs were made by Nichols and Owen, also playing with Harris. -The Waverly schools will begin Sept.

5, 1887. The Deaf and Dumb. Superintendent Walker, of the State Institution for the Education of the Deaf and Dumb, at Olathe, Kansas, sends us word that the next term of school will commence Wednesday, September 14th. and that it is desirable that all persons knowing of deaf children of school age who have not yet attended that Institution, should communicate with him early, in regard to admission. A large $50,000 addition is under erection, and the number of students in attendance will probably be 230-all from Kansas.

A common school education is given, along with instruction in cabnet-making and carpentry, shoe-making and typesetting, for the male students, and domestic work and drawing and painting, for the female students. The corps of teachers numbers 15 in the literary dedartment and 4 in the industrial. The Institution is under the control of the Board of State Charitable Institutiona, Jacob Stotler, president, and is free to residents of the State of Kansas. There seems to be an undue ignorance of the provisions our State has made and is making for this class of her unfortunates, judging from the large number of persons who have not taken advantage of the benefits offered through this Institution. It is estimated that something over 200 in this in state be in this school who are not.

Persons knowing of deaf children or those who of hearin-" would be performing a charitable act by putting them in correspondence with Superintendent Walker. In Memorium. Died, at ElDorado Springs, Aug. 27th, 1887, Merle Birdwick, only son of G. C.
