Death of Miss Georgia McDonald. Sunday evening, December 15til Miss Georgia McDonald, after protracted suffering, fell asleep to j awaken in tho blissful home where { pain can never come. She was n native of South Carolina. For some time she was a student in the j Columbia Female College where ! she was converted and soon after j united with toe Methodist church. Five years ago, in company with tho other members of the family, she moved to New Mexico when for two years she taught in thc public schools. It has not yet been throe years since she came with the family to La Junta, the mother having purchased a home at 50!? Raton avenue. The western climate had proven to be a tonic to Miss McDonald's broken health until last summer when visiting Manitou she con tracted a heavy cold, the effects of which followed her until death. She was a patient sufferer and re signed to the Father's will. Cul tured and relined, her life was full of good cheer for all who crossed her pathway. The home hus been robbed of a sunbeam and the shud dow rests heavily on the mother, Mrs Margaret McDonald, two sis ters, ,1 I) Craighead and Miss Clarice McDonald, and two broth ers, Jack and Angus. The funeral was held from tho home Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock, the services being conduc ted by Kev R II Ayres, pastor of the Methodist church, of which church Miss McDonald was a mem ber. The young men acting ns pall bearers were all intimate, friends of the family, nearly all of them having boarded with them i for a time. Tho beautiful Moral from so many loving friends boro witness to the highest seem in [ which Miss McDonald was held hy all who knew her. We bclcive she luis but gone to her coronation. I We shall s.ie her again. La Junta, Colo Tribuno. ) 1 A 1 THE B. AND C. TO DR|AK? The first Railroad in Brownsville Reached There This W<ek. For the first time a locomotive engine rolled into Brownsville township this week. Itt wont across Three creeks, Just I below Drake's mill. The B and GJ train ia now pauling frcight from Drake, and tho passenger trains wjli run to that point in a few dolys, as soon as a jittlo leveling up can bo completed In the fill across Th reo creeks. I President Heckart says tljat W | B Drake promised him some* egg nog if he would como over io his store on tho locomotivo Christmas day. Tlie work was being4Mlshed. with a view to getting the eggnog, butJVfr Heckart says Mr Drake] played a trick on him by turning] tho water loose from Iiis mill wheel and flooding tho creek so that tho j trestle could not bo quite comple ted by Christmas lt lacked just] nbout ono days work,and Mr Heck art missed the eggnog. There are three stations on tho new portion of thc road, Hcott, at Edwin Weatherly\s place; Argyle, at J N Drake's; and Drake, at W Ii Drake's store and mill. Mr Weatherly named the station at his place Heckart, for tho pres ident of thc road; but Mr Heckart is too modest to accept that name, and has named it ?Scott, for Alex Scott of Pennsylvania, tho presii dent of tho Scott Lumber Com pany. Scott is six miles from Bon nettsville, Anryle 10, and Drake ll, A two mile spur will branch off from tho main linc between Scott and Argyle und will be built j to Blenheim. it is also proposed to extend thc road from Drake southward six or eight miles. Thc Scott Lumber Company has timber as far down tho riveras Cashway ferry and tho Arcadia place, now owned by W A and B D Rogers. Death of John .. Moore. John S Moore died Sunday, about noon, after an illness of less than nu hour. He was attending! services nt, the Methodist cliurcft ing his pulse, when his spirit sud denly departed. Mr Moore attended a meeting j of the stewards of the chsrch just before preaching, and did not complain of feeling unwell. lt is thought that he was taken with a sudden attack of acute indigestion while in church. The funeral services were con ducted by Kev R E Turnipsecd at I Oak Ridge cemetery Monday at 3 P M in thc presence of a large gathering of relatives and friends. The pall bearers were his fellow officers of the Methodist church: J F Everett. C S Chailin, R K Breeden, ll II Newton, Tom C Weatherly, P A Hodges, J M .hickson and Dr J V Kinney.

MISS CARLISLE BURNED A Bennettsville Girl Had a Narrow Escape at Mullins. Miss Sallie Carlisle, daughter of E S Carlisle, was painfully burned at a school entertainment at Mul lins. She is at home, and has about recovered from the burn and fright. The Mullins Enter prise gives the following account of thc accident: At thc entertainment given at thc school house lust Friday night, a very serious accident happened i nf it; instead of throwing the box from her, she threw it over her head. Her hair caught and blazed over in a moment. Miss Inez Brown and Evan Lewis who were stand ing near by, rushed to her assis tance, and soon extinguished the Hames, but not, however, until her' clothing had caught. The collar of her waist was burned nearly off. Things were very lively for a few moments and great excite ment prevailed, but cool heads soon restored order. The shock was a severe one to Miss Carlisle, and her many friends deeply sympa thize with her. Her physician thinks that there will not be any Cvil effects from thc burns, as they Were not deep. She left Friday night for her hone to spend the Christmas holidays. With Thc Pacific Fleet.
