Trilnuu, in Ju ly, contained the following notice of the death of Xa thanCook, on the I7tb of that month. The deceas ed was a negro, formerly the slave of G. L. Jacqoes, of this Township, when he Bred in Washington County, Maryland. Everybody who knew Mr. Jacques, knew "Old Xase," as the negro was uniTer saUy called. There are several errors in the Tnb ttn notice. When his former master, Harblne, died, Mr. Jacques' father bought Xsse,w and when the elder Mr.Jacqued died, and the estate was di vided, "Xase1 and his sou Charley feU to the share of George I. Jacques. As far as treatment was con cerned, and management about the farm, it was a question whether "Xase" or Mr. Jacques was the slave. When the Rebellion broke out, and the ne gro began to grow restless, Mr. Jacque told hi slave they might go, whenever they felt like it, lie waa formerly a Whig, and then a Itepublican, and never bothered himself over the slavery ques tion. "Xase" did go once or twice, and returned again ; but finally he and his son Charley located at Johnston, Paw, where they worked in a tannery, and when the old man died : Xatha Cook. On Saturday evening, died In Conemaugh Borough, Mr. Xathan Cook, a colored man, who ha been a resident of this place since 1872. He was born a slave in asbington County Maryland, near the village of Clear hpnng, and a few years later his master, who was named lLarbine, died, when he was sold to tieorge L Jacques, a planter in the same vicinity, with whom he remained untd the Emancipation Proclamation waa issued. He married when quite young his wife being a widow named Gibbs, the mother of the colored man who met his death here several months ago, from a tsdft in the hands of Andrew Malatt, a1o colored. The result of their union was six children, two of whom, Mr Charles Cook and his sister, reside in this citv. Af ter becoming a freedman, Mr. Cook worked for a time at Clear Spring and in Hagerstown, until the time that he moved to Johnstown, and he was em- doved at Kosensteel's tannery all along, at grinding tarlc and doing other laboring work, up until four weeks ago, w hen fatal illness seized him. Mr. Chsrles Cook was born in slavery, in l&H, under Jacques, and soon after the breaking out of the warj Its foIun teered in the Union army, with the full permission of his master, of whom he speaks as a kind Christian frntleman, who was good to his human chattels. lis former owner is now a farmer in Kansas, and Mr. Cook frequently corresponds with hiiu-'AlaJge numlier of both white and colored people tamed ml at the funeral, Sunday etcniug. The remtins wero- interred in Sandyvale. J , Death or Edward Hattok We lat week ? poke of the accidental death of Edward I lay km, but at the time of going to press, had receiied no particu lars. They are as follows : On WcdncsdaynrornfiSs. he and George Botkm went to EI wood forsamf, each dining a team, and young Hay ton taking, hi shot gun along, with the expectation of getting un ORrwf tuuity to shoot some duck They got their load of sand, and were on their way home, a short distance east of Wathena. Hay ton's team was in advance, and his gun was standing between his legs, the bar rel resting against his shoulder. At the place men tioned, the wagons fuus from the dirt road on to the rock road, the place being somewhat rough and side- ling It is supiKMted that the jolting of the wagon caused the gun to slip down with the muzzle against his body, the lock striking against something, caus ing the gun to discharge. At any rate. Botkin heard the report, and saw young Hayton thrown toward the back end of the wagon, and heard him utter a cry. Botkin topied his team, and ran forward to the other wagon as quickly as psiblr, but when ho got there, Hayton was dead. The charge of shot had passed through his heart, and lodged in his body. loung Hayton was some ICor 17 years of age. His funeral took place I nday afternoon.

They became frightened at a passing locomotive, ran away, and threw Mr. Harding from the wagon, breaking a rib, and brubung him otherwise so badly, that he has not lcen able to be moved home yet. We trust he will soon be among as again. Little Hugh Craig has been lying very low, with hemorhage of the kidneys, but at this writing Is feel ing some better, and hopes are entertained of his speedy recovery. The sad accident of young Hayton we will not say much about, as we have been unable to learn full particulars in regard to his untimely death. It is only one of the many accident that happen by fire arms earned in wagons. As far as we learn, he was a young man respected by all who knew him. Mrs. James A.

Prairie Grove Items There are n few cases of diphtheria in this neigh borhood. aSerersl of our farmers have sold some of their wheat. Good bye to the threshing machines, fur another year. A large herd of cattle passed through here, recent ly, and did much damage to the corn and wheat fields, as the fences were not good enough to prevent them. Most of the farmers have sold their hogs the price having advanced a few rents. 3fissMolhe Gray has secured the Cyan's Station sihool. Miss Mattie Darns is .pute sick, with pneumonia fever. Last Friday, while Mr. Welton, of East Xorway, was sitting on his sulky, near the depot, talking to the agent, a train came rushing down the track ; his horse became frightened, and backed npon the track. All efforts to git him off the track were in vain. At the last moment, Mr. Welton jumped from his seat, and left the horse to its fate, for it was imjtossible to get htm off the track. The engine struck the horse, and broke its leg, and sent the sulky flvisg scTeral feet.

The home talent did not bare ninch to say, but the whole thing went along nicely. The Larson boy, who was hurt In a sorghum mill, was taken to Atehim,-Tuesday. I think this was not necessary, as onr doctors here and at Doniphan could have done the ease justice, no doubt. Miss Mary Messenger Is teaching school In the district just below Geary, and will give aUsfaetion. Uiss Messenger is quite a smart yonng lady, and has the energy that will sneered. The saw-mill started np, this week, and native lumber will be plenty here, for some time. The last frrexe caught a great many appleo on the trees.

Miss Mollie Gray commenced a school at the Hoo per's Ford school house, on Monday of this week. The District is to be congratulated In securing the services of Miss Gray, as her qualifications for teach ing arc of a superior order Our grain buyer, Mr. Welton, attempted to cross tho railroad, on Friday last, in front of a moving 4 ram, but old "two-twenty wasnt equal to the emergency, and the consequence was, a dead horse and a sulky transformed into half a dozen bycicles, but Welton wasn't a bit hurt, as it would take noth ing less than a thunderbolt to hurt him. Almost an accident occurred, and quite a fright was given, a few mornings since, at one of the neigh bors. A yonng lady was practicing attitudes before th glass, with what she thought was an unloaded pistol, but it was loaded, and went off, shattered the glass, murdered the attitude, and frightened the lady so badly that she will nevrr want to see anoth er pitol, nor hear tell of an attitude. It is supposed a burglary was attempted south of here, Nundar night. A window pane was removed from the window. The family think the wind blew it out, but as a suspicious looking individual from about Atchison was seen about the premUes late in the r.emng, more than likely it was aa surmised. The railroad is the dividing line at thu place, be tween the Hreney and Shaner hosts.

Twoboi, last week; one at Mr. Huberts, of this place, and one at Tony Urock's, three miles south of here. We went to Tony's, and bad a boss time. The amount of wheat raised in this vicinity was never before equaled. A few of the yards threshed liateyuldcd as follows: J. Delaney, twelve hundred bushels; Graj brothers, thrre thousand bushels; John Albtrs, fifteen hundred bushels; and others, as great and a greater numWr of bushels, whose fig urrs we faded to get. Several steam thmhera have been in this neigh borhood, this fall; but it is believed onr veteran thresher. Major Uobbius, with his tcn-hose power, has Itratcn any of them, having threshed altogether about twenty three thousand bushels. Our teacher, M. L. hdwanls, fs giung the best of satisfaction. He now has an enrollment of fifty eight pnpds. The Agent at this plaee has a bail case of hunting on hand 4. hen atked, the other day, what he had killed, he noid he had not had time to kill an vthiug yet, as he had only hunted a couple of weeks. John Lyon, Esq , of tho finn of Harwi &. Co., of Atchison, is spending a few days at home. Some parties attempted to herd a lot of cattle in the lane, along the farm of Thomas Lvons, a few nights since. Three hundred of them broke into the field. The parties refused to pay damages, when Lddie Lyons very promptly penned twenty brad of the stock, which brought the fellows to time. Threatening snow, at present writing X speak of this through the columns of the Chief, for fear It will not be found out other iw. Tmu. Urenner Gab e hear no complaint from any one of hard tunes, which is evidence that we need no change, since eery1ody has large bills. It is not nrccssary for me to sar that corn gather ing has commenced, and a good yield, etc., for at least a half dozen more scnblers will tell you all about it. The new church near Brenner is about complet ed, and ere long we shall bate a big revival, and if it makes any one better or widens thought on any of those old fosihzcd religions theories. It will be wor thy acquisition. Otherwise, if knowledge enionatcs from its sacred walls in the same old channels, the world will lte none the better for it. I- ugene Hinckley Is our station agent now, and G. V. Haganian and Frank W elton are our grain mer chants; and, by the way, Brenner Is no slouch of a grain station. Hagaman has built a grain bouse here, and we hear there Is going to le another one soon. Frank McLin has the los yield of wheat, so far W bushels of wheat to the acre, and 1,200 bushels of it. Pretty good fur one hand and team, besides 40 acres of corn. We hare a doctor inside af the limits of our vil lage. Dr. W, X. 1 lambleton. of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, has permanently located here, and bought a farm. He seems to he a man of large experience, both In dentistry and medicine. He has not signified his in tention to practice either, but I look for him soon to give you an ad. Also, a Mr. AL Dickens ha bought Mr. Burns' farm pner, M.500. We have not learned whether he is the novelist, or who the Dickens he is, only we know he is all right, Because he is one of Joe Ilea old chums, and has skinned lot of mules in Colora do. The railroad lines running to the destitute West, allow supplies to go free. If sent through the AM So cieties; but if one has a friend there who need aid, and he wants to send It to him direct, they charge him more for freight than the goods are worth.
