A Yeung Lady of Maysille Falls Inte the Kiver ami Drowns. IT OCCUMIEI) AT MANCHESTER OHIO. A Sail Incident Connected With a l'leSMire Excur sion of Yeuug I'eeple en tbe Kher. A sad incident of n pleasure trip. A young lndy falls from a wharfbeat and drowns with these nreund powerless te aid her. Last night about 8 o'clock the little steamer Laurance left our wharf with n large crowd of ladies, gentlemen nnd children en beard, whose minds were tilled with joyful anticipations of pleasure in the trip te Manchester and return. The party consisted of the Christian Endeavor Societies and their friends who had availed themselves of the oppor tunity for an evening outing en the river, an innocent nmusemeut that has been very popular this summer. As full of life and spirits ns anyone in the gay party was Miss Emma Brennan Weed, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. James Weed. The ruu of twelve miles te Manchester we3 made without mishap or accident, nnd nil had enjoyed the delightful trip te their hearts content. Arriving at Manchester It wns an nounced that the beat would stay twenty minutes before the home Journey was commenced. The little beat was tied securely te the wiiarf, and about twenty of the party prepared te go en a short walk nbeut the little town. The doers of the wharfbeat were net opened and one had te walk around the guards of the beat in order te reach the shore. Miss Weed, with a crowd of her com panions had stepped onto the wharfbeat and reached the upper end, where a turn te the left Is made. The child kept en straight ahead. There was a cry of warning from some one, but it enme tee late. She had made the fatal step and lest her balance and fallen into the wnter, which is several feet deep. The current nt that point is very swift nnd she passed immediately under the wharfbeat. There was no earthly chance te lend a helping hand. The child herself had no chance te make a struggle for her life. She made no out cry, and it is supposed she never rose te the surface. An unknown here of Manchester jumped into the river in nu nttempt te rescue her, but his efforts were unavail ing. Immediately below the wharfbeat the Manchester ferryboat and a coal bnre were lying, and under all of these the body must necessarily have passed before it could rise. The body has been receveted nnd wns brought te this city this merniug. The funeral arrangementsihad net been announced when The Lkdeeu went te press. Miss Emmn, nged thirteen and n half years, was the youngest daughter of our esteemed citizen J. James Weed and his estlmable wife, who have the hcartfelt sympathy of everyone. She wn3 a child of particularly bright dispo sition, nnd, by her geutle ways and lady like manners, had wen the love of all who knew her. Hen. W. O.

On the 1st of July he sold enough lambs te realize ?290 32. This makes the total sales from the fleck 8423 32, or within $9 72 of what the original fleck cost him. He has 80 ewes and 8 lambs left, or very nearly as many as he had in the outset, which cost him, practically, but SJ8 72, beyond the expense of keeping, which is net very large if one hns plenty of land.

The Ledger has frequently called attention te the fact that the Treasury of Kentucky was being depicted and the taxpayers of the state unnecessarily and heavily burdened through Democratic mismanagement of state affairs. It has net been necessnry, for le these many years, for any Democratic editor te go beyond Frankfort If he was In search for material denunciatory of violated premises; yet they have sought te avoid home matters by directing their readers te what was being done elsewhere. At last, however, comes the erllcinl statement that Kentucky hns an empty Treasury, and it comes from no ether source than from the Treasurer himself. Here it is: Louisville, Kv., July 1st. State Treasurer Hale announced yesterday that no mere pnyments could be made upon demands en the state for some time. Legislator Crew of Hartferd drew out $500 of his pay in order te get married and no money was left. About ene mil lion dollars of school funds and ether preferred demands will be due In Novem ber nnd all the money will be allowed te accumulate te meet these. It will be three months probably before payments are resinned.

Over in the corner was a large aud pompous looking Individual who looked as if he hid never taken an intoxicating drink in his life nnd who seemed te ie disgusted with the con dition of the newcomer, who roplied impatiently: " Ne, there nre no scats here ' for a drunkard." The man at the deer braced himself up a little as if Jils dignity had been insulted, choked down a hicceugh nnd iu a half maudlin way Bald: " Well, I am a little drunk and I may be n drunkard because I am a little drunk, but I'll get ever this sprce iu the. raeruin'j if I get a scat and get home.
