So itis everywhere ! A newspaper with wide circula- tion is very closely scanned by outside parties. Merchants and others look to see who are adyei- tising and sometimes determite whether or not to give orders or. correspond with houses in a city, through the appearance of .the papery: A newspgper is suppased to-be,a prettysgeod reflectionr of the town or city itself.

Laura and Jennie, aged seven and five’ years, daughters of Joseph and Lucy Melton, of Berdley, Union county, Ky-, were playing hide and seek Tuesday with three other children, and during the play the sisters enter- ed the cellar. Seaing a large, old-fashioned trunk in one corner they raised the lid and jamped inside. The top fell and closed with a tight spring lock. Two of their play- mates had hidden beneath a bed in an upper room. The remain- ing tot, who was acting 48 spy, soon found the bed room girls, but all search for Laura and Jen- nie proved fruitless, as they had completely overlooked the cellar trunk. At the time both parents were visiting a neighbor and did not return for three hours: When they learned of the sudden disap- pearance of the children a search was instituted, but almost anoth- er hour elapsed betore the father theaght of the old trank.* The children were found dead, locked in each other’s arms.
