Death From a Kick of a Horse Mr. Samuel Lucas, residing in Indiana county, was fatally kicked by a horse on Sabbath morning last, and died from the injuries in two hours afterwards. He had been ill for several years, but had regained his health to enable him to go about. That morning he went for the horse, intending to drive to church, when he was kicked in the stomach, both feet striking him. His wife is an invalid and is reported to be at the point of death. ---------------------------------------------------------- Death of a Former Citizen of Altoona Mr. Ignatias Beiter, a resident of Munster township, Cambria county, and a good old friend of the senior editor of this paper, died at his residence in said township yesterday evening or sometime during the night, aged about 64 years. When we first met the deceased he was a resident of Hollidaysburg, where he worked at boat building for the venerable Samuel Sharer, who, if we mistake not, still survives. From Hollidaysburg he removed to the mountain many years ago, but later in life he spent two or three years in this city, from whence he went back to Cambria county some time last fall, if memory serves us right. He as an honest, hard working man, and a sincere member of the Catholic church. Never did we know a man who more zealously labored to please his Creator and do good to his fellow creatures. He has one son, William, and a daughter, Mrs. Thos. Crawford, living in this city; also, a son-in-law, Mr. Peter Flinn, whose wife died under very distressing circumstances several months ago. May he find rest in a better world, where trouble and sorrow come not. ----------------------------------- Wedding Bells On the 17th inst. Mr. J. E. Cole and Miss J. M. Potter were united in marriage by Rev. Dr. Bell, at the Baptist parsonage. The married couple left in the evening train for Philadelphia to spend a few days, after which they will return to their mountain city home. Mr. Ed Stewart, ticket agent of East Conemaugh, was united in marriage last Saturday evening with Miss Annie Denning, of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart will take up their residence in Conemaugh. Ed is a son of Associate Judge Stewart, of this city. He is a splendid young fellow, and stands well with the company, and with the public in general. He and his young bride are worthy of the best the land affords. ----------------------------------------- Bitten By a Dog A few days ago James Sheridan, a local salesman, had occasion to visit the residence of Charles Crumbaker, 2527 Union avenue. On entering the yard a dog belonging there bit him on the leg, drawing blood. Since that time Sheridan has been ill and anxious about his condition. Dr. J. T. Christy is attending him. Officer McFeely shot the dog yesterday afternoon. It is to be hoped that nothing serious will result from the biting, though at present the man's leg is very much swollen. ------------------------ Hunting her Brother Yesterday afternoon an old lady named Siebert, and probably about 75 years of age, arrived in the city from the east. After wandering about a few hours, she sought the Mayor's office to learn the whereabouts of Theodore Siebert, who, she says, lives here. She came from Baltimore. The Mayor was unable to direct the woman, but will try to look the man up. The old lady is a German, and she says her brother was a bird cage maker in the old country. She has probably forgotten his address.
