Fd 'The death of Mrs. Salome Shucker, which has been anticipated for some months, took place at het late residence | in Royalton, November 10th, 1896. Her funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. H. B. Mason, at the Bap- tist church, Dysingers, and attended by numerous kindred and friends. She was one of a family of, eleven children, all of whom but one brother, are gone. She was born in Lehi County, Pa., and when six months old moved to Seneca County, N. Y. At 18 years of age she married Mr. Charles Schucher living in the vicinity, and then made their home until 1846, when she moved to Royalton, N. Y. She has lived here now for forty years. To them were born seven children, six of whom survive her, Her husband preceded her death by less than 20 months. The young may die the old must. About six years ago her mind commenced fail- ing, for four years she has been helpless and for three years hopelessly insane. She was a good neighbor a devoted mother, and her deep affliction has been a sore trial to her as well astto those who tenderly ministered to her needs. She now rests from her labors and her ; works follow her. I Edwin A. Charlton of Brodhead, Wis- consin, departed this life Saturday, Nov. ; 14, 1896, after a severe and protracted illness, which was endured with Chris- ! tion fortitude and resignation in hope of | a life free from pain and care in the great hereafter. In his early manhood Mr. Charlton , came to Lockport, a stranger and be- ' came principal of our Union School. He soon proved himself an educator of the highest rank and the school was never more prosperous than under his care. His devotion to his pupils was constant, no sacrifice was counted by him, too great if the interests of the school de- manded it. He was finally obliged to relinquish his work here and seek a , less laborious position on account of | failing health. He filled important and honorable po- sitions in schools at Schenectady and ; Auburn in this state, and was finally i called to the principalship of the State ' Normal School at Platteville, Wiscon-: sin, a position of great strain upon his health and strength was too great and he was obliged to retire from his chosen ; profession. After a short period of rest I he turned his attention to journalism ; and assisted by his wife, edited and . published the Brotherhood Indepen-. dent, a weekly paper in the pleasant: village of Brodhead, Wisconsin, More than 80 years ago he was united in mar- - riage to Miss Helen E. Holmes, a daughter of the late Judge Alfred Holmes of this city, a most estimable lady, who with untiring devotion shar- ed all his labors,, trials, successes and defeats until the end came. There were born to them a son and daughter. On one of their visits bere the boy was seized with mental sickness and they were forced to lay his body away in our beatiful Glenwood, and return grief stricken, to their desolate western home. 'The shock to the father, whose life seemed bound up in that of his boy, was terrible and cast a permanent shadow on his life. The daughter still lives to cheer and comfort her mother ° in their great affliction. { Many men and women here, in middle | life will remember with gratitude and © affection Mr. and Mrs. Charlton, in con- ° , nection with their school days and their , sympathies will go out to the bereaved widow and fatherless daughter, in their far away western home.

ONE BAY OF REGISTRY. ATTORNEY GENERAL HANCOCK GIvyES AN OPINION THAT IS ALL REQUIRED FOR AN ELECTION - CHARTER ELEC- TION HELD AT A TIME OTHER THAN THE GENERAL ELECTION. QUITE A SAVING. The following dispatch is of great in- terest to residents of this city: 'The following opinion of the Attorney General of this State will be read with interest by the voters of this city and also interests the election inspectors whose salary wil} be greatly diminished if the opinion of the Attorney General holds good: A \Attorney General Hancock has re- ceived many inquiries concerning the elections held at a time other than at a general election. He has written an opinion in which he says: \I am of the opinioin that a special or charter, elec- tion in or for a city or village contain-, ing 5,000 inhaitants or more, held at a time other than when the general elec- tion tikes place, must be preceded by but one meeting of the Board of Inspec- tors, which shall be had on: the second Saturday before the day of such elec- tion. Lam of the opinion, also, that at such meeting the inspectors are re- quired to use the registers which were used at the preceding general election, correcting the same as the law directs, and adding thereto only the names of such qualified electors as appear in per- son before them. on that day.\ In case this opinion holds, and there is not much question that it will, this city instead of paying 52 inspec- tors of election $728 for four days ser- vices as boards of registry, would have to pay but $182 for one days service, thereby saving the city some $546 in wages of the inspectors besides the coal that would otherwise be burned in the election booths and other incidental ex- penses. , It will also be a great convenience to trouble of registering, provided they at- tended to that matter this fall which nearly every voter did.

Crowell and R. T. Smith were discontinued from the list of local preachers. A plan of work has been arranged by which the whole dis- trict is to be divided into nine sub-dis- tricts; certain charges are to be grouped under a chairman who is to call to- gether the pastors, and plans are to be made for the furtherance of revival efforts, the pastors and charges co- operating. * The following were named as chair- men of the sub-districts: L. L. Rogers, W. J. West, W. L. Warner, D. 0. Cham- berlayne, Joseph Morrow. Loren Stiles, W. A. Harris, J. H. Voght, C. A. Wod- worth,. Another and a new feature is a book exchange. A committee, C. EB. Millspaugh, L. D. Watson, Loren Stiles was appointed to select a list of books which the pastors are to club together and buy and circulate among them- selves. These books are to be made the basis of a minister's meeting to be held in the spring and probably at Spencer- port. An invitation was extended for the next district conference to be held in Sanborn.

Mr. Hawke lives just west of Dusky Park on the Ridge Road. Mr. Hawks had a team of colts hitched to his apple wagon. After driving up to the place where the ridge turns into the Olcott road at > Wright's Corners he met a thrashing en- gine. His team became unmanageable and started to run. Mr. Hawks did all he could to stop them but could not. 'The team ran faster and faster til the foot of the toll gate hill was reached, when the harness parted from the wag- on. Mr. Hawks had hung onto the lines and when the harness parted he was jerked out onto the road, and drag- ged quite a distance before he could un- wind the lines from his hands. The team was stopped by the tollgate keep- er. He then went back down to the bottom of the hill and found Mr. Hawks. laying on the ground unconscious He then did not know just what to-do with .the team as he thought Mr. Hawks needed all of his attention, but at this time some men who had seen the run- away pass the hotel at Wright's Cor- ners, who had got into a rig te follow it came up and Mr. Hawks was taken back to the hotel at the Corners.
