They were with us side by side, , Hot Ions aiio: Now they've pased on withthe tide, in mystery's flow. T'is but a little narrow stream. This passage, death a darkened dream. Jo st as we, across onr River, See the snow-white cone. Almost hear the "Come op hither!" Uod saitb to His own. Angels fly to bear tbeta thither. Where they love and serve forever! Not a ehadow crosses them, In the Heavenly light. In that upper, rarer realm, Service is delight; Might we bot know! God tends them down, To bless the homes from whence the've flown. Eyes are h olden cannot tell What's hid from sight Dare not grieve! But say " 'lis well. In God's pure light" Still we love them none the less, Mrs. Rexford Sum Jackson County. The Ashland Tiding savs: Attnr neys Gas Newbury and Charles Prim Sled a damage suit against Jaokaon conuty in favor of Alice Rexford for the sum of $2229 for injuries suffered ironi being thrown from a bridge on Big ipplegate last Spring. It ap pears from tbe complaint that the plaintiff was crossing the bridge in question and when on the bridge her horse became frightened at a broken j plank in the bridge and backed th bugiT and Mrs. Rexford off the bridge and produced injuries from which she alleges she is still suffering The horse was killed aud th bnsirv damaged.
