Sailliiir.v Drops Demi In Front of Young A merleu F.nulue House. One of the saddest and most sudden deaths that has occured in this city in a long time was that of Mr. H. R. Sedbury, who dropped dead in front of Young America engine house last night. An alarm offlre was sounded a few minutes after 8 o’clock. Mr. Sedbury was at the Georgia Home corner at the time and ran hurriedly toward the engine house. When within a few steps of the front door he suddenly fell to the sidewalk. Sev eral young men saw him fUll and two or three of them ran at once for Dr Grimes. When Dr. Grimes reached Mr. Bedbury he examined him careftilly and found that he was dead. The re mains were carried into the engine house, and were shortly afterward taken to the home of the family. Mr. Bedbury was one of the oldest members of Young America, and was for a long time the en gineer. He was n faithful and enthusiast^ fire man. and it was his devotion to this voluntary work that final’y cost him his life. He had been affected by heart disease for some time, and un doubtedly the exertion of running and the ex citement caused a flow of blood to the heart,which caused death. Mr. Sedbury was at one time a member of the police force and was u good officer. He was a warm-hearted and honorable man and had a host . of friends who will learn of his death with sor- , row.

The* Kiiliclits of Labor. The Knights Of Labor held a mass meeting last night and endorsed Hon. W. A. Little for the legislature, and determined to oppose the re- election of Hon. T. J. Chappell. They dbcided to ask Dr. J. N. Gilbert to make the race against Mr. Chappell, and appointed a committee to on 11 upon him and urge him to run. Owing to the lateness of the hour at which we received this Information, we were unable to learn whether Pr. Gilbert will allow the use of his name. A Knight of Lnborsakl last night that the knights did not like Mr. Chappell’s record as a legislator, and would not vote for him if they can induce any one to oppose him. t Happily Mated, At the residenco of the bride’s mother in ly, Ain., yesterday afternoon at 1 o’clock George F.
