SUDDEN DEATH.
    The numerous friends of James Campbell will be pained to hear of his sudden demise, which occurred at an early hour yesterday morning.
    Deceased had been in the employment of Rice and Hastie at the Grand Hotel for quite a time, and retired after enjoying the Queen's Birthday Sports, about 1 a.m., with his friend, Neil Murray, to a cabin they occupied on upper First Street; both parties turned into bed, which was a mattress on the floor.
    When Murray awoke in the morning about 7:30, he found Campbell stiff and cold on the floor. Death had evidently taken place soon after retiring.
    A Coroner's jury, composed of James Brown, foreman; Joseph Tollmire, G. F. Pringle, John Mahrer, Go. M. Shirley and W. J. Smith, viewed the body in the forenoon, and met in the evening at 7.
    Dr. Lewis testified that he had made a post mortem examination of the body during the afternoon and found the liver and other organs much congested; he also found a clot in the heart, which, in his opinion, was sufficient to cause death. The jury, in accordance with these facts, found that the deceased had come to his death by natural causes and that no blame attached to any one. The funeral will take place today.
    Deceased was physically a fine specimen of Canadian manhood, and was well known along the line of the C. P. R. where he was engaged in contracting and other, work for several years before coming north. He was a single man and aged about 48 years.

DEATH OF CAPT. COWPER.
    The news of the sudden and unexpected demise of Captain Jesse William Cowper on Wednesday morning, 21st instant, shocked his many friends in Atlin. The deceased had been camped on the opposite side of the lake for a couple of weeks with Messers. E. J. Thain and W. H. T. Olive and had been suffering for some days with rheumatism and the intention was to bring him over to the Presbyterian hospital for treatment. No immediate danger was apprehended and his partners were assiduous in their attentions.
    About 5 o'clock in the morning Mr. Olive made some remark to the captain, who was in bed, and receiving no answer, went to his couch and found him dead. He had passed away so gently and quietly that Mr. Ole was astounded. Rousing Mr. Thain they did what they could to restore animation, but although the body was still warm, the soul had fled to Him who gave it.
    Mr. Olive at once came to Atlin to notify the authorities, and Constable Heal, accompanied by Dr. Lewis, went over the lake and returned with the body. The cause being evidently heart failure, it is not thought an inquest will be necessary.
