MAI. j. II. A. SMITH.

MAJ' De H. As ShllH'

July 2Sth 1917, died July 9th 1879. lie
was the tenth of twelve children all of
whom had passed away before him. He
entered the Confederate army and was
elected Captain in 1864, soon after was
promoted 10 the rank of Major, in which
position he served until the surrender.
About the close Of the war he made u

he was elected to the Senate. He was
married Oct. %, 1872, to Miss Florence
Gertrude Hutchinson, of Richmond Va.
whom he leaves in charge Of four inter-
esting children. He was man Of fine
intellect, good impulses, popular man
ners, and answering integrity. Though
in bad health for some time past, his
death was unexpected. His last mo-
ments were spent in conversation with
his wife. He expressed his gratitude
for her unwavering attention and tender
devotion during his long illness. He
said there was no one for whom he en-
tertained other than the kindest feelings
and desired to be forgiven by any to
whom he might have given pain or
trouble. lie went to bed where his chill
dren were sleeping, looked sadly and
thoughtfully in each face; "my dar-
lings said he, some day you will know
how much | love YOU" He again took his
place on the bed and resumed conversa-
ton with his wife, talked very rapidly
for few moments suddenly he ceased
and began to quiycr like reed in the
water, then followed low moan, n few
short breaths and all was over-Mai,
Smith was dead.--On Tuesday the Sth
inst, with tears and sadness, kind
and devoted friends laid him in the
grave there to await the sounding Of
the last trump.
'rhen let the last loud trumpet sound
And bid our kindred rise;
Awake yc nations underground,
Ye saints, ascend the skies"

Labor to keep alive in your breast

BROTHER GEORGE became noted as
a moral agitator ever after his success

we need labor much more to rub and

MEMPHIS RUINED FOREVER FOR

Idnche: Who ever heard of u city of
40, 900 to 90, 600 inhabitants without u
sewer system? 1t Is the human filth
in the earth that produces the germ
for fevers. Did you ever think Of the
fact that there are fully 200, 900 tons Of
human filth in the old and new privy
holes in this city? This permeates
through the earth, and what is not
drawn out by the heat Of the sun finds
its way into the cisterns, two thirds Of
which are, more or less, so affected.
SO, what of this filth we do not breathe
we are forced to drink.
You may wash your streets every
day with COLOGNE or rose-water and 1T
will do no good, for that merely re-
moves the surface GlLh. Unless our
people do look these facts square in
the face, and go TO work In earnest
and get at the bottom Of tho trouble.
she will become an eyesore to the
country and plOgue.spot on the face
OF the earth.
There IL but one remedy, and that
is thorough sewer system, and no
city, great or small, Is 40 W II and nat
uroily d'alned as Memphis. In thi-
respect nature has been more than
bOuntirul.
Now, these are facts that our people
had rs we'll think over and quit tink-
ering, but go to work to do something
that will DO of some permanent good.

Is 1T ANY wonder that newspapers
are bought up by the brokers, when by
their aid they can make millions in a
day or week? This was done in New
York last week through Jay Gould's
Tribune, Belmont's World, and the aid oi
the Times and Herald. The Phlladel-
phia brokers reaped large harvest, but
their papers like their stock board do not
make such an open show of the gambling
tricks as do the New Workers. The lat
ter treat the whole affair as a game and
the lucky dogs among them are expected
TO chuckle over their acquisitions. II
is said that Jay Gould made million OIL
two and another broker named Keene
put the triae of three millions in his
safe before the close of the banks OH Sat
urday.
