 Darling Love was born August 18th, 1915, in Cabarrus County. N. c. Mar ried the daughter of Daniel and Mary Little, of the same county, on the 3d day of April, 1883. Emigratcd to Ar kansas Tn 1888.

 The last few months of his life were spent in unusual solemnity and careful reading of Gods word; would some net live long and you will be left be- hind"
 In the absence of his pastor his death bed was attended by a Baptist minister but his illness was so short and SO se. were as to deprive family and friends oi the blessed privilege of eonvsrsing with him about his departure and offering him words of Christian comfort in his trying hour as was their wish 10 do.
 He left bereaved wife and five chill dren to mourn his loss, but praying God for the hope that their loss is his gain, they bow submissive to Jehovah $ chastening rod and say ''Thy will be done"

There ia no intimation of any hrs Tn, or about this hell as recorded in 2nd Pet. 2:4 yer. nor is there any information that they are suffering for their sias, or will suffer until the judgement.
 As to the other hell. Hades, there is but little chance of fire there. ua- less you are buried in volcano, Then, "hot as he'll" "dry a hell'' Ego to hell' are terms very poorly expressed by the words Hades or Tartarus.
 If any or your readers desire te express themselves after thc above lose habit, let them bear in mind that "GEHENNA OF FIRE" IS in harmony with the revised versisn, and accords with the tenor of the teaching of the word that will be fulfilled to jit and little.

vs6 at that place that the citizens around Red Bluff had taken the law into their own hands, and had lynch cd oRe of the negroes. We have not, however, seen anything in the pa pers to that effect, and suppose that it was mistaken rumor which sprang ss a kind of spontanuity from the excited state of feeling over the atrocious crime.
 Since writing the above we learn that the hanging was done to make Brown reveal the particulars of the murder and the parties interested in it, and was only done to obtain this information.

THE MURDER OF ROBERT
 YONIEY

Our readers are already acquaint- ed with the fact of the murder of Mir. Rebt Yonlsy, formerly resi- dent of Pope county, and \ brother to Mrs. c. W. Chapman, of our town. The murder, . most cruel one, was perpetrated at Red BluS on the l.. K. and Pine Blaff k R., some thirty miles below Little Rock, on the Sth of August last by three ne gross named Whit Brown, Charles Scott and Ben Reynolds, who rob bed MT. Yonly of s250 in money.
 It is with pleasure that we record the capture of the murderers by de teetive Sib Bayse, Of Little Rock, who has been working up the case since it's occurrence, assisted by constable Wsshmood. The Gazette says of Brown that he was known as a desperate character in Little Rock, and that he had gone hand in hand with crime in that city. The cap. ture Is thus described in the Gazette: {:
 "When the two men arrived at Browns door, Bayss remarked as he drew his revolver: Hold the lantern, I'll break in on him Throwing his weight against :hs door .hs old boards yielded, and Bsvss sprsng in- to the room, bounded to sn old bed of straw, and ss Brown attempted to rise, placed his pistol against him, saying, Lie down or I'll kill you. Here Wash. put the hand-cuffs en him Scott was in sa adjoining room, but before he could rub his eyes sufficiently 10 see himself as others saw him, the muzzls of pis- tol was placed against the top of his head also"
 From Browa the whereabouts of Reynolds was obtained, and the officers wisely made puck work of his arrest also. So that all three of the williams were nicely taken n, and are now in custody where they await the stern demands Of justice.

 The weather may be extremely hot, and the much needed showers of ram fail to come, and the grain and cotton crops fall short, but still there is one consolation, that is. the mortgage crop never fails.

CONCERNING HELL" "
Editors Russellyills Democr

Editers Russellvills Democrat:
 "Go to He'll" isa very common expression with s certain class of people not very prolific in IDEAS, and who have very poor idea Of this phrase when they use it. Since the new version of the New Testament came out. find that some are try ing to change che phrases to con form, as they SUPPOSE, to the new version. but they have failed to com prehend the new version. Perhaps the writer may be able to set those righ. who err on this subject, and save them from the using of such absurd terms as are gaming popu- larity.
 Then be it known, that in the Greek testament, according to the learned, there are THREE different words, that in King James version of the Scriptures, are translated HELL The fiIst is GrHKSsA. The EncyclePedia Of Religious knowledge defines it to be The Valley st Hia- nam, or the valley of the son of Hin nam.
 Prof. c. L. Ives, of Yale college, says the Greek. GKHKSsA, is inva- riably and properly translated HkLL. IL is tue same ss Tsphst of the Old Testament both names of the val ley of Hinnam, near Jerusalem, whose fires were ever burning to destroy the refuse Of that city, and hence i. is ussd as an apprepriste name for the final burning at the end of the world" This word ir the old versioon was rendered HELL, in the new il is HKLL or YIRE.
 The next is HADEs, in the old yer sion HELL, in ths nsw Hades, un translated. The Encyclopedia de- fines Hsdes, thus, (gr from priva- tive, and IDEIs, 10 sss), THE rsvIsA- BLx WORLD.
 Prof Wilson says Hsdes. literally, that which is ia darkness, hidden, invisib!s or obscure Essop Diag gla,s, part 2nd sags 57.
 The American Bible Cnian rem dsrs It "undergrsund world"
 Webster defines Hades, the region of the dead.
 Ia Acts 2:3l. it is plain that the Hadss, hell had reference 10 the grave where Christ lay until his res urrsc.ion. We find the same word HAdes in l Cor. I5:55 translated in the old ysrsioa CRAVE. "OA grave where is thy victory"
 The third word translated hell is found but once ia ths Scriptures and that IS TARrAkrs. This seems 10 he the hell assigned 10 angels that sinnsd, as s sort of prison bounds, or plaes oi confinement in which they arc reserved until the "dsy of judgement.

 --Business continues lively on the public school question, and more especially so on Saturday and the reports from teachers are encour- aging. The interests of the cause is more closely looked after by the Directors and the attendance of chil- dren is better than heretofore, though not as good as it should be. Some of the districts are holding back their money for . winter or spring school and where comfortable school houses have been provided, it certainly is the msst proper tune for the public schools to be taught in this country and not in the hot months of July and August, when all other schools are enjoying their vacations. It Is ali we'll enough for the teacher in hot weather, but is bad for the children and the tax payers whose duty 1t ia to furnish the whsrewith.
 ODDS AND ENDS.
 Henry Hendelman, sheriff of Union county, Illinois, was in town one day last week. He came with proper authority for . prisoner in the Dover jail, who is wanted in that state to answer the charge of murder committed in that State. The gentle shower on last Monday morning was hailed with delight. falling gently settled the dust without injury to the feecy sta pie. .. The Gravel Hillites to- wit P. J. Rollow and family, Prof, Pee blss and family, B. F. Bavliss and family, and R. B. Hogins and fami- ly, have all returned and report . pleasant tune at the Spring. Your correspondent is able to report another three days turn with the chllls, though can't say that he feels muchly better by the operation. The labcrs Q: the week being ended, and feeling somewhat the worse of wear, retired to my bed room at an early hour, and was soon waited away to the dream-land, backing in the smiles of 2 black eyed angel who inhabits this land of Pope, where even the geese in thelr merrymsnt quack to one another Sweet Ar ksn-saw."

Alter playing . few peices rss invited in by MT. kirchof and treated to repas: of cake and lemonade at the hands of Miss Hal lie Rankin and Miss Stella Dunbar, when they bid adieu for other parts of the iowa and their music was heard floating on the breeze until a late hour at night.

 Mir. Shepard Poyntsr is erecting and nearing completion, a handsome and pleasant residence on the lot formerly occupied by his father, w. L. Poyntsr, deceased. Messrs. Eurforth & Casey, excellent me- chanics and clever gentlemen, have erected a large and commodious va. gon and black smith shop on the loi formerly owned by Msssrs. War rsn & Hobbs, and have in process of erection two other nice buildings. pr. J. L. Kirksey has added to and enlarged hls residence, making it a handsome, comfortable and very pleasant one. The court house has been renovated anew, is we'll braced through it's center. The clerks Of fee enlarged and the whole interior of the building neatly and nicely painted, and enclosed within an eight square plank fence, with four gates as entrances, North, East, South and West, all whitewashsd and painted which gives to Dover new life and attraction. MT. J. B. Eau sstte and family, with several lovely daughters, are recent acquisitions to the town, having purchased and completely renovated, pspsred and painted up the house formerly known ss the Sheppard house, ma king it one of the best in the place. He has also erected and has nearly ready for business, a large and com medious steam cotton gin, sufficient ly capacious to shelter, weigh and unload eight or ten wagons without the use of baskets.

A Runaway Coming Back to the
Starting Point.

A story of mule which kicked
itself back to the starting point was
published in the Virginia Chronicle
the other day. An incident of much
the same nature occurred in Dayton
a few days ego. DIR. Brierly's mare
was tied to post in front of the
Union Hotel, when the horse har-
messed to Sims's delivery wagon
backed against her. The mare there
upon broke her hitching strap and
started down Pike street on a run.
She did not go over hundred yards,
however, before she swung around
aud came back to her hitching- post,
where she stopped. Her bride was
badly demoralized, and old Mr..
Maxwell, who was knocked down
by one of the buggy wheels, was
some what scared, but otherwise no
damage was done.

During his recent stay in Dayton
" Young Joe" Douglass, of Virginia,
came to the office of the TIMES to
consult an Encyclopaedia. He was
informed that the Office copy was
kept at home, in the editors private
library. He expressed surprise at
this, az he believed the work to be
an indispensable requisite to every
newspaper office, and added :" have
a copy at my rooms in Virginia. /
can spare it, rs | am seldom there.
| will order it sent to you" The
next day Mr.. Douglass left for Mason
Valley, and the incident related above
was forgotten until a few days ago,
when one of the stages of Dallas's
line stopped in front of the office,
and tie driver unloaded four large
packages of books which proved to
be complete set of volumes of the
American Encyclopedia, handsome
ly bound in half-Russial Thanks to
Mr.. Douglass's mupificent liberality
the editor is now fully prepared to
discuss the most abstruse questions
in science and art. In future, when
the readers of the TIMES see such ar
ticles in the paper they must not
form the opinion that the editor is a
very learned man, but, rather, be.
lieve that Mr.. Douglasss liberality
! induced their production.
