Resolutions on the Death of Miss
Eckman.

How often are Gods people constrain-
ed to exclaim, "His ways are not our
ways nor his thoughts as our thoughts"
In his providence God was graciousl y
pleased to have us begin our school in
association with this lovely young lady
of great zeal and energy, giving prom
Use of many days of usefulness In this
interesting and Important work.
The name of Miss Eckman had be-
come familiar in many homes and Es-
PEcIALLY to the pupils Of her own de-
partment.
We, her associate teachers, watched
with interest the progress of her work
which seemed to insure success.
But that same gracious Sod who gave
has taken away. Observation-Disclosures
is no more. In view of that sad event
be 1t resolved
1.That this school recognizes and rec
ords its obligations to God for his grant
ing us even for so short time so worthy
an example of enthusiasm in the school
room.
2. That by the nntimely death of this
young lady we are admonished to
"watch."
3. That a copy of this be sent to the
Russellville DEMOCRAT and a copy be
sent to her parents.
Respectfully submitted,

easily reached from every part OF the
South. The governors of the several
States have appointed full lists of dele

have appointed local committees and
are doing all in their power to make a
success Of the undertaking The fourth

this place, under appointment of Gov

being made at this place, Messrs. G. w.

The delivery embraces about 500 worth
of fine stock in excellent condition.
The Ozone Nursery is located In john
son county, and being practically a
| home institution appeals directly to the
encouragement and patronage of our
people. The proprietors are bona fide
fruit growers, thoroughly versed In ev-
cry detail of the business. AS an evil
, dence of the confidence reposed in them
| it NAV be stated that Mr.. Hinchey has
been chosen President of the Johnson
County Pathological Society, whose
meetings are held regularly and which
have been instrumental in fostering
and developing the interest In this In
dustry which has made Johnson coun-
ty famous for the excellence OF her
fruit. We cheerfully commend the
Ozone Nursery to our people as emil
nently worthy of their patronage.

The majority of the public roads In
this county are in an exeer able condi-
ton. We suppose it would not be con-
tradicted If we were to say they never
were more nearly impossible than they
are at present. This fact naturally
gives rise to the query "What shall we
do about it?" That is difficult ques-
ton to answer, but one thing has been
demonstrated clearly and that is that
the present system of road working is
totally inadequate to the needs OF the
country. The present road law Is de-
deficient in many respects, chief OF
them is the ease with which overseers
shirk their duties and fail In many in
stances to work the roads at all. The
present road law, which at best is but
miserable excuse for one, should be so
amended as to secure more equitable
distribution ofthe burdens ofroad max
ing and especially such safeguards as
will guarantee faithful performance
of his duty on the part of the overseer
or commissioner OF roads. Our repre-
sentative in both branches of the gener-
al assembly can do their constituents
no greater service than using their in
f1uence in behalf OF reform so needful
and important as superior and better
guarded road law than the present one.

Whereas, While we recognize in her
untimely departure the loss of true
and genial friend. an earnest, persever-

woman; one whose Christian goodness
shed cheerfulness and vigor upon all
who came within the circle of her influ-
ence, and whose life is an inspiration
to nobler thoughts and purer actions
yet we bow in humble submission to
the memorable decree of Him who sees
the beginning and the end, taking COM
fort in the anticipation of that grander
reflection that she has gone to her &C.

and unending reunion at eternity's
