The negro at Memphis deserved
hanging and could not have escaped it
in the courts, but the conduct of the
mob was a disgrace TO civilization and
q travesty on humanity and the parti-
cipants should be death with as any
other violations of the law. Let the
law the palladium of our liberty, be
respected and thus insure safety and
protection to all.

The furnace when in operation pays
out about $4,000 per week and this is
sadly missed by our laboring classes.
Their attorney s. j. Kirkpatrick in
formes us that the mines may soon be
opened. but that the outside world
must "get right" before they can do
much at the furnace. We hope
though for something encouraging from
the gentlemen who sailed Monday for
London.
Mrs. Edna Harris, wife of DR.. Alex

ago, died Monday at Unaka Springs,

ceeded her through the dark shadow.
Hon. Nat Harris, her son, of Macon,
Ca, was with her when the end came.
She spent most Of her life on Cherokee

she wal universally loved for her pure
christian character. She was a sister
of Landon G. Haines so famous in Ten

sympathy to the bereaved family and
friends. Peace to her ashes.
1t was II pleasure to attend the
services at the Methodist Church Sun
day morning and hear a most excellent
sermon by the Rev. David SulliAs DID,
Of Cleveland, Tenn, DR.. Sullins before
taking his text asked the audience to
excuse him for referring to himself and
then stated that he on that day forty
years ago stood in the same pulpit and
preached to a good audience but that
the audience, with possibly mi or two
exceptions was all gone and this locks
then black had been silvered to white
ness by the noiseless hand of age He
took as his text l cor. Is: 81, 90, For
since by nan came death, by man also
came the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even 10 in
Christ shall all be made alive, preach
ing a sermon full thought put in a
most forceful manner and evincing at
the same time that deep spiritually SO
characteristic Of the man. 1t having
been known that he was going to
preach representatives from the several
denominations were present, making a
good audience, which seemed to in
spire the speaker and to give him more
that wonted liberty in preaching. DR.,
Sullins is beyond the average as a
preacher and as a matter of course was
warmly appreciated by Jonesboro in
telligence. XIV 9a
