one day tho miners delving In The earth
suddenly came on the body Of that young
man, which had all those years been
kept from-the air and looked just as it
was the day of the calamity. Strong,
manly, noble youth, he sat there looking
as on the day he died. But no one
recognized the silent form.
After awhile they called the Oldest In
habitants to come and see if any one
could recognize him. a woman with
bent form and her hair snowy white with
years came last, and looking upon the
silent form that had been SO completely
preserved gave bitter cry and fell into
long swoon. It was the one to whom
half century before she was to have
been welded, looking then just as when
in the days of their youth their affec-
tons had commingled. But the emotion
Of her soul was too great for mortal en-
durance, and two days after those who
so years before were to have joined
hands in wedlock were at last married
in the tomb, and side by side they wait
for the resurrection.
My friends, we shall come at last upon
those Of our loved ones who long ago
halted in the journey Of life. They will
be as fair and beautiful-yea, fairer and
more beautiful than when we parted
from them. 1t may be old age looking
upon childhood oryouth. Oh, my Lord,
how we have missed them! Separated
for 10 years OF 90 years or 90 years, but
together at tho last. Together at the
last. Just think Of it! viii 1t not be

The Cantata and CoIurnbi.u p,,,t


A delightful evening was that of last
Friday to all who were fortunate
enough to attend the entertainment at
the College Chapel, given by that indie
fatigable worker and devoted member
OF the Methodist church, Mrs. A. G..
McNair. The exercises opened with
Miss Miriam Crutcher at the piano,
who was succeeded byAMr. OLeary in
beautifully rendered vocal solo. This
was Mr.. O'Leary's first appearance be-
fore Brookhaven audience and most
cordially was he received by our mu-
sic loving public. Mrs. r. d. Sessions
and Messrs. Flood and McGrath also
added much to the evenings pleasure
by their excellent vocal renditions.
After the musical part of the program
there followed an entertaining canta-
ia, "a Meeting of the Nations" by
some twenty eight children, represent
ing all nations under the sun, so that
1t is impossible to distinguish among
SO many. We must be pardoned, how
ever, for especially commencing the
impersonation of Japan, by the LEAD
Frs 'angel", little Miss Carrie Chris
man. The Columbian Drill, by twenty
four young ladies, won rounds of ap-
plause and must have aroused the pa
triotism of every lover of his country,
as under Miss Crutcher's magnetic
touch our national hymn resounded
with stirring emphasis, while the stars
and stripes, welded by the graceful
girls, fioated gloriously beneath the
brilliant lights that turned darkness
into day on the spacious rostrum.
A unique and charming feature of
the occasion was the singing of little
Hattie and Marguerite DAWN, two tiny
tots of four and six.
A gratifying sum was realized for
the benefit of the Methodist church.

WELLMAN CITY.
BY JIM.

Work has been resumed at mill>no. l

many hands.

Miss Vic Busby, of Brookhayen, has
been on a visit to her mother and at,

The Topisaw meeting closed Wednes-
day. Rev. l. H. Anding did the preach
ing the last three days; and power
for good he is.
Mrs. A. M. Summers has been quite
sick the past week.
The white caps are giving the gin
owners throughout this part of the
country, orders not to gin any cotton
until it reaches ten cents per pound
under penalty of having their gins
burnt. It seems to us we have had
enough of such foolishness that car
only lead to trouble.

FAIR RIVER NOTES.
BY MARX.

The weather is very dry and dusty.
Cotton is opening much earlier than
usual. Army worms have made their
appearance, but too late to do much
damage.
Dr's. Cowart and Weathersby are
thought to be better. j. B. Dickerson
is quite ill with fever. j. G. Williams
and his little babe were sick last week.
The latter continues very low. Mr..
and Mrs. E. r. Lowell have two sick
children.
Mr.. and Mrs. P. G. Mullens' invalid
child, aged seventeen months, died
last Saturday and was buried at Fair
River church Sunday, Ed. w. H. Bal
ly conducting the funeral services.
The patrons of Fair River school
met at the Mullens' schoolhouse last
Saturday and elected trustees for the
ensuing year and recommended Prof
Mullens as teacher.
The protracted meeting at Fair Riv-
er church closed last Friday with eight
accessions Pastor e. P. Douglass was
assisted by Elders j. j. Green, of
Brookhaven, and Geo. Butler, of Mon
ticello. Both did good preaching un-
der which the most hardened sinners
were brought under the Gospels infiu-
ence and general revival in the
church was the result.

load of buckshot which scattered
about his head, but fortunately miss
ed their mark. Mr.. Smith jumped up
and secured a pistol he had in the
house and fired few shots at the re-
treating form of his would-be assas-
sin, whom he discovered to be negro.
1t Is belived this negro is John Daniels,
sentenced to the penitentiary from
this county in 1891 and escaped in
June, 1892, who held some sort of
grudge against Mr.. Smith.

THE LlTTLE THINGS THE MOST
VALUABLE.

Comparatively few people regard themselves
as inventors, but almost everybody has been
struck, at one time or another. with ideas that
seemed calculated to reduce some of the little
frictlons of life. Usually such ideas are dis
missed without further thought.
why don the railroad companies make its
car windows 30 that they can be slid up and
down without breaking the passenger backs?
exclaims a traveller "If | were running the
road would make them in such a way"
what was the man who made this sucepan
thinking of" grumbles the cook "He never
mad to work over the stove or he would have
known how it ought to have been fixed"
Hang such a collar button! growls the man
who Is late for break asst III l were in the
business | d make buttons that wouldn slip
out. or break OFF. or gouge cat the ba, of my
neck.
And then the various sufferers forget about
their grievances and begin to think of some
thing else. If they would sit down at the next
convenient opportunity, put their ideas about
car windows saucepans. and collar buttons in
to practical shape. and then apply for patents,
they might find themselves as independently
wealthy Is the man who invented the iron UNI
brella ring. or the one who patented the fifteen
puzzle.

Wide 4res for Heavy Wagons.

The advocates of wide tires for
heavy loads upon the country roads
claim that they will allow the teams
to draw from rs to 80 per cent more
load than can be drawn when mar
row tires are used. Some of tie
farmers say that as their money or
labor helped build the roads they
have IA right to 60 over them with
such wheels as they please They
have right to go over Their parlor
carpets with skates on, but it would
be cheaper to use broad soled shoe.
And while they may have paid for
the carpet no one of them paid all
the expense Of the roadmaking or
road repairing.
