The news that came to us yester-
day morning of the death Of Grand
ma james, did not bear with 1t the
sudden shock that oft attends the
word of one Of our number going
cut from among US. -Four score
and three years has she spent in
this life, to the elevation and bet
terment of those about her. The
twilight of her sojourn here has
been II score of years in itself, and
in her enfeebled condition and
wasting strength, it was but the
cherished hand of relief, that came
to bear her 10 her eternal reward,
leaving behind a world far better
by her having lived in 1t. She has
seen children, grandchildren and
great-grand-children, pass out to
their eternal home before her, and
she, by her superior strength, live
on and on bearing the burdens and
adversity. Her life has been one
of beauty, bearing succor to the
distressed and comfort to those who
mourn. The pleasant family will
greatly mourn the passing out of
their beloved parent, though ex-
pectant for years that the end of
their joy with her on this earth was
close at hand. They have the ten
derest sympathy of the entire COM
munity.
Mrs. G.. w. James Sr. was born in
Beaver Dam, Loudoun Co., Va, in
the year 1872, died at Logan, Ohio,
May 6, 1895, aged, SO years. Her
maiden name was Martha Brown;
married to.C. w. James at Beaver
Dam, Va, on Nov. /, 1882, and came
to Logan Il few days later. She
was the mother of eight children,
seven of whom and her husband
survive her. The funeral will take
place from the residence Thursday
at 8 o'clock d. m.

Sheriff Ryan's Cow.

1t will no doubt be news to many
of Sheriff Ryan's friends to learn
that he has Il COW, not the ordinary,
everyday milch COW, but an edu-
Gated, high-toned, accomplished,
business COW. Since "Patsy,n who
was general overseer and usher,
has left, the sheriff has had consid-
cradle trouble keeping the COW in
the yard, although he has hooks
outside and inside the gate and
pins on both sides the stable door.
The COW does nothing but lay for
visitors and when she catches one
who, when he leaves, hooks the
gate on the inside and not on the
outside, she Immediately follows to
the gate and lifts the hook with her
horn, and marches out as independ-
ent as Deputy Sheriff Bright. II
any one chances to go in through
the stable door she Immediately
pulls the pin and walks out.
These are not the only smart
things she does, either. Among
the guests Of Castle Ryan is an ac-
complished violinist who is very
exact with his instrument, conse-
quently spends considerable time
in "tuning up" Wonderful as ii
may seem the cow has formed this
same habit of "tuning up" only she
has no fiddle, hut bawls, and when
the professor bows in A The COW
bawls In A, and when he bows in G
she bawls in G, and SO proficient
has she become that it is almost
impossible for the most acc0mp-
lished musician with the finest mu-
sical ear to distinguish the viOlinist
tuning from the COW bawling.
Besides the cows musical taste
she has another wonderful accom-
plishment which has become very
annoying to Mrs. Ryan, especially
when she undertakes tu milk her.
Ifthe "professor" starts up waltz
the COW Immediately begins to
waltz, and II he plays a polka she
polkas, and SO on.
Sheriff Ryan says the COW was
never known to waltz or polka or
never even showed any desire for
any Of these high toned accomp-
lishments until John Nixon got to
visiting him, and he attributes the
cows efficiency in dancing to John.

Some LanghabIe Anecdoteso Lafayetse's
Welcome In 1924. r.


Some LanghabIe Anecdoteso fLafayette's
Welcome In 1924.
When Lafayette, in 1924, made his
memorable tour through the United
States, many amusing incidents ioc-.
Cured. Lafayette spoke but little
English, and understood less. He
had retained few phrases. such as
''Thanks!" "My dear friend!" Great
country" Happy man" "Ah. re-
member" And. though he. usually
uttered these in an effective manner.
they were sometimes ludicrously
malapropos At Halifax the cortege
was met by General Daniel, who had
stationed company OF soldiers by
the roadside, tanked by the
ladies who had assembled to
do honor to the guest OF the
state. 1t had been arranged that
the ladies should wave their hand
kerchiefs as soon as Lafayette came
in sight, and when Daniel exclaimed,
Welcome, Lafayette." the whole
company was TO repeat the words
after him. Unluckily, the ladies
waited too long, says Argonaut, only
to be reminded OF their duty by q
stentorian command OF "Flirt, ladies.
dirt, i say!" from the general, as he
walked down the line TO meet the
marquis. Equally misunderstanding
their part, the soldiers. instead of
shouting, Welcome. Lafayette" in
unison at the close OF the generals
speech, repeated the sentence one
by one in varying tones down the
line. General Daniel, frantic at this
burlesquo OF his order. vainly
attempted to correct it; but
as he unfortunately stammered
when he was excited, his
"Say it all to to together could
not overtake the running fire of
WELCOME, l.afayette!" which con-
tinued all along the line. Great
country! great couutrym replied
Lafayette, turning to General Polk,
who was vainly trying not to smile.
Recognizing an old acquaintance,
Lafayette greeted him with great
effusion: "Ah, my dear friend. so
glad to see you once more! Hope
you have prospered and had good
fortune all these years. "Yes. gen
eral, yes; but | have had the great
misfortune to lose my wife since /
saw YOU" Catching the word "wife, ="
Lafayette guessed at the idea of q
recent marriage, and. pattina his
old friend affectionately on the shout
der, he exclaimed Happy man!
happy man.

Umbrellas In Colors.

In women's umbrellas black is fast
disappearing, giving place to colors,
and changeable ones at thatl When
first they began to come in they were
predicted fad, but that is proved an
error, and red, blue, green and brown
are staple colors for umbrellas, and
no one need fear getting one on the
score that next season it will be passe.
II two tones are in an umbrella
which is one of the smart styles -one
is usually black, and that is the only
appearance of the latter save for
mourning. The latest color is green
"a dark shade, let it be understood;
none of them are brilliant TO any de-
gree, and n shade of brown dubbed
tobacco" is quite one of the most
chic. Suitability and the general fit
ness of things have led to umbrellas
with handles that have some reference
to the shade of silk. A green no
longer is topped with a slly-blue knob
or some other glaring incongruity.
Where it is impossible to match the
colors they at least blend.
