and Mr.. Sherrell of same place, who
after addressing the Association
were invited to seats on the plat

questions of missions had been
expected, but so far the workings
of the Association has been char
acterized with oneness of thought
and expression. The Association

Baptist church at Paducah. The
annual sermon was pTea he'd by
the venerable DR.. w. w. Gardner,

young preachers of the State,
preached Sunday morning at the
Opera House; DR.. w. A. Pickard,

Mrs. Ann E. Wood died at her
residence in this city on Sunday MORN
ing June 3, aged 63 years. For sew
eral years Mrs. Wood has been in
very poor health, and the end was not
unlocked for. More than 30yesrs ago
she moved to this county from Flem-
ing, where she was raised and had
married Mr.. John Wood. and has
since made this place her home. Her
husband died in 1871 and left her with
six little children to fight alone her
way through life. A good and true
mother who was ever ready to do her
utmost for those God had left in her
hands and who counted nothing a
sacrifice that would add to the pleasure
or well-being of her little ones.
Bravely she fought the battle and
lived to see her boys grow up success
full business men who could repay her
in some degree for the many sacrifi-
ces she had made for them. We talk
OF the heriones of old, but the heroism
of Boadicea or Joan of Arc pales
in:o insignificance before that of the
mother who with six little ones left
on her hands, in the face of adverse
fate, alone and single handed, makes
the way for herself and them, through
this pushing, bustling, work-a-day
world OF ours.
Mrs. Wood was sister of Mrs. A.
L. Wood and Mr.. Henry Pickrell, of
this city, Mrs. f. f. Fitch daughter
lives in Cedartown, Georgia, two
daughters Misses Kate and Edna,
of this city, and three sons, William,
l.. 7. and John f. live with us.
Funeral this afternoon at the residence
ON Harrison Avenue. Burial in Mach

A Decision Handed Down Against th'
COLUMBIA Photograph Company

a Declsion Handed Down Against the
OoIumbIa Photograph Company
WASHINGTON, December PA de-
cision was rendered to-day In the Su-
preme Court Of the Districtof Columbia
in the suit which has been pending for
NEARLY two years, brought by the Amer
IcVu Graphnphone Company, nominally
against the Columbia Photograph Com
pspy. but the real parties defendant
belng Thomas A. Edison AID the Edison
Photograph works.
It's alleged by the American Grapno-
phone Company that the original EDISON
tin foil phonograph was failure, as
the sound records 1t made was cot &C.
curate, permanent or capable OF oelng
reproduced as often IS desired, could
not be detached from the machine,
handled and transported; ana that
the art as now known, was
created by the inventions OF
Alexander Graham Bell, Chichester A.
Bell and Charles Sumner fainter, who
began their work under the auspices OF
the Volta Laboratory Association, and
whose datents were afterward acquired
by the American Graphophone Com
pany, and that every phonoEraph, eV-
cry phonograph-cylinder, and every
phonograph record became practical
and valuable only 30 far as 1t relied
upon the principle Of engraving the
record, as distinguished from the aoan-
doned method Of indenting, used In
Edison's original tin foil photograph.
No testimony was taken for the Co.
lumbia Photograph Com panY, and when
the time limit fixed by the Court had
almost expired the defendant withdrew
counsel and allowed decree by default.
The Court finds for the American
GraphoDhons Company on every point
issues a decree Of Injunction against
the defendant, and orders an account
ing by the auditor Of the court, Other
suits are pending in New Jersey, New
York, Ohio, Massachusetts,, Illinois and
Kansas.

1t appears that Hon. N. E. Whitaker,
Republican State Senator-elect from the
Wheeling district, is making an active
fight for the United States Senate. the
Charleston Mail, as far as we can learn,
seems to be about the only Republican
paper in the State supporting him, and
the Mail, we imagine, will be powerless
against the combined influence OF Eli
kins' barrel and the united Republican
press of the State. II is sin and a
shame that it should be so, but the de-
cree has gone forth and Hubbard, Stur-
giss, Hutchinson, Whitaker and every
other man Of note in the Republican
party in the State must stand aside and
see the prize go 20 the man from New
Mexico.

Great Damage Wrought BY storm IN

LONDON, December 24-The tele-

amount Of the damage done by the
storm is not known. IL is estimated,
however, that from so to 100 persons
lost their lives IN various manners dur

Lloyd's to-day report ssventy-nine
wrecks and casualties during the storm,
many Of them accompanied by loss OF

AMSTERDAM, December 24.-The
storm news from various parts of she
coast shows that the damage done has
been much greater than was at first
supposed. The North sea beach in
every direction has been washed away
from fourteen TO twenty feet and many
fishing vessels which had been drawn
ND on the beach had been destroyed.
The port OF Flushing has been
greatly damaged.
The German bark, Caroline, has been
wrecked of the coast. Ten OF hsr crew

sToKIo. December 24.-Parliament
49, opened to-day. The speech frem
lth5 kbrone briefly refers TO the victories
lachiB ed by the Japanese troops 10
leVerN engagement, and says they are
steadil u pressing forward in the enemy's
territory, adding that it is especially
satisfactory TO note that In spite OF cold
and hardships, the forces are more than
ever Distinguishing themselves by their
ValOr. The relations OF Japan WITH the
neutral powers are more friendly than
ever. The revision of treaties on long
cherished desires has been accomplished
with some countries, and with other
States the negotiations for this purpose
are making favorable progress.
In conclusion the speech says: "Hav-
ing been placed in such a glorious
situation, we WISH more than ever 20
promote the civilization OF the country
and enjoin Parliament to take notice OF
she state Of affairs al home and abroad,
and by securing harmony between the
government and the people assist IN the
furtherance OF the imperial wishes"
The government Is still skeptical In
regard TO China's peace oVerEures, and
points out that the authoritative state
nent has not yet been made by China In
regard TO the mission, and that while
China now PROCESSES to desire peace,
news has reached the government OF
Japan that China is negotiating for the
purchase of an entire squadron OF the
Gillian navy, and the agents OF Col.
Won Hannekin in Europe, ii is added,
are trying TO enlist 3 number OF Ger
man officers for service 10 the Chinese
army and navy.
