Mention was made last week OF
challenge thrown out by Calvin Nc.
MILAN to run his against anybody
else's horse in three quarter dash.
Since then, in spite of Calvin's efforts
to save him, his horse persisted in
dying, and succeeded in doing 80 last
Friday night. 1t is quite loss during
these tight times to lose as valuable
a piece of property as an ordinary,
everyday work horse, but it is double
loss when one has to stand by and
see good work horse and fine racer
die. We sympathize with you, Cal
vim, for it will he hard to replace that
animal. AS far as this horse is con-
cerned, the race is Of course lndef-
nitely postponed and the challenge
withdrawn.

William w. Gilmer was born in Rus
sell county, Va, March 20, 1885; pro-
iessed religion when eighteen years
cid; was married to Sarah ]. Hughes
June l3, 1861, who died February l0,
1870. He was again married to Carrie
L Carr, of Washington county, Tenn,
February %, 1872, and died at his
home in johnson City, Tenn, June 6,
1894 The influences around his early
lfe were good. He was brought up
in Russell county, Va, sturdy
Christian people, and in the Gilmer
family which has been prominent in
that county for many years in Metho-
dist history. With this early training,
it is not strange that our brother real
lied that the highest equipment for
life was in personal conservation to
the service OF God. Hence we see the
youth at eighteen years of age, when
he begins to comprehend the real
meaning OF life, giving himself wholly
to God. His religion was not just a
sentiment that ebbed and flowed with
the conditions OF his life, but princi-
Pile that entered into every day and
every action. The basil principle un-
derlying his whole life was religious
integrity. This was seen in his bust
ness life; every transaction was upon
the high plane OF righteousness, and
wherever known he was regarded as 9
pure, upright man. In the church, o.
which, for 80 many years, he was ar
honoreJ member, he was devoted ant
useful. He was liberal in the suppor
OF the church to the extent Of his abil
ity, and no pastor ever had a true
friend than he. His life was seer

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-An u, u.
sually touching and pathetic case OF
destitution has come 10 light here il
which Robert Tyler Jones, a grandson
OF Presi lent Tyler and the first male
infant born in the White House has
been living in the attic in the outskirts
OF the city, suffering for the necessitie>
OF life, with an invalid wife and little
baby dependent upon him In July,
1887, hi5 uncle, John Tyler. Jr son Of
the President, and his private secreta-
ry at the White House was stricken
with paralysis. He had held the office
OF special witness to certify to the de-
struction of cancelled currency. The
nephew came to Wa hlngton to nurse
him and WAS appointed his alternate
under Cleveland's first administration
He held that office until July, 1898,
and every month lie divides his salary
in two equal parts, one OF which he
placed in an envelope and sent to the
helpless uncle. This he did for six
years without intermission. During
Mr. Harrison's administration an un.
successful attempt was made to oust
him because he had been a Coniede,
rate soldier. The last Congress passed
a law that no substitutes should here.
after be employed in any department
and this resulted in his loss OF Official
