Death of j. Milton DunckIey.


j. Milton Dunckley, Il nephew of
Mrs. j. f. Sessions, who came to Brook
haven from Florida about three weeks
ago in the last stages of consumption.
died at the home Of his aunt on last
Thursday afternoon. After he arrived
here all that tender, loving hands and
medical skill could do, we're employed
for his relief, but in vain, and to
administer comfort and smooth the
dying pillow during the last few days
of life, was all that could avail. Young
Dunckley was a practical printer by
trade, having begun and served his APP
premiership when "a mere boy, in the
office of the New Mississppian, under
the brilliant and lamented John H.
Martin. Many of the witty, the elo-
quent, the caustic and scathing edito-
rails that made the New Mississippian
and its unrivaled editor so famous and
popular in the sos were set in type by
his nimble boy fingers. He was one of
the industrious, energetic, resolute
young men who a little over q year
ago, in the face of seemingly insur-
mountable difficulties, which would
have dismayed less dauntless spirits.
established the Jackson Evening News,
and continued to labor on that jour
nal, the meanwhile seeing it steadily
grow in popular favor, until short
time ago, when the insidious disease
which had fastened itself upon his vi
tai forces compelled him to seek re-
lief by trip to "the Land of Flowers"
with what result is already known.
Within the year Milton had united
with the jackson Methodist Church
and died in the Christians faith. Wal
ter Johnson, local editor and one of his
co-workers on the Evening News, to-
gether with number of other Jack
son friends, came down Friday after
noon to attend the funeral, which took
place at the Brookhaven Methodist
church. Rev. A. F. Watkins, his pas
tor, who had made special visit to
him during his last illness, also came
and in conducting the funeral services,
paid touching and tender tribute to
his character
He was tenderly laid to rest in the
Brookhaven cemetery, and, as if by
sympathetic destiny, not far from the
spot where sleeps the lamented Mar
tin, under whose eye he began so young
the rugged battle of life Hereafter the
same gentle zephyrs will sway the
grass and flowers which cover their
graves, the CHEEKY morning carols of
the same song birds be heard in the
trees above, and the last rays of the
sinking sun which kiss and tinge with
gold the oaks and pines which guard
the final resting place of the peerless
young journalist, cut down in the
morning of his usefulness, will shed
their mellow light upon the sepulchre
of the orphan printer boy, whom none
knew but to esteem for his modest, un-
assuming worth.
Sweet be their rest

Tom Moore, one of the best known
and most popular negro porters on the
Illinois Central, was suddenly killed
here last Wednesday afternoon. The
north and south bound cannon balls
usually pass here, and on this occa-
sion while the engine of the north
bound train was showing some gravel
cars out of the way to make room on
the siding, Moore ran ahead to make a
coupling. In doing this he lost his
balance and fell on the track in front
of one of the gravel cars, and before
the engineer, who saw him fall, could
check his engine, he was caught under
the wheel of the gravel car. The car
was stopped before passing entirely
over his body, but his stomach and
spinal column were SO badly crushed
death followed instantly.
Tom Moore married worthy colored
woman of Brookhaven few years ago,
and was we'll known and highly re-
spected by citizens of both races. He
was buried here Thursday evening.

days of good weather last week.
Farmers are planting cane and gar

fencing yet.
We are all looking and hoping for
Mr. j. r. Ainsworth and his pretty
Louisiana bride to return.
A large congregation was pleased by
''grand sermon" last Sunday at Shi-
lob by Bro. K. p. Douglass, but a few
restless boys who wished to either show
their raising or their store clothes,
were passing in and out now and then.
Boys, have some consideration and
some gentlemanly principle about you,
and keep your seats during religious
services.
A permanent mail route is being
considered, from Malcum to Brook
havon.
Mr.. A. e. Little made a hasty trip
from Johnson to Malcum last Satur-

visit Brookhaven on April Goth for the
purpose of delivering an address and
recognizing the local Y. w. G. L. U.
Miss Kearney's earnest zeal, winning
manners and persuasive eloquence are
known to many Of our readers who
were privileged to hear her during a
visit a few years ago, when she was but
comparatively novitiate in the tenn

still more thoroughly equipped her
self by study and practical experience
for the noble work to which she has
unselfishly consecrated her life and
talents. She has rendered efficient
service on the lecture platform and as
an organizer in Mississippi and other
States, and is one of the few young
temperance women who has won a
national reputation.
The LEADER hopes to see every
Prohibitionist and friend of temper
ance in Brookhaven give her cordial
welcome when she comes.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1.-The immu-

weeks was broken to-day by the ap-
pearance at the main doorway of an
understood man dressed In working

was Thomas Cadogan. and gave his
address as the Lynn House, on Penn

quietly,
They want to put me under ground,

about II, and you must not stop me,
replied Cadogan, nervously. tele-
phone call brought patrol wagon and
the man was carried to the Third
Precinct Station. Some papers were
found in his pockets, making II appear
that CadoSan wanted to secure the
Presidents permission TO line the
Capitol building.
Cadogan has called before at the
White House, but was tractable and
persuaded to go away. In a note he
complained that the watchmen kept
him from discussing matters of i'm
