large family. All but two have found
homes of their own, and are living in
four different states: Colorado, Kan
sas, Ohio and West Virginia He was
man of much individuality and did
not try to initiate others, but had
opinions of his own. He had to be
well known TO be appreciated. He
was a kind husband and father, true
friend, a lover Of peace in his neigh
borhood. He was man of deep relig-
iocs feeling, had been a member of
the Enon Baptist church for num-
ber OF years and always stood by his
convictions. 1t would be a benefit to
any community to have more men of

be left as a legacy to his family, his

of knowing him. May he peacefully

For three days and nights this

that period was greater than has fall

years. There were numerous floods
and heGvy hail storms reported both

the coolest ever known here In July,
and fires were in demand. There
were several large washouts on the

One of them is when Sheik Tahar himself sets gun spinning on his fing- CTS so fast that all the spectator can see is a streak of steel lightning, and an- other when the same individual makes a flying somersauIt and snatohes up two sharp knives imbedded in the floor ing of the stage. The human pyramids and picturesque groupings of the entire troupe, and their somersaulting and aerial diving, are marvellous The vau- deville features are exceptionally fine also.
