ANDREWS, June 9.-Mrs. Katie
| Vaughan Nicholson, died at her home
near Call, June Sth, in her siXty-thtrd
year. For several weeks she had suf-
fered with complication of diseases
and her death was not unexpected
She was twice married. In youth she
was joined in wedlock to Mr.. Wright,
who died young, leaving her with one
son, and in maturer years she was mar
ried to Mr.. Nat Nicholson, who pre-
ceded her to the grave n little over
three years. Their union was blessed
with four children, all of whom sur
/ vive her, and are made to feel an ire
parable loss, that of a good mother.
But those who will miss her most and
realize the greatest loss, are her two
little orphan grandchildren, Wilburn
and Myrtle Wright. Their grief seems
unbearable They did not long enjoy a
mothers love, and about one year ago
their father too was called to 20, and
now that grandma has gone their ten
der hearts must be burdened with q
load of grief. She was sister of Mrs.
jim Jones and Messrs. f. NJ. and c. C..
Vaughan. For more than thirty years
she was consistent member of the G.
p. Church. Services were conducted
Tuesday, Mt the grave, by Rev. III, A.
Gray and she was laid TO rest beside
loved ones who sleep in the Hardison
graveyard.
Elders Northcross and Smith of
Williamson County, will be at COrinth
next Lords Day, when the former will
no doubt do some more good preaching.
The good people of Corinth and Rock
Spring have made the mistake of APP
pointing the fourth Lords day in
August to begin their protracted meet
ings. The former made arrangements
in January with Elder J. T., B. Ridley
to conduct meeting at that time for
them, and recently the latter contracted
with Rev. $. NJ. Gupton for theirs, that
being the only week he could give them
until much later. We trust to get a
better adiustH cGt Of things before that
time rolls round.
Mrs. Gray, Mrs. Speed and little Lura
Moore are on the sick list
Mrs. viii Noorhies is also very sick
at the home of her parents.
Elise Caldwell, of Columbia, is visit
ing her little cousins Mary and Lula
Scott.
Mrs. Mamie Chisholm, of Birming-
ham, Ala, visited her sisters here, Mrs.
Wilburn Sowell and Mrs. James Pope,
the last of last week.
Mrs. Mary DooleY is spending a
month with her son James.
Mr.. jim Pope has gone to William
son county to run his wheat thresher,
and took several hands ana wagons
from here. hlPPLlNG WAVES

MT. PLEASANT.

Mt. PLEASANT, june 9.-Monday even
ing at Hay Long Seminary, the people
began assembling early to spend an
evening with Shakespeare. After the
opening prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Mills,
and the overture by Mrs. Ewing and
Miss Ross, came the recitation, "Last
Days of Pompeii," by Miss Riar Long,
which was the only recitation, but was
highly appreciated by the audience.
The selections from Merchant OF Venice
were admirably rendered by the stud
ents, each of whom did well as amateur
performers. The Shakesperian Burles-
que, by five young ladies with well
trained voices, came last on program,
and was decided success. At II Il. m.
Rev. Mr.. John n. Lyle, of Lewisburg
delivered an entertaining address to the
pupils and patrons of the seminary;
His subject was Success" 1t con-
tanned much wholesome and useful adj
vice and portrayal of what man should
be. There were many fair ladies present,
but the busy times Of the farmers made
the attendance of the men in the har-
vest fields almost anecessity.
Tuesday night the concert by the pu-
pills of Miss Bellanfant's class in Phys
iCal Culture will doubtless be well at
tended and prove a success for the class
and the earnest teacher. Judging by
the items on the program and the inter
est taken in the rehearsals, the enter
tainment will be very enjoyable and
highly creditable to all interested in it.
The people of Mt. Pleasant and Vi
entity will soon be proud of the new
mill, which has been built by Messrs.
Hunter q Ingram near the depot. They
intend to be under Roadway by the tirsy
of July. VISITOR

SPEAKING AT DERBY
Col. Dyer Wakes up the People OF That
Little City.

last night Colonel ]. /. Dyer went
down to Mulvane where he was billed to
make a Republican speech. The peo-
pie of Derby while thoroughly alive to
che Importance of electing Republicans
had few people among them who
needed talking to. Mr. DawellinS, Mr..
Haymaker, Mr.. Amidon and other first
degree plutocrats, nave been inooulat-
ing them with the fatal virus of Popu-
ism and the Republican committee felt
that a competent political physician
should be sent down there to feel their
pulse, break their free silver fever and
restore them to a good healthy think
ing and reasoning condition again.
Colonel Dyer was just the man to send.
He is one of the best posted men on
the financial question in the state. He
seems to have read everything on the
subject. He is splendfdly equipped 10
talk to the plain people and there is no
doubt but what he had a rousing meet
ing and made a rousing speech last
night
