IN MEMORIAM.

Mrs. John T. Bowman, a highly re-
spectacle, noble-hesrted consecrated
christian lady, died Thursday night,
Sept. Is, about o'clock after a long
protracted affection, which she bore
with accomplishing patience and chris
tian fortitude, She died in full
triumphant hope of blessed immortality
beyond this vale of tears and disap.
pointments. She was a kind tender
hearted mother, and a consecrated de-
voted Rffectionate wife. She leaves q
host of friends and relatives behind to
mourn her irrepairable loss. While the
family claim that they are under many
obligations to all those who showed
them such unwavering attention and
confraternal hospitality to them in theil
sore bereavement.
Her prospect was all aglow with sweet
anticipation,
OF being filled with all the fruition o.
FERTILIZATION.
She crossed without a murmnr o'el
Jordan's mystic river,
Out in the grand infinite eternal, for
ever
To pluck the never-failing fruit o
eternal life
To feast forever with the glory adorned
bride, the Lambs wife.
She's gone to roam the fields of Eden'i
blissful bowers,
With the white-robed angels annie
heavens fragrant flowers.
Her house, with the greatest prepare
tion in order she had set,
And told her companion and children
after her not to fret.
She was the bright morning and eve
ming star Of her happy home,
In whose presence her doating children
delighted to romp and roam.

willing to acknowledge having had a
hand in the putting OF Section % into
the tariff bill while the measure was in
conference. II is Senator Elkins, Of
West Virginia, who says that the dis

tended to shut out freight now brought
into the United States by the Canadian
Pacific Railroad. But it will also shut
out much stuff brought by other trans
portation liaes, both by rail and sea.

Death of J. L. Sparks.

Last Wednesday, September 10,
james L. Sparks died at his residence
in Ripley, Tenn, in his eighty-fourth
year.
DR.. Sparks was born in Washington
county, Va, on the 9th of October,
1873 When quite small, he, with 9th
er members of his fathers family, re.
moved to Washington county, Tenn,
where he spent the greater portion Of
his long and useful life. In 1895 he
was married to Miss Margaret G. Greer,
and together they lived in happy we'd
ded union for more than fifteen years,
Mrs Sparks having died in Ripley, q
few years ago. DR.. Sparks was medi.
cal practitioner, in his young manhood
but he early evinced taste for journal.
ism, and accordingly, in 1886, while
yet q young man, he established the
Tennessee Sentinel at Jonesboro, the
first democratic newspaper published
in that county. Afterward he set on
foot the Jonesboro Union, of which he
was the editor. Coming to Ripley in
1871, he ct once became co-editor with
his son James of the Ripley News, and
after that sons death, some years ago,
he continued as chief editor of this
paper until few days ago, when his
long, useful and honored life in the
fulness of years, came to close.
Mrs. Milton Keen, of this place, is q
daughter of DIR. Sparks, and William
Sparks, of johnson City, is brother.
Many of our older citizens remember
the doctor, and all retain the most
pleasant recollections of his gentle dis
position and warm heart; and where
best known he was most highly re-
spected and esteemed.
In his career as newspaper man he
was conscientious and careful in his
consideration of men and measures, ad-
vocating the right as he saw it with
vigor and earnestness. Herald and

naming at home and taking part in the

to request Of Mckinley, made during

at the white house, agreed to resume
his duties as United States Consul
General to Cuba as soon as the leave OF
absence upon which he came home ex-
pired, which will be early in October.
General Lee is mum aboutth situation
in Cuba, but his opinions as we'll as the
drift of his sympathy are pretty well
known, and it is not believed that he
would have agreed to return to Cubs

that some action was soon to be taker

In view of the officially estimated
deficit in the payment of pensions for
the current fiscal year there may be
some emphatic talk on this subject at
the coming session of congress. Lest
some of our republican readers should
say that this idea of pension deficit
was concocted by the opponents OF the
administration, the following language
used by II. Clay Evans, commissioner
of pensions, is given: 81 estimate that
the total payment for the year will not
exceed $147, 500, 900, and the appropria-
ton for the year is $141, 1853, $780," Mr..
Evans speaks of this probable deficit of
six and quarter millions of dollars as
indiffsrently as though he we're talking
of purchasing pint Of peanuts, and
when his attention was called to the
probability that the failure of the new
tariff to produce the estimated amount
of revenue might cause congress to OBJ
iect to passing n deficiency pension ap-
preparation bill for this year, he gave
away the republican plan for meeting
such a contingency by saying eff
there should be an unexpected falling
off in the revenue, the pension payment
might be curtailed towards the end OF
the wear"
