FIRE OVER TINE RIVER.


~oVs ~ SVUesvySs
BY firs Tuesday Mornjng.
The residence of Capt. W. J. Howell
was burned to the ground last Tuesday
morning. All the furniture and other
articles of value in the building were
saved and the loss Of the building was
covered by insurance.
The fire, which was caused by a
defective aue, broke ont in the kitchen
about nine o'clock in the morning.
The alarm was Immediately given, and
the people Of Greenwood fiocked to the
ferry in order to render any assistance
towards saving the effects of the fam
lily. A large crowd witnessed the
burning of the structure from this side
of the river.
Those who were enabled to cross in
time worked like beavers, and, owing
to the fact that the fire burned very
slowly, managed to save everything
movable from the building.

Good Woman at Rest.


is seldom seen as that shown to tn,
memory Of Mrs. j. z. George on las
Friday, when her remains were laid Il
rest in Evergreen cemetery near Car
r%ollton. People came for miles arount
to pay this last sad tribute of respec
to this kind hearted, patient, loving
christian woman. She had lived IL
Carroll county for more than a half cen
fury and if she aver failed to improv,
an opportunity to do a generous act
to say a kind word-to add to the sun
of human happiness and joy, her mos
intimate friends have no recollection OF
1t. She was thoroughly imbued with thu
spirit of Christ and however harsh thu
Judgment of others might be, she could
always find in the character of thu
widest and most Maynard man OF
woman some redeeming quality. She
would never censure and abuse-hel
efforts were always to raise up-tc
elevate to reclaim. She knew that
punishment is degrading, that fault
finding Is a crime and that no man OF
woman wa ever made better by curses
and abuse. Conscious of that fact she
always sought by other means to heir
others. And by such a life she won the
love and admiration of all who came In
contact with her. And the profound
sorrow manifested by the great con
course of people who attended hel
funeral proclaimed in unmistakable
terms the depth of their affection 70,
her.
Miss E. b. Young was married to
Jas. 2. George May ~, 1s47. They had
born to them II children, all Of whom
are living save two. Owing to the en-,
crossing duties of a great career Sena.
tor George threw the greater resonsi
bility of rearing the family upon his
wife. It was she alone who had the
care of rearing their children. How
well she has succeeded in this most
diff and important Of all work,
the noble wives which her daughters
are making and the substantial charac.
tiers Of her sons will answer. Not only
did she serve her county we'll by the
character of her children, but to her,
more than any other cause, is due the
magnificent success and splendid career
of her noble husband. 1t was her
brave words of encouragement and hope
that always nerved him to enter the
conflict; and 1t was her words of good
cheer, her smiles and devotion that led
him through the darkest and most
doubtful trials to glorious victory.
We shall miss her as she has gone
those kind words and that loving face
no more shall We see--but we will
not forget the lesson of her life.
Good deeds are as eternal as God, and
we believe that in the great beyond
they will be as ministering angels to
the soul that did them on earth. Mrs.
George is blessed she is at rest. The
trials and disappointments which all
who live must encounter, no more
disturb her peaceful mind.
To those. who by the ties Of a closer
kinship, are called upon to to suffer the
pangs of the separation, we extend our
deepest sympathy and respect.

Chords ead Discords.

Under the efficient tuition of Prof.
C. Morley the Greenwood Cornet
Band Is making considerable progress.
When in actual practice there is a little
harmony, but the discords, with which
the night Is frequently made hideous,
are produced through the efforts Of
each member to play . solo on bis
chosen instrument regardless Of what
his neighbor is playing, and likewise
Of the nerves Of the meek and long.suf.
fering public.
The mission Of a brass band in q com.
munity Is for good. Perhaps no other
single feature can contribute 80 much
to . towns life and pleasure. This
being . fact, II is but just that a band
should BE- looked upon, in a measure, as
. public institution; and this view
makes it, success a matter of interest to
every citizen.
Glance for . moment at the useful
ness Of q brass band:
A celebration OF any kind Is tame in.
deed without Its inspiring strains. Not
only does every holiday and campaign
speak urgently for its utility, but other
occasions, some joyful, others Of deep.

only adequate auxiliary. Its mission
may truly be said to be to express in
musical tones the voice Of the people.

Mr.. Webster, but learned that he would

lowed that 1t should not cross at Rocky
