1.-The newspapers have treated me with

somewhat mortifying information 20 the
able editors who so industriously worked
the grandfather nat racket.
Governor Adams wants it understood that
Colorado will gladly welcome all comers

are having in that state.
Secretary Herbert has sent the battleship
Texas to Galveston. This looks little like

very hard up for good cabinet material

commissioners to say that their work in

the kind of man that ought to represent Il
state like Arkansas. and Arkansas is just
the kind of state that a man like Jones
ought to represent.
It can be said for Senator PETER that he
left nothing undone to help the government
along. He placed his whole family in its
service, and on its pay rolls.
The silence of Mr.. Vest doesn't necessar-
lily mean that the Spanish government has
bought him off. He may be laying an am

The Populists will at least admit that the

1t is impossible, according TO William ].
Bryan, to make a perfectly honest dollar.

In MemOrianl.

Death has again invaded this COM mum
ity and removed one of our best and most
esteemed citizens in the person of Maj. E.
J. Earle. He died at his home-"Ever-
green'-on Monday eve, Feb. 90, 1897,
the place that he spent the greater part
of his life. His health had been failing
for some time, and no one was more fully
assured of the approaching end than him
self, and he met it calmly and as much
resigned as a person starting upon an
earthly journey. His sufferlngs. incura-
BILE though he knew his malady to be-,
never made him morbid, never embitter-
ed him, never made him less sympathet-
ic, loving and tender; recognizing that it
was his Fathers hand that afflicted him
he said, "it IS we'll" And he laid down
the battle SCARED armor as a soldier Of
King Emmanuels cross and exclaimed
truly, 81 have fought a good fight, have
finished my course; henceforth there is q
a crown of righteousness laid up for me
which the righteous Judge shall give me
in that day." Ueath is always sad, but
the gloom of the grave is dispelled when
we are enabled by grace divine to look
beyond this vale of tears, and like Paul
exclaim: "For me to live in Christ and to
die is gainI Beautiful life! What an
inspiration to so live that our last days
may be as trustful and peaceful, as full
of steadfast faith as his; no doubts, no
fears obscured his vision, but calmly,
sweetly as little child, he awaited the
summons to come up higher.
Maj. Earle grew to manhood in ante
bellum days and was noted for his hos
pitality and kind attention to all with
whom he came in contact. He had pass
ed his three-score-and-ten years, having
been born in 1928. A large congregation
assem- bled at Shiloh on Wednesday, the
9th inst to pay the last tribute to the
memory of one they loved. The funeral
was conducted by Revs. M. MCGEE and
II. A. Thornton, in words most appropri-
ate, full of comfort and coincidence to the
sorrowing relatives and friends We
tender our sympathy to the grief-strick-
Oh family in this sad hour.
Home ut last on heavenly mountains
Heard the "come and enter in ~
Saved by life's fair owing fountains.
Saved from earthly taint and sin.
Free at last from all temptation,
No more need Of watchful care;
Joyful in complete salvation,
Given the victo1's crown to wear.
Welcome at the pcarly portal,
Evermore welcome guest;
Welcomed to the life immortal
In the mansions Of the blest.
"Home, sweet home," our home forever,
All the pilgrim journey past;
Welcomed home to wander? Never.
Saved through Jcsus-"Home at last"
A FRIEND.
