Ed. ReqtStcr-From Z o'clock A. NJ.
till nearly II p. NJ. on the 18th, the
wind blew a furious gale here, uproot-
ing trees, blowing down hundreds of
paunels of fencing, ETC.; but so far as
I've heard no serious damage has been
done.
Farmers are now busily engaged in
planting corn corn, sowing oats, clo-
yer, etc. Wheat, though somewhat
damaged by the late frost, is looking
quite well.
The peach trees are unusually full of
bloom-a fact somewhat singular when
we consider the many freezes we have
had since the first appearance OF bloom,
more than fifteen days ago.
Died-On the 18th inst. infant child

having died only few months ago.

Shepard has purchased an interest in

At the school meeting here on the
9Th inst. the following named persons

Latham for three years; Nelson Strick-
lin, for two years, Joseph Thompson
being the other member of the board.
J. 7. Patterson has been employed to
teach the ensuing year; length OF term,
six months. There is a considerable
wraugle in the Goodlaud district over
proposition to divide said district;
the proposition was defeated, but the
end is not yet. Let politics get into
the church, the school, and the family
then nothing short of divide will re-
store the equilibrium.
It is said that H. Latham is candi-

not easily influenced to go contrary to
what he believes to be right. That's
the kind of a man we need for an Off

the West End, whose interest is there,

On the Goth ult. the writer made u
trip IrOntOn; and as it had been rain
ing most of the time for two weeks
prior to that date, when another down
pour came during the night, it was
with much difficulty that the return
trip home was made. Starting from
Irontou at 9 o'clock A. NJ, via. Pilot
Knob. On the 9th, when the weather
looked very threatening, l had gone
only to Judge Hancock's farm when
the rain came down as if the very flood
gates were open. a dreary ride it was
through the rain to the first dwelling
house near the road-Mr. Thomas
Hills, at which place l stopped till the
rain ceased for the time being. HaV-
ing my horse fed, and partakiug of a
most excellent dinner, which Mrs. H.
knows just how to prepare, the return
trip was resumed along the CentreVille
and Black RIVER road. And here
wish to state that Mr.. and Mrs. Hill
cannot be eXcelled when it comes to
kind treatment to a stranger. And
such nice orderly family. it would
be hard to fiud elsewhere. 1t had been
my aim to reach home that afternoon;
but when | reached Mr.. Oesch's farm,
just before dark, l found that Outre
Fork was just booming, absolutely
''passed fording," so | stopped over
night with Mr.. and Mrs. Oesch. The
evening was spent quite pleasantly,
Mrs. o. rendering some choice vocal
and instrumental music. Though Mrs.
Oesch has never taken lessons in in
strumental music, she plays fairly well
on the organ. The ''Beptlet' while a
fine organ has not that characteristic
tone that the Grown" possesses. The
next morning. finding that the waters
had subsidized somewhat, the trip was
resumed, reaching home at 9 o'clock
A. NJ, being thankful for the many acts
of kindness conferred during my three
days trip.

JUDGE EMERSON has a communica-
ton in this issue explanatory of his
letter of last week. We are still of
the opinion that he in that letter least
aside his usual judicial caution" but
cordially agree with his declaration
that 'sfactions sometimes go wrong,
but the whole people never" And We
contend that the REGISTERS criticism
of the Judges letter was fully justified
by his concluding paragraph, reading
as follows:
Whatever the faction in jefferson
county opposed to Judge Green for the
alleged reasons, may demand, l hope
the Democrats of the other counties
will nave the courage and the man
hood to stamp Jefferson county clamor
with disapproval, and stand by the
man Judge Green) who has dared to
rise above local clamor, and act i'm
partially on the Bench, according to
the lar and the evidence"

She was married to Nathan Barlow

Asleep in Jesus! blessed rest
Has come to her at last,
And borne away a precious soul
To its eternal home.
n tranquil smile was on her face
When laid beneath the sod,
Which told of an abiding faith
And a soul at peace with God.
We will miss her cheerful ready smiles
In the days which are to come,
But all! how sadly will she be missed
In the dear old family home.
Oh God in mercy comfort those
Poor stricken hearts this day
To whom life seems a cherries void
Without of light one ray.
And may this thought console them,
Their peace and hope restore,
Their loved ones are not lost to them
But simply gone before.

THERE is more than the usual pathos
in the Republics account of the funeral
of the late Adolphus Busch, Jr., which
took place last Sunday:
One week ago yesterday, when the
bells of Eastertide were resounding
from half hundred church belfries.
with notes proclaiming the glorious
spirit of the resurrection feast, the
Busch residence and the spacious
grounds surrounding were alive with
the merry shouts of children; Mrs.
Busch, in fitting accord with the char
acter of the occasion, had invited 100
of her little friends to celebrate the
day, All was sunshine and happiness
and good cheer, and the generous hos
tess and her appreciative young friends
beamed with gladness until night fell
and closed the days mirth. Yester-
day afternoon the bright, warm rays
of beautiful April sun again shone
on the Busch residence and the spac-
ious grounds surrounding, but 1t cast
no light on the dark, sorrowing coun-
teuances of the family and the thous-
auds congregated to pay the last tribute
to the dead. The little friends were
there, too, not to accept hospitality,
but to extend sympathy. 1t was the
occasion of the funeral of Adolphus
Busch. Jr.. the pathetic climax of
events that mark the week as a pecu-
liarly memorable one in the Busch
family. There were fully
800 carriages in line. as well as d
number of buggies and one-horse We
hicles. The procession moved slowly,
and it was o'clock when it reached
Bellefountaine. where the interment
took place. Five large express wag-
ons were required to take the flowers
to the burying ground. The services
ut the grave were similar in simplicity
to those at the house. The same
quartet sang, and a horn band played
appropriate pieces. Mr.. Charles Ma
gel delivered an address in English.
He spoke briefly. but in such a sympa-
thetic and feeling vein that many of
his hearers, not related to the deceas-
ed, broke into tears and wept with
those nearer and dearer to the one who
was being laid to rest. The services
concluded, the casket was lowered into
the grave beside the remains of the
deceased's brother, Edward, and his
grandfather, +. Anheuser. Then all
that was mortal of s'Bolfy'' Busch.
prince of good fellows, was returned
to mother earth. There were tears
for his memory and flowers for his
tomb.

A NEPHEW.

Louie Thomas, son of Alex and Lena
Thomas, near Graniteville, was born
March 18th, 1897, and died April 4th,
1898.
Little Louie had been sick for some
time, although he seemed bright and
bore his sufferings to the last. Little
Louie was a bright little fellow and
was loved and liked by all who knew
him. The night before he died he
was put to bed as usual, thinking he
would be better when morning came.
But when morning came Little Louie
was cold in death. Death had come
in the dead hour of night and took
him from his mothers arms to that
golden home.
Little Louie, we do miss you,
With hair like chains of gold,
But we know the angels are with you
And suffering will be no more.
