Thursday Night.
BACK TO CHILDHOOD DAYS
Goes Mr.. Cores memoryA tou ching
Letter from Brother to sister.

A few days ago we published notice
of the celebration of the seth anniversa-
ry of the marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Bar
ton Core, of Cassville, this county, and
the assembling of their children at the
old home on that occasion
VIM. p. Core, one # the sons who re-
sides at Boothsville, aas unable to at
tend and wrote his sister Mrs. Cordray
the following letter:
DEAR SISTER In answer to your
note | viii say that while we would be
glad to meet with You we find it impos
sible to do so as the roads are bad, the
weather uncertain and our meeting is
going on. so we cannot leave home, but
/ am sure we would enjoy the gathering
very much.
The fifty.sixth anniversary of our par
ents' marriage. the long number OF
years they have been travelling together
no doubt. seems short to them, Just as
ours DO when we look back to the days
OF our childhood, and when we are car
ried back in memory to those days and
think of our pleasures and sorrows as
we thought of them then and remember
the times when we thought our parents
harsh; what different lesson years of
experience have taught us Did we have
those years to live over again we would
not give them 50 many heart aches,
would not be 80 thoughtless as then
but those years are gone forever and all
that is left for US is to try to forget them
and hope that our parents may forget
them and only remember the things
that tend to strengthen the bonds of
love and sympathy that bind parents
and children and brothers and sisters
together.
| often think OF father and mother,
brothers and sisters when get lonely
and it seems to me that need them and
their love and sympathy and father
and mother as much now as ever | did
in childhood DAYS.
SADIE joins me in sending our love and
good wishes to you all and wishing you
a pleasant time together we will be with
you in thought.on that day.
Tell them all you received this so
they will know that | remem berthem.
With Love to all, your brother

Bonds for the Marion Court House

The Marion county court has de
dided to submit proposition to the
voters of that county which is arous-
ing a great deal of interest in the
citizens of that county. They have
ordered an election to be held on
March 10Th to pass on the PROPOSE
tion to issue 100000 worth of bonds
to build the new court house. The
election is bound to be hot one
and the rival forces are already lin
ing up for the fray. The people who
were disappointed in their efforts to
get new county out of part of the
old county will be unanimously op-
posed to the plan and will vote sol
idly against it. The foundation for
the court house has been completed
and the work has stopped for lack
of funds to finish it,

some excuse for profanity when it
comes from the rougher half, but
when it comes from lips that gener-
ally speak of sweeter things, it shocks
and disgusts. Women are too deli

Beautiful music Rendered. Informal
talks with the Doctor.
Fully 300 women assembled in the
audience room OF the Baptist church
Satu rday afternoon to hear Dr.
Jones, of Wheeling, talk ON "Hered-
ity." Miss Mabel Reynolds, the
president of the League presided.
After announcing the speaker with
appropriate remarks, she informed
DIR. Jones that the league had unan
imously elected her an honorary
member.
DR. Jones responded gracefully.
saying that she was member OF
many organizations, but that no 9th
er membership gave her so much
pleasure, for the Woman's League
was exciting much favorable com
ment evseywhere. The speaker then
proceeded to discuss the subject of
''Heredity.o She treated the subject
in thorough ly scientific manner,
dwelling longest ON the effects on
posterity Of the use of alcoholic
drinks and tobacco. She showed
that it was crime against offspring
and humanity at large to indulge in
the use of stimulants. The address
was remarkably solemn one, as
was testified by the stiffness of the
room while Dr. Jones was speaking.
Beautiful music was rendered by
Misses Jessie Moorhead and Olive
Pierce A statement regarding the
sale of tickets for the entertainment
course projected by the League, was
made by Miss Egbert. The meeting
then adjourned, but nearly all
fingered to talk with DR. Jones in
formally.
DR. Jones expressed herself as de-
lighted with the work of the Wom-
ans League, and with the large and
enthusiastic membership. Nearly
every woman connected with the I'm
iversity is member of the League,
and the associate membership is
rapidly increasing.
The next literary program will
occur Feb. 26. The occasion will be
readings by Miss Winifred Gray, of
Chicago.

ling In their Town.
Fairmont has a law and order So
ciety composed OF the very best wo-
men of the city and they have de-
clared war on all forms of lawless-
ness in which liquor selling is part.
They are determined that the houses
of ill-fame with which the town is
infested must 60. They will confer
with the proper authorities about
the enforcement of the law and will
endeavor in that way to rid the
community of the pest. The papers
up there say that the inmates of the
houses are so bold that they ply
their trade on the streets in daylight
and have become active in trying to
get recruits for the illicit traffic from
the town. SO intolerable has it be-
come that it cannot be stood any
longer and the women are going to
put stop to the thing if it can be
done. Mrs. Jennie Engle. wife OF
the presiding elder of Clarksbure
district, was chosen as chairman and
Mrs. Fannie Amos was selected as
secretary. A committee composed
of Mrs. w. r. White, Mrs. B. L.
Butcher and Miss Kate Ebert were
appointed to wait on the officials and
to act with them in suppressing the
things they are after.

SUSPECT KILLED BY A SHOT.
Fatal BULLET FIRED AT HIM As
HE WAS FLEEING.

Sherif's Posse Takes In the Chase
the Next Day-PosSe DisincIined To
Reveal the Identity of the Man
Who Did the shoOting-The Dead
Man wanted on Suspicion That lie
Assassinated joe Crimson.
Augusta. Ga, Jan. 22.-An outrageous
assassination last night was followed up
this afternoon by the killing by officers
of a man who was under suspicion OF be
ing the assassin, but against whom there
was no positive proof at the time OF the
killing.
Last night a negro named Joe Brlnsoh'
who lived on a farm few miles from the
city, was stopping at 1851 Marbury street
with his son-in-law. Jim Pryor, in the
southern outskirts of town. These two,
with brother of the younger man, were
sitting around the fire talking last night
with no thought of danger, when some
body fired through the window, killing
the old man and seriously wounding his
eon-in-law, Jim Pryor.
There was only one shot fired, but the
gun was heavily charged with slugs and
several entered the head of the dead man,
and two struck Pryor. All the wounds
were in the back of the head.
Joe Pryor escaped unhurt, but saw no
body.
Whoever did the shooting made good
his escape.
The matter was promptly reported to
the officers, and for some reason suspi-
cion pointed to Arthur Jennings as a
man who either did the shooting or knew
something about it. He lived in the neigh
borhood of the murdered man. and had
made threats against him.
Several officers rode out to Jennings
house last night and surrounded it. Jen-
nings was out under bond for some mis-
demeanor, and when the officers knocked
at his door about 2 O'Clock at night, he
told him that his bondsmen had gone off
his bond and they wanted him in custody
Jennings, talking from the inside, Sd I'd
that it was a strange time of night to
bother a man about such a thing.
According to the story of the officers, the
next development was when Jennings sud
denly leaped out of his back door and
made a break for liberty
Seeing an officer in front of him, Jen-
nings fired point blank at him, but MISS
ed. Several shots were fired at the fu-
gitive, but he escaped.
This afternoon Sheriff OConnoa, Jailer
Collins, two or three deputies and one or
two outsiders made up a posse which sur
rounded another negro house a few miles
from the city in which Jennings had been
located. The officers are very non-com-
municative as to details, but it seems that
Jennings made another break for liberty,
and as he ran out of the house somebody
shot him dead.
Nobody seems to know or cares to say
who fired the shot and the coroner's in
quest did not determine. The coroner S
verdict simply declares that Arthur Jen-
nings came to his death from a gunshOt
wound.

TO WED TOM REEDS NEPHEW.
MARION MANoLA MAsON's DAUGH-

The Enlargement a Secret for Several
Months Past and the Young Couple
Afraid to Have the Speaker Learn
of It-Met While She Was at
School in Maine-PrOpOses to Re-
main an Actress Until She Sees All
She Wants of Stage Life.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 22.-AIiss Adelaide Ma
son, daughter of Marion Manola Mason,
the actress, entered plea Of guilty to an
engagement of marriage to a nephew of
Speaker Tom Reed, of the national House
of Congress, to-day. The prospective
grooms name is Charles Dana Burrows,
and he lives in the family of his distin-
guished uncle
Miss Mason is here filing part with the
company of her mother, this being her
first season on the stage. She is just II
and decidedly pretty. She says she
met Mr.. Burrows while at school in Port
land, and became engaged to marry him
several months ago, but the engagement
has been kept profound secret because
of the trouble it is expected to stir up in
the young mans family.
1t, and it was not the intention that he
should until the marriage took place.
When seen by local reporters to-day
Miss Mason begged them not to say any
thing in the papers about the engage
ment, and insisted that if they did print
anything, to say that she was engaged to
Mr.. Eustis of New York who was for
merly private secretary to Gov. David B.
Hill. She said she preferred this engage
ment TO be believed, because there would
be row when Tom Reed heard of his
favorite nephew's matrimonial intentions
Miss Mason was educated at the George
town convent, and if she should remain
on the stage, which she says she will not
when She marries Mr.. Burrows, she would
undoubtedly make a success. Her idea
was, she said, to see as much as she
wanted to of stage life when she would
keep her marriage engagement with the
young man from Maine and settle down
in private life. If her fears are well
founded, the publication of the story Ct
her betrothal may cause plans to so
astray, In which event the story will be
good "ad' for her any way.

at the infrmary this morning from the
injuries he received in the wreck beyond
Ashby Junction yesterday
Engineer Nicely and Mail Clerk Bingham
are both still alive, but are not expected
to recover.
Coroner Rivers made up a jury to-day
for the purpose of investigating the coils
ion, but the hearing was adjourned until
material witnesses were able to appear
The Railroad Commissioners of the state
came to the city to-day and visited the
scene OF the wreck
After partial examination, they gave
out the following for publication: 1.-THE
commissioners went to the scene Of the
accident and are of the opinion, before in
vestigating the facts, that the collision
was impossible If the company's rules had
been observed. The commissioners are
advised that dense fog prevailed at the
time. The board will further investigate
when the principal witnesses are able to
testify"
This would seem to throw the blame for
the tragedy upon the crews of the wreck
ed trains, and 1t is possible that the future
may find a case brought into court against
them.

GRIGGs' NAME SENT IN.
The President dominates McKenna's
SuccesSOr

Successor.
Washington, Jan 22.-The President sent
the following nominations to the Senate
to-day:
John w. Griggs of New Jersey, to be
Attorney General.
Selah Morrill, of Massachusetts. to be
consul at Jerusalem, Syria.
To Be Collector of Customs-Domingo
Pappy at St. Augustine, Fla.

Walter S. Robinson, register of the land
Office at Gainesville. Fla.
John F. Horr, marshal of the United
Sattes for the Southern district of Florida.
John Eagan, attorney of the United
States for the Northern district of Flor
ida.
Mr.. Griggs is at present Governor of
New Jersey. It was unofflcially an
nounced several weeks ago that he would
succeed Mr.. McKenna.
John William Griggs is native of Sus-
sex county, New Jersey, where he was
born in 1919. He graduated from Lafay-
cite College in 1869 and was licensed as an
attorney in 1871, and later became a mem

JENKINS STILL SILENT.
no Announcement Yet Made by the
Speaker as to His Intentions.

Atlanta Ca, Jan. 22.-Speaker jenkins
left for his home in Eatonton this morn
ing without authorizing any statement as
to his intentions with regard to the Gov
ernorship.
1t was expected that he would make
some kind of an announcement to-day
after the appearance of Col. Gamblers an
nouncement
Those who know the speaker well are
still inclined to the opinion that he will
be a candidate and that his announcement
will be forthcoming in a few days. He
took copy of Col. Gamblers letter home
with him to study it, and possibly to use
it in framing his own.
One of the significant facts in connec-
ton with the expected candidacy of Mr.
Jenkins is that Attorney General Terrell
is said to be using the strongest endeav-
ors to get him into the race. This may
mean that the same forces supposed to be
backing the erstwhile boom of the Attor-
ney general are ready 10 support the Jen-
kins boomlet, and then, again, it may only
mean that Col. Terrell just wants to see
the speaker in the race, so as to get an
idea of what Col. Gambler would have
done to him if he had stayed in

the Republicans will be willing to assist
