take a faithful and lively interest
in the work

one of great pleasure and resulted in
great benefit to her health.

: ten for the past week. He buried two
: children from tbs same house and
} same family.
I Mr.. r. L Turpin doesn't hesitate Il
intrude upon the weather with hi
white duck suit and hat. he looked
; the other day like a fellow who haC
! been fishing and the boat capsized.
e. Last Monday night cutting scrap,
occurred on Broad street. near Brood
Q avenue, between two men, named Tay

y Moore. We hope all the parents Sc
L th&good accomplished.

"a had a serious fall last Sunday nigh
while returning home from church
II During the rain the sidewalks are I'll
Il ed with washouts, and 1t being yer

e lady was trying to avoid the pools an
q eTreams Of water slipped and fell.
= little cost to repair the street wi
" doubtless save the city the cost Of
,. big suit in the future.
II Gov. Tyler is all right at heart. TIL
2 delay in having the colored soldie1
Y properly assigned only goes "a sho'
that ne is surrounded By bad adviser
= Right is right
Since God is God,
& And right the day will win,
To falter will be disloyalty,
To doubt it would be sin.
