An Old Time Negro Honored.

Frank w. Mccarthy, one Of the
most prominent negroes in Southwest
Georgia, died at his home in Albany
last week. His funeral occurred from
the A. M. E. church and was attended
by an immense concourse OF both
white and blacks. For the first time
in the history of Albany, a town OF
5000 inhabitants, every store and office
was closed in honor Of a negro. no
business being transacted while the
funeral was in progress. Mccarthy
never dabbled in politics, but was pro-
badly the most influential negro in the
county. His death is deplored alike
by white and colored people.

Death of Col. Brown.

Colonel Robert H. Brown died on the
night of May 9Th at his home near Old
Monmouth, Rockbridge county, al
the advanced age of 70 years. His
death was due to old age and general
breaking down of his system.
Colonel Brown was a native of Au-
gusta county. and located in Rock
bridge in early manhood. His military
title was gained during the days when
the old militia was the ideal military
organization. For years previous to
and after the civil war he was engaged
in the manufacture of WOODEN goods.
Brown 8 factory was famous in its day
for its superior quality of goods and
it's reputation has been kept up to the
present. Colonel Brown was twice
married. His first wife was a Miss
Brown, of Walkers 3 Creek, and his Sec
ond wife, Miss Harper, of Kerr's
Creek, who died some years ago. Four
children of the latter marriage survive:
Misses Mary and Patty and Mr.. Fin
ley Brown, who resided with their
father, and Mrs. Maggie Mccormick,
wife of Rev. John Mccormick, of
Texas.
The funeral took place from Ebene-
zer Associate Reformed Presbyterian
church, of which for nearly half a
century he had been a ruling elder, the
services being conducted by Rev. D.
P. Neill. The interment was made in
the grave yard at that church.

Admiral Dewey's Return.

An effort begun in the West to have
Admiral Dewey return by way of San
Francisco, is being supplemented at
Washington. The representative of
one of the large trans-continental rail-
ways called at the Navy Department
and stated that if Admiral Dewey re-
turned by way of San Francisco this
railroad proposed to place at bis
service an entire train. the finest that
ever crossed the continent, and make
it subject to his wishes as to the places
and time of stops on the way east. II
was urged also that this would give
practicallythe whole country an oppor'
tunity to join in the reception to the
hero of Manila, instead of restricting
it to the stretch between New York
and Washington.

Teachers Meetinq.

Supt. Nye held a Teachers meeting
at Muscoda last Saturday. A class of
twenty-seycn teachers engaged in the
schools in that vicinity. including
twelve teachers from Boscobel, spent
the day very pleasantly and profitably
in discussing the following topics;
Orthoepy Reading in the three Forms,
Language in the Primary, Middle and
Upper Forms and School Management.
Three of the Boscobel teachers read
papers on Language and three Of the
Muscoda teachers presented the sub
ject Of Reading. j. @. Dougherty.
former principal OF the Grammar de-
partment Of Muscoda, but now teach
ing at Ayoca, presented The subject Of
Orthoepy. The papers were well
written, clear and incisive and showed
experimental knowledge of the sub
jects treated. They were freely dis
cussed and much good will doubtless
result from the free interchange and
expression OF thought and opinion.
A similar meeting will be held in
Lancaster on Saturday, Jan. 10, at
the High school room. Program not
yet arranged. President McGregor OF
the State Normal at Platteville will
address the teachers in the afternoon
and a large and interesting meeting
is anticipated.

The Bazaar.

The bazaar held last week by the
ladies of the Cemetery association was
a success beyond all expectation.
Everything seemed favorable; even
.Old Prob smiled upon the enter
prise and sent us two very pleasant
days. The circular letter sent out
two months ago brought in generous
contributions Of saleable articles or
money from more than twenty per-
sons in almost as many states-from
the District of Columbia to the Pacific
coast, from northern Minnesota to
southern Missouri; besides what was
contributed by our home people. An
other circular letter sent to wholesale
firms brought in over a dozenncontri-
buttons, some OF them very choice
articles. Our own business men were
also liberal with their gifts.
The housewives who were asked TO
contribute toward the supper on Fri
day evening were ready to do their
part.
The committee having the bazaar
in charge feel like giving vote of
thanks to all these parties as we'll as
to the lumberman, the drayman, the
painter, the candymakers, the car
penters, the printers, the proprietors
OF the City opera house and the Elec-
trio Light Plant, who so cordially
gave money or time, which is its
equivalent, toward the enterprise.
With such hearty cooperation how
could it be otherwise than financial
success, something over $500 90 being
the net proceeds.
At the opening on thursday after
noon the opera house presented quite
a gay and festive appearance; booths
were arranged on both sides, taste
fully draped in bunting and flags,
draperies festooned with holly etc.
In a retired corner was the fotune
teller's booth; on the north side, the
apron, picture gallery, and fancy
work booths; on the south side, the
candy, ice cream, and doll booths.
In the center of the room, the Japan
csc booth, where tea was served by
native women in costume, attracted
considerable attention.
On Thursday evening little pro-
gram of picture and song, with aread-
ing by Mr.. Lyman, brought in neat
little sum, and again vote of thanks
to the participants.
Friday evening supper was served
to over two hundred people. At s
o'clock the name of the doll, present.
ed and named by Miss Watts, was an
nounced to be Philllpena Dewey and
Miss Elizabeth Schmitt declared the
fortunate guesser.
Then Mr.. Hyde mounted the auction
GERS block and disposed Of the articles
remaining unsold, thus closing one of
the most successful bazaars ever held

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought Of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bill

they seldom heard Of Appendicitis,
Nervous Prostitution or Heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation OF undigested food, regul-
ate the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head.
