This is an age Of Encyclopedias, and

Col. McAllister G. Pearce died
in Memphis last Friday, aged 50
years. Col. Pearce was a Mississip-
plan by birth. Prior to the war he
lived at Salisbury He was twice
married. His first wife was lady
of Salisbury, by whom he had one
son, James Arthur, who is engaged
in mining operations in Porto Rico.
After a period of four years the
first wife died and some years later
he married a Miss Cannon, of Red
Banks, Miss. By this union a son
and daughter were boru aud they
survive him. After the war, Col.
Pearce moved to Memphis and es-
tablished the firm of Pearce, Parks
& Co., wholesale grocers and cotton
factors. Later he withdrew from
this firm and organized that of
Pearce q Suggs, to which Major
Petit was admitted as a partner in
1884. Upon the dissolution of this
firm it was succeeded by Pearce &
Co., which continued successfully
until Col. Pearce was compelled, on
account of disease, to withhold from
it his sasacity and indomitable en-
ergy. For years prior to his death,
Col, Pearce was great sufferer.
He was liberal and public spirited.
His death is loss to Memphis.

IS IT RleHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
 Medicines?

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. C.l
 It may be question whether the
 editor of newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the vari- ous proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as a preventive of suffering we feel it 3 duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine in our family for twenty years and have always found it reliable. In many cases dose of this remedy would save hours of suffering while physician is awaited. We do not believe in depend ing implicitly on any medicine for cure, but we do believe that if bottle of Chmberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very many eases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty years. For sale by Brock ways Pharmacy.

IF Abraham Lincoln were alive to- day he would be called "copperhead" and traitor" for the following utter ance:
 No man is good enough to govern an- other man without that others consent. When the white man governs himself that is self-goyernment; but when he governs him self and also governs another man, that is despotism. Our reliance is in the the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men in all lands, everywhere. Those who deny freedom, deserve 1t not for them selves"

The leading commercial organiza- tions of California, ably seconded by the State Press associ Htion, are work ing to have the state take up the ques- tion of the storage of flood waters by means of reservoirs in the mountains. Water has thus been stored in France, Egypt, India and other countries, and the recent drought in California has made it apparent that such a course must be adopted by that state for it's future salvation. The project is entirely feasible not only in oaIifor- mia but in Arizona. This territory can be made one great garden by the storage of the waste water.-[T Tucson Star:

Boss HANNA was recently inter- viewed by newspaper reporter. In reference to the campaign of 1896, Hanna is quoted as saying: ''I made my headquarters at Chicago, and there watched every move made by our opponents just as we would watch 8 game of chess.
