"The Merry MIX Maids"

The Merry Milk Maids at Calithenic' IS
Hall last night was a most brilliant
success. Prof. Snyder crowned him
self by the proficiency and ability
shown in the rendition and makeup
of the operetta. French Opera could
claim no more finished an artist or
delightful a singer than the Queen of
Dairy Maids, Mrs. Snyder. Miss Bon
ME Hill, as Dorothy, was charming in
her role and the trio in Part First by
herself, Mrs. Snyder and Mr.. Ragsdale
has been heretofore unsurpassed in
Brookhaven.
A quartette of talented gentlemen
of local fame, added greatly to the
evenings attractions. Mr.. j. w. Nc
Grath, as the Judge, was greatly in
evidence, while Martin Flood, j. j.
McGrath, George Greenwood and j. M.
Ragsdale each won distinction in his
role. The latter's voice, musical, sym
pathetic and resonant, augmented de-
cidedly the success of the play. Geo.
Greenwood appeared regular play
wright and to hear him once is tore
member him forever.
Prof. Snyder has written his name
indelibly upon the memory of all
Brookhaven in attendance and those
who did not attend missed a rare treat.
Will not the Professor repeat the
evening? We earnestly trust he will.

Tribute of Respect by New Prospect
Baptist Church.
Whereas, An all-wise Providence has
seen fit to call from time to eternity
our pastor, Rev. E. p. Douglass; and,
Whereas, His family has in his death
sustained an irreparable loss, the
country one of it's best citizens, and
the Baptists of Mississippi one of their
deepest and most consecrated minis
tiers; Therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the New Pros
pect Baptist Church, do extend to his
bereaved family our heartfelt sympa-
thies, and pray Gods blessings upon
them.
He was pastor of this church three
years. His noble life was a constant
illustration of Christ's divinity, rower
to save and sustain through this entire
existence.
We shall miss that quiet and gentle
Christian influence he welded among
our people, and yet he will ever live in
the hearts of those who knew him.
Resolved, That in order that the peo-
pie may know the high esteem in which
we held Brother Douglass as pastor
of this church, that these resolu-
tions be published in THE LEADER,
and spread on our minutes, also a
copy Of them given to his family.
Done in conference June the 3, 1899.

Trisa,e Of Res peet by Fair River
CherA.

Whereas. our Heavenly Father, on
the I'D OF May ,f09o. n his unknown and
all wise providence, did remove from
our midst and frOm ours pastorate our
dearly beloved Ykiend, brother, and pas
tor, Rev. E. p. Douglass, who was bap-
tized into the fellowship of this church
in 1860 and was member of this
church for six years and had spent his
entire life in our midst; who had been
our beloved pastor for eleven years
and who, we believe, has been faithful
in all his ministry; whose praise is in
all the churches where he has preached;
and though having his portion of the
trials and Affections to which humanity
is heir, yet he maintained his integrity
to the last; therefore.
Resolved: First, That in the death
of Brother Douglass, though deep
affection and heavy loss, we bow with
humble submission to this bereaving
providence of our Heavenly Father
who doeth all things we'll. Assuredly
our loss is his eternal gain. Earth
has been made poorer and heaven en-.
riched. a
has lost devoted and loving pastor
the denomination bold and fearless
defender of the doctrine of our holy
religion and whose work will follow
him.
Third, That we will strive to remem.
Der and emulate the example he set us
in life and profit by his faithful in
struotiops while he was with us. We
hope In the "Bye and Bye" to strike
hands with him on the sunny banks OF
everlasting deliverance, where parting
is unknown.
Fourth, That a copy of these resolu.
tions be spread upon the church book
and one he sent to The Baptist, Brook
haven LEADER, and Lincoln County
Times for publication, and copy be
given his bereaved companion.
Done by order of conference Of
Fair River Baptist Church on the
