MoBLEY-DrED at her home
near Reeds Creek, Sharp county,
Ark, Monday February 26, at
$40 o'clock a. m. 1900, age 81
years, 7 months and II days,
Mrs, Amanda H, wife of Esq.
Calvin Mobley, and daughter of
Col. Joseph c. MCGEE.
She was born in the state of
Tennessee, July 10, 1888. Her
father migrated from Tennessee
to this state with little Amanda,
who was but an infant, and
erected the house in which she
died, In the sweet and tender
days Of childhood she gave her
young heart to God-in the year
1858. She lived and died a con-
sistent member of the M. E.
Church South. She married
Uncle Calvin Mobiey February
% 1859.
Our esteemed friend, by her
daily walk and upright conduct
through life, gained for herself
the esteem Of all whom it has
been their pleasure to form her
acquaintance. In the death Of
Mrs. Mobley we realize the fact
that the community has lost one
of her noblest women. She
leaves a husband two daughters
and an only son to mourn their
loss. The husband in his declin-
ing years has lost a kind, affec-
Tomato wife, the children a loving
mother whose loss is irreparable.
In the loss Of our friend we are
again reminded of the uncertainty
Of life and the certainty Of death.
That it has been our privilege to
know the deceased from early
childhood and regarding her
beautiful christian life "the half
has not been told" She is dead
but in influence, is living. May
dc c3EVvlan Influence Of the
sainted mother be used by rel
atives and friends and owned and
blessed by the good and morciful
One in bringing the remainder of
the family home to their dear one
in Heaven.
We join the many friends in
deepest sympathy with the be-
reaved husband and grief-strick-
Q / children.
Cheer up sad hearts and cease
repining,
Behind the clouds the sun is
shining
The fate is common fate Of all
Into each life some rain must fall.

Rev. Chas. M. Sheldon will run
the Topeka Capital one week
beginning March 10, in the way
that he thinks Christ would run
it. This leads Ed Howe, Of the
Atcaison Globe, to ask if this is
the style that Rev. Sheldon would
use in reporting a fight;
Behold, it came to pass that
Corbett and Jeflries did even meet
in the ring yeste clay. And 10,
Jefrries girded up his loins and
encompassed Corbott round about
and smote him with great poten-
cy. And Corbett lifted up his
voice and said; "Why sluggeth
thou me?" And, behold, JotIrios
grew exceeding wroth, and smote
his antagonist hip and thigh, that
it might be fulfilled which was
spoken Of by the prophet; "Yea,
the boiIer-makor shall ever give
the pompadour some dizzy pokes.
And it came TO pass that the CEN
turion rang the bell and the slug
gers returned tc their corners and
were refreshed with locusts and
honey, And, behold there was
much uproar in the galleries,
caused by the scribos and phar-
isees and hypocrites who had put
up their shekols on Jolirios, And
il was even So"

HON. F. G.. TAYLOR.

In this issue we present tc
Sharp county democrats the
name of Judge Felix G. Taylor,
of Craighead county,, who is a
candidate for congress from the
First district.
Mr.. Taylor now holds the Of
flee of circuit judge in the Second
circuit, the largest circuit in the
state, and his record as such Off
cial, according to the action of
the supreme court as regards
reversals, is among the best, if
not the best, This fact shows
Judge Taylor to be possessed of
the ability and sound judgment
required of a member of congress.
On the political questions Of the
day, Judge Taylor stands square,
ly with the democratic party, and
will always be fouad willing to
defend the principles of democ-
racy. In the halls Of congress s
Judge Taylor, with his thorough
ly democratic principles and the
courage to defend them, would be
a credit to the First district.
Judge Taylor made many friends
during his recent visit to Sharp
county, who will take a pleasure
in remembering him at the polls.
