FOUR CERTAIN WINNERS.

There is hardly reasonable doubt that
Congressman Swanson, Otey, Hay and
Rixey will all succeed themselves in the
Fifty-seventh Congress. It has been a long
time since any of these districts were rep
resented by Republicans, and with the
favorable conditions that exist in the DEM
acratic ranks throughout the State this
year, the incumhents will almost certain
ly be reelected.
Following are the majorities by which
they were chosen in 1898:
Swanson over Parr, Republican, 1862.
Otey over two Republican opponents. s.
COS
Hay over o'Flaherty, Gold Democrat, g.
800.
Rixey over three opponents, $3.50.
SO it will be seen that there is not much
chance for the Republicans TO capture
any OF these districts, however hopeful
they may be of carrying some OF the 9th
ers in the State.

Ii is Well With the Child.

After an illness of ten DAYS, MARI
Eta, infant daughter and only child
of Mr.. and Mrs. Alex J. Check. died
Sunday night at five minutes past two
o'clock. The death Of this little girl
us peculiarly sad. She WAS beauti-
full child, strong. healthy and unusu-
ally well developed for her aye the
idol of the household and pet of all
who knew her. Medical skill and care
full and loving attention did all posi-
BILE to save the precious young life,
but God wanted this jewel and gath
cred the gem for His kingdom.
She would have been two years old
in September. But brief as her stay
upon earth was she lived long enough
for the sweet perfume of her young
life to permeate mothers and faith
er's heart, and to entwinc herself in
every fibre of their being. And while
little Eta will be sleeping the last
long sleep beneath a little mound out
in the silent city of the dead, the i'm
age of that little form. the sweet child
voice and the patter OF baby feet will
ever linger upon the heart and in the
ears of those to whom this tender hui
man flower was so dear and precious.
The funeral was held at 10 o'clock
Tuesday morning, the interment be-
ing made at the cemetery.

Thoroughly Appreciative.

Mr.. Henry Thomson has so far re-
covered from his protracted and Sc
we're sickness as to entertain hopes
of soon being able to get up town
again. He has had quite hard time
of it being sick little over five weeks
and suffering intensely much of the
time. And yet with it all he finds
consolation in the fact that ii was not
worse and there comes to him out of
his troubles comfort in the thought
of the many acts Of kindness and
sympathy shown by neighbors and
friends during the days and weeks
Of WEAKNESS and suffering. For all
of which Mr.. Thomson is thoroughly
appreciative and being still too feeble
to use his pen and unable to see each
one in person he asks us to convey as
surances of the deep sense of appre-
citation and gratitude he feels for
every kindness shown, for offers of
services and interest felt in his be-
half.

A Hint to the Wise?

The Hartselle (Ala.,) Enquirer
throws out the following hint for the
benefit of delinquent newspaper sub
scribe
1T is an experience of publishers
that too many people are apt to think
it matters but little whether the news
paper bill is paid promptly or not,
that it is a small sum and is Of but
little consequence. This is not be
cause the subscribers are unwilling
to pay, but rather because they are
negligent. Each one imagines be-
cause his years Indebtedness amounts
to a small sum, the publisher cannot
be much in want of it. without for a
moment thinking that the income Of
a newspaper is made up Of just such
small amounts. and that the aggre
gate of all subscriptions is by no
means an inconsiderab,e sum of
money, without which, publishers
could not continue to issue their paper.
The proper way is to pay in advance
and there is no trouble"

His Name In the Paper.

Our Juvenile friend Macy Rowland
showed us an Indian hen the other
day and might have made us believe
the bird victim Of his own fowling
piece but for what we saw little
while later. Macy was wading up to
his knees in the basin Of the fountain
in Railroad Square catching tadpoles
in his hat. Now we don't believe q
boy who can shoot gun and kill
birds would do a thing like that, and
il he did he would know a red tail fish
from a tadpole. II Macy has killed
any kind OF hen we'll bet it was one
of his mothers old setting hens. But
whether he or his father shot the
Indian hen the young man has got his
name in the paper.
