ings, it is reported, the Warden takes his

Boyd, who makes ont commitment
despite the fact that the man whose name
it bear may have left the Jail several hours
before. For each commitments the Mayor
is supposed to get 40 cents, and the sheriff
receives 80 cents for the commitment and
incidentals and 20 cents for the board OF
each person in the Jail, making total
cost Of 93 cents. The Levy Court has
called on its attorney, John H. Rodney, to
decide whether the bill is equally correct.
The Court doubts whether Mayor Boyd can
act az n Tustice OF the Peace and whether
his commitment Of a person for vagrancy is
legal when the commitment is made out
after the person has been admitted to the

10 months and 16 days. Funeral SER
vices were held Sunday, May 18th. at
Second Baptist Church where a large
of Christian friends and citi-
zens gathered. Rev. j. Fl. Calvert,
church pastor, conducted the services,
after which the remains were conveyed
to the Edison cemetery. There the
body was laid to rest.
F. a. Mcfarland spent his early boy
hood and manhood principally at Iron
Mountain, st. Francois county. Was
married in 1868 to Miss M. E. Edison

none better. Being spiritually dis

spent In prayer and supplication to
God. Words of encouragement to the
Christian and advice to the sinners
were words that were heard by all his
friends during his illness. a safely

reavement and lone condition, has the
sympathy of the whole community.
