Mr. Weilder had slight operation 10 be
performed upJn his throat, which, how
ever, was not thought to be serious. Full
particulars OF his death are not known,
but it is announced that IL occurred at or
shortly after the operation. Instructions

A child OF Mr.. and Mis-. Walter Cheat
ham, living Oh Freeman's Heights, died
yesterday OF scarlet fever.
MIR. W. T. Bissonette, the inventor OF
the round bale system OF ginning, has
just perfected another style OF press.
which il Is claimed is as radical a change
over the present round bale system as a.,
that system over the old square bale. TIE
new Bissonette press does away with roll
lers and following blocks as heretofore
used in compreseing the round bales and
supplements wire cables, giving a density
equal to any system and with compaoa-
lively no machinery and but little power.
Mr.. Bissonette has placed an order for
an outfit of three stands, boiler and engine
accompanying. which he will put up here
in Temple simply for exhibition purposes
