one OF Marietta's purest and loveliest
young ladies. Miss Kate Page. afte,
ten days sickness with typhoid fever
passed peacefully away on THURSDAY
night last few minutes before twelve
O'Clock, at her home on Washington
avenue. She was 35 yeass of age and
was the daughter of Mrs. E. A. Page
She was one of the most amiable char.
acters we ever knew, always kind in
speech, loving in disposition and pleas
ant in greeting. All who knew her
loved her. But death loves SHINING
mark, and she fell victim to its cruel
shaft.
She was born and raised in Marietta
and was we'll known. She was a MEM

and conversation gave evidence of de-
votion and conservation to the Masters
cause.
The deceased leaves a mother Mrs. F

Frank Page, of Pensacola, Fla: also
an aunt, Mrs. l.. G. STRIPPING, and a
cousin. Mr.. Ed. M. Cook.
To the sorrowing family, mother, sis
ters and brothers, there goes out the
tenderest sympathy of all hearts. In
these light Affections which lasteth but
day, there is Hope, Remembrance,
Faith and Resignation to whatever
comes in LIES changing pathway, to
comfort and console those near and
dear to the departed one. "And God
shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes, and there shall be no more death,
nor sorrow, nor crying, neither shall
be any more pain, for the former things
are passed away"
Gods hopes fills the hearts that bleed !;
The best fruit loads the broken bough,
And wounds sufferings plough;
immortal love sows sovereign seed"

Baptist church Friday afternoon at 8

liquor in that town. With such fines
blind tigers" cannot last long in Car
rollton.-Tailapoosa Journal.
Such fines helps the cause wonder
fully. Judge Gober has placed $500 or
twelve months on several parties for
similar offense, but there soon pops up
some one who is willing to take the
chance and he or she sells the vile stuff
in "blind tiger" again. The failure
to stop the violation of the prohibition
law is on the same principle that one
fellow will enter house at night and
commit burglary, and serves four years
for it. First thing you know another
fellow commits burglary, not having
been deferred by the punishment in
tiicted on the other fellow for the like
crime. But no one would think OF
abolishing the law against burglary be-
cause it doesn't absolutely prohibit.
The certainty of punishment does de-
ter many wickedly disposed persons
from perpetrating like crimes. That
is what law is for, to protect society.
