Death of w. L. Branham.

Washington Lafayette Branlam died 1t the home sf Dr. J. T. Brown Saturday. January a6. 1901. aged 13 years. Brother Brsnham was bern in Tennes- see and reared in Alabama; came with his parents to St. Francis county, Ark in 1851; was confederate soldier. Married cameiia Ann Knowlton in 1870, to whom ten children were born. His good wife and seven children have preceded him. As citizen. Brother Branham was an honorable, upright man, always observ- ing the golden rule--''Do unto others as you would they should do unto you''-his word was his bond.
 Uncle Fate, as he was familiarity called, was beloved by all who knew him. both young and old. If he had an enemy he never knew it.
 As Christian he was ever faithful 10 the teachings of the Bible. He told us only few days before he died that hs did not dread death; 1t was only the suffering he had to un dergo before, for he was ready at any time.
 Brother Bonham professed religion when young man, and joined the Cum berland Presbyterian church. with which he remained until 1895, when he join. d the Tuni NJ. E. church (the Cumberland Presbyterian church of which he was member having disbanded.) He was a true Christian; ever ready to do all in his power for the cause of his Redeemer.
 He leaves two sons and a daughter. be- sides numerous relatives and friends to mourn his death. Greye not for Uncle Fate: though dead in the flesh his spirit is with the angels in heaven, singing praises to his God, whom he served so faithfully on earth. He has passed over the river to receive his reward.
 May we all emulate his example aud it will not be long till we will join him and all the ransomed hosts of God in the beautiful beyond A FRIEND.

Biackrish Lake Times.

MR. EDIToR.-It seems strange that month after month passes by and yet no udlngs from thls ia. vored and progressive section ap- pears in your valued columns, so I venture, in my simple way, to let tho readers of THE TIMES know that Blackfish Lake is still on the map, and give a few pointers as to the present and future importance of this, the ceming section of St. FrancIs county.
 will first state that about twelve months ago, the sawmill firm of Rumage X Myers, of Troy, Tenn, purchased several thousand acres of valuable timber and agri- cultural lands, including the home of Peter Larrive, Tn this vicinity, and have erected on their property a frst-class sawmill of 30, ,000 fee, capacity, a large hotel, store house, large barn, half a dozen tenement houses, and are now contemplating tho erection of church and school building. in the latter, however, they very properly expect the co. operation O. the school directors of the township. as there IS no school building in many miles of this fast growing community. Heretofore the schools have been conducted in the private resi- dence of our worthy and accommod ating artizan, Mir. Pope Landrum on the military road, one and one half miles up the lake.
 In addition 10 the present working force of some thirty men, including several families, the mill firm are continually preparing dwellings for a much larger force, which, in order to make it more stable, will bc families.
 The mill is situated at the Pete Larrive homestead on the lake. three miles north of Quigley, a station on the c. o. X G. railroad. The firm is now comforting with the railroad officials concerning the building of standard guage railroad from Quigley to the mill, over which, if constructed, regu- lar railroad traffic, in the way of frcights and lumber, will be con. ducted.
 MT. George Rumage, son of the senior member of the firm. a young man of pleasant address and ster- Ing business qualities, is in charge of the new enterprise and who has an eye 10 the proper entertainment of all whe may visit the lake to on joy its fishing and hunting privi- leges, by providing hotel and boat accommodations.
 Blackfi fish Lake IS the ideal resi. dent portion of the St. Francis bottom; it's waters clear and deep. with high banks which extend far back into the surrounding country, quite a portion of which is owned by citizens of the company, among whom are Pope Landrum, Ed Berry and Capt. J. G. Stern, of Madison, LaDdvoigt X Vadakin, and NJ. N. Games, of Forrest City. all of whom have beautiful and valuable tracts on the lake front and vicinity.
 More settlers are needed 10 de. velop this garden spot. Land ranges in price from s2.50 to $500 per acre. The latter. lake fronts.
