RAILRoAp ENTERPRIsE.

We call attention to the circular
issued by the Mobile & Ohio Rail-
road Company on the first page of
The Commercial. The company is
evidently preparing for the future
progress of the road and its ada
Cent country. In the immense
improvements already going on
there are signs of greater things
yet TO come. j. Pierpont Morgan
is the head of the system, and that
means more than some people
think. No doubt he will make it
second to no road in the country.
OF course there will be opportuni-
ties for factories and other enter
prises along the route, and Union
City should be ready for anything
that may come our way. We
have talked with Mayor Gardner
and feel sure that he is fully alive
to the interests of Union City and
will leave nothing undone that may
be valuable to its growth and ad
vancement.

Judge swlgEart Announces.

MEMPHIS. July 1O.-Announce-
ment is made to-day OF the candi-
dacy of Judge W. H. Stuttgart, OF
Union City, for Governor of Ten
nessee. He is regarded as the only
West Tennessee man who will
make the race. 1t Is believed by
the talk in this end of the State
that he will carry the full West
Tennessee strength, unless Gov.
McMillin makes the race for third
term. In this event McMillin may
secure the Tenth District, though
this is in serious doubt.
Judge Swiggart is popular here.
He would have entered the race last
tall had Gov. McMillin made a
straight-out race for the Senate.

MASTER CLAUDE WEBSTER,

What sad gloom was cast over
the city last Thursday when a
telephone message brought the
news that Claude, the 14-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. W. e. Web
ster, was dead; and what made it
so much harder, he was the last OF
nine children. Claude had gone to
the Lake on a VISIT He had only
been there few days when he was
taken sick, and everything that
could be done by loving friends and
physician was done, and as he
grew worse a message was sent to
his parents and his mother went TO
her boy at once and brought him
home. Drs. Watson and Napier
and a specialist from Chicago were
called in. The writer spent Tues
day and Tuesday night with him,
and as much as he suffered he never
murmured, but bore his affection
with an humble spirit. Claude was
kind and loving child, loved by
all who knew him and will be great
ly missed. Oh, what blessed
thought that the Savior will never
forget nor forsake us in the hour OF
trouble. Now. papa and mamma,
your darling, the light of home, is
lovingly called to the home OF the
best. He is dead. This is the
short sentence that ends the life OF
all mortals. Oh, how inexpressibly
sad to chronicle this noble young
BOYS death, when the rainbow OF
promise stretched before him like a
glittering web of gold and silver,
In heaven there was an angel band.
But It was not completes;
SO God has taken Master Claude
To all the vacant seat.
A FRIEND.

MS. pHERE D. PALMER

At the old home, few miles from
Union City on the Troy road, Mrs.
Phebe b. Palmer breathed her last
Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock.
Mrs. Palmer was born in Wilcox
County, Ala, May 9, 1926. She
was united in marriage 10 DR.. c.
Palmer in September, 1912. In
November, 1866, they moved to Ten
nessee, locating in Obion County.
The land upon which they settled,
at that time almost a wilderness,
has developed into one of the finest
farming sections in the State. In
the heart of this beautiful country
they built their home. It was only
few years after this when DR..
Palmer died. Mrs. Palmer survived
him in the care of the family of
sons and daughters, of whom there
are three living. D., I. 2. and
L. Palmer. She was member OF
the c. P. Church, Christian moth
er, wise in counsel, and full OF kind
and charitable acts.
Services were held at the City
Cemetery by Rev. Johnson, of Rives,
where the remains were laid to rest.
I. S. BROWN.
The death Of l. S. Brown occurr-
ed In a sanitarium in Cincinnati on
the morning of October 9. He was
born in Linden, Perry County,
Tenn, November II. 1883 When
about sixteen years of age he moved
to Clinton, KY, and in 1876 or 1877
located in Union City. On Febru-
airy, 1888, at the home OF the bride,
near Pleasant Hill, he was united
marriage with Miss May Iris Far
ris, and to this union was born two
sons and three daughters. Mr..
and Mrs. Brown enjoyed the pleas
ure of a happy home and family.
Mr.. Brown was kind and thought
full at home and was generous with
| his friends. He was man OF ex-
ceptional business ability, which
characterized his life, yet broad
minded and philanthropic to a de-
gree little known by his friends,
DIR. Dabney, a warm friend OF
Mr.. Brown, spoke of number who
had come to pay tribute to his
memory as one of best friends they
ever had. These things show the
true nature of the man.
In the summer OF 1893 Mr.. Brown
suffered from a sunstroke in the
harvest field, which gradually rem
dered it necessary for him to be ta-
ken to a sanitarium in Cincinnati
and finally resulted in his death
The remains were shipped to I'm
ion City for interment. Funera
services were conducted by Eide
T. A. Reynolds at the Christian
Church, Of which he was con
scientious and devoted member.
The pail bearers were Harry
Robinson, D. A. George, James
Arm, r. P. Whitesell, DIR. A. S
| M. Dabney, Lexie S. Parks, A. ]
Harpole and r. G. Garth.

MOTHER AND DAUGHTER.
The wife and Mothcr-in-Law of ME-.
Charles Keys.

Clnrissa, MINI, April IS Especially.
No family in this vicinity IS better
known or more universally respected
than Mr.. Charles Keys, the local School
Teacher, and his estimable wife, and
mother-in-law. For n long time. Mrs.
Keys has been In III health. Recently,
however, she has found n curo for her
ailments In Dodd's Kidney Pills.
II cannot speak too highly Of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, or Of what they have done
for me-" said Mrs. Keys.
my life was miserable, my back al
ways ached. also my head. Twas troub-
led with Neuralgia in the head and face
and suffered extreme pain. but thanks
20 Dodd's Kidney Pills, all those aches
and pains have vanished like the norm
ing dew, and II now seems that life Is
worth living. i consider DoGd's Kid
ney Pills n God-send to suffering hui
manity. They may rightly be named
the Elixir OF Youth.
"while speaking Of my own case and
the wonderful benefit i have received,
i might also add, that my mother. who
Is now an old lady Of "a years and who
lives with me. has been troubled more
or less with aches and pains, as is nat
ural with one of her advanced age.
When she saw what Dodd's Kidney
rills had done for me, she commenced
90 use them herself, and she says that
they have done her more good than
any other medicine she has ever tried.
This testimony Is given In the hope
that others who may be afflicted as we
were, may see and read II, and be bene-
flied by H."
What Mrs. Keys states In her letter
can be verified by reference TO any of
her many friends in this neighborhood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills have already a
wonderful reputation in Todd County.
Nothing has ever cured Bright's Dis
ease, Diabetes or Dropsy but Dodd's
Kidney Pills.
