OLDEST WOMAN
In Columbus Passes Away
Over 100 Years Old.

Mrs Martha Buckner a very aged
colored woman died this morning at
9: 80 after an illness that had confined
her to the house since last Friday Mrs.
Buckner was perhaps the Oldest person
at her death in this country. She had a
vivid recollection of the war of 1912, for
she was water carrier for the soldiers
during that war The deceased was
born in Virginia just the exact date no
one knows but it is computed from
early recollections that the deceased
was considerably over 100 years of age,
She had been a resident of this city
since 1863, coming here from Virginia
Mrs. Buckner was one of the pur-
est of women aud was constantly all
her life doing charity work. She was a
consistent Christian and member of the
Second Baptist church at which place
the funeral will be held next Sunday
afternoon.

DEATH OF MRS. BEASON.

The passing of another old
resident occurred this morning
when Mrs. Sarah Beason after an
illness of about a year, succumed
to the inevitable death. Mrs
Beason was born in this country
63 years ago and has always been
esteemed for her many womanly
traits of character. She was a
devout member of Second Baptist
Church from which place the
funeral will take place with Rev.
James Poindexter officiating.
Mrs. Beason was the mother of
nine children all of whom save
two sons William and Isaac pre-
ceded her into eternity some
years ago. The two sons are left
to mourn the death of dutiful
and loving mother. The date fol

the funeral wore covered with
the flying fluid and the
tombstones discolored.
AS it was washday in Rudolph
the housewives there have reas-
on for extreme regret while local
oil men are rejoicing over one of
the best gushers in the field.
The damage to buildings while
it cannot be estimatedis conside-
rable as everything will need
repainting and the tombstones in
the graveyard will have to be
secured,
Fortunately no fires occurred
for had the slightest blaze been
burning at the time the shot was
exploded a disastrous fire would
have resulted.

A CHILD'S DEATH
Leads to the Belief That
Poison was Swallowed.

Elmer Edmonson little color
ed boy living at 80 East Chestnut
street died Monday morning
under circumstances which caus-
ed his parents to believe he was
the victim of poisoning.
About week ago the boy be-
gan to feel pains in his stomach
and to vomit a greenish substance
A physician was not called In
until Friday at which time ac-
cording to the DOCTORS statement
it was too late to save the child's
life. The case was diagnosed as
congestion of the bowels and
stomach and refused to yield to
treatment. The boys condition
gradually grew worse, until death
came Monday morning at Ii 80
O'Clock. A post mortem exalnina-
tion is being held to determine
what was the real cause of death
It is said another member of this
family died about a year and
half ago under similar circumA
stances. No satisfactory theory
has as yet been advanced to
explain how the boy happened
to get poisoned or what kind of
poison it was although a brother
of the deceased has expressed
the opinion that the fatal
substance was ice-cream. The
father of the boy is Nelson

man of this citv.

| One of the most essential elements
in the development of race is char
aeter, which each man builds for him
self, and while others may help or
hinder him in the task, no earthly
power can take from him the results.
What a man has may be stolen, what
he does may be frustrated. but what he
is will ever remain possession, of
which not even the deepest malice can
deprive him.
The most important part of a mans
character s'his moral nature and it's
different tendencies, diversified of
course, according to habit, association
and assimilation.

ing, were it not for this power of
choice. Is not this common sense
philosophy that teaches US it is the
power of man to choose the good or
evil that makes HIM the agent of re-
sponsibility? Responsible to God, to
his conscience, which, if needed, is
the better part of man, and to human
lty in general,
We are not alone responsible for our
conduct individually, b we have a |
stewardship here that is more far
reaching, the influence we exert over
others. In all ages and among all
races, strength of character, and decis-
iveness of purpose are the fundamen-
tai principles of a nations success.
We notice this as far back as the
days of the Purltans, who fleeing from
the tyranieal rule of King James of
England, emmigrated to Holland, but
to no purpose. The surroundings, the
character of the inhabitants were such
al. to make the place anything but fit

for them, in which they could peacably
abandon the religious heresies of the
throne of England. and worship God
according to the dictates of their con-
science, and that was America. They
came, and be it said to their everlast-
ing praise, this country is, to a great
extent, indebted to them for wha. it ia
today.
The New England institutions, char
acter of the inhabitants, and their will
lingness to accord to every man his
rights regardless of race, color or pre-
vious conditions, shows for itself.
The same principles that existed in
the days of the Puritans, exist today.
With them it was religious freedom,
with US it is to secure the highest
standing in American citizenship.
How are we to do this-devote our
selves to industry, sobriety, pains
taking and self-saerifice, let there be
more unity among US, let US stand to-
