The horse was struck twice before the third bullet caught the fleeing man in the back. Mcdowell fingered until 4 o'clock this morning, when he died.

TIMBER RIDGE,
January l, 1901.

January /, l9Ol.
On last Sabbath morning three
graves stood open to receive the mortal
remains Of their intended occupants.
After the morning service in the Stone
Church at Timber Ridge by DR.. Quarles
the remains of Mrs. William Hamilton
of Roanoke, nee Larew. of this coun-
ty), arrived and were carried into the
church where service was conducted
by Rev Mr.. hardwood. The remalns
we're then carried across the road past
the Associate Reformed Church where
the funeral service Of Hubert TyreeF%as
being conducted by Rev. j, A. Thomp-
son and consigned to their resting
place in the A. r. p, cemetery. The
Stone Church was again occupied by
funeral procession following the re-
mains Of Mrs. A. H. Henry, whose
funeral service was conducted by Rev.
il. Mauze, and the body deposited
IN the old cemetery. A similar event
has never occurred here in the memory
of the oldest inhaDitant, if indeed In
the history of the old church itself
Three funeral professions simulta-
neously vending their way, over three
different roads, to these historic
grounds, seems little remarkable, and
lorcibly teaches us $50 to number our
days that we may apply our hearts
unto wisdom"
Another significant fact connected
with this event is, that every age OF
human life was clearly represented
Mrs. Henry representing old age, Mrs.
Hamilton having scarcely attained mid
die age and Hub.rt Tyree being q
youth OF seventeen, whose prospects
for long life seemed as favorable as any
of that age, though we are told he had
a presenliment that he would never
see the flowers of May.

THE NINETEENTH CENTURY.

There are few now living who saw
the beginning of the old century, but
their deeds and those that succeeded
them are on record, an it is interesting
to note the changes and the difference
III OPP tunity existing at the begin
ming and the close The most noted
change Is IN our system and the extent
of EDUCATIONAL facilities and on this
depends largely the increased opportu
mites of the people. A hundred year
ago there were only tew private
schools and endowed academies, AMI
they we've limited in capacity and
patronage, with the result that the
ms.oriiy of the people were uneducated.
During the first fifty years OF this
period there was much improvement,
but it was feeble in comparison to what
followed. Then education was con.
due ed on the principle that it was
only necessary for those who intended
to enter one of the three learned pro-
fossions-law, medicine and theology
and was confined for the most part to
the classics, with the purpose OF
Strengthening the memory.
During the latter halt of the century
there has been a reversal of the theo
and practice by the introduction of the
public sthools for the education of all
in the primary branches of knowledge
aud as many as will, In the higher
Nor is the conduct OF the schools so
much for the memory as for the fuller
development of all the faculties. This
has led to the establishment of scien.
tifc schools, chemical and physical
laboratories and later the industrial
schools, in which the hand and eye are
trained to order and accuracy with the
view of taking part in the great in
dus rial activities OF the world. The

with accuracy is no longer considered
