Odd Fellows magazine, at an annual
salary of three thousand do liars,
Mrs. Eddy, from earliest childhood,
was deeply interested IN the subject of
religion. She was early baptIsed into
the church and became an ardent
member. AS child she listened eager
Iy to the discussions on religion be-
tween her father and the visiting cler-
gymen who frequented their hospitable
hone. When afflicted with a fever,
her mother turned her daughters
thought to God IN prayer. Relief came
/ through her earnest petitions, and
| from that moment to the present hour
the thought of God and His helpful
ness to man has constantly abIded with
her
In 1856 Mrs. Eddy received an injury
from a severe fall upon the icy curbing,
which was pronounced beyond all
earthly help. In her dying hour, as
she supposed, she turned her thought
wholly to the divine Helper. A won
drous illumination dawned upon her
expectant vision, and she arose restored
to health and strength. She proved
the discovery to be God given by heal
ing the lame and the blind and by rails
ing the dying. Having found the
means whereby Christ Jesus and his
disciples wrought their benefcent
works, she earnestly labored to give
her discovery to all mankind. She
wrote the text book of the denomina-
ton, founded the Massachusetts Meta
physical College, established the
church and It's publication society.
Thus she is not only the discoverer of
the Science, but the founder of this re-
Iigious denomination Those who
have followed her closely have observed
her whole hearted and entire devotion
to the cause entrusted to her care
She gives no timefor social epjoyments.
Every moment of her waking hours is
devoted to the service of God and man.
She is hoEored and beloved in her own
city for her interest in it's welfare. She
has generously contributed to the city's
public improvements, and her liberal
donations are given not only to her
church, but to the hospitals and other
benevolent institutions. After thor
ough study of her work and an init
mate acquaintance with her life, de-
clare with gratitude that [ have found
Mrs. Eddy to be the most reyerent,
Chrlstainlike character that I have ever
known.

The future Of the Canal is now
in the hands of President Roosevelt.
The canal bill passed by Congress,
the President to secure
all rights of the Panama Canal Co..
and all other rights necessary for
the opening Of an isthmian canal,
getting a clear title for same, at a
price not to exceed $40, 900, ooo.-
This to be accomplished within a
reasonable time, but this is also
left to the discretion of the Presi-
dent. In event of failure to Sc
cure the necessary grants. ETC., he
is then to turn his attention to the
building of the Nicaragua canal.
The advocates of the latter route
are still hopeful, claiming as they
do, that a clear title cannot be Sc
cured from the Panama Canal Co. F.,
and also that the government of
Columbia will not grant the land
demanded for the canal. In face
of these facts it appears that Mica
raugua has a chance yet. We have
always favored the Nicaragua
route, but what we want is a canal
we will be content with either.

The Board of Supervisors of
Claiborne county will be petitioned
at their meeting on Monday to or
der the private hanging of Abe
Deal, a negro, who is condemned
10 death. The Reveille urges this
course by the Board. Similar ac-
ton by the papers over the State
would soon do away with the pre-
vailing spectacular custom of public
hangings. Such public exhibitions
of legal executions, especially when
a negro is to be hung, is a breeder
of crime, for the negro is great
lover of show and the emotional,
and this, together with hankering
to take human life, places him in
the line OF criminals. The negro
always has a tale to tell when he
ascends the gallows about "going
straight to Glory" and of course
the majority of his race believe him.
We urge upon the Boards of SUI
pervisors, all over the state, to stop
the public hangings and let the
criminal die III private, away from
the eyes Of the world,

WILL SENATOR NOEL BE A
CANDIDATE?

We note that Senator Noel, the
author of the Primary election
law, is being mentioned as a prob
able candidate for Governor. We
think there is no doubt that the
Senator will be the race. When
he introduced his extraordinary
bill IN the Senate, 1t was equiva-
lent 10 an announcement of his
intended candidacy. We have
heard members of the Legislature
assert that Senator Noel had a
we'll established reputation for
being personally interested in
most of his proposed legislation.
In fact this peculiarly was so
we'll known that when he intro
duced a bill the question was gen.
orally asked ''what is Noel after?"
We are informed that the Sena-
tor can afford to risk twenty-five
hundred or three thousand dollars
on a horse race, on futures, or on
canvass for state Office, under
his primary law. This is the esti-
mate of cost of such q canvass
most generally agreed upon.
This election law represents
Noelism, pure and simple, be-
cause it renders 1t impossible for
many well-qualifled men to run
for a State office, and therefore
lessons the opposition to Mr.. NoeI
in more ways than one. Money
and brains are not always found
together.
Just how he got his bill enacted
into law is difficult to under
stand, because our legislature:
are not usually made up of NIL
lionalres, and this law is distinct
ly designed to make the posses
sion of money a qualification fol
office. But then our Solons Otter
do unwiso things.
We repeat that Mr.. Noel is
candidate for Governor, and viii
continue to be, unless he becomes
hopelessly discouraged before th'
campaign opens. We hope thi
will not be the case, as we ear
nestly desire to see the author o
this ubiquitous usurpation of part
rights by the state authority over
whelmedI under an avalanche o
protesting ballots.

the first six months of 1902 is 500
miles in excess of same for 1901.

Another scene not unlike the
Tillman- McLauri affair, has been
again enacted in the Senate. This
time the principals were Senators
Bailey, of Texas, and Beveridge,
of Indiana, and the assault was
made by the former, on account of
a statement made by the latter du-
ring debate. Such episodes are
very disgracful, and the fact that
this affair has caused SO little com
ment is a reflection upon that for
merly dignifed body, as the silence
is due entirely to the frequency of
the disgraceful spectacles. Senator
Bailey is brainy man and has a
bright future before him if he does
not fall by the Tillman route.

terests OF the town. Whenever a
man is doing well, do not try to tear
him down if his business is respecs
table and legal. All residents should
be partners for the best interest of
the community and not opponents.
Every business man who treats his
customers honestly, courteously and
fairly, will get his share, and the
more business that can be secured by
united effort, the better it will be
for all. When town ceases to grow,
it begins to die, and the more people
try to kill each other in business, the
