art his, we are his and thy friendly are his; but today thy friends sorrows are great for the chair that is vacant no other can fill.
 She has come as near living the life of the righteous as any one we ever knew. She was the most perfect character we have ever known. We who knew her best believe most truly that she hath done what she could.
 She was a member of the Cum berland Presbyterian Church, She was faithful in loving God and all mankind. Day by day we were given the full assurance that she knew in whom she was trusting We can say that she was faithful to the church, the the Sunday school and to her God.
 Weep not, dear children and grandchildren, dear Maggie will sweetly sleep in her grave til the resurrection morn shall call fourth the body we loved and that was tenderly inferred in the Selma Cemetery Only a little while and we shall all come to you.

ANOTHER DEARMAN OUTBREAK.
John Dearman in Fit Of Anger AssaiIs his Parents

The La Crosse Leader of Saturday
contains the following account of a
lrsarman family outbreak at their new
holue in Mime eota: A dreadful tale of
what a man will do to his family whe
he is fnll of 'cussedness" comes from
the village OF Dresbaeh, Minnesota, to-
day. The principal of the affair was
John Dearman, a recently married young
man, who lives at Dresbaeh Dearman
became enrt ged at his youngest brother
and father as result of an argument
regarding a clam pearl and log he
insisted that his brother had stolen tho
pearl and the father confiscated the log
and the pugnacious young man demand
ed the return Of the property to him
They denied having the poss session of
either, and THEN constant denials en-
ragged the young man TO edch NJ extent
that he struck the iatber vita a pike
pole, bruising the OLD gentleman and
knocking him into the RIVER, where he
was In great danger Of being drowned.
Immediately upon this, Dearman's wife
appeared on the scene to try and termi
nate the fracas Her husband imme-
diately hurled his better half in the
river also and ran home to secure gun.
Returning he fred a shot at his father
but fortunately the bullet went ainiss.
The old gentleman and the wife, now
thoroughly frightened, made haste to
get out of the belligetent young mans
way and took refuge at the residence of
neighbOf. Dearman, realizing that
there was now no one TO vent his rage
upon, began batteriDg his fathers boat
to splinters and then proceed toward his
fathers home. When he reached there
he met his aged mother. who had wit
messed the abuse inflicted on the other
members Of tine family, and tried to
bring him to his senses When she ex-
postuisted with him his rage rose again,
and he assailed his mother, choking her
