G.. G. MACKIE DEAD.

George G. Mackie, one of the pio-
neers in the Barre granite business
and one of the prominent citizens of
that city, died Saturday evening after
a lingering illness with consumption.
Two years ago Mr.. Mackie was oblig-
ed to retire from active business life
and the greater part of the interval
has been spent at Saranac Lake, n.
Y, where he went in hopes of i'm
proving his health. He returned to
Barre last fall with failing health and
of late the end had been expected at
any time.
Deceased was one of the first two
Scotchmen to ply the granite business
in Barre, having come to Barre, in
1880, with his half brother, James G.
Simpson. He was born in Fraserburg,
Aberdeenshire, Scotland, May l, 1S49.
From 1884 to two years ago Mr..
Mackie was recognized as one of the
most successful business men of Barre,
at the time of his retiring hav-
ing one of the largest manufacturing
plants in the city.
In 1868 Mr.. Mackie was married to
Mary Cameron of Aberdeenshire, who
survives him, with three sons. The
funeral was held Tuesday after
noon at O'Clock from his late home
on Washington street. Rev. T. M.

Dear Sir; You paint lead and oil,
don't you? Do you know why house
turns fiat in spots and streaks in a
few weeks before the paint has had
any chance to chalk or wear?
Devoe lead and zinc don't fat It's
as glossy as ever until it begins to
wear; it keeps its gloss for two or
three years. When the gloss begins to
go the paint is beginning to go. 1t is
the first sign of wear-it ought to be.
We suppose the flatting is due to
water in lead, but why it should fiat
in spots and not all over is more than
we know.
There is water in all whitehead in
the making. We dry it out PERHAPS
nopody else does.

FOR COUNTY SHERIFF.

G. G. Graves, sheriff of Washing
ton county, will stand as a candidate
for denomination before the next
county convention. Mr.. Graves comes
to this determination in response to
the solicitations of the great majority
of the bar of the county, and also of a
large number of its leading citizens.
He has been an exceptionally eff
cient officer, both in the performance
of what might be called 1.-THE field
duty" of sheriff, the preservation of
law and order, the pursuit and arrest
of offenders, wherever there has been
occasion to exercise the police duties
of the office In the other depart
ments of sheriff's duties, requiring
promptness, accuracy, discretion and
sound Judgment, as well as clerical
neatness, order and precision, which
highly commend an officer to court,
bar and litigants, it is the quite unani-
nous judgment of men familiar with
the administration of the Office that
Washington county has never had a
better sheriff, at least not in the last
generation, than is Mr.. Graves. 1t is
true that this officer will have held
this post four years on the expiration
of the present term, constituting the
customary two terms. This period of
faithful, efficient and highly accept
able service ought not to disqualify
man from longer continuance in well
doing i'll business affairs such state
of Things is the highest recommended
tion, the strongest reason for contin-
uance in service. In this rational view
of the matter, Mr.. Graves ought to
be renominated.

 Federal Grand Jury.

The preliminary hearing of the case of E. J. Barrett. charged with obstructing government officers in their attempt to arrest F. w. Kristeller. was concluded yesterday morning in the Court of Uni ted States Commissioner John A. Fillmore and Barrett was bound over to await the action of the Federal grand jury. His bond was fixed at $500 which he made.
 The hearing of Barrett consumed all of Monday in the Commissioners Court and 1t was not concluded when the Court ad- journed Monday evening.
 Yesterday morning T. J. Kennemer, a Deputy Internal Revenue Collector. was introduced as witness for the defend ant. Kennemer testified that he saw J.. R. McNeil and Barrett at a baseball game the afternoon the government claimed they were out of Montgomery with Kristeller.
 When the lawyers had completed the argument Commissioner Elmore an- nounced that he would require Barrett to make bond in the sum of $500 The bond was readily made and Barrett was released from custody.

VALIDITY OF DE CzEKE WILL. Judge Gaston Has Matter Under
 Consideration.

A decision in the case of the will of Prof. Alexander de Czeske is expected in a few days. Judge J. B. Gaston of the Probate Court of Montgomery County has the validity of the will beaueathing all of the deCzeke property to Miss Rosa Hardin of Kentucky under consideration.
 The decision of Judge Gaston will settle the ownership of the three violins, for which the natural heirs of the dead mu- sician and his friend. Miss Rosa Hardin. are contending. The validity of the will and consequently the ownership of the vioiins depends upon the residence of Pro- lessor de Czeske. The hearing on the question of the validity of the will Mon- day was for the purpose of adducing evil dence that would throw light upon the vexed question.
 If the old musician was a resident or citizen of Kentucky the property will pass to Miss Hardin. If. on the other hand, the evidence which was introduced at the hearing was sufficiently strong to estab- fish as a fact that Professor de Czeke was a citizen of Montgomery the violins will go to the heirs in Hungary.
 The decision Is expected within the next few days.

BALL GAME THURSDAY.
Gersts Will Meet Millers in Hot
 Contest,

The second ball game of the Montgom- cry City League will be played Thursday at the ball park between the Gersts and Miller teams. It was expected that a se- ries of games between the strong Pensa- cola teams and the Gersts would be played during this week.
 The Floridians had trouble with their schedule and had to forego the Montgom- cry games after they had been announce ed. The team found that 1t was impos- sible to come here at this time, but they will be seen in contests with the strongest teams in the City League at a later date. The management of the City League con- fidently promises the Montgomery pub lie some fast and snappy games during the summer.
 A great contest Is expected Thursday when the. Gersts and Millers meet at the ball park. There Is perhaps more rivalry between these two teams than any other in the league. Both will make desperate efforts to take the first game of the series. The tasty uniforms ordered by the Miller team will arrive tonight.
