The military outing along the coast OF
Maine, where war game for points
has been in progress, is properly con-
demned BY the Universal Peace Union
as farcical and expensive. This game Is
another imitation OF the sports OF the
war lords of Europe, and about as useiu'
for military purposes as baseball in a
hack lot or chess in back room.

We regret to announce the death OF
Mr.. Mark Martin, which took place at
his residence in this city, Thursday,
July End, 1908, after long and partic-
ularly distressing illness, as greater
portion OF the time he was suffering
terribly. His illness was no doubt
brought on by an accident which hap.
pened to him over year ago when en-
gagged in trying TO turn log at his saw
% the weight of the log was precipita-
ted onto him by a cant hook slipping.
Mark Martin was born Nov. 10, 1853,
and therefore was 40 years, z months
and "a days Of age when he died. He
came to this county in 1876, and was
married to Miss Louisa Myers, daught.
or OF Capt John c. Myers, Nov. 3, 1878.
To them have been born five sons and
two daughters, all Of whom survive him
except one daughter, Nina, who died
Aug. 90, 1888.
His funeral took place on Friday at
Owen Church, and the numerous atten'
dance OF persons present voiced the re-
spect of the community. The service
was conducted by Rev. d. McCracken
and the interment was made in the ad-
joining cemetery.
He was prominently identified in the
business OF the town and surrounding
country in various enterprises, had a
cheerful disposition, and although not
always successful, worked hard, never
wasting his time lamsnting any poor
result, but continued trying and was
consequently appreciated and respected
He Was good husband and ia Their, ant
an all.round good citizen, and the com
munity as we'll as his family suffer
loss.
Mrs. Martin has been an invalid TO
years, and hardly expected to outliv,
her husband, but such is the uncertain
ty OF life that the str ong are taken anC
the weaker allowed to remain, and be
ing so situated the inhabitants of Sc
Quachee tenderly sYmpathize with he
and her children in their bereavement
