RECORD OF DEATHS
Mrs. L. H. Gachet,

Mrs. Lavinia Harrison Gachet died yes- terday evening at o'clock at the home of her daughter. Mrs. Branch, South Law renee Street, this city. It was a shock to her family and friends. as she had been in her usual good health until about 5 o'clock Thursday morning when she was seized with the illness that terminated fatally.
 Mrs. Gachet was born in Jones County Georgia. in 1S17 and was S6 years old at her death. Her father. Dr. Harrison Jones, was one of the most eminent physi- clans of his day.
 At an early age, in 1892. she was mar ried to the late James E. Gachet, who died at his home In Union Springs in 1876 They moved to Alabama in 1857.
 She is survived by three daughters Mrs. M. A. Branch of Montgomery. Mrs. l.. G. Pou of Savannah and Mrs. w. H. Smith of Tuskegee and three sons. Capt. Charles Gachet of Memphis and Messrs. Henry and Nicholas Gachet of Union Springs. and by number of grand -chil- dren.
 Besides her own children she reared those of her brother-in-iaw Mir. Nicholas Gachet, once a citizen of Montgomery, and younger sister. Mrs. Alfred Ali Son of Gadsden. All of her children and her sister are here now. Capt. Charles Gachet was in Arkansas when the tidings of his mothers illness reached him.

 Mrs. Gachet will be buried at Union Springs tomorrow morning where her hus- band and other relatives have been laid away. Her remains will leave here at 8 o'clock Sunday morning.
 It IS doubtful if any one ever gave less cause for sorrow and unhappiness than did this lovely and venerable woman. All of her long life she was sunshine and joy for those around her. She came to Ala bama at an early date and when there were but few inhabitants where she lived. She went through all the trials of the early settlers and made devoted friends of all who knew her. The greater part of her life she lived i1 Macon County, her l home being in that portion of the County which forms part of Bullock. For several years she had resided in Montgomery with her daughter, Mrs. Branch. From her earliest girlhood she was a devoted member of the Methodist Church and in her daily walk and life sxemplified ! the beauties of a true Christian charac- ter

GIRL AND WOMAN
CARE NEEDED AT THE TRANsI- TON FROM ONE TO THE
 OTHER.
Many a Life Spent in Suffering Be- cause Troubles were Allowed to
 Develop at This Time.

Every mother of g growing girl should remember that there will come 0 time when her daughter will be a girl no longer, but will share with her the bless ings of womanhood. Unless nourish- ment keeps pace with growth the foun- dations of a life of suffering are laid at that time. Chlorosis, commonly called green sickness. may develop unless the blood is kept rich and pure; incipient con- sumption and nervous and constitutional troubles that have been dormant in the blood. will surely appear unless the sys- tenn is kept toned up until the\ danger line is passed. Mrs. John Mackfnney, or No. 47S Thirteenth Street, Detroit, Mich, writes timely word on the subject. She says:
 II did not get proper care at the first critical time in my life and for seven teen years I suffered as result. l had dizzy spells, felt constant fear that something dreadful was about to happen. and was afraid to go out alone. My breathing was very short and had pal pitation of the heart so badly that l could not go upstairs nor walk even mod erately fast. I was so nervous that l could not sit still. At different times for years I was under the care of the best physicians in Detroit and I tried num- Der of advertised medicines. Nothing helped me until, on the aoVice or u neighbor, I tried Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. I felt relieved be- fore the first box was finished and kept on taking them until I was cured.
 Last winter my little girl had rheuma- tism and gave her Dr. Williams Pink Pills and she got we'll right away. My sisters daughter was thought to be go- ing into consumption, and upon my ad- vice, she tried the pills. They cured her cough and she is now we'll and strong. You can readily see that my entire fam fly is enthusiastic over pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and we can not say enough in their praise"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo- pie are always successful because they go to the root of the disease. Other reme- dies act on the symptoms-these marvel ous vegetable pills remove the cause of the trouble. They have proven them selves to be an unfailing specific for all diseases arising from impure or im- poverished blood and weakened nerves two fruitful causes of nearly all the ills to which humankind is heir. Dr. Will Hams Pink Pills for Pale People are sold in boxes at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50. and may be had of all drug gists. or direct by mail from Dr. Will Hams Medicine Co.,. Schenectady. N. Y.

Volumlnous Evidence for the Judge.
A Washington dispatch dated yester.
day says:
Washington, March 3O.-Attorney
General Knox today gave hearing tc
Judge Daniel H. Mcmillan of the SUI
preme court of New Mexico, against
whom charges of immortality have been
preferred by citizens of that territory.
After the charges and the evidence In

ment of justice, had been read, counsel
for Judge Mcmillan filed voluminous
affidavits in contradiction of the charg-
es. They supplemented these with a
large number of letters and kilograms
from citizens of the territory to the ef-
feet that they had no confidence in the
truth of the charges. The attorney
general took the matter under consid-
Grafton, and it will be some days before
a decision is rendered. John G. Milburn
of Buffalo, N. Y, an old friend, appear
ed as the legal representative Of Judge
Mcmillan, and made an earnest argu-
ment in his behalf. Secretary Root,
who because of his acquaintance with
J1dgc Mcmillan and friendship for him.,
is interested in the case, was present
merely as an auditor.
