MEMORIAL DAY.
How Observed by the Veterans Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic.

Saturday was Memorial Day, and the
veterans of the Grand Army of the Re-
public observed the day in their usual
manner. A heavy rain IN the early
morning, and the subsequent showery
condition Of the weather prevented any
great attendance of visitors beyond the
old soldiers and their families, but it
was a day of determination to them,
which was greatly enjoyed
There were no public exercises in the
morning except the usual meeting of
the G. A. R. Post for the purpose OF
transacting business,
At 1880 p m. line was formed near the
News office and preceded by children
bearing flags and flowers, the Post
marched to Owen cemetery, where the
graves of'soldiers were decorated Re-
turn march was then made to the pleas
ant shade of the trees in front of the
new Town Hall, whore the exercises OF
the day were commenced.
A choir composed of Misses Mathilde
Gustafson, Louise Hill, Agnes Mil
brandt, True Randle, and Mrs. c. E.
Cunningham, and Mossrs. Walter Ran
die, Robt. Lee, and Chas Randle, with
w, c. Hill, organist rendered the mus
ic of the day, and many compliments
have been accorded them for their good
work and the excellence of their select
ions. The recition, Memorial Day."
owing to the serious illness of Miss Ava
Lancaster, was omitted. Walter Hop
kins recited "Old Glory" in good style,
and Miss Thula Martin gave Lincoln's
Words at Gettysburg in spirited style,
The exercises of the G. A. r. veterans
we're impressive and beautiful. Rev.
j, A. Ellison, of Jasper, acted as chap
lain. The Grafton by Rev. E, Omonun
dro, of South Pittsburg, who delivered
such fine address at Kimball Memor
ial Sunday last year, was in nowise {
whit interior to his former effort, bu
was unfortunately interrupted by the
raindrops which commenced falling
and a hasty retreat to shelter was made
by the assembled crowd. Rev. ONO
hundro, is a very fine speaker possessing
fine delivery and clothing his thoughts
in beautiful and telling language, anC
it was great disappointment that tht
audience assembled could not hav'
heard the remainder of his address.
Thus closed the exercises of the G
A. R. veterans for the day, which wer'
successful despite the inclemancy o
the weather, the day ending as it hat
begun in rain.
The following members Of Post SO
G. A. r. were present at the exercises

D. W. MILLER
MEETS DEATH
Run Over By Coal Cars at
New Etna Mines.
THROWN FROM INCLINE
AND HORRIBLY MANGLED,
Was General Manager of the
Company, and Prominent
in Chattanooga Bus
mess Affairs.

David w. Miller, prominent resid-
ent of Chattanooga, and general man
ager of the New Etna coal mines, near
Whiteside, Tenn, met a horrible death
near the company's mines shortly be-
fore noon Thursday by being run over
and instantly killed by some heavily
loaded coal cars on the upper incline
leading to the mines.
The accident occurred at 11:45 o'clock
Thursday morning while Mr.. Miller
was coming down the mountain to catch
the train for Chattanooga. The acci-
dent occurred at a point near trestle
where the incline is double tracked for
short distance to allow the passage of
cars, the empties going up and the load
cd ones coming down. The cars are
drawn by heavy cable.
Mr.. Miller had walked down the side
OF the double track on which were the
empties until he almost reached the
trestle. At this point he met the emp
ty cars and stepped to the other
track to allow their passage, apparent
ly unaware that the heavily loaded
cars we're just behied him. Just as he
stepped onto the track the first of the
four loaded cars struck him, knocking
down and passing completely over him.
The first and second cars were thrown
of the track. The body of the unfor-
tunate man was again struck by the
second car which dragged him off the
trestle and fell on his body, where he
was picked up short time after. The
top Of his head was almost severed and
bis face was horribly distorted. The

His Last Hope Realized.
(From "a SentiNel, Gelo, A0Mt. !

In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers after for
tune who made the big race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping upon
his claim, be encountered much bad
water, which, with tho severe heat,
gave him very severe diarrhoea, which
it seemed almost impossible to check,
and along in June the case became SO
bad he expected to die. One day one OF
his neigh bors brought him one small
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as last hope.
A big dose was given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in great
agony, and in few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effect of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour'the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for fortnight
That one little bottle worked a com
plete cure and he cannot help but feel
grateful. The season for bowel disord
ers being at hand suggest this item

A restful calm surrounds us all.
Gone is the hot and weary day
And slowly night wings on It's way
Lo! restful peace falls with the sun

And burdens from bent shoulders fall,
As if to heed some mystic call.

Unbroken save where insect sings.

Transformation.

A blackberry vine hung over the
edge OF an uncouth gully. Its weight
was suspended by single root, frag-
lie stem though tough that precarious-
ly held foothold, but in it's fragility
supported sweeping spray of leaves
and blossoms, graceful, charming, beau
tiful. The gully was rugged and bare,
cash of wave washed rock and earth,
but that single vine as it rested there
in its graceful and beautiful festoon,
changed the appearance of every thing,
and transformed ugliness into beauty.
The somber color of the gully now be-
came a pleasing background to the
fragile vine,-white blossoms against
a rich reddish brown relief. Thus
among human lives noble deed, no.
Bile thought, or a noble impulse trans
forms the plainest countonance into
wondrous beauty, and people seeing
wonder.
