SUDDEN DEATH.
N. ]. Kennedy. . Prominent Citizen of Fls1 staff. Pssses Away After
 Few Days illness.

The community was shocked Tues day morning by the news of the death of Michael Joseph Kennedy. His death was unexpected, he having been i'll but seven days and at no time was his condition considered serious. Monday night his condition was worse and the disease, pleuro-pneumonia, baffled the skill of his physician. His death occurred at five o'clock Tues day morning.
 Mir. Kennedy came here about ten years ago from Las Vegas, N. M., having contract for the erection of the water storage dam at Williams. He also had the contract for numerous buildings erected for the Santa Fe railroad along their line. He also built the Northern Arizona Normal building and honesty marked every line of his work. He was genial and sincere in manner and won the friend- ship of all who came in contact with him. He was an excellent citizen and one the community can i'll afford to lose.
 He was a member of Flagstaff Lodge No. 449 Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and that order conduct ed the impressive funeral ceremony at the residence on Thursday morning. Funeral services were held in the Church of the Nativity, and interment was made in the Catholic cemetery here.
 Mir. Kennedy was born in Troy, N. Y., on June 12, 1856. He was married in Flagstaff on October 20, 1S96, to Miss Bertha Smith, who survives him together with two children, Julia Katherine, aged six years, and John B.. three years old.

Startling Evidence.

Fresh testimony in great quantity is constantly coming in, declaring Dr. Kings New Discovery for consump- tion coughs and colds to be unequaled. A recent expression from T. J. Mo- Farland, Bentorville, Va, serves as example. He writes: sI had bron- chitis for three years and doctored all the time without being benefited. Then began taking Dr. Kings New Dis covery, and few bottles wholly cured me-" Equally effective in curing all lung and throat troubles, consumption pneumonia and grip. Guaranteed by all druggists. Trial bottles free, re- gular sizes 50c and $l.O0.

Is undoubtedly the simplest engine made, has fewer parts and furnishes more power from the same weight of metal than any other motor on earth. Its manifold uses, its great simplicity, it's economical maintenance and it's uniform durability and reliability under all conditions demand for it the first place among the engines of the day. Will run anything from the smallest plant in existence where motive power is required to the largest factory. Its uses are co-existent with the demand for an engine-large or small-and of any horsepower or mag nitude required. It can be readily em- ployed anywhere. at all times; in all climes; in the country as well as in the city. Its sole motive power, as stated, is ordinary kerosene oil, readily obtain able anywhere.

1t seems ITO us that tho General Assem-
bly, Is under q moral obligation to the
Jamestown Exposition Company to give
that patriotic enterprisefth the moral and
material support Of the State. The cele-
bratlon is the States affair, and 1t Is q
noble anniversary that should be celee-
brated in Il becoming manner and In g
manner worthy iof the occasion and
worthy Of the State.
It Is something more than sentiment
The American idea was born al James
town.. the American republic was Graded
on that historic SPOT, The American idea
has now spread over the whole world
and the American republic has become
the greatest nation on the globe Of
course we should celebrate tho James
town anniversary, and we should cele'
brate it by showing the progress that
this State and this nation have made
within the past three hundred years.
we are not 50 narrow as to begrudge
the people Of that section the benefits
which they will get. They have taken
upon themselves a heavy burden, bur:
den which perhaps no other section OIL
the State would have been willing to
assume, and they are welcome to all thai
they can make out tof Ut. The Stats
should encourage them and aid then. then
in every possible way.
But even from a business point OF
view. it is Ito tie Interest Of the entire
Commonwealth to encourage this great
exposition. 1T will bring millions Of PEG
pie to Virginia; it will bring millions OF
money into the State; 1t will enhance the
value Of lands; 1t will be tho means OF
advertising the State as she has never
been advertised and as she could be ad-
yertised In no other way, and we believe
thntt will result in bringing many set
tiers into our borders. 5
1t lis the patriotic duty of Virginia to
support this enterprise; 1t is the duty OF
the General Assembly to keep faith with
the Jamestown Exposition Company
1t will be hurtful to tho State to refuse
to lend It's aid to the enterprise 1t Will
be Of the greatest benefit to the State
materially to make this exposition o great
