Mr.. A. w. BREEDLOVE DEAD
One of Terrell'S Oldest and Best
Citizens Passes Away.

Mr.. A. W. Breedlove, one of Ter
rell countys Oldest and most respected
citizens, died at his home two miles west
of Dawson Thursday afternoon at 3
o'clock, and the interment occurred
in Cedar Hill cemetery the following
afternoon after funeral services at
the home. conducted by Revs. W. F.
Smith and o. F. Cook.
Mr.. Breedloye, who was in his Saith
year, was native of Houston county,
moving from there to Lee county. In
1870 he moved from Lee to Terrell,
and has since been prominently identi'
fed with the interests of this county.
In the war between the states he en-
listed in the confederate army and did
gallant and valiant service for the
Lost Cause. When the war ceased
and the flag he loved and fought for
was furled he returned to his home,
and though foOtsore and weary began
anew the battle of life with the fdel-
ity, energy and determination that
was ever his strong characteristic,
and plucked success from the gloom OF
defeat and adversely.
He was from early childhood mem
Der of the Methodist chuch, and the
faithful performance of his christian
duty and fidelity to his church and the
Master was to him the most important
work of his life, and his strong chris.
tian character was an inspiration to all
who came in contact with him.
Besides a host of friends Mr.. Breed
love leaves eight children, all OF whom
are grown, to mourn his death-Mrs
Laura 7. Whitchard, Mrs. S. r. Chris
tie, Mrs. Alice Goode, Mrs. j. l.
Smith and Messrs. B. W., F. E., A. b.
and Lucius Breedlove. To these the
sympathy of many friends is extended

SIGHTLESS TIGERS
ARE SECURELY Gagged.
JUDGE RAINES PUT HEAVY SENTENCES
UPON ILLEGAL WHISKEY SELLERS.
One Given the Option of Twelve Months
or $500 Fine, and Another Will Pay
Half That Sum or Serve Year.

The quarterly term of the city court
convened Monday with Judge Raines
presiding. Only civil and jail cases
were tried, and as the dockets were
light the session lasted but one day.
Judge Raines served notice that
keepers of blind tigers cannot escape
with light punishment if convicted be-
fore him. Herschel Williams and
Shelly Murray, the two negroes who
were arrested for this offense at Sasser
short time ago, were tried and con-
victed ami the former was sentenced
to serve twelve months in the chain
gang or pay fine of $500, and the lat
ter was given a sentence of $3.50 or
twelve months.
Williams was the proprietor of the
house in which the tiger was operated
and Murray was in his employ, which
accounts for the difference in the cen
fences. There is no probability that
they will be able to pay their fines.
Only two other criminal cases were
tried. Clarence Clayton was convicted
of gaming and sentenced to twelve
months in the gang, and Babe Glenn
ents was acquitted of the same charge.
Clayton is an old offender, having been
before the court several times before,
and was not given the privilege of
paying fine.

cording to the dispatch. that Salt Lake was
once a part of the Pacific ocean. For years
biologists and learned scientists, including
experts from the Smithsonian Institution,
have made vain efforts to discover some
convincing proof that the inland sea was
once part of the great Pacific. Parties
of scientists have lived on and travelled
the shores of the big lake, but none of their
discoveries were ever accepted as positive
proof. The discovery made by Mrs House

tains salt sea periwinkles. which a number
OF scientists claim are only found in ocean
specimens, but the big coral rock, yellow
with age was all that could be found. Prof.
Henshaw, geologist at the Walnut Hills
school, said that while the discovery was

Der OF clowns and animals. The elephant
and the donkey are the favored performing
animals In these circuses, and as they are
jointed all over they may be played in any
number OF ridiculous postures. while the
ladders. balls and other ring properties help
out the circus effect. A big theater, with
flies and scenery all complete. and charac-
tiers worked cleverly by wires. is an en-
crossing thing for the stage-struck boy or
girl, and an airship which moves on a wire
produces an illusion to the small owner
which comes nearer the real effect than any
Of the inventors of the real airships have
yet attained. Far from attractive, and yet
very amusing, is the green snake a foot or
two in length which, when blown up and
thrown to the floor, remains still for mo-
ment and then slowly uncoils in very life
like manner.
The steam engines and trains are more
than usually elaborate and the little trains
have all the accessories of stations, sema-
phores, gates. tunnels and signals that the
real thing owns. A very wonderful fire en-
CINE will draw water from a real cistern
and throw II with all the attendant excite
ment that waits on the performances of a
life-size hose reel. An entire machine shop
shown by one store shows ten different ma
chimes, complete in every particular, worked
by miniature steam engine. The machine
shop costs $50 and the small machinist who
finds it in his Christmas stocking will get
fully thirty dollars worth of fun out of It,.
But the outfit is an unusually complete one,
and for much smaller sums there are all
kinds Of engines and machines which hold
vast possibilities of enjoyment to the small
boy of a mechnical turn of mind.
