MRS. BETTE GAYLE DUKE.

~ * $780, t-H EM4
Whilegnot unexpected, the death
of this good woman, the wife Of our
fellow-townsmap Col. Jas. III. Duke,
which occurred a little aftet one
o'clock on Monday morning, came
as a shock to the entire community.
/ While it has been known for a long
time that deceased was not in the
best of health, yet only in the past
few months have her loved ones and
many friends realized that her mall
ady had reached an incurable stage;
and even then we have been hoping
with nc grounds for hope.
Deceased was a good women-of
the tribe whose fright hand know
eth not what the left doeth''; of her
abundance she hath fed the needy,
and in her kind doth the Lord de-
light. To the editor of this paper
and his little family, since u COM
ing to Scooba some eighteen months
ago. she has ever been a warm and
sympathetic friend, and we shall
miss her more than tongue can tell.
A more facile pen than ours must
write her epitaph; we can but ac-
knowledge our personal obligations
and tender to her loved ones, now
desolate, our heartfelt sympathy.
Services were held in the Presby-
terrain Church Tuesday morning at
1920 O'Clock, conducted by Rev. j.
Frank Turner, after which the re-
mains were laid to rest in Scooba
cemetery, beside those of the loved
son whose early death she has never
ceased to mourn.

SUPREME LODGE
Of Knights OF Pythias in Session at
Louisville.

Louisville. KY, Aug. &C. The SUI
preme Lodge, which is the business de-
partment of the knights of Pythias,
opened its sessions, today, at the Ma
sonic thoater. The attendance was
large and much interest was shown.
Perhaps the most important matter
the lodge will be called upon to settle
is the relation of the endowment to the
regular lodge.
Many knights feel that the Knights
of Pythias is a fraternal order, rather
than beneficiary institution or an in
surance organization and that all in
surance features should be eliminated
from the organiZat ton proper. The in
surance feature represented by the En-
dowment Rank is an old institution Of
the organization and it will not easily
be set aside.
The grand marshal of the day will
be James r. Canadian, supreme COM
mander of the Uniform Rank.
