IN MEMORY OF OTIS PIERCE.

Otis Pierce, the subject of this memoir, was
born December l, 1873. Brother Otis became
the subject of converting grace in childhood and
united with the Methodist Episcopal Church at
old Mount Vincent in Benton County, Tennes-
see. He was blessed with the warm and health
full atmosphere of a Christian home his father,
BrotherJ. p. Pierce, being staunch Methodist
and leading factor in the re-establishment Of
old Methodstism ing this country. His mother
is one of the best of women. Under the guild
ance of these parents, besides his sweet sister,
Clara, he grew to noble Christian manhood. In
the year 1897 he was united in marriage with Miss
Fannie Clement, with whom he lived happily
until called to leave this verdi He leaves two
fatherless children, little girl and baby boy.
He tenderly loved these sweet children and in
his last public prayer he feFRently plead for their
preservation and well being. He was for ten
years the hOnored superintendent of the Sunday
school at Mount Vincent. Brother Pierce was
always at his post. His last Sabbath on earth
was spentin his Sunday school. His lastillness
was of short duration and his death sudden, but
he was ready. He peacefully fell asleep in Jesus
December H., 1908. The writer preached the
funeral sermon at old Mount Vincent to a large
and sympathetic audience; text, Psalm 81 81.
We then laid his body away to await the reSur-
rection of the just. To the father and mother
and other loved ones, would say, weep not;
Otis is not lost. To the heart-stricken wife, /
recommend the all7sufficient grace of the blessed
Lord. j. w. DROKE,

DESTROYED BIZ FIRE.

A Big Sandy special of Tuesday
to the Nashville American says:
"a barn belonging to Bob Jones,
farmer living about 4 miles from
town, was destroyed by fire last
night. A lot of corn and hay, one
mule and farming implements were
destroyed. No insurance. The
FIRE is supposed to be Of incendia-
rys. origin, and Deputy Sheriff A.
N. Lindsey has gone to the scene
with bloodhounds."
Itseems Mr.. Jones only lost the
hay in the fire, as the barn and
other property belonged to Mrs.
Sara Cole. Bloodhoods took up a
trail to one of the near neighbors,
and there the matter rests. It is
said this neighbor, a Mr.. Good
man. has been warned to leave the
country or he would be arrested
He refuses to do SO, and denies all
knowledge of:the origin of the fire.

company ever rejected just claim, or

of this company, and has had claim
against the company and did not receive
the amount due him or her under the
terms of their policy.
Some agents have endeavored to dis
courage our members, or influence them
to drop their policies with this company
by stating that we are not authorized to
operate in Tennessee, which fact is true,
but wish to state that this will in no way
interfere with members who already have
policies, and every claim will be paid in
full just the same as though the member
resided in some State where they did
have authority to operate.

many persons in Camden can testify as
to the treatment accorded them in the
settlement of their claims against the
company, continuation OF which will
exist as long as there is a member left in
the State of Tennessee.
The company is stronger, larger and is.,
doing more business today than was ever
known in its history. 1t has $50, 900 as
sets, $4,000 of which is cash deposited
in three different banks or repositories
of ST. Louis, and any member having a.
claim against the company will be paid
in full in the future, the same as they
have been in the past.

ARREsrED. ON SUSPICION.

A trio of negroes were arrested
near the depot Wednesday. The
negroes we're going toward Nash
vile, aud their attempt to give the
depota, wide berth first led to sus-
picion, and the fact that one of
them had on handouts lent color
to the belief that they were not
alright They were taken before
Justice j. M. CASTLE for examina-
ton. They gave rather incoher-
ent account concerning their re-
cent movements, some of which
were conflicting, and they we're
held for further investigation.
They gave the names of Hobo
George, Will Hall and Bob Peters.
Hobo George is a splendid speci-
men of a negro "hobo." 1t seems
that George had confded to the
other negroes that he had broke
jail at Murray, KY, which proved
to be true. Mr.. Baker, jailor at
Murray, came over yesterday and
identified the negro and took him
back to Murray. Hall and Peters
are still in Jail.

The strikers were members of the

who had just returned from trip east

who had just returned from trip east
stated that he had carried nothing in
his pockets but bills since he left home
many of the bills being 81 and 81
ones" said G. e. MacKinnon of the
Mechanics Savings bank yesterday
when asked what kind of money was
being circulated in Des Moines. and
that's characteristic of the east. The
nearer you are to Washington, d. c.,
where the money is printed, the more
81 and So bills are to be found. In fact,
in those eastern cities there is very lit
tie silver used. But in the middle west
the people don't like to use those bills,
for they are so very dirty by the time
they come out here. So silver has the
preference. But of late 1 notice that
the number of 81 and 50 bills used in
Des Moines is increasing. But the men
from the coast towns out west will
never take anything but gold. They
are used to handling gold, and call for
it, while in this city most people ask
for bank notes in preference to gold,
because they are not used to handling
gold, and fear they will pay it out by
mistake instead Of some smaller coin,
as a scent piece or a penny. The sort
of money people nave been used TO
handling makes all the difference in
the world"
A popular prejudice against the US
ing Of 81 and 50 bank notes in the west
exists because it is feared disease
germs are carried by paper money, es-
pecially the bills of smaller denomina-
ton, which change hands the more Of
ten In cities where small pox has been
known to exist, many banks accumu-
lated quite number of bank notes be-
cause their customers preferred not to
, handle them. The bankers sent the old
notes back to the government and had
them redeemed more frequently then
than now. Eastern bankers are said to
send in the bank notes to washington
for redemption oftener than do the
western bankers.
One dollar bills have been more or
less unpopular in Iowa because the ay-
erage individual thinks that they lock
cheap-that they indicate he is trying
to make big showing with little cash.
While they are more convenient than
the silver, it is not so many years ago
that the average individual, especially
the young men, would sort Of apologize
for rendering a 81 bill in payment fer
stuff.

DOLLAR BILLS POPULAR.

That Is Men Who Have Money OF
Any Kind Prefer Paper to Silver"
Des Moines, Oct. 10.-Dollar bills are
replacing silver dollars, gold is but lit
tie cared for, and a large amount or
small coin is being used in Iowa, &C
cording to the statements of leading
bankers. The marked difference be-
tween the kind of money used In the
east and in the middle west is dlsap-
pearing, and the money in circulation
is more like that Of the large eastern
cities than ever before.
The time was when 1t was easy to
tell where a man was from by the kind
of money he asked for ut bank. If
he wanted 81 and 50 bills, it was sure
indication that he was from the east.
If he asked for silver, 1T was ten
chances to one he lived in Iowa, and If
he asked for gold, it was sure thing
he lived in the west, along the coast
cities. The same is true today of the
man from the Pacific coast, but the
man in the middle west is using more
small bank notes than ever before.
Three-cent pieces and tWo-cent
pieces have almost entirely disappear
ed from circulation. and as conse-
duence, more pennies are going thru
the United States mint and are being
handled in Iowa more than formerly.
