In Loving Memory Of Fannie.

On the 10th of March, the death
Angel came to the home CT Mr.,
A. III. White, and called his be-
loved wife, Mrs. Fannie White.
All who knew, admired and loved
this beautiful young woman, are
bowed down in sorrow, that deatf
should have so early claimed her
Sympathy goes out unbidden Il
her stricken husband. She leaves
four little helpless children, anc
many friends to mourn her death,
Sister, thou vast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze;
Pleasant as the air of evening,
When it floats among the trees.
Dearest sister, thou hast left US,
Here thy loss we deeply feel,
But tits God that has bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave SO low;
Thou no more will join our number,
Thou no more our songs shall know

The Children of the Future.

The New York Observer terse-
ly and wisely says: Zone lesson
of the terrible disaster at the Iro-
quois Theater in Chicago, appears
to have escaped attention by the
public-and that is the folly and
senseIessness of dragging children
to theaters at all. Many if not
most of the victims of the fire in
Chicago were children, whose
foolish parents took them to scenes
where their imagination was un-
duly stimulated and, as it prov
ed in this case, their lives were
lost. Many times school teachers
make this lamentable mistake of
overstimulating the minds of the
little folks by contact with gayish
scenes and exciting shows. 1t is
far better for the children to be al
lowed to develop quietly and nor
mally at home or at school. If
this is the new pedagogy let us
60 back to the old saner methods
of training, pursued in a less
nervous and novelty hunting age y
Apropos the new pedagogy"
O. versus the old, we would like
to take a step backward if you
please, toward first principles in
one particular matter that has
come under our observation in
Brookhaven. Some of our lead
ing merchants have from time to
time, rendered days of service and
generous offerings free to their
patrons, as inducements to trade;
and, incidentally, complimentary
to the town that nurtures such en-
|terprising establishments and her
people who support them.
Behold On the day set, these
places of business are sWarmed
with children, who devour every
thing in sight and cry for more
all at once, while patrons stand
waiting or leave unserved, and
the statesmen or women are literal
ly crashing their teeth at the soil
ed table linen left behind and the
time they have had to waste on
children who were never invited
at all.
Some parents are compelled to
take their little ones with them
or stay at home; some children
come without permission of par
ents perhaps; but, be this as it
may, it seems to the writer, who
is a disinterested observer, that it
should be borne in mind that chill
dren are not included in business
invitations or social engagements.
Our old colored nanny
used to say "chillun orter stay
where dey berlong, = and we be-
lieEed it then and believe it now.

If you want to increase your strength
you must add to and not take from
the physical. In other words, the
food that you eat must be digested,

Cobb County Does Not Think That
Clayton Is Entitled to the Sena-
tOrship-MOre Will BE Heard From
the Waterway Clerk johnson of
the Atlanta POstOIice Arrested on
Charge of EmbezzIement.
Atlanta. March 4.--There was quite
a row in the ranks of the Fulton Coun-
ty Democratic Executive Committee,
which met this afternoon, ostensibly
only for the purpose of changing the
date of the county primary from April
IA to April 20. the date of the state
primary. After this change was made
resolutions were presented, committing
Fulton county to Clayton countys cam
didate for senator from the Thirty
fifth district.
There is a dispute between Clayton
and Cobb as to which county is en-
titled to the senator this time. In 1898
r. T. Nesbitt of Cobb was nominated
senator, and resolutions were then
adopted. giving Fulton county two
terms. following Cobbs term. The
resolutions then provided that Cobb
should have one term, Clayton one
term and Fulton two.
Cobb county contends that under the
resolutions it is entitled to the senator,
and Senator Clay's law partner, Mr..
Blair, has announced for the position.
In Clayton Hon. Alfred Blalock has
announced his candidacy, and Clay
tons people are claiming the Office be-
cause that county has not had the
senatorship since 1897.
The resolution in the Fulton coun-
ty committee brought on a hot fight
and there was all sorts of political
scrappng. The scrimmage finally
ended in the adoption of the resolu
tons by a vote of IA to 10, committing
the county Democracy to Clayton's
candidate. This, however, is by no
means the end of the fight.
Lincoln County far Parker.
Lincoln county has already selected
delegates to the state convention, de-
spite the fact that the state primary
is six weeks off. Dr. w. B. Crawford
and Hon. ]. r. Hogan were named as
delegates. and while the mass meeting
at which these delegates were named
did not desire TO instruct them, reso-
buttons were adopted expressing a
preference for Judge Alton B. Parker
of New York as the nominee for
President of the Democratic party.
