diseased portion ofthe ear. There Is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-

famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf

tiOu can be taken out and this lube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be de-

Death of Mrs. z. D. Davis.

Yesterday morning at 2 o'clock
the bright spirit of Mrs. 2. D.
Davis took its flight. She died,
after more than two yeals of great
suffering, at her home in Jack
son. All who knew, admired and
loved this brilliantly beautiful
young woman, are bowed down in
sorrow that death should have so
early claimed her; and sympathy
goes out unbidden to her stricken
husband, son and sorrowing loved
ones.
Mrs. Davis was, formerly, Miss
Mamie D. Younkin, of this city;
and 1t seems but yesterday that
she stood before the altar, the
most radiant bride in the annals
of the town, and one whose sub
sequent life was as full of
sunshine, social and domestic joy
as the devoted heart of her knightly
and generous husband could make
it.
Her home was a delight not
only to herself and to her own
family, but to her friends who
loved to linger within its open
portals. But there is no armor
against death.
Mrs. Davis died as if overcome
by sleep and passed to her reward.
Lo! across the eastern skies.

eyes

A GOOD MAN GONE.
Sudden Death Of President |. 7. Fitz-
hugh. Of Belhaven College.

Daily Clarion Ledger, March 14.]
In the death of DR.. Lewis T.
Fitzhugh, president of Belhaven
College, the city of Jackson has
suffered an irreparable loss, the
state the loss of one of it's most
useful citizens, and the South one
of its most distinguished edu-
Gators.
Death came upon him suddenly
on Sunday afternoon while he sat
talking to his family. There was
no struggle, no pain, no suffer-
ing, and he entered upon his eter-
nal rest as peacefully as a tired
child would lie down to sleep.
Though in bad health for
several months, his condition be-
coming so serious at times that he
was forced to seek relief at the
hands of expert physicians of
Memphis and Chicago, his family
and most intimate friends, ms
pired by his own cheerfulness and
optimistic view Of the future and
his physical condition, were
bueyed up by the hope that the
trouble had been conquered and
thai he was to be spared to them
for years to come.
But the Grim Reaper has gath
cred him to his honored fathers
and there are thousands who
mourn him as friend and neigh
boz, who appreciate the fact that
thu loss to the community is. a
severe one, and who realize that
one of Gods greatest and noblest
creations, an honest man, has
gone to his reward.
For many years since just
after the war, an unpleasantness
INF which though not out of his
teans, he played his part we'll,

that he undertook, but kind and
gentle withal, so that those who
encountered him and surrendered

had simply won a victory over
themselves, and that it was for the
bdst.
mo man had more strong per-
scnal friends, no man had fewer
enemies. He was a gentleman of

Of which, sad to relate, are rapidly
d5cimated, and the South will

The Leader generally throws
all anonymous communications
into the waste-basket, but as the
one below is wholly non-personaI
and refers to a subject of general
interest, we publish it for what it
is worth.
If there are really 300 families
of negroes of Lincoln county who
have made up their minds to leave
Mississippi for other states, we
suggest that it would be wise for
them to steer clear of Springfield,

from late occurrences in that par

might jump from the frying pan
