 The writer had the pleasure to listen to Rev. Geo. l.. Hancock. the new minister at the Church of the Good shepherd last sunday morning, and we must say. without 1lattery. that we were greatly pleased with him in every way He has d good appearance, d splendid voice, excellent delivery, clear pronunciation. and thorough familiari- ty with the service. We think per haps he is the first Episcopal minister we ever heard preach without notes. He did so, and his sermon was of d most instructive nature. There were no dramatic effects, but plenty which appealed to the sober thought of the soul Rev. Hancock is very genial. and We hope he will meet with that sweet cordialty and hospitality for which Forrest City is noted far and near. He has his announcements in this paper each week. and cordially in Hltes the public to come 10 church.

G. ". CHRISTIAN.

Mir. c. W. Christian is officially announced in this paper as a can didate for re election 10 the off ce of Surveyor of St. Francis county. subject to the acton of the demo. cratic party.
 During his present incumbency he has accomplished 6 vast amount of work, and so far as we know, it has been thoroughly satisfactory, and automatically correct.
 The office of Surveyor is not gen. orally looked upon as important, while the fact of the matter is. it is the most responsible of all the offices. It is the competency of the Survey or npon which you rely and depend for the accuracy of your deeds, and one should be specially fitted by study and ap- premiership 10 discharge such duties accurately and acceptably.
 Nr. Christian has shown by his work that he is thoroughly com petent, and lie Is candidate upon his merits.
 He has been quite unfortunate for several months by having sick ness in his family and is oven now watching at the bedside of a sweet httIe 3 year old boy wboso life has been threatened by disease.
 MT. Christian is a democrat and a surveyor, and he earnestly soli. cits the suffrage of his fellow-cltl. zens in this contest. We bespcak for him your kindly and favorable consideration.

There are between 2500 and 5000 cords of stave bolts stacked on the wards at this place.
 Bott Eros. had their bolt saw brought to this place last Friday.
 We have been informed that ". I. Littletield and MT. Bill Lancaster, of Wynne, will go into the mercantile business at this place soon.
 R. J. Lanier will furnish power for the bolt saw that IS under construction at this place.
 Mr. WIll Jordan, of Goodwin Ak, was at Caldwell last Friday. He took the evening train for Wynne, for the purpose of visiting his father, S. I. Jor- dan.
 This community was shocked last Monday evening by the intelligence of the death of James II. Bynum. The writer has known thls man frow boy hood, and even in childhood. He was noted for truthfuneSs and honesty.
 Jim was a great reader and thinker from mere tot. and being in posses slOn of more than an average intellect. he had gathered vast store 0t knowl. edge. Belng in possession of thls most valuable article, he was enabled to ac. cumulate good share of this worlds goods, which leaves his family well pro- vided for. lie also left about $2, loo of insurance.
 He was an obedient son. a loving companion and a model father-one that ruled with irmneSs and love. He was a conservative member of the Christian Church, a good neighbor and a true friend. He was taken with pneu. monla, but fought II with untirng energy for more than two weeks, until 1t sapped him of his vitality, and when he felt that he must go, he gave in StructlonS to those that he had chosen to help his wife with her business, and later lie called his wife to bis bedside and told her that he could not stay with her, but that she could come 10 him. He seemed to cOnslgn himself exclusive " to Gods will, and as death frightened its icy arms around him his breathing became shorter, until he finally ceased to breathe and he looked as if he had fallen asleep. and one could only think ot the following lines:
 Dearest father. thou hast left us,
 And our loss we deeply feel,
 But 'ti~God that has bereft us,
 lie can all our sorrows heal.
 Yet again we hope 10 meet thee,
 When the day of life is fled.
 When Tn Heaven with joY 10 greet thee
 Where no farewell tears are shed.
 He leaves wife. five children, a father, seven brothers and sisters. two aunts, and host of other relatives and friends 10 mourn their loss. The be l reayed family and friends have our greatest sympathy in their bereave- nnni but We can only point them to ! 4n ail-wise Creator, who can heal an . their sorrows for their consolation.

REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE
ENDORSED ROOSEVELT

The Republican Executive Commit
mittee of the First Congressional Dis
trict met in the Office of the Savannah
Tribune yesterday and decided to hold
the district convention in Savannah,
Feb. 10. The convention is called for
the purpose of electing two delegates
and two alternates to the National
Republican Convention which meets in
Chicago in June. The ACCESSIBILITY of
naming a candidate for Congress will
also be discussed at the convention.
The convention was presided over by
Chairman Deveaux and Secretary w.
E. Moore called the roll of counties.
Three were only seven delegates who
responded to their names, the others
being represented by proxy The del
egates were from Chatham Emanuel
and bingham.
The first business was the adoption
of resolutions indorsing the administra-
ton of President Roosevelt and recon-
mending that the district convention
instruct the delegates elected to cast
their votes for his nomination.
Several caucuses were held during
the day at the office of Col. Deveaux
and Secretary Moore is authority for
the fact that a resolution was adopted
in the caucus eliminating voters who
had not complied with the general re-
quirements of the franchise laws of
Georgia from participating in conven-
lions.
He also stated that it had been prac-
tically agreed upon that Capt. Henry
Blum, Jr., and ]. II. Deveaux were to
be named delegates to the National
Convention,
