Fish.

Edmore.-One of the phenomena
surrounding this place, is the great
number of minnows in the coulee be-
low the reservoir dam. There were q
large number of these minnows last
year, but this spring their numbers
are greatly increased and on a bright
sunny day thousands Of these minia-
ture fishes the size of ladys pocket
knife may be seen clustering about
the rocks and close to the edges Of the
stream. There is no visable inlet or
outlet to this coulee connecting 1t with
any large body of water, so where SO
many fishes come from is q problem
not easily to solve, besides during dry
weather the coulee goes dry except
the artificial reservoir, and as there 10
no possible way of these little fish get
ting over the dam into deeper water
they must perish with the coming
winter.

Rust.

Fargo-Reports of rust in the wheat
fields of North Dakota at this early
stage have been diligently circulated
and SO grossly exaggerated that they
are beginning to have their effect upon
the business of the Red river valley
and the manipulaters of grain markets
in the Twin Cities, Duluth and Chicago
are taking advantage of the reports
to affect the prices of wheat. The re-
port that rust had been discovered in
barberry bushes and that this was an
indication of probable rust on wheat
has resulted in great injury to the
state.
The danger of rust has been grossly
exaggerated There is rust every year
but some years it is more injurious
than others The rust that has been
found on the barberry bushes this
year is not the very destructive rust as
that obtained last year. It is the
milder sort, and even It it were not,
the fact that barberry bushes have
some rust on them is not q reason
why a great scare should be promul-
gated.

In Memoriam.

Mrs. Leah Rineheart, who died
at her beautiful home on the
Southern Pacific Railroad near
New Orleans, on the 10Th of No
vem5er, 1904, was the wife of
John Rineheart, one of Louisi-
ana's best railroad men. She died
with slow fever, though every
thing that could be was done tor
her. She was attended by one OF
New Orleans most learned ply
siclans, and had also a trained
nurse; but God knew bsst, and
said sit is finished" She bore
her suffering without a frown,
and her death was calm and
peaceful. At her death she was
twenty six years OF age.
She had formerly lived here,
and thought there was no place
ike Scooba; and her husband
brought her remains here, and
laid them to rest among the peo-
pie whom in life she had loved
SO well. Individual grief touched
our hearts and raised the deepest
sympathy when the word came
that Leah was dead. 1t was a
bright Sabbath evening, as bright
and clear as the lite just closed.
She had fought a hard battle, but
all in vain. She seemed to be so
hopeful to the last moment. She
would never speak of dying, but
as she passed away she seemed to
think of the beautiful home be
yond, where her suffering would
be no more.
She left three little girls, the
oldest just three years of age and
the youngest just three weeks.
She was SO happy with. her little
ones. Little did she think that
the Lord would call her so soon.
Our Saviour says, watch as we'll
as pray !; we know not when the
death angel will come. Our sym
patty goes out to the bereaved
husband and little ones.

Death Loves a Shining Mark

The subject on this memoriam,
Miss M. A. Lloyd, was born Au
gust 18th, 1887, and died April
Bird, 1905, at the old home near
Spinks, in Kemper County, Miss.
She was a daughter Of John E.
and Olive Spinks Lloyd, decd,
pioneer settlers OF these parts.
Hers, truly, was a beautiful
life. Possessing, naturally, a rare
mind, and enjoying liberal advan-
tages for her day (which she full
ly appreciated), she became a
competent leader aud teacher
wherever her lot was cast. She
spent fifteen years OF her life
the best of her life-in hard serv
ice in the schoolroom. She spent
most OF this service in her own
|county-K per, but taught
some in the adjoining county OF
Neshoba, and some even in the
State of Tennessee. Her heart
was in the work. She delighted
in unfolding the minds OF the
young, and in lifting them to
higher and nobler lives.
She Joined the Baptist Church
at Liberty after reaching mature
years, and was baptized by Elder
g. Gay, so long her pastor
Thoughtfully and deliberately
she consecratel her life to the
service of her Master. But she
did not cease to be a teacher.
With this browning accomplish
ment, her work and influence in
creased among US, and today we
of Liberty realize what a treasure
we have lost We feel there is
no one to take her place.
Ever cheerful, even in her at
diction, she could see the brighter
side OF lite, and in all things she
bowed submissively to the will OF
Him who doeth all things well.
For many years she and an
older maiden sister, "Aunt Pat
have occupied the old home. 1t
lonelier now-bnt "Aunt Sa
49," a widowed sister, comes to
the rescue, and the doors are still
open at the old home. And you
will find a welcome at the door
from which so many have come
and gone. "Aunt Mag" is sim
ply gone on before to welcome
you in that beautiful city, the
home of the blessed. Il. Il. e.

Newspaper Rulings.
INTERESTING DECISIONS AY UNITED
TATES SUPREME COURT AS TO h
LIABILITY OF SUBSCRIBERS.

/. If subscribers order the discon-
tinuance of theii periodicals, the pub
Usher may continue t, send same until
all arrearages are paid.
2. If subscribers refuse to take
their periodicals from the postofice to
which they are addressed, they are re-
sponsible until they have settled their
bills and ordered the paper Ter other
periodically discontinued.
3 If subscribers move to other
p'aces without informing the publisher,
and the papers are sent to the former
address, subscribers are responsible.
4 The Court has decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
postofice, or removing and having
them uncalled for, is prima facie evil
dence of intentional fraud.
5. If subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish to
continue the periodical; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to continue
sending it and the subscriber is respon-
sible until an cypress notice, with pay
ment of all ar.earages, is sent to the
publisher.
G. The latest postal laws are such
that a newspaper man can arrest any
one for fraud that takes his paper and
refuses to pay for it. Under the law,
the mar who allows his subscription to
run along Tor some time unpaid and
then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it refused and
has a postal card sent notifying the
publisher Of such fact, renders himself
liable to prosecution, arrest and fine,
the same as for theft.
