Obituary, Mrs. J. |. Campbell.

One of the deepest shadow 8
which has ever come over our
church, was caused by the death
of our beloved sister, Matte
Campbell. She was born March
10th, 1873, in Atlanta, Ga. A
few years later her father, Major
M. BULGE, moved to Bolton, Ga.
1t was there, while young, she
gave her heart to Jesus and
united with the Baptist church,
and was baptized by Rev. Chas.
Brown. She was married to Mr..
James l. Campbell January 3rd,
1895. Afterward they came to
Fitzgerald to make their home,
where they lived happily together
for a little over ten years. On
May 9th, 1905, she was called
from her erathly to her heavenly
home.
Sister Campbell was a dutlful
daughter, a devoted sister, an
obedient wife and loving mother J..
| She leaves father, mother, bro
Their, sisters, husband and two
precious little ones, besides the
church and a large circle of
friends to sorrow, but thank God
our sorrow is not that of those
who have no hope, for her death
was a glorious triumph of a
christian faith-a faith prepared
by the activities of a consecrated
christian life. She was a most
devout christian; sought to live
| in sweet communion with her
Savior, and did what she could to
extend His kingdom in the world i.
WHEREAS; God in His infinite
wisdom hath seen fit to call our
sister to Himself. Let us bow
in hum BILE submission to the will
of Him who doeth all things we'll;
therefore, be it Resolved,
THAT, we extend to the bereav-
ed families, our coincidence, SYM
pathy and prayers, in their sor-
row and loss, knowing that our
loss is her eternal gain.
THAT, copy of these resolu-
tons be spread upon the Minutes
of the church book, and a copy
be presented to the Fitzgerald
Enterprise for publication.

Open parliament on the best

churches, was to go to them and
churches in our association. Dis
cussion led by Mrs. ]. E. De

King Leopold of Belgium, in this
case, does not properly come in the
category of crowned heads, because
much of his private fortune of $780,
100000 was made in the shrewdest of
financial and commercial operations.

THE FAIR MADE MONEY.
Nearly All Stock Subscriptions Are
Fully Paid Up.

The Lewis and Clark has a smaller
list of delinquent subscriptions for
stock in the corporation than any fair
that has ever been held on a stock
basis. Secretary Henry E. Reed de-
clares that at the present time the
delinquencies do not exceed 1-2 per
cent of the amount subscribed and es-
Inmates that the percentage will be re-
duced to IA per cent before the
corporation is finally dissolved. says
the Oregon Daily Journal.
The nearest approach to the record
of the Lewis and Clark exposition was
that OF Chicago. Delinquencies to
stock subscriptions to the great
worlds fair of the Windy City
amounted to per cent. At Omaha,
II is said. the number who failed to
pay their subscriptions was so large
that the percentage of delinquencies
was Is.
The Lewis and Clark fair corpora
tion was capitalized at 100000. The
sum of S417,612 was subscribed,
principally by citizens OF Portland
and railroad companies that were in
terested in the proposition. or that
amount the books of the company
showed yesterday that 100000 had
been paid up and certificates issued.
The differences leaves a delinquency
of between IA and 3 1-2 per cent.
Financial statements of other ex-
positions show that the record OF the
Portland fair is the best that has
ever been made complete state
ment of the amount of surplus will
not he made until the business of
the corporation is completed.
II is estimated that 80 per cent
reimbursement will be paid on the
stoc. The estimate is made upon the
calculation that the surplus will
amount to 100000. 1t probably will
he more than that.
The surplus is to be divided among
2475 stockholders who have fully paid
up. 1t rests solely with them what
disposition will be made of the money.
Suggestions from others, 1t Is said
will not be considered when the dis
tribution is made.

That was Lincoln's famous reply to
those who urged him to make a change
in generals at a critical period of the
Civil war.
Lincoln's saying is worth remember

scribed as ojust as good" at the critical
time when health is at stake.

cry is a medicine which has a record of
ninety EIGHT per cent. of cures. 1t is an
absolutely reliable family medicine, nom

should any one who is seeking cure
for sickness, and is persuaded that the

MORE MONEY THAN THEY CAN USE

Here is the latest word on that most
engrossing of all great political-econ-
omioal subjects-concentra of the
worlds wealth. says the New York
Sunday World.
one hundred men and women, pool
ing their riches, could buy the whole
of New York City at its present as
sessed valuation.
Beginning with John d. Rockefeller,
with his billion dollars made out of
OIL and ending with Henry Payne.
with his ten millions made out of fl
nancial operations, the total wealth of
these one hundred individuals amounts
to $6,74O, 100000.
The assessed valuation of New York
city's real estate, exclusive of that rep
resented by public parks and other
public institutions is, in round num-
bers, $4,000, 100000. Addition of the
value of the public property Of the city
would make the total not more than
the combined wealth of the 100 per-
sons named in the list printed on this
page, together with the most reliable
estimate of the wealth of each and
mention of the means whereby II was
gained.
In preparing for publication a SIM
| liar list the Paris Figaro newspaper,
some weeks ago painstakingly inter-
viewed financial authorities in most of
the leading cities of America and Eur
! ope. Its list-lately published with
comments on the economical condi-
tons involved in such a concentration
of the worlds wealth-was fairly ac-
curate in the main, but was under the
mark in some notable instances. John
d. Rocke feller, for example, it placed
fifth from the top, quoting him al
"over" $3.50, 100000.
1t will be seen that the four greatest
producers of private fortunes in the
world are oil, diamonds, gold mines
and inheritance, I'm the order named
as represented respectively by John d
Rockefeller, Alfred Belt and j. B
Robinson, of South Africa, and the
Car of Russia. Three of these indi
viduals dug out of the earth virtual!

ed 1907, 100000. The next largest in
herited fortune is that of William Wal
dorf Astor-S200, 0O0, 900.
1t is interesting to note that witt
the exception of the czar of Russia
the Austrian emperor, with $6S5, 900,
900, and the Shah of Persia, who in
herited $100.00O.O0O, the crowne
heads of the world today cut rather

WHEAT WILL BE A LOSS.
Snow Falls on Unthreshed Grain in
Palouse Country.

The first snow of the season fell
throughout the Palouse country yes
terday. Snow fell i'm the eastern half
of Whitman county. Wash, and eX-
tended into the Coeur d Alene noun
tains in Idaho. says a Colfax dispatch.
The snow is said to have been unusu-
ally heavy in the mountains, but in
the grain belt it did not reach great
er depth than four inches, although
enough snow fell to make twice that
depth had it not melted as rapidly as
it fell. Some damage was done to
fruit and shade trees by the heavy fall
of wet snow coming while the foliage
was still on the trees, and the COM
bined weight broke many of them
down.
This snow, coming after so much
rain, effectually kills all hope of saw
ing a vast amount of unthreshed
grain. and the total loss in Whitman
and adjoining counties is placed as
high as 100000 bushels. Much of
this grain is standing in the shock and
cannot be saved, even If good weather
should follow, which is not likely,
The grain has sprouted and IL badly
nodded, swollen and bleached. II will
be fit only for feed for livestock and
much of 1t will not be even good feed.
