seemed to think that the Lord
had intended it for his good in
order to prepare him for his ap-
preaching dissolution. He was
resigned to his fate and expressed
no fears of the future. Frank
Herring was man of indefatig.
able energy, and the county
never had a more untiring hus-
tier. He was a true friend to
those for whom he professed
friendship and was a generous
provider for his family, although
his long illness had reduced him
TO poverty. He lived on the
Barnes farm, four or five miles
south of Dalton, but was at Ex-
celsior Springs when the sad end
came, having gone their for the
benefit of his health. His re-.
m aims were brought to Keytes-
vile at 1886 Sunday morning,
thence to Asbury chapel where
touching and impressive funeral
services were held by Rev. Robt.
McIlvoy, at the conclusion OF
which interment was had in As
bury cemetery. We extend our
heartfelt sympathies to the be-.
reaved widow, the two children
and other relatives.
Marie Correlli's "Thelma," a
drama in four acts, was pro-
duced at the Russell opera.
house in Brunswick to a large
audience Wednesday night.
The plot was all that could have
been asked, and the play was
we'll staged and elaborately cos
tuned, but some of those who
took part spoke rather indis-
tinctly at times and this greatly
detracted from the effecte. The
speciality musical feature in
troduced by Jules and Louise
Van Cook was highly enjoyed,
and particularly so because the
play proper was very sad and
was lacking in the lighter vein
that causes one to forget their
own troubles. The music by
Prof. G. D. Marshall's orchestra
was of a high class. One of the
selections, "Russell Opera House
March," was composed by Prof.
Marshall, and was dedicated to
the efficient opera house man
ayers, DR.. J. S. Wallace and F.
G.. Sasse. This march was not
o My creditable to it's composer,
but was most pleasing in its ex-
ecution by the orchestra.

So far March has been on its
good behavior and the weather
for the most part during the
