fond remembrance. He was a member of the M. E. Church, South, at Jack so 1vifle. from the time of his young uted to it's support regularly For many years he had been member of the Masonic fraternity, and of him 1t can be truthfully said he was an up- right man and Mason, and wore the badge of the order with pleasure to himself and honor to the fraternity He was also member of the Southern Club in New York, the Confederate Vet erans and perhaps other social organ izations. While yet in the prime of life, with apparently many years of usefulness before him, the summons came which called him from labor to refreshment. from this earthly lodge to the Celestial lodge above. Fitting Masonic ceremonies were held over the body in New York. after which the re- mains under escort. in a casket GOV cred with flowers and evergreens, were started for the Sunny South, the land he loved and fought for, Alabama, the scene of the achievements of his early maEhood-Jacksonvill spot where the days of his happy boyhood were spent, the home that lay nearest his heart always.
 At Jacksonville his body was received by Masons, and, surrounded by sorrow ing relatives and friends, was tenderly laid to rest in the family burial plot beside his father and mother and other relatives. who had preceded him to the land above.

 "The malady which has taken from him his memory and mlrd had It's
 origin about three weeks ago. when
 he was stricken with severe head
 aches, which neither physicians nor
 patent medicine seemed able to stop.
 Gradually his mind deserted him nntil
 at last he had to appeal to the mem
 bers of his company to aid hin Tn
 remembering his lines.
 HIn the last week he learned Tor the
 first time how 1t feels to be hissed and booted at by an audience, and after he made the announcement to his company he broke down and cried like child. His heart had been broken. Applause had turned to hisses. Could the audience that hissed and cat called Eegleton in the part of Hans
 Nix" have gazed behind the scenes after the curtain had descended. It would have seen e sight that would have turned it's hisses to tears. s"A comedian. whose career until a few days ago had been flled with nothing but happiness and joy. sobbed unrcstraine edly, while around him was l a company of men and women sud denly thrown out of work, but crying

large and enthusiastic meeting or 4,,-, f.,xie Tunroyement League was held at ii o'clock yesterday morning at the Young women's Christian AssociaIion rooms. pr. Gaston Griel, City Phy- gfcian, and A. R. Gilchrist, City Ensl- neer, were present and the iadies wcte not only greatly encouraged by having renresentatives of the city government with them, but received valuable aio from them in the way of advice ana
 The most important subject under discussiou was the proper enforcement of ordinances for the disposition or waste and garbage, especially M thS N, business portions of the city. pr. oriel recommended that the League lay Ns wishes before the Mayor in the form or a memorial .
 There was a unanimous expression or eradication on the part of the iadies aAsembied, at the firm and proSressiVe stand of Mayor Teague in the enforce ment Of city ordinances, and especially i'm the abatement of the rspttung nus ance.
 A motion was made that memorial be. drawn up and presented ao W tne Mayor requesting that the ordinance with reference to throwing debris in inc streets be printed and posted m public places. and receptacles Tor waste he button the corners, but a discussion of the motion brought out so many I'm nortant points for consideration, such as the appointment of regular hours for the collection of garbage, and other details, that 1t was withdrawn ana re' Seys,.ed to a committee on resolutions citv Engineer Gilchrist informed the League that his department had set out over TOO trees during the year, and m answer to a suggestion by Miss E, Y, Andrews he mentioned that he had laid before the Council plans for making small parks and planting shade trees in the open spaces at the intersection of streets n those parts or the crtS that are yet to be paved.
 Mrs Lee offered a resolution, wnicn was unanimously adopted, that the Mayor be requested to require the te.- egraph and telephone companies to place their poles further away from the trees, as many handsome trees have been destroyed by electricity.
 The congested condition or the streets. especially the lower part oi Washington Avenue. was dlscusseo and also the condition of the mosquito breeding ponds in Cloverdale, but nc formal action was taken on these mat ters.
 Mrs. o. c. Coleman made an elo- uuent appeal for better care of the cemetery, and committee Of hve' con sistinE of Mrs. W. L. Durr. Mrs. B L.. wyman. Mrs. Mary Lee, Mrs. s. D seelye. with the chairman, Mrs. Cole man. was appointed to confer with the proper authorities regarding the mat ter.

 From childhood had been used to drinking coffee. and grew very fond of It. Fy
 when in course of time began to suffer from stomach and bowel troubles with accompanying head aches. pains in the chest and loss of ap- petite and flesh, was slow to suspect that coffee was the cause. My sister, who had used and knew the virtues Of Postom Food Coffee, persuaded me Co try it. I gave up the old kind of cof- fee with reluctance, thinking that \ would never find hot table drink that I would relish so well.

 My father was also a great conee drinker ana ~ 3acco user as well. and, I am sorry to say, too fond of liquor.

 We note with pleasure statement in the Montgomery Journal that Mir W A. Henderson will likely be- can didate for the senate from Montgomery County. MT. Henderson was for mum Der of years. a citizen of our county, a voter of this place, and he is now taxpayer, owning considerable prop erty in this county. During the dark days of reconstruction when the carpet bagger and the scalawag were menac- ing tho rights and liberties of our people and up to the time when he removed to Montgomery, he was com stant and effective worker in the dem ocratic ranks. and was always at tne front in the battles that our people fought in those trying times.

POpuIar Actor Known in MOntBOmer,
 From Stage.

Popular Actor Known in Montgomery
 From Stage.
 A special from Clinton, Iowa, tells of the physical collapse of Edward EagIeton, a popular comedian who is well known in Montgomery
 Last season Mr. Eagleton was princi- pal comedian of the Olympia Opera Company which paved four weeks at tho Casino Theatre. He had visited Montgomery prior to that time and has many friends here.
 The special says;
 While the audience in front of tho curtain hissed and yelled in derision, Edward Eagleton announced to his supporting company in The Telephone Girl that the show had been closed and that he himself was about to go to New York to enter a sanitarium in the hope that the remnants of his shatter- cd mind might be preserved.
 He believes he is going Insane, and his physician has told him that with in a week he will be in an asylum. The comedian hopes that the treat ment in the sanitarium will save him from the humiliation of having to go to the asylum.
 Tn this sad manner has ended the stage car eer of a nan who has amused the American playgoing public for the last thirty years--for Eagleton declares that he has made his last public ap- pearance. He realized that his work was bad. but refused to close until he was able to pay his supporting com pany the salary for the entire week.
 During his career ESgleton made name for himself as comedian. At one time he was a Western comic opera idol. scoring his grestest success in Wang in which he starred on the Pacific Coast.
 .sThe denoented comedian has also made and lost a fortune. Several years ago, while in New orleRnS. he
