Tribute of Respect to the Me
mory Of Mrs. p. T. Twitty.

Many hearts were saddened
with a cloud OF sorrow, when it
was known that Mrs. P.T.Twitty
had passed over the "beautiful
river" Mrs. Twitty died on
the last day of the year, Dec.
81, 1905, leaving a heart broken
husband and seven devoted chill
dren. She was sick for over a
year,but vas confined to her bed
only a few days before her death.
She wa never known TO COM
plain, but always looked forward
to the time when she would be
well again, but God, in His mys
terious way, called her home.
Death loves a shining mark,
and so often the good, the true,
and The beautiful are taken first.
AS a friend, Mrs. Twitty was
strong and firm; as a wife,
true and faithful; as a mother,
devoted and tender. She had
such a modest, bright and
happy disposition that "none
knew her but to love her, none
named her but TO praise her"
She did not leave one blot or
stain upon her beautiful life or
fair name. She never spoke an
unkind word OF any one, but al
ways looked for that which was
good in anyone. She was a faith
Iul member of the Heath Springs
Baptist church and Of the Wo-
mans Missionary Society. Be-
fore her health failed, her place
was eve vacant, but she was
ever ready to assist in any good
work. But she is gone-gone in
the midst of her usefulness,
gone when it seems we needed
her most. We know not why it
came, but God knows;-let that
suffice. He who has lower to
wound, has also power TO heal.
She now rests from her labors
and her good works will follow
her. In consideration of the
above facts, we offer the follow.
ing resolutions
l.. That in the death of Sister
Twitty the w. M. S. of the

Mr.. Sousa's soloists.


Miss Jeanette Powers,d gifte
young violinist, has just returned
from sthree years study abroad
under the tutorage of Jochim and
Markees in Berlin, and Geloso in
Paris. She was with Jochim two

great genius for the violin and will
make her mark"
Miss Powers has studied the violin

York to study with Leopold Lichten-
berg at the National conservatory.
Upon her arrival in Berlin she i'm
mediately entered the Royal Hoch

HOW RUSSELL SAGE
PRACTICES ECONOMY

New York World:
DIR. Feodor Won Raitz describes how
"Uncle' Russell Sage runs an apart
ment on an economical plan. 1t Ill
came out in connection with suit de-
cided in the supreme court in favor of
Mr. Sage and against DR.. Won Raitz.
DR.. Won Raitz rented an apartment
from Mr.. Sage. The rent was $65 a
month and; the amount sued for by Mr..
Sage was $1e5.
IT took the apartment for patient"
said the doctor, land when she moved
in everything in the house was ship
shape. There were two bellboys, a
telephone, heat in abundance and all
the beds in order. :
"suddenly one bellboy was dropped
and the remaining one never answered
the telephone.
"Then the bells got out of order and
people had to pound on, the doors to
be heard. Finally the heat faded away
and there was absolutely no comfort
left.
my patient: was compelled to move
and when she was gone Mr.. Sage's
agent said: I'm glad she's out. She
was no ornament to the house, sitting
there with her face all tied up"

Finally the cashier came out, walked
into the Junior partners room with a

the door. Ten minutes passed and then
the bell rang. The stenographer turned
white as she was told that she was

Yes, did," she said spitefully.

Mr.. Jonas. the collection clerk, and
Mr. Willdon, the bookkeeper, were
summoned. and for two minutes they
withered under the scorching. cutting

Checkers has certainly won most
unusual amount Of praise from the
critics as we'll as the public at
large. 1t has in the note Of love
for those for whom the @tpld, old
story" is still interesting. And 1t
is told in this play in sweet,
charming way. Then there is the
thrill of fierce excitement in the race
track scene for such as love to feel
their nerves tingle. And 1t is of this
scene that so much has been writ
ten in high complimentary, terms.
And then there is, not the tear, ex-
actiy, but. the lump in the throat
once in a while, and lastly, there is
the laugh for all, the short, sharp
explosive laugh, caused by some
snappy line and the contagious cum
ulative laugh which grows with the
situation till 1t sprcaos all over the
house. In short, it is said that
Checkers" is a rlttling good play

Of the excitement. Smoke filled toe

fashion tied dainty lace edged hand
kerchiefs over their mouths before
plunging into the sitting Railways.
The girls bravely dragged their hose

the signal was given for those above
to turn on the water. After a few MIN

extinguisned.
The damage is estimated at $1,000.
Much of this is due to water, as the

'"rhe instant Miss Powers drew her
bow over the strings in the first
notes of Mendelssohn's Concerto in
l. minor the hand of THE master was
revealed. All through her perform
ance, she held her audience spell
bound. She plays with great fire

Miss Elizabeth Schiller, colorature

voices that are superb in their pene-
trating yet sympathetic quality, and
lend themselves easily to those songs
that demand dazzle of execution,
with particular emphasis upon high
rotes. Miss Schiller is American
born, and has had instruction under
the best teachers of Chicago and New
York. Just how rare colorature
singers are, may be realized from
the fact that at the Metropolitan
opera house, New York, there is only
one, Nine. Marcella Sembrich, and
that if suddenly she were to drop
out of the Conried ranks, it would
be next to impossible to replace her.

There are few more difficult thinsa
to detect in nature than a woodcock
sitting on her nest.
So well does the dappled plumage of
the bird harmontze with the dead
leaves of which the nest Ia composed,
or, maybe, with the withered branch
that overhangs it. that 1t is hard to
make out much more than the sitting
birds darxly barred head and bright
black eyes: to trace the outline of the
body is impossible.
Nor is it easy to find the nest when
the bird Is absent, for the cream col.
