IN MEMORY OF
A. W. LYON.

At meeting of Maury Lodge, No.
1877, X. of P, on March 27th, 1906,
the following paper was adopted
Mr.. A. W. Lyon was born at Lee
vile, near Lebanon Ienn.,, nearly
fifty years ago-he being in his 5Oth
year at death. His father died when
he was fifteen years old, and as he was
the oldest child of the family. even
at that early age, he had on his shout
ders the heavy burdens of life. lie
was TO a large extent, a self made
man, not having the advantages OF
schooling, after that period. AS
is often the case. tie responsibilities
of life developed In hIm the traits OF
noble manhood.
For number of years he worked
with Mr.. S. A. Conner, keeping his
books. At the time of Mr.. Lyon
death. and for number of years pre-
ceeding, he was the head book-keeper
for the great phosphate companies,
located at Mt. Pleasant, Tenn, and
was considered one of the finest book
keepers in this section of the State.
He was man possessing the high
est traits of character, and hence was
devoted husband and father, a re-
spected citizen, and an honored bust
ness man. He leaves a wife, two sons,
a mother-in-law, Mrs. S. A. Conner,
and a host of relatives and friends to
mourn his loss.
He was a member of the Sam Davis
lodge, No. 1853, X. of P. at CentreV1lle,
Tenn. On the oath of March, 1906
$3.50 a. m. he breathed his last, sur
rounded and mourned by his beloved
family and relatives.

It is true that 60 per cent OF the
deaths among the Sioux and Yankton
Indians now are from tuberculosis.
but it is also true that fifty years ago
tuberculosis was unknown among the
Indians. and has fastened upon them
only since the coming Of the white
man to- Dakota.

side Lights ON the HOME Rule Movement.

Side Lights On the Home Rule Movement.
In many books that nave been published
during the last quarter OF a century We
have seen the Home Rule movement dis
cussed from the viewpoint OF Irish National
lists. but scarcely anything has been printed
in the United States on the other side OF
the question. That there is another side
is believed, Of course, by a good many
Irish P~rotestants. and by all British Union
ists, who for the ten years preceding the
last general election constituted a large
majority OF the voters in Great Britain.
The Unionists, indeed, would probably
be dominant to-day in h House Of Com
mons had not Mr.. Chamberlain made the
tactical blunder OF committing most Of
them to q renunciation OF the principles Of
free trade. As it 10, they retain 30 large
a majority in the House Of Lords that it
Is doubtful whether the concessions which
the Bannerman Government purposes to
make to the Irish NationAlists will get
placed upon the statute book. Be that
as IL may, Sir ROBERT ANDERSON Of the
Secret Service has deemed the time oppor-
tune TO bring out a volume Of "reminiscences
dealing principally with incidents about
which his Official experience enabled him
10 acquire some inside knowledge. His
book Is aptly enough entitled Side Lights

in his Introductory chapter that many
current beliefs, TO which Morley's biogra-
ply OF Gladstone, being the work Of an ex-
Minister for Ireland, gives a q~uasi-offciaI
sanction, are unfounded. Mr.. Morley as
sumes, for instance, that the Fenian move
ment originated on Irish soil as the natural
outcome OF bad land laws and the presence
OF ian alien Church. He represents the
outrages Of 1851 ct Manchester and ClerEen-
well as the work OF a deeply rooted con-
spiracy, and thus as being events that
rightly forced ..the Irish question to the
front. On other matters, such as the Par
nell Commission, he presents, in our authors
opinion, a wholly misleading picture, not
so much by any departure from the truth
as by exhibiting facts and persons in a false
perspective, Morley's book is pronounced,
in short, the work Of a dramatist rather
than Of O historian.
