The W0Odmen Picnic a Grand Success.
Many Visiting Sovere9ns with Their Families Take Part
in the Ceremonies Of the Day.
SEVERAL GOOD SPEECHES MADE.

The program arranged by the
local camp Woodmen of the
World was carried out in the full
detail, and the occasion was one
that will long be remembered by
those present. At eleven o'clock
the procession was formed at the
hall on Spring street and a line
of march taken up to the grounds
of the graded school. The pro-
cession was headed by a float up
on which a string band rendered
most excellent music. The band
was composed of the Messers
Cochran of Mantachie. Follow
ing Tupelo Camp in uniform with
eighteen other camps represen
ted in the line. Arriving at the
grounds, Hon. John M. Allen in
his own inimitable way extended
a most cordial welcome to the
visitors. Next came Mr.. H. F.
Simrall, state organizer for the
Sovereign Camp, who gave facts
and statistics to show the great
good the order was doing in the
state in the way of furnishing
first class insurance at the very
lowest rate possible. He showed
that the order had increased very
rapidly within the past few years
until the membership in Missis-
sippi now numbered more than
%, 600 Woodmen. Mr.. Simrall's
speech was greatly enjoyed, es-
pecially by the Woodmen, who
appreciate the great work he is
doing to build up the order.

r. Bramlett was born March 19, 1885:
was married to Thomas H. Freeman
October 8th, 1850. To this union twelve
children were born, all surviving her
except one. These dates outline the life
OF the noble woman, but the many kind
deeds and mi1isyrations to those around
her cannot ae enumerated but'wiif live
in the memory of her friends long after
dates are forgotten. Hers was trlly a
beautiful christian life. She prcfessed
religion and joined the Methodist church
carly in life and continued faithful
unto the end" AS wife she was con-
stant, true and deeply devoted. AS
mother she loved and guarded her chill
dren with the intense loyalty of the
strongest and holiest maternal affec-
tions. Her many children rise up and
call her blessed" She was loved by
her neighbors and all who knew her.
She never spoke unkindly of any one
Like the contents of the broken Ala
baster box of the beloved Mary, the life
of this good wife and mother has left
fragrance to the memory of her sor-
rowing husband, children and friends
She has closed long and useful life to
go to the land of light and of love- It
seems hard that such woman should
be taken from US and yet our hearts
take comfort in knowing that hers was
the triumphant death of the righteous.
1t is no great change for her to be trans
ferred from her work here below into
the presence of her Lord and Master,
for she was ever ready to answer the
call. The end came quietly. She fell
asleep and awoke where the weary are
at'rest. The funeral services were con-
Quoted by Rev. M. D. Fly assisted by
Rev. D. nj. Geddie. The remains were
then placed in the grave in the Verona
cemetery where loving hands strewed
flowers upon the sod beneath which they
were placed. The entire community
shares the grief of the aged husband
and children and would fain offer to
them words of solace and camfort in
their sad and irreparable loss. May He,
who gave and hath taken away, bless
and comfort them. Blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord, from hence
forth, yea saith they Spirit. that they

dressed the audience and fully
sustained the reputation he has
gained as public speaker. He
dwelt upon the benevolent pur-
poses of the order and showed
that it was founded upon the
love and benevolence which ex-
lists between members of the hu-
man family; that it was promp-
ted by the desire of man to fra
ternize and foremost to provide
for those dependent upon him
for the comforts and necessaries
of life. Mr.. Mitchell's speech
was we'll received by all who had
the pleasure of hearing MIN.
After the speech making the
crowd gave evidence of hunger
and those entrusted with the du.
ty of preparing the dinner had
everything in readiness and din
ner was announced. One of the
most sumptuous repasts ever
set before crowd was spread
and enjoyed with that relish that
comes at an outdoor meal. Bar
becued meats, most deliciously
prepared, whetted the appetite
and only the dyspeptic failed to
forget all his troubles in the en-
joyment of the good things
spread before him. The abun-
dance and variety was ample ev-
idence that those who had un-
dertaken to entertain knew how
to meet every demand, and the
local camp are to be congratula
ted upon the splendid success of
their first public entertainment.

Publishers Fressl

New J orA -SJ%. lo-The announce
ment that Senator Thomas C. Plat
and his wife agreed to separate and
signed papers to that effect was no
surprise to the public, which was pre-
pared for such n denouement by num-
erous publications recently that diff
ferenccs existed between them.
In signing the separation papers
Senator and Mrs. Plat did not meet.
Mrs. Plat went to the Office of her
lawyers and Senator Platt went to
the Office of lis attorney. The nego-
tiations were conducted between the
two offices.
Mrs. Plat is at the Tioga Lodge in
Highland Mills, and Senator Plat is
staying at his apartments in this city.
So feeble is he that NO one was al
lowed to see him. Besides the formal
announcement OF the separation made
through Mrs. Platt's counsel, no mem
Der of the Platt family would make
any comment on the agreement.
That settlement was made by the
senator is the general opinion among
his friends, but what it is seems not
to be known. 1t is assumed that it
includes the property at Highland
Mills, where Mrs. Plat is making her
home.
