In MemOriam.

Entered upon the fullness of eternal
life, Monday. May 18th, 1907, Mr..
John Charles TONNES at his residence
in this place after a painful illness of
six months
Born in Arkansas sixty-nine years
ago, his father being one of the
pioneer settlers of that state.
Mr.. TONNES in his early manhood
joined the church and died a firm and
consistent believer in the holy doc
trine it i~ncaleates. At the age of 81
years, when his country needed his
services, he enlisted, at once, rs a
private, and for duty we'll done was
promoted to the rank of Lieutenant.
At the battle of Lookout Mountain
he was captured and sent to John
sons Island where he remained the
last eighteen months of the war.
In Lnflore and Carroll counties
where he has lived for ~forty-two
years, he made many strong friend
ships which have lasted throughout
the years of his life. A large Pc
cuniary interest, at one time inau-
gurated, in his home, a generous hos
pitality, that few passed without en-
joying.
A Mason of high standing, the
beautiful services of that order were
accorded his burial in the Odd Fell
lows cemetery.
In his home life Mr.. TONNES was a
kind and loving husband, gathering
from his own Preside the sweetest
pleasure of life, and now to that de-
voted, faithful wife who walked by
his side forty years. There ia a great
void in the home where stands the
chair to speak of the intense reality
Of the sad and lonely hours all her
own through days to come. With all
the sweet influences Of nature, may
his mortal part rest till the morning
of the Great Day. To his immortal
part apply the sublime words Of the
spirit incorporated in the liturgy OF
his own church. II am the Resur-
rection and the Life, he that believes
in me, though he be dead, yet shall
he liye,u H. L. r.

known as the Bankers. The
Bankers are composed of some
of the best ball players in the
city and play the game for all
there is in it, and the result of
the games were quite a surprise
to the friends of both teams.
The first game was a splendid
exhibition of the national game.
Neither side scored for three
innings when the School boys
started the fire works scoring
two runs off Johnson's pitching.
The game was closely contested
