ed by him for his appearance before Judge

From Personal Experience.

Ff0m the BOhtmiAn.
Uncle Eli felt he knew the metropolis
pretty well. Had he not been there three
times in four years-and twice he had rid
den on the elevated. So when he brought
Aunt Susan with him Ton the fourth trip
he naturally assumed the role OF guide.
She marveled at everything until they sat
down for luncheon. They had gone into the
Astor House for that meal. BIT. all It's other
marvels seemed lost on the visiting country
hostess as she looked open-eyed at the
crowds that filled not only the corridors
but the restaurants. Scarcely had they
found seats when this amazement took def
mite shape.
"EH.'' said she In a STACEY whisper, II
can't set here an eat peaceaby. I jes'
must go downstairs an help pore Missus
Aston with the cookin' an" dishes"

Mrs. Carrie Beulah Burns.

Again our community is overshad-
owed with sorrow, sadness fills our
hearts; there is vacancy in our
midst none can replace, 3 void none
can fill another one of earth's sweet
est flowers has been transplanted to
the garden Of heavenly Paradise.
On July the Goth after loving hands
of husband and friends had done all
that mortals are able to do the sweet
spirit of Mrs. Carrie Beulah Burns
took its flight from this world
care to enjoy the happiness of her
Savior's smiling face.
She was born near Polkville, Smith
county, Mississippi, on Nov. 26, 1876
On October "a, 1894, she united in
marriage to J. B. Burns, Of Burns,
Mississippi, and has since that time
lived at Burns. Early in her life
she united with the Presbyterian
church and became conscientious
Christian and devoted Sunday

under her influence without truly
realizing that she was q heavenly
saint living among us.
She leaves q husband, six children
and host of friends and relatives to
mourn her loss. But our loss is
heavens gain. While we are unable
to understand why the poverty of this
earth should be impoverished that the
wealth Of heaven should be enriched,
yet we realize that is the work of the
master, who doeth all things we'll,
and we humbly bow to his will be-
lieving that on some sweet day his
purpose will be more clearly revealed
to us.
Miss Benlah's'' voice will cheer
us no more, her kindness can never
again smooth life's pathway for her
friends, but the influence she leaves
behind her will live forever.

Elder made fast to her dock in this city at o'clock tonight Hours before the big steamer touched her dock thousands of people had gathered to welcome the fortunate survivors of the catastrophe and rel atives and friends went to prove by sight and touch the safety of their loved ones. And there were those there who were impelled by final hope that by some miracle father wife, son or a brother might have been overlooked in the preparation of the roster of the saved.
 When the big boat made fast a great a cheer arose and by what seemed mu- tual consent the crowds divided, form ing in line on either side of a narrow lane through which the survivors walk ed as they left the vessel. They were seized as fast as they were recognized and some of them were hugged and kissed.
