As am an old patron of the News l
thought perhaps a few lines of my
whereabouts and surroundings might
be of some interest to at least some of
the readers of the News. | came from
Petros to Lenoir City about five months
ago and located in this thriving, push
ing and beautiful little city. Lenoir
is 90 miles southwest of Knoxville, on
the main line of the Southern r. R.,
leading from Knoxville to Chattanoo-
ga. We have a population of between
four and five thousand and still grow
ing as fast as they can get houses to
live in. We have q splendid school
here, under Prof. j. H. Jarvis, with
a corps of seven teachers. We have
seven churches, all in fairly prosperous
condition, with good Sunday schools.
We have two drug stores, twenty-three
dry goods and grocery stores, fruit
stands, barber shops, meat stalls, liv-
cry stables, two furniture stores, one
large knitting mill, which works a
large force of hands. They put out a
splendid quality of hose and half hose.
Then we have o car-wheel foundry
working large crew of men, and the
Southern has large shop working five
or six hundred men. Besides the larg-
erJworks we have several smaller con-
Germs, doing prosperous business.
We have a small electric plant and
will soon have a steam laundry, so we
can get our work done at home. We
also have fair water works system,
owned and controlled by the Lenoir
City Company, and last, / am sorry to
say, we have some pool rooms and
skating Kinks, but am glad to say we
have no saloons here. Taking all things
into account we have very quiet lit

have a National bank and one weekly

1t is with sad heart that / attempt
to give brief sketch of the death of
W. d. Lewis. He was raised in Ma
rion CO., Tenn, about five miles north
east of Jasper, and was married to
Jennie HackwOrth, daughter of JAS
per and Bette Hackworth, and about
IA years ago they came to Texas and
settled in Ellis, Co, near Midlothian,
Tex. Mr.. Lewis was known as hust-
ling farmer and by the sweat of his
brow he earned his bread For the last
three years he suffered with lung
trouble, and tried several health re-
sorts to ind relief, but to no avail.
The Lord knows best. He knows those
that are His and on the 10th of Feb,
1907, He called his soul to come home
to the place that was prepared for him.
We have hope that he is now sing
ing songs of praise to his Redeemer,
for he told his family that his time
was fast drawing to close, and if 1t
was the Lord $ will he was willing and
ready to cross over to the pearly gates
and enter into the New Jerusalem and
join the angels in singing their songs
of praise. | would say to the bereaved
to weep not for your papa is not dead,
but only asleep in Jesus, awaiting the
time to come for him to be raised and
fashioned into glorious body like Je-
sus, when death has no more sting.
All will sing praises of honor and glor-
y for what the Lord has done for His
children. Then l would say to his
children, try to initiate the lessons
that your papa has taught you. Try
to keep them in mind and. the Lord
being your helper, try to meet him at
the pearly gate and join him in his
songs of praise, is the prayer of Joe
Hackworth.
1.-THE time is swiftly rolling on
When | must faint and die,
My body to the dust return,
And there forgotten lie
Let persecution rage around,
And AntiChrist appear,
My silent dust beneath the ground,
There no disturbance there.
Through heat and cold I've often went
And wandered in despair
To call poor sinners to repent
And seek a Saviour dear.
Ny brother preachers boldly speak.
And stand on lions wall,
Revive the strong, confirm the weak,
And often sinners call.
| Ny little children near my heart,
| And nature seems to bind;
1t grieves me sorely to depart
And leave you all behind.
Oh, Lord, a father to them be,
And keep them from all harm,
That they may love and worship Thee.
And dwell upon thy charm.
My loving wife, don't grieve for me,
Neither lament nor mourn,
For | shall with my Jesus be
When yoNare left alone.
How often have you looked for me,
And ofttimes seen me come,
But now | must depart from thee
And never more return,
For can never come to thee
Let not this grieve your heart,
For you will shortly come to me
! Where we shall never part. "
May this be the happy lot of all
who chance to read these lines is my
desire.
JOE HACKWORTH.

Prohibitions Headway.

The rapidity with which the prohibition
sentiment is sweeping over the country
inspires a leading New York daily news
paper 10 make the assertion that should
a good, clean. safe and sane southern
born man be nominated on a prohibition
platform next year. he would be elected
TO the Presidency OF the United States
by an overwhelming majority. Prohibl-
tion's greatest gains have been In the
South In the last decade. but the sentl-
ment is not confined TO that territory
by any means. In fact the West and
the Middle West are rapidly eradicating
the sale of liquor from their midsts, and
even the states OF the East are strongly
advocating this step. In those states
whose population is made up largely OF
n foreign element. the sale of liquor Is
productive of as much evil as II Is In the
South, where in order TO hold the negro
labor I'm check the saloon has TO be
abolished. Prohibition or high license will
be the main issues In the compaigns OF
many states In the near future and like
the wave of evangelism that has surged
over the civilized nations OF the world In
the past decade. prohibition will make
even greater headway In the near future
than II bas done In the immediate past.

Slaughter Of the In
nOcentS.

Royalty has been having the time OF
its life recently In England. where a few
weeks ago there were assembled three
Kings, FIVE Queens and no end Of Prin-
ces and Princesses. all the guests Of
England's Merry Monarch" Naturally
the men OF the royal party were treated
10 a day or two OF sport on the royal
game preserves and with much eclat the
London newspapers have duly chronicled
the bags brought down by each Of the
crowned heads.
In these reports. Alfonso. Spain's youth
full ruler, is referred TO as an ardent
sportsman and one who waxed enthusi-
astic over the shooting afforded him by
his wife's royal klnsman. The first day OF
the sport netted Alfonso 600 grouse.
This, OF course. means that the young
King stood In a blind. and an attend
ant stood by, whose duty Il was TO load
the several guns the King had at hand
and as the over-fat and lazy birds were
driven 10 the covert. Alfonso had but
to let 90 at them with both barrels and
then take another gun and repeat the per-
formance until he became tired.
That Is a crowned heads idea OF sport.
