DAY AT
 HOME ADDITION

While not so large d crowd as was anticipated was present at the auction sale of lots in Home Addition, all those present had a most enjoyable occasion, and the thrifty ones secured some excellent bargains. This was the last day when people could buy lots in this beautiful addition at their own price, and the increase in value of this place will fill with regret many who yesterday might have laid the foundation for competency.
 The barbecue was a marked sue cess, and every one who partook of it spoke in highest praise of it's ex- cellence.

 The afternoon closed with the best balloon ascension ever witnessed in Pine Bluff.

A TRIBUTE TO
 JACOB GINGRICH

Lakeside church is sad in the loss by death of one of her noblest and most efficient members. Jacob Cling rich Bro. Gingrich was born in OK ford county, Canada, February 16, 1S49. In 1868 he went to South Bend, Ind. where he lived until eight years ago, when he moved to Arkansas He was converted to God in February. 1869, and joined the German Evangel- ical church. in which he lived for seven years, when he united with the Methodist church and served God in it until the day of his death August %. 1907 Within this compass of 5S years, there is crowded a splendid life, for he was loving and faithful husband devoted father, and Metho- dism has never had a more faithful and earnest member. He served his church in every rank open to lay man, and did it we'll and efficiently. He was pre- eminently the pastors friend and brother; he prayed for and
 
 did not criticise his pastor. In his public prayers he always prayed for his pastor by name; and this pastor feels a great sense of loss. His devot- ed wife moans his loss, not as one who has no hope, for she has a vital and conscious hold upon God; and his three children who are living, Bros. Harvey, Ivoe and Sister V. o. Buck rise up to call him blessed, and are following him in fidelity to the church and love to God. We buried him from Lakeside church Sunday afternoon
 where large crowd gathered to pay tribute to one we loved and honored and drop a tear of sympathy for the loved ones.
 Surely as in the words of Holy Writ, "He has come to the grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn com
 eth in his season." Blessings upon his memory, and love and sympathy for his bereaved ones left to follow on. Their friend and pastor,

NEW POSTMASTER
 FOR NEW YORK

New York Sept. 3.-Edward M. Morgan, former acting postmaster, is now the chief of the New York post office, his appointment by President Roosevelt becoming effective today. His selection is highly popular among the citizens and commercial inter- ests, because of his long experience and the assurance of a thorough bus mess mana cement of the office. Mr. Morgan succeeds William R. Wilcox, who resigned to accept a place on the new state public utilities commits sion
 MT. Morgan is the first postmaster of New York who has risen in the service from the rank of letter car rier. He is tfty-one years of age, and entered the postal service in 1873, serving under Postmasters James, Pierson, Van Cott, Bacon and Wilcox. His rise is typified by floral ladder presented to MT. Morgan by his fel- low clerks when he was appointed a chief clerk in 1889. With each pro- motion a rung was added, each repre- senting a rise in the ranks. The ninth rung has now been placed at the top of the ladder, representing these grades from which the new postmas- ter has climbed-carrier, watchman, clerk, chief clerk, superintendent of stations l., E and D, superintendent of city delivery and assistant post

 Mir.
