A SAD DEATH.

One of the sadest deaths that has oc-
Cured in Columbia for long time was
that of Glen Rounds, the 16 year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. L. L. Rounds, on
Monday afternoon at 4:3O. Just merg-
ing into manhood, with the innocence
of boyish glee, giving way to the real
ization of broader view of life, he
looked forward to mature years with
fond hopes but almost without warning
he was taken to his eternal home.
On last Saturday he was complaining
slightly but was able to be out. On
Sunday he took his bed about the noon
hour and at 4:3O Monday he passed
away. Double pneumonia doing its
work within that slort time.
Funeral services were held at the
residence on Tuesday at 1870 by Rev.
A. R. Kasey, his pastor, and the body
laid to rest in the city cemetery. The
pail bearers were boys near his age
who loved him and were loved by him,
and impressed those who witnessed that
solemn procession of the uncertainty of
life, the swiftness of death and the
tender affections of his associates.
Glen was boy who impressed older
ones as model, and his playmates as a
companion whose living was worthy of
imitation. His death has produced ex-
IRENE grief with his parents, brothers
and sister who have the sympathy Of
this entire community.

FAMINE STRICKEN SUFFERERS OF
CHINA.

At the Columbia Ministerial Asscia-
ton Tuesday, March 10Th inst, by a
unanimous vote, it was resolved to hold
union service at the Methodist Church
Sunday, March 3Ist, at o'clock in
behalf of the famine stricken suffers
of China.
Rev. z. T. Williams, President of the
Association will open the service by an
address followed by the rest as the resi-
dent pators.
An offering will be received for the
famine and it is hoped that each fami-
ly in our beloved city will be ready to
respond literally to this most needy and
worthy cause.
The latest reports show that the
famine is still spreading, that the re-
gion more or less affected covers from
40, 900 to $4,000 square miles.
Within this radius there are 80 wall
ed cities and market towns. The peo-
pie actually needing help now number
about II, 600, 600.
The conditions are so distressing that
everything available is being sold for
food.
Farm animals are being sold at great
sacrifice. The extremity of the dis
tress is seen in fact that children are
actually being offered and sold. In
some instances they are peddled along
the streets.
1t will require about $4 90 to keep
alive one person until the harvest is
ripe.
Brethren and citizens of Columbia,
we who have plenty and to spare, shall
we not at this time respond literally to
our needy Brother. There are families
in this city who are able to give 500,
and never realize that they have given.
How we would all be delighted if our
contribution to this cause would be at
least S., 100000 from the city of Column
bia J. F. CLAYCOMB,
Sec, of Association.

PEACHES SAFE, 50 FAR.

Some time ago we made the state
ment that peaches and pears were kill
ed, but it now develops that we were
incorrect. There is a light bloom on
some trees, plenty on others and on
many none. This spotted condition is
due to variety and position of the trees.
Nearly all the early varieties are show
Ing up without bloom and many late
kinds are nearly bare especially where
the trees had but little protection from
the north winds. The best we can hope
for is light crop.

A GOOD MAN GONE.
Mr.. Robert Montgomery, OF Ozark,
Died Last Thursday Morning
at 1915 O'clock.

The subject of this sketch died at his
home near Ozark, Thursday morning,
March 21st, at 1915 o'clock, death due
to an attck of lagrippe.
The deceased was in his seventy third
year, a devoted member of Shiloh
Christian church and citizen respect
ed by all.
He was man of generous impulses
and never forgot the hospitable ways
of the pioneer The stranger, even
though begger. never failed to find
food and shelter if he sought it at his
hands, and he was at home by the bed
side Of the sick and delighted in all
kinds of neighborly offices. He had
filled the various relations of life, as
son, husband, father, brother, friend,
and filled them well. Who can do
more?
BY request his remains were inferred
near Shiloh church, which he loved so
well and served faithfully, the services
being conducted by Ed z. T. Williams,
witnessed by large crowd gathered to
pay their last respects to one whom
they honored.
The deceased is survived by the wild
ow, three daughters and three sons.
"We saw not the lift of the curtain,
Nor heard the invisible door,
As they passed where life's problems
uncertain
Will follow and vex no more
We fingered and wept on the threshold,
The threshold each mortal must cross
Then we laid a new wreath down upon
it,
To mark new sorrow and loss"

WARM MARCH.

Windy March gave this country the
warmest embrace ever known at this
season of the year. For the last few
days the temperature has been equal
to the closing hours of lovely May.
The pastures are holding the stock
from regular feed and the little boys
and girls are finding great pleasure in
barefoOted romps. All nature seems
to be taking On new life and showing
signs of gladness and praise for the
lifting Of the chilly winds, SHOWS and
sleets so prevalent in the first Spring
month.

entertainment
AT Charlottesville Last Saturday
Evening by Misses Meek and
PenIand.

In the days that have passed, | have
attended great many good entertain
ments in Columbia, but l do not believe
there has ever been more delightful,
or interesting one held in the Southern
portion of the State, than the recital
given by Misses Penland and Meek at
Campbellsville, on last night.
I Every number was as near perfect
as could be, and the rendition of each
and every part was something extraor-
binary according to the views of the
writer. want to pay compliment to
Miss Penland, to which she is justly en-
titled. AS musician. she has no equal
in Southern Kentucky. Her voice is a
perfect melody, with the soft and beau
tiful tenures of music, which bring out
a harmony that is beyond comprehen-
sion except to those who hear her.
When music is considered in all its diff
ficult points, Miss Penland will come
up to higher standard as a teacher,
than most or them, according to the
way she acquitted herself last Saturday
night at Campbellsville. 1t is an un-
contradicted fact that when the Lind
say-Wilson school at Columbia selected
Miss Penland as a music teacher, they
made the wisest choice in the history
of that fast thriving institution of
learning.
Now then, Miss Meek, who had a
prominent part in the entertainment,
is one of the best teachers of express
ion that I have ever had the pleasure
of listening to. She seems at such
perfect ease in the rendition of her
part of the program, that it is heav-
emily inspiration to the admirers of ex-
preston in its most exalted and perfect
manner The combination of music
and elocution in recital is one of the
most sublime entertainments that Ell
Their a man or woman ever witnessed,
and if any occasion was ever more
highly enjoyed than the one mentioned
herein, it has escaped the notice of the
writer, as well as whole lot Of ether
people in Columbia.
The whole affair was one that de-
serves much credit from the citizenship
of Columbia and Adair county, and the
young ladies connected with the enter
tainment are our best and most talent
ed girls.
Miss Daut Marcum, the Editor of the
Spectator, was in attendance, and her
presence upon the occasion, seemed to
have an inspiring effect upon the bal
ance of the troupe. Miss Marcum is
the only young lady editor of a news
paper in the State of Kentucky, and
the grand old Commonwealth should be
proud of having one of its most beauti-
full girls as member of the "Pencil
Pushers" in the State. Miss Marcum
is unquestionably efficient for the edit
orship of any paper. She is educated,
and her intellectual powers are equal to
any young lady in Southern Kentucky.
