On the 10th day of September,
1907, James I. McFarling died
at his home four miles southeast
of Verona, after an illness of
many years.
Mr.. McFarling was stricken
with paralysis about thirteen
years ago, and during all these
years he has been a hopeless in
valid, deprived of the faculty
of speech, lying upon his couch
without the power of even NOV
ing around the roona Mr.. Nc
Farling retained at all times a
cheerful spirit and manifested a
keen interest in all matters relat-
ing to business, to his family and
to the public. He kept posted
through the papers that were
read to him by his family on
public questions and expressed a
keen delight in the success of his
friend, his party and the general
improvement of the country.
Enlisting as a private in Compa-
ny | of the 26th Mississippi Reg
linen of Infantry, under Capt.
M. P. Burton and Col. w. N.
1nge, in 1861, he served with
honor and valor during the four
years of the war. Although ex-
empt from service by reason of
a physical disability, he diguised
his disability in order that he
might go and fight for his coun-
try. His comrades testify to his
answering constancy in fulfill
ing all the duties of a true SOL

without means. he took up the du-
ties of private citizen and rails
ed large and honorable family.
In his affiictlon he manifested
the fortitude of a Spartan and a
christian, and no word of COM

all times he was the resipient of
every loving attention from each
of his family, and in re-
turn he exhibited every affec.
tionate regard.
The interment took place at
Old Union Cemetery, near his
home, where the entire cemmu-
nifty assembled to pay their last
tribute of respect to their depart

In Memoraim

The death angel came into the home
of Mr.. w. S. P. Rose last Thursday,
Oct. 10. 1907 and plucked for himself the
choicest flower of the garden. Little
Murriel Lovane, aged sixteen months,
was found drowned in a tub of water
that was accidentally left near the
house.
She was missing only a few minutes
when the search was made but she was
beyond human aid when found Every
means of restoration was used but of no
avail.
Her beautiful clay model was laid
away IN the Plantersville cemetery Fri
day morning.
Little Murriel had just reached that
age when most interesting. Her
baby prattle filled the home with sun-
shine and love.
The Little form and voice will be
missed more than any one can tell ex-
cept those who have "passed that way, 4"
but we know that God is all-wise and
knoweth best for US.
Jesus stood with outstretched arms to
receive her spirit for he has said "Snf-
fer little children to come unto me for
of such is the kindom of heaven"
Grieye not for the bereaved ones, God
lent YOU his flower for short while but
sees best to take it while yet in bud be-
fore its white spotless petals b ecome
blackened with sin.
Death came into the world one day
And scanned the passing throng.
Some with sigh upon their lips,
And others with song.
81 will be merciful," he said,
''1n choosing mine today.
Since at the Lords command take, /"
One soul from earth away.
The poor, the sick the aged, the weak,
He slowly passed them by,
"a little longer | will wait,
So soon they too must die"
Until at last he found face,
Most sweet and passing fair,
With sunshine laughing in her eyes,
And shining on her hair.
Her. soul knew not of vicious crime,
Nor ought of craven fears,
Nor had she quaffed from sorrows
' cup.
Nor wasted fruitless tears,
Her mind was full of tender hopes,
Her eyes''with love afame-
And not care upon her face,
Had let fretful line,
81 will not leave the child" said
Death,
Until the sordid years,
Have shown thy heart life bitterness,
And brought thine eyes to tears,
So STOPPING low he left kiss,
Upon her forehead white,
And smiling sweetly in his arms,
She passed from human sight,
And people spoke of cruel death,
And wept in sad despair,
Because the Angel of the Lord,
Had left his footprints here,
Old age, and sorrow, sickness, tears,
She lelt, them all behind,
But we who wept beside her grave,
Knew not that death was kind.

THE FOOTE & DAVIES co.
OF Atlanta, Awarded Contract
for Lee County for Record
Books.
(Aberdeen Weekly.)

The Board of Supervisors of Lee
county, at the October meeting, awar-
ded the contract for furnishing the
county record to the Foote & Davies
Co.. of Atlanta, Ca, who are repre-
sented in Mississippi by E. L. Sykes,
Esq, of Aberdeen, Miss. The contract
was awarded in competition. with Mar
shall & Bruce and other blank book
manufacturers, and is to be accepted
as an endorsement of the prices ard
quality of goods offered by this firm.
Atlanta offers many advantages COM
mercially to the business men of Mssis-
sippi. Conveniently located, its wares
and goods can be distributed through
out Mississippi with more dispatch than
other cities bidding for trade. It's man.
ufacturing interests represents all that
is progressive in the rebuilding of
city laid waste by Sherman's vandals;
while the integrity of its business men
is known and recognized throughout all
business centers of the Old and New
World.
One of our Atlanta exchanges in
speaking of the industries of that grow
ing city, has this complimentary men,
tion of the Foote & Davies Company:
Commencing business in the summer
of 1891, IN the back rooms of an old
building on Broad street, now long
since razed to make room to make room
for magnificent modern buildings and
the most approved machinery and appli.
ances, the history of the Foote & Da-
vies Company is story of phenomenal
growth and multiplied successes that is
hardly rivaled by that of the city itself,
and certainly not paralleIled by any like
enterprise south of the Ohio river.
Zone does not have to go very far
into the business methods of this COM
pany to perceive the reason for this
pre-eminence. 1t is really yvery simple.
The motto of the company, The Best in
Printing and the Allied Arts, is an ex-
preston Of it's artistic ideals and when
you add to this the theory that what IS
best for it's patrons ieterests is best
for it. and its insistence on absolute
honesty in every relation, you have all
that makes the difference.
1.-THE plant is owned and controlled
by the men who operate it and give all
their time and energy to its success.
They have a clearly defined theory, and
the ability and courage to force that
theory into practice. Each department
has at its head a kindred spirit who
stamp its product with the infallible
technique of master hand.
in addition to Printing, Lithograph-
ing, engraving and all that The Best
in Printing and the allied Arts imply a

mand for labor-saving systems of ac-

of carbon paper to massive roll top
desk, sectional bookcase or a case of
steel furniture, all of the best grade"

DEMONsTRATIyE GREETING
Is Accordeded Theodore Roose.
velt Upon His Arrival at the
City Of the Bluff.

Vicksburg, Miss, Oct. 21.-
Alighting from his special train
at Delta, La, his silk hat in one
hand and graciously shaking
hands with the committee with
his right, President Roosevelt
resembled more a man who had
returned home to be greeted by
dear old friends than one from
whom might have been drawn
the mental picture of the presi-
dent of the United States. The
Just as the president descended
from the platform of his special
car he was grasped by the hand
by Mr.. F. M. Harding, of Vicks-
burg, of the committee on recep-
ton, and next in rapid order was
a greeting from Hon. John Sharp
Williams.
The committee crowded about
the president, who was led down
through the beautiful white sand
on the landing of the Delta Point
and on to the stage of the Belle
of the Bends. AS he boarded
the steamer a roar Of cheers, ap-
plause and cries of ''Hurrah for
Teddy" Welcome to the presi-
dent - Long live the presi-
dent!" and many others were
heard as the chief executive
wended his way escorted through
the crowd with officers and the
committee about him.
The steamboat parade was one
continuous ovation from the
steam whistles, firing of cannons
brass bands. thousands cheer
ing the nations chief as he land
ed, and such a demonstration as
it was Vicksburg has never be-
fore seen. Ten thousand people
lined up at the landing and along
the route of march to Washing
ton street, where. beginning
with the route of the parade and
lasting throughout the route
thousands of voices cheered for
the honored guest, and no words
can describe it more than to say
it was just one continuous living
mass of enthusiastic humanity
crowding for the best vantage
ground and eager in the desire to
get a better view of the presi-
dent. On board the Belle Of the
Bends Captain F. D. Nowland,
Jr., OF Memphis, and Commo-
dore Gus Nimtz were assisted by
Hon. Joe Hirsch and Hon. 7. R.
Foster, who acted we'll their
parts as hosts for the day so far
as the presidents part of the
great river parade was concern
ed. The committee on board the
steamer that met the president
at Delta was composed of Hon.

JAILED AFTER ACQU|TTAl
Hard Luck of Washington Murderer
Who Made Use of the In
sanity Dodge.

Washington, March 1s.-The supreme
court of the United States today re-
versed the decision of the United States
circuit court for the western district of
Washington in the case of Sheriff
Urqhart of Lewis county, Washington,
vs. Thomas Brown. Brown was tried
in the local court on the charge of
murder, but was acquitted on the plea
of insanity. He Immediately afterward,
and without inquiry, was jailed on the
order of the court. He appealed the
case to the state supreme court, and
when he failed to secure relief took his
case to the United States circuit court
which granted him q writ of habeas
corpus on the ground that he was en-
titled to a hearing, and in the absence
of such proceedings his second commit
ment had been without due process of
law and in violation of the federal con-
stitution.
After that decision the sheriff brought
the case to the supreme court. The
opinion was by Justice Harlan, who
said that the case was not one warrant
ing interference by the federal circuit
court.

MAY GET JUVENILE COURT
Conference Committees Are Attempt
ing to Reconcile Differences
Between House and Senate,

Six conferees. three representing the
senate and three the house. are cudgeI-
ing their brains to devise a Juvenile court
law that will be satisfactory all around.
If such thing be possible. Juvenile court
legislation Travelled a tOrtuous road yes
terday. In the first place, the house sDe
cial committee on Juvenile courts brought
in new bill. No. 500, which embraced
some of the provisions of house bills 1s9
and Isl, and senate bill No. 81 There was
a defect in the construction of the meas
ure and it went over for the time but
was made a special order on call OF the
speaker The understanding was that it
was to be taken up at o'clock. but as
there is no such thing as o'clock in the
legislature the hour was left to the speak
er's judgment.
During the afternoon it developed that
the house and senate were weI-nigh hope
lessly apart on the juvenile court Ques-
bracing house bill. insisted that his meas
ure should in the main prevail and the
senate insisting with equal Obstinacy that
No 81 should have the preference
The difficulty was finally settled by the
appointment of a conference committee
by the speaker, consisting of Messrs
Thompson, jackson and Mills. and an in
vitation was extended to the senate to do
likewise. The belief is that out of the
disorder will come juvenile court bill
that will meet all reasonable require
ments. The rock upon which the split
occurred is the manner of choosing
Judge. whether by appointment or cleo
ton. the power of removal and other
questions of similar character. The con-
