Obituary..

Died, Nov. 3, 1907, at her home
in Shady Grove, KY, Mrs. Jane
Hubbard, Of paralysis, in her S0th
year. Thus ended the life Of one OF
the Oldest and best known women in
that part Of the county. The writer
has been personally and intimately
acquainted with her for more than
thirty years. She professed faith in
Christ in early life and united with
the Baptist church, in which she re-
manned q consistent member until
her death. In her younger life she
was a regular attendant st all church
services, but IN latter years she was
one Of the Lords "shut.in ones" BY
reason Of her great affection. She
speut her last days alone In her own
home. She was Baptist from
principle, but not a bigot. her con-
victions Of doctrine and duty were
deep but not extravagant. Her
faith in her Savior was beautiful and
steadfast. Her hope of heaven was
all based on what Christ had done
for her, and no glory was taken to
herself.
A good mother and a kind neigh
Dor is no more. She will be missed
by her children and friends but by
none more than by Mittie. who new
er tired of ministering to mothers
needs Her Affections were many
and painful, yet she bore them with
patience and fortitude, and at last
like tired child going to sleep, she
sank into the arms of death, sur
rounded by her friends and children.
Mon lay Nov. 18th, friends tenderly
bore her remains to the Shady Grove
cemetery, there laid her to rest till
the coming of our Lord. Peace to
her ashes. Rest for her soul. And
love to her memory. And may God 5
grace and spirit heal the sorrowing,
bleeding heaats of the deceased.

XMAS TREES WON'T

COMPARATIVE AMOUNT SMALL
Christmas Tree Cut for One Family
In Every -Four.

The national forests this year sup
piled four million Christmas trees,
the forestry service estimating that
one out of every four families OBJ
served the tree custom at Yuletide.
Clifford Pinchot, United States for
ester, upholds the Christmas tree
custom and believes it should be
maintained.
1.-The number of trees cut this
year" he said, "is insignificant when
compared to the consumption for
other purposes for which timber is
demanded. This clearing of an area
equal to a good sized farm should
not be the subject of much worry
when 1t is remembered that for lum-
ber alone it is necessary to take tim
Der from an area of more than 10O,-
900 acres every day Of the year. II
true that there has been serious dam
age to forest growth in the cutting
of Christmas trees in the various
sections of the country, particularly
in the Adirondacks and parts of New
England, the damage in cuttin :
young evergreens for use at Christ
mas is inf1nitesmal when compared
with the loss of forest resources
through fires and careless methods
of numbering"
In this country the foresters pre-
dict that the Christmas tree bust
neess will become a recognized in
dustry and that as much attention
will be given it as is now devoted t
growing of crops of timber for othe
purposes. 1t is stated that only con
servation of timber which remain
and a carefully planned system Q
reforestation will meet the deman
for 10000, 100000 feet of lumbe
and the millions of little trees use
each year.

not used for any particular purpose
It was stated that the ranks OF the
old comrades are thinning out and
the expense OF renting the armory 's
quite a burden to the few who are

ONLY ONE PLAIN DRUNK.
George Miller Gets Religion, Gets

Sick and Gets . Doctor.
One drunk at the police station
this morning. Mr.. Vanderfoot has
obtained an enviable reputation in
the raising of large pumpkins and
squash, but as the weather is little
out OF season for those products. and
in order to keep his hand in. he
started out last evening to raise a
little cain. He had made but little
progress when he fell in with Abel--
the six-foot-tour copper-who gath
tered up the pumpkin man and car
risd him to the police station. b.
The city physician was called to
the station to attend George Miller
yesterday. After the effort of the
Salvation Army. George said he felt
fine spiritually. but the absence of
Jamaica ginger made him feel like
he had half dozen stomachs with
a furnace in each one. From the
smell that came from the basement
it was evident that all six furnaces
were smoking. The medicine had
soothing effect and George wanted
it repeated every five minutes instead
of every hour, as per the prescrip
ton
At noon he was taken to the coun-
ty court and tried on the charge of
contributing to juvenile delinquency.
This charge was brought against him
on account OF the turkey deal. The
two boys whom he paid csc each
to help him catch the turkey we're in
court and testified to receiving the
money. Miller put up an awful harj
luck story and for about half-hour
forgot that he was sick. He said that
he bought two of those turkeys from
a fellow whom he didn't know, and
the reason ne gave for putting the
national bird to bed was to prevent
it from flying through the window.
no it was mighty powerful bird.
He could not explain, however, why
he did not disclose the turkey when
he men were looking for 1t, until
they finally found it themselves. His
story would not hold water and the
Judge gave him 500 and costs.
which means three months at the
Hotel Florance.
