Mai ". Tillar.

In the death of Maj J T.W Til
 lar. which occurred at his home in
 Little Rock on last Friday morn ing. Arkansas lost one of its most noted business citizens as well as one of the most widely known and best liked men. Mai. TiIIar lived
 in this county for the greater part of his life. where he was well and faorably known to our people. He
 was man who ever had a kind greeting for every one he met, and while he was the wealthiest man in
 the whole State of Arkansas, he did not measure his friends and associates by money standard, but the poorest citizen, If honest and respectable, could approach him with the ease and familiarity of the millionaire. He was one man who used his great wealth to assist his fellowman, and was always ready to help the deserving. Having liv- ed in Drew County for many years and inaugurated the foundation for his business career here, he always had a home feeling for our county and people, and when d public en- terprise was put on foot which look ed to the development of Drew county's interest. Maj. Tillar could always be relied on to take a lead ing part. In his numerous busi- ness ventures he had many partners and few years ago, in conversa- tion, with us, Maj. Tillar remark ed that 1t was alwaysa consolation for him to know that he never left business partner in worse con- dition than he found him. He was a fine judge of human nature and selected as his business partners men of the highest character and approved integrity, which resulted in pleasant persona. and business relations between them.
 Maj. Tillar was 75 years of age, and was a brave ex-confederate sol dier, who served with distinguish ed valor during the war. He leav es, surviving him, a wife and six children, two of the children, Mir. T. F. Tilar and Mrs. D. c. Gar roll, still living in this county.

She was born at Monticello, Ark. dur ing the war, was early left without mother. At tender age, she nobly kept house for her father and reared her little sister. now Mrs. Bessie White, wife of: MT. Jno. White. of Monticello, Ark.
 For d time tie little family were at Hoganville, Ga, where her father engaged in the practice of medicine. While coming into womanhood, Lula spent year in Atlanta, Ga with her mothers sisters. families of refinement and culture. The many advantages of that year in Atlanta were to her source of qualification in all her subsequent life.
 While young Ia dy, her father died leaving herself and little sister to battle their way alone and make their own destiny.
 Early in life she sought her savior. He blessed her with bright conversion, ,and she was re. cieved into the church.
 MT. B. R. Packard, who at the close of the war was small boy re siding across the street from the home of pr. Ragland where Lula was then babe, took her as his bride to his Ennis, Tex. home.
 In 1904 with her husband and her little daughter, Ava, removed to Dallas. Texas. Here she passed away surrounded by friends and relatives. Her obsequies were con ducted by Dr. A. l..

Ragand and wife. of Sweetwater. Texas She lay in her gray casket encircled with choice flowers, not as one dead, but only asleep.
 Though prepared for the change and resigned to the Divine will yet she loved life, loved her family and home which she had helped to plan and beautify. and said she would be glad to remain longer to cheer and help her husband and daugh- ter.
 In Oakland Cemetery, Dallas her remains were laid to rest bN loving hands. on one of the pre tiest spots on Mapple Ave, in tta beautiful Cemetery, there to aw the Resurrection morn. P.

PRESIDENT WILL VETO
Naval Bill If Senate Provides No
Funds to Build Battleships.

WASHINGTON. April 22-President
Roosevelt will veto the naval approp-
ration bill should the Senate, as did
the House. fail to make any approp-
ration for the two battleships which
are authorized in that measure. the
prompt announcement of this fact to
Senate leaders today is regarded as
responsible for the announcement by
Hale that he should propose an amend
ment appropriating S1,0O0.O00 towards
the construction of these ships.
The President stated his position on
this point with equal emphasis and
suddenness today of learning that the
bill as passed by the House was sim
ply a Paper" provision for naval in
crease with no money to make the pro-
vision effective. Such legislation as
this. the President made known to his
numerous congressional callers, was
travesty as to effectiveness and bore
all the ear marks of Legislative leger-
demain.
That the Presidents quick and Wig
0rouS action is to be effective. is evil
denced by the action of Chairman
Hale. of the Senate naval committee
in announcing that at the proper time
he will propose the 81 100000 addition
al AS to his threat of veto, the PreSi-
dent made it plain that should the
wisdom of Congress result in the pas
sage of a bill providing for no naval
increase whatever he would have no
ground on which to veto the measure
Any attempt at what he regards as
travesty on legislation by authorizing
bat not appropriating for ships. he de-
clares he will defeat by the excise of
his constitutional power of veto.
There is not the slightest indication
that the President has ceased his fight
for four new battleships. according to
the evidence of senators who talked
with him today. Senators who are
with the President in his fight on this
proposition admit tonight that care
full survey of their strength in the
Senate gives but vote of 20 in that
body in favor of the Presidents naval
program for four ships
Significance is attached to this poll
of the Senate in that it is said to show
a loss to the President of some of his
heretofore staunchest followers in that
body. Senator Lodge is understood to
have quit the full naval program adj
VOcated by the freSldent- Inc loss Oh
the influence of the Massachusetts
senator is regarded as responsible for
the weakness shown by the poll as 1t is
believed by those who favor the pro-
gram that had the Presidents sena-
torial supporters entered the fight with
the vigor he has evidenced his efforts
in this direction might have been
realized.
