Tribute to Mrs. Robert w. Nor.

Departed from this life at her
home near Morgana on the 10Th
inst, in the 54th year of her age,
Mrs. Annie Morgan, wife of Mr..
Robert Morgan, and daughter of
Mrs. Mary Thurmond. She leaves a
family consisting of her husband,
five daughters, Mrs. Nellie De
Almond, Misses Carrie, Rebe, Ber-
tina and Ruth Morgan, with a broth
er and sister, ]. VIM. Thurmond
and Mrs. P. B. Whatley. Some one
has said, Only speak well of the
Dead" but what a source of COM
fort it is to us to be able to speak
only we'll"
Bunyan in his beautiful allegory,
The Pilgrims Progress, tells how
Christiana when crossing the river
in obedience to the summons of the
Lord of the celestial city, was met
on the other bank by a great host
with horses and chariots to escort
her through the gates of the city;
who that knew the patient, consist
ent, Christian life of Mrs. Morgan,
will doubt that the heavenly host
were waiting there to welcome with
glad acclaim, and accompany her
into the presence of the Lord
whom she had loved and trusted,
while in the world.
Hers was beautiful life of that
modest, sensitive kind that is most
appreciated by those who know
them best. AS wife and mother she
has left the impress of her life on
the hearts and minds of her loved
ones to such extent as to enable
them to clearly understand, and
realize how "Their works do follow
those who die in the Lord" In com
pany with her father, mother, and
sister she was baptised into the
membership of Big Stevens Creek
church, August the oath, 1869.
Hers was a devout, poetic tenn
permanent that made music in the
home circle, while she would shrink
from the ruder contact of the world.

B0WERMAN Is OUT
WITH BAD INJURY
Knuckle Broken by Foul Tip
May End 1908
Career.

BOSTON. Mass, June 6.-Whatever
chance the Boston Nationals had TO
give tho leading teams in the league a
night and TO finish in the first division
seems to have disappeared with the in
jury to Frank Bowerman. the big ex-
Gia9t catcher, whose knuckle was
broken ny foul tip from steinfeldt' 8
bat in yesterdays game with the Cubs.
Bowerman had 10 retire from the
game, and his injury is such that he
will not be able 10 go behind the bat
for at least six weeks. and perhaps not
again this season. Not only was his
middle finger split clean 70 the bone,
but the fracture OF the knuckle is such
that the hand must be placed in a plas-
ter cast.
Boston fans have given Bowerman
credit for the fine showing OF the Doves
this season. he was catching his for
ueth consecutive game when he was
laid low, having officiated behind the
bat in every game played by the Bos-
ton team this season His clever ham

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, June 6.-The
uncertainties Of boxing were shown
very clearly in the bout tonight be-
tween Jim Donovan. the irish middie7
weight, and Tommy Sullivan, OF Law
renee, Mass.
There was little to choose between
the men In size or weight, but at the
start Sullivan proved the more agrees
sive and forced the fighting IN every
round and until the firth. Tommy
knocked Jim down in the first and sec
ond rounds and beat him all over the
ring in the third, Donovan seeming to
be unable to block any OF Sullivan's
blows or u get out OF the road OF
them. Again In the fourth round Dono-
van was down.
But the tide changed in the fifth. and
az Sullivan came toward Donovan. Jim
met him with a stiff right TO the jaw.
and down the Lawrence man went. He
got up quickly and was sent down again
twice more. Then as he wobbIed against
the ropes close to DonOyan's corner,
Jim hit him a crack on the jaw that
sent Tommy through the ropes, and ne
fell into the arms OF the spectators just
as the ben .ang.
Tommy yyes helped 70 HIS corner, and
after a god rest he vas brought back.
and, although weak, ae made a great
stand. and managed 20 last the round
