Death of ]. C. Turner.

John G. Turner was born in
Paynesville, Pike County, Mo-,
June Z, 1841 being sixty-seven
years and five months old. He
was married in 1864 to Miss Eliza
Shortridge of Macon, Mo. To
this union were born five children,
Emma ", Mary, Charles and
Elizabeth of this City and George
S., deceased. The wife and moth
er departed this life in 1888. The
deceased united with the Metho-
dist church of this City about
eighteen years ago and he found
his greatest consolation and joy
in this faith and it was ever his
constant regret that he had not
given his heart to God in earlier
life. When in good health, he
was constantly in attendance at
the services of the church and
gave of his limited means to sup
port the gospel at home and
abroad. His conversion was
bright and happy. It was during
an evening service that he went
+ onward and gave the pastor his
hand for membership; but it was
not until after he went home that
God fully forgave him his sins
and filed his heart with unspeak-
able Joy.
He had been i'll several months
with a complication of diseases,
but now he has gone to join those
dear ones whom"he had long since
loved, but lost awhile"
While he had suffered greatly
yet his demise was peaceful ;
coming at about ten minutes to
five Sunday afternoon, Nov. Is,
1908.
The bereaved ones, who have
ad ministered to his necessities in
his old age and his last illness
will miss him greatly around the
home that he loved so well. His
life and faith haev taught them
ssnot to sorrow as those without
hope" Funeral services were
held at the homo Monday after-
noon at 8 O'Clock, conducted by
Rev. H. d. Thompson. The re.
mains were taken to Macon, Mo
and laid to rest beside his vile
Tuesday.

Speaking OF the loot ball game
1T Columbia last Saturday between
the Missouri University Tigers
and the Washington University
team OF st. Louis.
Missouri's attack was az varied
as it was effective. However the
gains that eventually netted touch-
downs, were confined TO the ends
and the consist mt and long GAINS
OF the forward passing o. the
Tigers aggregation, an innova-
ton in MissouTi's offensive tactics
that even elected admiration from
the followers Of the Missouri team.
With this advantage of more
than thirty pounds to the man in
tae line, Missouri's plunging backs
were unable t. make Roadway
against the stone-wall line of
Washington, Seldom was it
that gains were made on bucks
or massed plays against the line.
Missouri found Washington's
weakness early in the gasne-the
inability of the ends to stop the
plays aroupd-and they hammered
the wing men until they were
forced to leave the game.
With Full Back Wilder and
Right Half Alexander who, with
Left End Driver, were easily the
stars of the winning aggregation,
circling the ends for long and con-
sistent gains. Washington was
early thrown on the defensive.
These tactics interspersed with q
frequent and- effective use OF the
forward pass, gave Missouri a
long early lead, which spelt utter
rout for the Pike way team"
The Score stood 40 tn o in favor
of the NJ. U. team.
Among those from this city who
witnessed the game were Misc
Alma Nuns, Miss Nellie Graves,
Miss Dora Taylor, Mrs. j. F.
Graves, David Graves, Jr. and D.
" Care.
