EDUCATIONAL ITEMS
State and Local U. D. c. Chapters WIN
Give Scholarships.

The Bedford Forrest Chapter U. D.
O., at their last meeting, decided to
establish permanent scholarship at
the I. l. & G. for some deserving De-
Soto county girl, the method of se-
lecting the applicant to be hereafter
determined. Members of the chapter
will donate 500 each year for that
All applicants must be competent to
enter the freshman class. For pupils
this year Misses Mamie and Sarah
Wheeler have been selected and the
above named amount will be divided
between the two. After this year
there will probably be competitive
examinations to determine the bene-
ficiary.
The president of Bedford Forrest
Chapter earnestly urges all members
to promptly pay their dues, in order
that this increased obligation can be
successfully met.

Resolutions 'of. Respect.

Among the many boy soldiers who
responded to their country's call,
there was no Drawer spirit than Will
liam A. Raines. Almost as soon as
the tocsin of war sounded he left
school and assumed the duties of a
soldiers life, enduring without COM
plaint the privations, hardships and
sufferings which our men knew in
those terrible days, continuing faith
full to the end. Soon after joining
the army he rose by successive pro-
motions from the rank of private to
that of Captain, commanding COM
pany of General Chalmers escort.
In grateful remembrance of his
bravery, his answering fidelity to
that cause which is yet dear to us,
Be it resolved by the Bedford Forrest
Chapter, United Daughters OF the
Confederacy, That we as chapter
honor his memory as a brave and
noble soldier, and
Be it further resolved, That these
resolutions be spread upon the min
utes of the chapter, a copy of the
same sent to the family of the de-
ceased, and that they be published in
The Times Promoter.

Decrease in Taxes Compared to Last

Tax Assessor Robt. F. Coward filed
the personal tax roll for DeSoto
county for the year 1908 last Monday.
There were some disagreeable sur
prises in the new roll. One was that
the number of taxpayers on perso-
nalty have decreased since last year
and another is the falling off in taxes.
The number of persons assessed in
1907 was 5,33S; in 1908, 5,242, a differ
ence of 96. The decrease in taxes is
So, $50 from the figures of 1907.

MEMORIAL DO FARRAaur.
Tablet Unveiled by Dewey on House
in Which Naval Hero Died.


Portsmouth, N. H.-Some 5000 ship.
mates, relatives, friends and admirers
Of Admiral David Glasgow Farragut
paid a glowing tribute to the memory
of the hero of many battles of the
sea late Wednesday afternoon, when
they unveiled and dedicated a memo
rial tablet In the Portsmouth navy
yard. The commandants house at the
navy yard, where the famous fighter
died, was the scene of the exercises,
and Admiral George Dewey, who
served with Farragut, lifted the cov-
ering from the tablet. Considerable
color was lent to the exercises by the
presence of the brilliant uniforms
worn by many of those who attended.
faithful and Fearless" the tablet
read, and the guns Of the navy yard
battery belched forth the proclamation
far and wide
A canopy and pavilion had been
built to the spacious piazza OF the
house and afforded ample room for
the many visitors. The bells were
Ginning forth the hour Of 4 when
chaplain of the yard, Rev. Frank
Thompson, offered prayer
Admiral Dewey then stepped TO the
front and, with a few extemporaneous
words of address, pull back the coV-
ering. 1t read:
'Died in this house Aug IA, 1870
David Glasgow Farragut, Admiral in
the United States navy. Faithful and
Fearless"
In the corners of the tablet were
the United States seal and the anchor
Of the United States navy.
Ex-Asst. Sec. of the Navy Frank
w. Hackett was the speaker of the
afternoon. In opening his address
Mr.. Hackett referred to Farragut's
death at this place and then reviewed
briefly the relation of the Piscataqua
river to American naval history. He
said that as early as 1895 ships of
war for the service of the English
king were built on the banks of the
river, and that three-quarters of a CEN
tury later the Revolution found the To-
cality admirably suited to the work
of installing the beginnings of an
American navy. In this vicinity were
built the Ranger, later commanded by
Paul Jones, and the famous frigate
Kearsarge was also a product of the
Piscataqua yards.
There were 200 specially invited
guests, men who knew and served
with the admiral. Many oldtime resi-
dents of Portsmouth were also pres
ent. The entire force at the navy yard
arrived later. The admiral's family
and number of other relatives were
seated on the pavilion.

A Youno Heroine.

New York.-The coolnes and BRAY
cry of 17-year-old Lillian Kohnert, in
fire the other day in Third avenue
tenement where she lives, saved the
lives of many. She was awakened by
smoke and the cracking of flames,
seized her two little sisters, and ran
with them to the street. Then she
returned and helped her mother to
safety.
By this time the Railways were
choked with smoke, but Lillian dashed
back into the building, and sped up
the stairs beating on all the doors on
every floor, wakening the tenants to
their danger.
On the third floor the smoke was so
sitting and the heat so intense that
she was driven back. A policeman
came through the hall and carried
her in safety to the street.
The building was damaged $4,000.

Thirty Miners suffocated.

.McAlester, Ok.-More than 80 miners
were suffocated Wednesday morning
in Hailey-Ola coal mine No. 1, near
Haileyville, IA miles east of McAlester,
when fire destroyed the hosting shaft
and air shaft and cut off air from the
men below. Twenty-Five bodies were
removed from the mine following a
successful three hours battle with the
flames. 1t is believed that six or eight
more will be brought out. There were
rs miners suffocated and some of their
bodies were burned.
Explorations in the channels in the
afternoon revealed that none of the
men met death by burning, but that
all were suffocated. 1t is impossible
for the rescuers to get far from the
base Of the main shaft, and 1t prob
ably will be "a hours before a thor
ough search of the entire mine can
be made. Some Of the channels are
three-quarters of mile long.

from John d. Rockefeller was read at
the convention of American press
humorists recently:
Gentlemen-With The pleasant mem
cries of an official call by the Ameri-
can press humorists, sent you my
best wishes for successful conVen-
ton. The echoes at Forest Hill still

Con. Grant Guest Of Veterans.

The Weirs, N H.-Wednesday was
Grand Army day at the 32d annual en-
campment OF the New Hampshire vet
erans' association here. The weather
was threatening in the forenoon and
a slight sprinkling of rain fell, but not
sufficient to seriously interrupt the
program. There was a band concert
in the grove in the morning, and G.
A. r. department headquarters were
established in the headquarters build
ing OF the association, where the de-
partment officers received the veterans
The first of the principal events Of
the day was the arrival of Gen. Fred
eric Dent Grant, U. S. A., on the noon
train from the south. The arrival
of Gen. Grant was announced by q
salute from the battery appropriate
to his military rank
There was a camp fire in the grove
in the afternoon at which ]. w. Beals
OF, Brockton, president of the veterans
association, presided. The principal
speaker was Gen. Grant, who gave his
personal "reminiscences OF the siege OF
Vicksburg, at which he was present
as a boy of 10 years with his distin-
guished father. Gen. Grant was listen
ed to with the closest attention. At
the close of his address the great au-
dience of veterans and others arose
with one impulse ana, ignoring all at
tempts at control, pressed forward to
grasp the hand Of Gen. Grant, who
was occupied for long time in an
impromptu reception on the platform.
All attempts to resume the uncomplet-
ed program Of the camp fire had to be
suspended.
In the evening the second camp
fire on the days program was held
under the direction of the camp fire
committee. A. d. Sanborn Of Frank
lin, commander of the Il. A. r. depart
ment of New Hampshire presided.

Mrs. Gould Brings Suit.

New York.--It has been learned that
Mrs. Howard Gould has brought suit
for $4,000 against Frank A. McLaugh-
lin, a Fifth avenue tradesman, who,
she alleges, through a process sery-
er, injured her to that extent.
Failing to collect bill from Mrs.
Gould, for various articles he had
made for her, Mclaughlin began suit
to recover the amount he said was
due him. On July last the process
server attempted to serve summons
on Mrs. Gould, and in her complaint
Mrs Gould alleges that he wantonly,
maliciously and cruelty insulted her,
as a result of which she says she sus-
tanned severe nervous shocq and in
jury to the extent Of the damages
asked in her suit.
The case is likely to be heard in
October.

Comrades Unable To save Him

New York.-Fighting desperately
for life in sewer in East 81st street,
in which pentrup waters from flooded
cellars poured in a torrent, John
Lynch; a sewer department employe,
with one foot wedged beneath Gel
lar pipe, watched the swirling waters
rise swiftly to his waist, then to his
throat, and then his life was blotted
out
Two companions who had gone
with Lynch into the narrow manhole
from the street to the sewer to open
choked pipes stood on the iron ladder
leading into the pitchy darkness and
saw the man engulfed in the waters,
despite their frantic efforts to drag
him forth. They did not relinquish
their hold on the mans hands, how
ever, until he ceased to struggle
An alarm was sent to the fire de-
partment, but when the engines ar
rived to pump of the water the flood
had receded as swiftly as it rose and
the body was recovered without diff.

Augusta, Ca, Aug, 26-The floods
in the Carolinas and Georgia culmi-
mated Wednesday in the breaking Of
the big dam six miles from Augusta,
which diverts the water from the Sa-
vannah river into the canal at that
point. The great food Of water let
loose soon found Its way into the city,
and at night, from 18th street to the
eastern boundary, Augusta is under
from six to IL feet of water, which
is gradually rising.
A long distance telephone message
from the Associated Press correspond
ent at Augusta says that the city is
completely under water. In the down
town section business houses, tele-
graph offices and newspaper offices
are out of commission.
The damage to the city and imme-
diate surroundings, 1t is estimated,
will reach $500,0O0.
The union depot is under 10 feet
Of water, and in the residential dis
trict on Green street the water is six
feet deep and slowly rising. The
Sacred Heart church is in six feet of
water.
Late in the afternoon, when the AS
sociated Press succeeded in communi-
eating with Augusta by telephone, 1t
was reported that two negroes had
been drowned in Augusta, The main
streets of the city are under two feet
of water and many business houses
have been abandoned. The newspa-
pers were unable to issue their reg
ular edition. Street car service
has been abandoned.
The Georgia railway, which runs
direct to Atlanta, reports that its
trains we're unable to get nearer than
two miles of the city. Offices of the
Georgia road have been closed on ac-
count of the flood conditions.
A dispatch from Camden, s. c., re-
ports two lives lost and II persons
missing as the result of the washing
away of the steel bridge over the Wa
teree river at that place.
The Associated Press correspond
ent at Augusta succeeded in getting
a telephoneSwire to work in the build
ing next to the Augusta Herald Office,
and from there the first communlca-
tion with this city was obtained after
the wires went down.
He reported three deaths, two
white persons and one negro, but
could not give any names, as the only
means of travelling was by boat.
Thes current through the city
streets is swift, but not fast enough
to more than carry away debris, box
trees, store boxes and loose signs.
Despite the fact that citizens we're
warned that there was danger of the
dam breaking, there will be consider
able loss in business houses of all
kinds.
There were several fires reported,
but as the fires are in outlying dis
| tricts the extent of the damage can
not be learned. 1t is said the Nixon
& Danforth cotton warehouse was
destroyed by fire, together with the
Nixon wholesale grocery warehouse,
A fire was also reported in the Geor-
gia railway shops.
Despite the fact that the water
stands six feet in the residence dis
trlct of the city and Is deeper in 9th
er portions, there are no indications
that the people are suffering from be-
ing marooned In the upper stories Of
their dwellings.
