Deaf of Miss Nettie Witten.

Miss Nettie Witten, eldest and only
remaining daughter of Col. Thos. G..
Witten, died at the home of heI
father on west Main street on last
Friday afternoon, after long and
painful suffering.
The funeral service was conducted
at the residence Saturday afternoon,
by Rev. Mr.. Sydnor, Rector of the
Episcopal church, OF which she was
"a member, assisted by Rev. Mr..
Hall, pastor of the Presbyterian

interment was in the new Cemetery.
BESIDES an aged father, one brother,

There are many relatives, near and
remote in this County who survive to
mourn her death. Her only sister.

be recalled, leaving IA young son,
whom, with MI. w. Il. Witten,
her brother and the father, the only
surviving members of this family, all
of whom, the father particularly,
have sympathy Of the community.
Deceased was born and reared in
this community, and was therefore,
well known. She was beloved and
appreciated by a large circle OF
friends. She was quiet, gentle
woman, of intelligence, and devot-
ed christian life. She had been a
great suffer yet withaI cheesul
on the street, greeting her friends
and acquaintances always with
smile and manner in which there
was no trace of the pain and an
guish she suffered-no fear TO die.
Through successive years of suffer
ing, instead of complaining and re-
belIing, as might have been expected
and certainly eXcusabe, she was
calm, cheerful and bright. Death
came quietly and mercifully bore
the gentle spirit beyond the reach ol
pain, disease and dreaded death.

SHAMOKIN LUMBER COMPANY Will
START Big MILLS IN REAR TOWN
Large Timber Tract Purchased Two Years VIII BE Put in Opera
ton AS Soon AS Arrangements Can be Made-Two Out
lets For the Lumber Under Consideration.

Mr.. NJ. L. Barry, representing the
Shamokin Lumber and Manufacture
ing Company, has been I'm the COM
munity several days, on business for
the Company. MIR. Barrys visit was
significant. 1t will be recalled that
the Shamokin Company purchased,
two years ago 400 acres OF fine bal
sam timber land in what is known
as Bear Town, in this County, and
the marketing of this timber is now
determined upon by ihe Company.
MIR. Barry was here To confer with
Mr.. Warner, off the Quigley Furni-
ture Company, whose lumber plant
is situated with I'm few miles of
this tract. The are two plans be-
ing considered by the Shamokin
Compny-one, To put mill in
Bear Town, cut the lumber, and
transport IL across Rich Mountain,
thence To the railroad ut Burke's
Garden Switch. This plan, which
is entirely feasible, was considered
two years ago. The Company would
be able To utilize To old roadway
built and used by Jno. B. Adams,
some years ago, and IL would be easy
To provide transportation from the
foot OF the mountain on their side of
either 10y teams or II railway. The
other plan, and the one MIR. Barry
took up with Mr.. Warner this week,
is To have the QuigIey Furniture
Company manufacture this lumber,
and deliver il To the railroad at Salt
willie. This plan, too, seems entirely
feasible. The Quigley Furniture Com
pany has tracks ready laid within
three miles of this Shamolxin tract,
down Poor Valley To Broad Ford.
Thence To the plant of the Gypsum
people is only about one and half
miles road To build To coneccL with
line direct To Saltvillc. This plan or
the other, IA tram road across Rich
mountain, will certainly be put into
operation in the near future. The
adoption of either of these plans will
result In good To the people of this
community.
Mr.. Barry and Mr.. Warner will
each lay these plans before their re-
spectiNe companies, and some decision
Will be reached In the near future.
Mr. Barry left ON yesterday for mid
die tennessee, where his company
has large coal and timber interests.
lie has been here on former oc
casion and made friends of all
whom he met.

1--WE Have With Us"

Tazewell may be a little shy on
spring chickens, but she is flush on
good water, JUICY ham, golden butter
and rich milk, buckwheat cakes and
molasses, preserves, cake, jellies ct
cetera, and these things are good
enough surely for even Presbyterian
preachers or any other kind of prea-
chers, particularly when, on the side,
will be good cheer, good welcome,
beautiful scenery, bracing and plen-
etous ozone of the hills.
It may confidently be stated, too,
that the gentlemen and ladies here
will recognize and appreciate these
things, for they know good things
when they see them--and taste them.
And so, both host and guest are lux
uriating this week. The best we can
bestow is small return for the good
we should receive in the sojourn of
these consecrated men in our town
and our homes.
