Mr.. JOHN K. BROWN.

The following from the Sweetwater.
Tenn, Telephone. is account of the
death and burial of Mr.. John X.
Brown, father of w. A. Brown, sem
Tor member Of the firm of w. A.
Brown & CO., Hardware Dealers,
Whitwell.
Another has been removed from our
midst, another gone Home to his re-
ward. The Angel visited our city on
Tuesday night at ten forty O'Clock,
and lowered around the bed of one of
the Oldest citizens in the community,
Mr.. John K. Brown, and called him
to come up higher"
Mr.. Brown had been i'll for several
weeks and curing this time little hope
had been entertained for his recovery,
for bis strength had ebbed 70 low
state and his advanced age was against
him. He was in his eighty ninth
year. and had been prominent resi-
dent of this city for mere than fifty
years, having come here from Sequat-
chic Valley. Since the removal of his
son, W. A. Brown, to Pikeville some
ten years ago, Grandpa" Brown, as
he was Familiarity called, has made his
nome with his son, j. l.. Brown.
Mr.. Brown has been one of the most
prominent and wealthy citizens of the
town, and, until his advanced age pre-
vented, he mixed and mingled in the
business circles. and his advice and
counsel will be missed. He was de-
vout Christian and faithful member
of the M. E. Church, South, of this
city, and his pew was seldom vacant.
In his ''going OUT the church loses
one of her most loyal members. Mr..
Brown is survived by the following
children: W. A. Brown, Mrs. Ida
Ross, Pikeville, Jno. L. Brown, of
this city, and some twelve or four
teen grandchildren and nine great
grand children.
The funeral services will be held
this Thursday afternoon at the M.
E. Church, and will be conducted by
Rev. Brown and Rev. l. p. Murphey,
Of Knoxville.

JAS. F. DOSS

Last week bv an unfortunate error
we got James f. Doss labeled in the
democratic column as a candidate for
sheriff, when it should have been
republican joining the glad throng of
republican candidates that goes
marching along for the Office of nigh
sheriff of Marion county. Our error
came about in this way. About two
weeks before Mr.. Doss quit the en-
ploy of the N, G. g. st. L. R'y, a
News reporter came upon crowd,
citizens of this place, railroad men,
etc, who were discussing Mr. Doss 8
proposed candidacy, and the popular
verdict was that he would be a hard
candidate to beat, and that he would
make mighty good sheriff, as he was
"big and stout enough to lug the Grim
inals in. = Looking over the crowd
the News man sized it up as demo-
cratic crowd, and hence concluded
from his favorable mention that Mr..
Doss was also democrat Mr. Doss
visited this place last week, but failed
to come around and see the News, and
hence when we came to give him a
paragraph the idea of democrat still
remained If Mr.. Doss is SO well men
toned by democrats, what will happen
to his real democratic" opponent
when the election comes off We can
only conjecture. MIR. Doss, however,
should take warning from this, and be
awful friendly hereafter with newspa-
per men.
A fri end at Jasper writes us, call
ing our attention to the error, and
says, 81 have known Jim F. Doss ever
since he was ten nor twelve years old,
and have always known him to be a
staunch republican.
This week Mr.. Doss has large dis
play announcement to the voters, to
which we call the attention of our
many readers. We hope we have made
amends for the error and that Jas. F.
Doss, or capt Doss'', as many pre-
fer to call him, has not been harmed
in his race by the blunder.

1910. Before we close the year we

POSSIBLE LOCATIONS.

County Court meets at Jasper Mon
day The principal theme of discus
siou is, will it order a High School to
be located in Marion CountyY This is
an important subject that will be dis
cussed. The committee on High
School, of six members, will be cleo
ted by tie court, one from each School
District, and to this committee the
propositions being formulated by the
different places trying for the location
will be submitted. Jasper is very fav-
orably mentioned as being the County
seat, and we understand a strong eff
fort is being made to get it located in
the Pryor Institute building, one that
is very suitable for the purpose and
built of brick and stone. South Pitts
burg has large number of Jealous
citizens, who will have nice propos-
ition to make to the committee. We
are not aware of any proposition being
made from Sequachee, 1t being impos
sible to get united action in the mat
ter sufficient to make strong induce
ment The popular opinion now il
that Jasper will win easily, as straw'
show which way the wind is blowing.

NEW YORK, April 26.--J. d. Gold
man, president of the large spot cotton
firm Of Lesser, Goldman & Co., Of st.
Louis, who is now In this city says
that he can see nothing but prosperity
ahead for the new season. This coun-
try west of Cleveland has never been
in better condition, and Mr.. Gold
man says that he has never known a
time when there was more money in
the great agricultural sections of the
country, South and West. Conditions
abroad, according to his advices, are
gradually improving, and, while he
looks for no sudden boom, he expects
a general business, and for the en-

From this it will be seen that the
service which the battleship Missis,
sippi will possess will compare most
favorably with those to be found on
any vessel in the American navy.
Not only is the Mississippi to receive
a silver service, but there will be pre-
scented to her officers two handsome
silver candelabras by the Daughters
of the American Revolution in Mis-
sissippi. The service will be accepted
on behalf of the officers of the Mis-
sissippi by Captain John c. Fremont.
Comment has been made that it will
be the son and namesake of the
first candidate for president of the
republican party who will accept the
present of the state of Mississippi on
behalf of the battleship.
Silver services are not the only
highly priced gifts to be found aboard
ships of the American navy. The
boasts of a clock pre-
scented to it by the city Of Philadel-
pha, that cost $4,000. A pair of
steers horns given to the Texas is
regarded as particularly appropriate
aboard that warship. Several of the

nese government, to that ship as al

zone Touch OF Nature Makes the
Whole World Kim"

When rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farmyard
to come and share it. A similar trait
when a man discovers something ex-
ceptionally good-he wants all his
friends and neighbors to share the
benefits of his discovery. This is
the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication,
that others similarly ailing may also
use it and obtafn relief. Behind every
one of these lie tiers is warm-hearted
wish Of the Y riter to be of use to
someone else. This remedy is for
sale by Hays g Field and Yellow Pine
Pharmacy.
