creaked open at five minutes before
midnight unless It was kept locked.

upon the cupboard and scared a whole
housebald

Obituary.

~ Died, Sunday night, April A,
1909, at the home of her father,
James Skeen, at darlington,
Oharlenia May, aged eight years,
three months and twenty-three
days, of lung trouble. Oharlenia
was bright little girl but God
claims such to make up His jew.
els. 1t seemed hard to part from
her but Gods ways are always
right and it was He who took her
from us and we must be recon-
ciled to his will. She leaves a
father, step.mOther and foster
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. M.
Thompson, and a host of rela-
tives and friends to weep for
her, but l would say, weep not,
for Charlie is not dead. She has
just entered perfect life to live
throughout the ceaseless ages of
eternity, for God says In his Holy
Word a thousand years is as but
one day with Him. Think of
Charlie as a bright little angel
in the arms of Jesus, singing
praises around the great white
throne with all the redeemed Of
God. Charlie has gone from us,
but, blessed be the name of the
Lord, He has opened up the way
that we can all go to her. There
fore, let us all prepare to go and
live with Charlie in her bright
new home. There will be no
weak lungs there, no scorching
fevers, no sad farewells, but all
is JOY and peace. She was laid
to rest in the Brown graveyard
beside her mother who departed
this life when Charlie was an in.

is located in Western Kentucky
will hold its annual encampment

condition, the companies all
standing well and the encamp.
ment will be a successful one.
No sites have been secured

Second Regiments although the

NIGHT RIDER
VICTIM WINS
Two Negroes Awarded SOS. 600
Damages Each in Federal
Court.
OTHER CASES ARE COMPROMISED

Paducah, KY, April. No de.
Tense was offered IN Federal
Court today to the suits of Lee
Baker and Nat Frizzell, negroes,
for damages on account of the
Birmingham night rider raid,
and they were awarded the full
amount, $25, 900 each. They were
driven out of Birmingham by
the raiders March 8, 1908, after
being whipped until, according
to the testimony of DR.. Robert
OVERLY, the lash cut into the
muscles of their legs. In his
charge Judge Evans said the only
evidence of shame for the deed
manifested by the defendants
was their failure to appear and
deny the charge. He told the
jurors it was their duty to bring
a verdict not alone sufficient to
cover the damages to any amount
not exceeding $25, 900. He added
that he would be surprised and
chagrined if verdicts for flimsy
amounts were returned.

COURT HOUSE CAPTURED
BY SCHOOL CHILDREN.
They Play Drop the Handkerchief and
Other Games While They Wait.

jacksonville, April l9.-With-
in the history of Hopkins county
the court house has been cap
tured twice. Once during the
War of the Rebellion Gen. Lyon
captured it and burned it. But
probably the most unique sight
ever witnessed in a court house
was at jacksonville last Satur-
day when an army of children
from Darlington "romped their
route" through the lobby and
the corridors of the Hopkins
county court house.
The occasion was that an Earl
ington school teacher had been
accused and brought into court
for the alleged offense of ex-
tremely furnishing pupil, and
it seemed that the entire school
had been summoned as witnesses.
Many citizens of Darlington and
friends of the school came here
and spent the day at the court
house. While waiting down.
stairs upon the slow grind of the
wheels of the gods of the court
upstairs they grew tired and rest
less, and the innate disposition
of childhood began to develop
itself. They were soon engaged |
in the same games which they |
enjoy on the campus of their
school at home during the hours
Of recess.
They were a bunch of bright
little boys and girls, ranging in
years from about six TO about
fifteen, and for the time the
court house was their own. Not
llone did they enjoy the sport,
put judges, sheriffs, clerks, law
'ers, newspaper men and many
,thers gathered about them to
witness the games. 1t brought
he sweet memory of happy
childhood back to the oldest
Ieart, and for the time drove
he cares of the world away. In

bad boil could not play as much as
ne usually does very willingly. so
Mr.. McFetridge pleased his guests
with some of his own playing. De-
iightful refreshments were served at
1880 o'clock, which were partaken
'of heartily. Mr.. and Mrs. McFet-
ridge entertained charmingly.
The ones who enjoyed these young
folks hospitality were glad that It
was not until approaching dawn that
the dance broke up. when they de.
parted for their various homes.
Mr.. Fred McFetridge is remodeling
his house and building new barn,
and It has been reported that he is
thinking of entering into the state
OF welded bliss.
