Gov. Glenn Lectures.

Ex- Gov. Glenn of North Caro-
lima, delivered an address at the
First Presbyterian church last
Tuesday night on home missions.
The church was well filled.
Gov. Glenn is speaker of un-
usual power and his subject was
presented in an attractive and
luminous way.
Principally he dwelt upon con-
ditions in the mountainous sec
tions in his own state, which up
to dozen years ago were so i'll
provided with schools and church
es. With the establishment of
these sources of light, vice, igno-
rance and murder, formely so
prevalent, have notably dimin-
ished, but the need is still press
ing for much more work along
this line. The congested dis
tricts of the cities are no less a
field calling for missionary work.
Gov. Glenn illustrated his argu-
ment for home missions by tell
ing of numerous concrete cases
and conditions more or less COM
mon in the South.
He represents the Home Mis-
sion Board of the Southern Pres
byterian church and was the
guest while here of the Rev. ].
J. Hill. Gov. Glenn's lecture
tour takes in many of the princi-
pie cities of the South.

Fun Reings Supreme.
Attrsetiveness of Circus Program Due
Largely to Clowns.

Sixty of the worlds best and
merrist clowns are largely respon-
sible for the attractiveness of his
years program of the Barnum and
Bailey Greatest Show on Earth.
There is not a moment during the
three hours the doors are open
that the audience is not laughing
at some droll stunt of funny an
tic of the great army of come
dians.
In the ranks of the Barnum and
Bailey clowns have originated all
the best clown acts that people
all over the world have laughed
at for the past fifty-four years.
As usual, they have this season
an entireley new array of anus
ing skits, pantoinimes, burlesques
and trevesties. The arena swans
with merry fellows, each on the
alert for mischief. They are the
delight of the children, and
grown-ups who cannot laugh had
better see a doctor.
From Europe has come an es-
pecially comical band of fun max
ers, whose original aud fantastic
make-ups and quaint drolly are
not to be resisted byman or child.
A burlesque Arctic expedition, the
funny airship scene and a gro
tesque liJntaming speciality are
received with shouts of merri-
ment.

COTTON REBOUNDS
To HIGH LEVELS
FROM DECLINE OF LAST WEEK MARKET
RECEIVERS IN SHORT 0RDER-NEAR
SEASONS RECORD,
SIS A BALE is THE GAIN

With sudden about face the
cotton market has bounded back
to the high level. Yesterday s ad-
vance put prices rs points above
the lowest Of the day before and
only 25 points below the season s
record, thus showing a gain this
week of So a bale. Saturday saw
the market heavy as a result of
drastic unloading of the leaders,
it is said, and breaking through
the marginal limit of smaller
leaders. The quick rebound is
taken as indicating that the big
buyers only sold in order to buy
back cheaper and to argue more
for still higher prices
for the staple. Spot cotton in
Columbus yesterday brought
14.50.

LAURENTS GET $4,000;
SMITH SUIT COMPROMISED
DAMAGES FOR KILLING E. A. LAURENT AT ARTESIA REDUCED
FROM S5O, 600, SUM ASKED IN SUIT.

BY the payment yesterday OF
$4,000 damages to Mrs. Kate
Laurent, G. r. Smith, who is now
serving a life sentence in the state
penitentary for killing her son,
+. A. Laurent, at Artesia last
January, has paid on the civil side,
and is now paying on the other
all possible debt to the law in full.
The $4,000 damages for the
death of +. A. Laurent was not
the award of the courts. The
settlement yesterday was a COM
promise of a. $4,000. damage suit,
filed here in the circuit court
shortly after the Smith-Laurent
trial in February last, and set for
hearing in the January term of
court, a continuance having been
granted from the Superintendent
by agreement Of council
Mr.. K. T. McConnico, of Nash
vile, leading counsel for the prose-
cution in the murder trial,
who, with the local firm of Bets
& Sturdivant, represented Kate
Laurent ct ais in the damage suit,
arrived in Columbus Tuesday.
Gov. j. T. Harrison and Col. VIM.
Baldwin, were the legal represen-
tatives Of the defendant in the
civil case. After consultations the
attorneys yesterday at noon
agreed upon a compromise, and
the money was paid over.
+. A. Laurent was travelling
salesman for the Simmons Hard
ware Co. His home was in Nash
vile. 1t was alleged in the suit
that he was the bread-winner for
his mother and sister at the time
of his death.
If the matter had not been set
tied yesterday, it is understood
that it had been determined by
the plaintiff to dismiss the suit
filed here in the circuit court, and
institute proceedings in the Fed
eral court at Jackson and Mr.. Nc
Connico had prepared a declara-
tion to that end
The settlement of the case, it
is said, is regarded with satisfac-
ton by both sides.
For the defense it means that
Miss Estelle Smith will be saved
from again telling her sad story;
innocent though she was, of her
fathers insane belief in her guilt,
and of his murder of an innocent
man.

was taken, leaving to his bOyish
care his mother and sister.
Truly and tenderly he met this
responsibility, ever forgetful of
self. he sought only the comfort
and happiness of these loved
ones.
One whose nature is attuned to
the call of duty does not hesitate
when a summons comes. Though
in the first flush of manhood,
with all its promises, when his
country was driven to arms in
the defense of its principles Mr..
Campbell promptly joined the
Confederate army remaining in
service until the end of the con-
fict. Gentle and kindly by ma
ture no braver man ever faced a
foe. 1t is told of MIN that having
wounded and captured a Federal
soldier he afterwards, with the
tenderness of a woman, nursed
him back to health. Until the
gray-haired veterans of Isham
Harrison Camp have one by one
crossed the bar, they will doubt
less cherish the memory of this
comrade who was faithful alike
in war and in peace.
After the clouds had rolled
away and the South had settled
down to a measure of quietude,
Mr.. Campbell formed business
in Memphis and
His integrity and
conscientiousness in the dischasge
of his obligations secured for
him the confidence and esteem
of all with whom he dealt. In
the heighth of his prosperity,
when the future beckoned on to
rich fruition, he was Frustrated
by long and severe illness that
CHI nged allihis plans.
During his convalescence he
came to Columbus, the loved
home of his earlier years, and
when his health was established
he again engaged in business in
which he continued until within
a few months of his death.
For almost his entire life Mr..
was a consistent and
loyal member of the Presbyterian
church, filling the various Offices !
to which he was appointed with |
unswerving fidelity. Open hand
ed and generous he cheerfully |
responded to every appeal of re-
ligion and benevolence, often de-
nying himself lest some should |
suffer whom he might help.
In mature life he married Miss
Alvia Campbell to whom he had |
for a long period given his warm
est affections. Theirs was a
perfect union. Lovingly they |
shared each others joys and sor-
rows, entering into and fulfilling |
each others plans, neither think
ing of self, sbut each striving to
make the other happy.
When the Death Angel claimed |
the wife he loved so we'll life
lost all its charm, he whose eye
had still the brightness of youth, |
whose hair was unfiecked by the |
touch of time became in a day, as
