Death of MIR. Walter Watson.

Mr.. Walter A. Watson died at his
home in Axtell, Warren county, Mon
day morning. The end came some
what suddenly although it was not
unexpected. A victim ofheart trouble
he and his family and friends realized
that the summons might come at any
moment, and he was fully prepared
to answer it. Nevertheless his death,
in the prime of manhood, brings a
sense of shock and feeling of sad
ness to the hearts of those who knew
and loved him. Walter Watson was
a good man and useful citizen and in
his death the community in which he
lived has sustained great loss. He
was friend and neighbor to all who
knew him, and in his character and
conduct, honest, upright, manly-a
Christian gentleman. Deceased was
a son of the late Thomas B. Watson,
and beside a devoted wife, daughter
of Mr.. Walter Allen, and three chill
dren he leaves two brothers and
one sister, together with a large num-
Der of other relatives and friends to
mourn his death.

Presented in Henderson April I6.

"The Land of Nod" which is one of
the biggest hits in musical extrava-
ganzas ever sent this way, noted for
its costly scenic effects and gorgeous
costumes, is booked for an appear
ance at the Grand Theatre Saturday
night, April 10th. The Asheville Citi-
zen of the 9TH says this of the pro-
duction in that city:
Tuneful, mirthful and replete with
novel features, Samuel Rork's mu-
steal extravaganza, 1.-The Land OF
Nod" pleased two large audiences at
the Auditorium yesterday afternoon
and last night. '1he
Land of Nod" can boast OF several
clever principals and unusually good
looking chorus. A noticeable feature
in connection with the latter was the
fact that the costumes were OF a gor-
geous order and surprisingly new.
Mr.. Neil Mcneil, as "The April Fool"
proved himself to be a very clever
comedian. Of stunning figure and
possessing a good voice, was Miss
Bessilee Merrill, the "Jack of Hearts. u
Taken all round, "The Land oil
Nod" was an enjoyable show and was
we'll worth the money"
