ENGLAND IS PASSING
THROUGH AGE OF NOISE
Soft Low Voices Among Women
HOpeIessIy Old Fashioned

England is noisy nation and men
and women seem to imagine says the
Gentlewoman that the only way 10
eain whatever ends they may have in
view is by continuous reiteration of
their demands.
soft and low voice is no longer
considered an excellent thing in
woman, in fact IL is hopelessly old
fashioned IN these days Of strenuous
feminine politicians q voice like a
trumpet is one OF the most valuable
weapons a woman can possess.
The policy of silent contempt"
which. in gentler Victorian days, used
TO be considered so effective in crush
ing 4 rival or an enemy. is now abso-
lutelv out Of date. Abuse. abuse and
vet again abuse, is the mode Of the
moment Gas tho fashion writers say).

Neely Harris Dead.

Neely Harris has been a familiar tigure in this city and county for many years. He made his home with MT. E. l.. Horton at New Castle, and was known by nearly every inhabi- tant. He was born in Hardeman county, Tennessee, near Bolivar, and at tender age enlisted in General Forests command, serving through the war between the states.
 We have been unable to get bio- graphical sketch of his life, but We understand that he was a brave and true soldier. and no man has kept the memory of other days greener than he. He has seldom if ever missed a Confederate Veterans reunion and none enjoyed these annual gatherings of the thinning ranks more than he He Was devoted to lhe Lost Cause '' and proud of his part Ill his country $ l defense. He had no enemy except himself He Was genial, gallant and 1 polite
 He attended the late reunion at Mobile, and has since been seen in town on several occasions, never tir- i ing in relating his enjoyment of the i occasion.
 Either while enroute home from Mobile, or in little friendly en- counter with companion while ell. route home from this city recently, he had the misfortune to get a scratch upon his hand. \ Scatch to him was nothing, but his hand became very much intiamed and blood poison was the result, and though his physician did all that he could for him, it grew worse rapidly and death relieved his sutferings. He died Wednesday. We have no other particulars and art sorry, because, forgetting his inhrm ities, We should like to pay tribute tc his memory, the memory of brave and true soldier of the South.

After disturbing the peace of this globe, the comet, it is supposed, will quietly return from whence it came. wherever that is.
 The astronomers say. however, that there is absolutely no danger of the comet coming in contact with the earth. Prof. George Davidson, a rec ognized authority, has said: "The astronomer from previous obserya- tons can compute the position which gwen star will have in the heavens 50 years hence, being certain that the observer will then find the star in the telescope as indicated. That is anex- ample of the faith in law which the astronomer, the physicist and all well educated people have, consequently if there were any probability of the comet striking the earth it could be foretold by the astronomers. Let the people cast aside the voluble false prophets and believe in the law of the universe. The work of these astron- omers cannot be upset by the yagar- les ot senSationalists.

Much has been said and written about the Haley comets tail coming in contact with and destroyingsAie earth some time this month. Such nonsense has been published in many newspapers, and there are thousands of Ignorant negroes and some white persons Wua have come 10 believe that something af the kind will indeed oc- eur, and they are frightened out of their wits.

On Thursday, September LIST, at the
Gilmore home in Denison, occurred
the marriage of Edith Gilmore, Of
this city, and DR.. l. E. Huffman, of
Tucson, Arizona. The wedding was a
quiet affair, there being no one pres
ent except the immediate family and
a few personal friends. DR.. Senseney
performed the ceremony. The bride
is one Of Denison's alarming young
ladies, and while we congratulate the
Doctor in securing her, we regret the
fact that she is to be taken from us, as
their plans are to live in Arizona. A
wedding dinner was served, after
which the happy couple took the train
fer an extended tour throughout the
west, going first to Denver and later
to Salt Lake City, Seattle, Portland,
San Francisco and Los Angeles. They
do not expect to arrive in Tucson until
about the first Of October. Doctor
