The remains Of Miss Carrie X. Barry,
accompanied by the parents and family
and company Of sorrowing friends,
reached this city on the northbound
noon train over the M. & o. r. r.

prayer by Rev. Gillian, Of Memphis, al

Wednesday, the 10th inst, at the home

sudden and unexpected but inexpress-
IDLY sad to the gref-stricken family and
the hosts of friends in Jackson The
absence Of Mrs. Barry, who was at the
timevisiting Long Beach, CAL, in search
of health, rendered the misfortune inn
measurably great. A message was has
tened to Long Beach, and a return wire
that she would leave at once moved the
friends to postpone burial until the
mother reached Jackson. Monday ey
ening Mrs, Barry arrived in Jackson
and on the following morning the re-
mains were shipped to Union City for
interment.
The party reached here and were
joined by numbers of relatives and a
throng of friends. Interment took place
at East View Cemetery, accompanied
with beautiful floral tributes.

TUBERCULOSIS WAR
A Million Women United to Fight
Consumption in Every State.

What women)have done in the last
four years in the campaign against tu-
berculosis is discussed in an interesting
report issued to-day by the National
Association for the Study and Preven-
ton of tuberculosis.
-Four years ago the only active women
workers in the anti-tuberculosis move
ment were little group of about thirty
women's clubs To-day 100000 wo-
men under the Health Department Of
the General Federation of Women S
Clubs in every State and territory of the
United States. are banded together
against this disease, and more than
1000 clubs are taking special interest
in the crusade. Not less than $500, 900
is raised annually by them for tubercu-
losis work, besides millions that are Sc
cured through their efforts in State and
municipal appropriations. Mrs Rufus
?. Williams is the chairman of the de-
partment that directs this work.
In addition to the work of the Gener-
al Federation of Women's Clubs, the
Public Health Education Committee of
the American Medical Association, com
posed largely of women physicians, has
carried on an educational campaign OF
lectures during the past year in which
thousands have been reached. The
Mothers Congress, the Young Women's |
Christian Association, and many unat- |
tached clubs bring the number OF wo-
men united in the tuberculosis war to
well over a million. There is not a
State in the union where some work has
not been done.
Through the activity of women, SAN
atoria and hospitals for the treatment of
have been erected travel
ing libraries have been circulated; pos
ters, circulars and other kinds of Iitera-
ture have been distributed to the num-
Der of millions OF pieces; thousands of
lectures have been given; large sums Of
money have been secured; hundreds of
needy cases have been helped; tubercu
osis work has been started in many
where no movement had
existed; and millions of women have
earned the dangers and methods Of pre-
yention of tuberculosis.

Negro Killed.

0bion, Tenn, Aug 13.-The body
of a negro man was found by the crew
on a northbound freight train on Thurs
day morning, the body being on the
side of the Illinois Central railroad,
about one mile south Of here. Mayor
Wilson and the city physician went
down to investigate the body and found
the negro had been dead several days,
the body being in an advanced state of
decomposition. Two bullet holes were
found in the forehead and temple.
The body was in very peculiar posi-
ton, the head resting on the ground
and the body, with the feet upwards,
was leaning against wire fence. The
body has been almost under water,
which probably accounts for it not be-
ing discovered sooner. The clothing
was searched, but nothing was found to
lead to the Identification of the negro.
He had no money or anything Of value.
All that was on him at the time of the
discovery was some matches and keys
which looked like store keys. There is
no clue as to how he came to be there,
except that he was foully shot and
thrown from a moving train. The
people are very much disturbed about
the mystery Of his death. The remains
were taken in charge by the city and
buried in the negro cemetery here.

FRENCH OFFICERS REVENGE
NobIeman for Cool and MortI-
tying Reception.

A French officer who had spirit and
good birth, but little wealth. had
served the Venetian republic for some
years with great valor and fidelity,
but had not been acknowledged with
promotion as he had merited One
day he waited on a nobleman whom
he had often asked for advancement
in vain. but In whose friendship he
had some reliance. The reception he
met with was cool and mortifying; the
nobleman turned his back upon the
old soldier and left him to find his
way to the street through q suite Of
beautifully furnished rooms. He
passed them, lost in thought until he
saw a valuable collection Of cut glass
on a damask-covered sideboard ready
for a banquet. Turning to his COM
panion, a faithful English mastif. he
said, absent-mindedly:
Here, my poor old friend, you see
how these naughty tyrants indulge
themselves. and yet how are we
treated"
The dog looked at his masters face,
and gave tokens that he understood
him. The veteran walked on, but the
mastiff slackened his pace, and, laying
hold OF the damask cloth with his
teeth, with one hearty pull brought
all the glass on the sideboard In shiv.
ers to the floor.

,PHOTOGRAPHING ON APPLES
How Pictures or Words Are Printed
by Nature on the Growing
Fruit.

Occasionally much interest is
aroused by the appearance in a fruit
store Of few apples on which appear
perfect photographs, not pasted on
but apparently in the skin of the fruit
itself
Though interesting, the method Of
making picture apples is simple and
not at all difficult If the fruit is of .
red variety. Just before the apple be-
gins to turn a Photographic film is
fastened about It in such a manner
that 1t will not move and blur the pic
ture. The foliage is then removed 30
that the apple is exposed to the direct
rays of the sun and nature does the
printing. The prints are clear. sharp
and perfect in every way, except that
depth Of tone Ia lacking. II it is de-
sired to brand a name or words on the
fruit black paper should be used in
stead Of the film, the desired letters
being cut out.
Probably some clever advertiser will
take advantage Of this method some
day, and we may be handed an apple
on which is attractively etched some
thing like IT I Give You Pains Take

FIRES THAT ARE SLEEPING
Range Of Eight Great Volcanoes Near
Lake Albert Edward In Central
Africa.

II IL not very generally known that
right In the heart of Africa at the
southern end OF Lake Albert Edward
n a great range Of volcanoes. They
are eight In number. and, though 1t is
true that, unlike Rukenzor. they carry
no permanent snow, the highest peak
is over fourteen thousand feet In
height These volcanoes are particu-
larly interesting on account of their
comparative neweness. Running
through the middle Of Africa there Is
a trench many hundred miles long.
in which lie the great lakes Albert
Edward, Kivu and Tansanyika.
Not very many thousands Of years
ago. the volcanoes, generally called
Mfumbiro, burst through the middle
Of this trench and made a dam across
It, with the result that some Of the
water. which formerly flowed into
Lake Albert Edward and SO into the
Nile, was cut of and a lake was
formed behind the dam. AS times
went on the waters of the lake which
is now called Kivu rose higher and
higher, until. not being able to flow
over the barrier of the volcanoes,
they formed the Rusisi river, which
runs the other way into Tanganyika,
about 100 miles distant. OF the eight
volcanoes only two show signs Of ac-
tivjty at the present time, in the form
of thin wisps of steam which may oc-
casionally be seen; but a vast plain
of lava, with wide black stream curl
ing through its midst, showed where
formidable eruption had taken
place only two or three years before
our visit. There are hot springs scat
tered here and there. and we felt
slight shocks Of earthquakes once or
twice, SO It is not safe to say that
the Mfumbiro volcanoes are extinct

A Smile Counts.

Every one likes to see q smiling
face, and to smile becomingly one
must cultivate cheerful and sympa-
thetic condition of mind. The face
wreathed In smiles is like perpetual
sunshine in house. II is irresistible,
and conquers all hearts.
A smiling mouth loses half its
charm II the eyes do not correspond; /;
for the eyes are the windows Of the
soul, and the smile that He's only
about the lips soon dies away, leaving
an Indifferent spirit to survey and
chill the world
Cultivate the art of smiling, not
with your lips, but with your eyes.
Every one can have laughing eyes.
They are not q matter Of inheritance.
nor can they be acquired with the aid
Of the masseuse and the professional
beauty specialist
Love is the great transformer. The
ste-nest features may be softened, the
hardest natures be humanixed, By
love.
