lassie from the country, arrayed in
their best, will come in on the
highways and byways with eager
Joy and anticipation,
The fine big special train of Sun
Brothers is due here before dawn
on September 26, and the usual
army OF curious will no doubt be
atthe railroad yards to greet them.
AS tented showmen are known as
hustlers, it wont take them long TO
unload the enormous equipment,
horses, elephants and animals and
assemble them at the show grounds
near the railroad.
Performances will be given, in
the afternoon at 2 o'clock and at
night at s O'Clock. There are no
conventional numbers in the bio
imperial programme that will be
offered. Because the hundred of
men, women and children perform
ers are masters in their varied
feats and accomplishments and
bring refinement and diversion to
their work. Besides the human
superiority of this seasons exhibit
tion, there is unique and Won
derful trained animal display. The
Sun Troupe of acting and musical
elephants, educated monkeys and
dogs, cleverly trained ponies, a CO.
terie of blue ribboned cake walking
horses; these are all classy features
Of the huge programme.
En the wild beast and geologic
department are many cages and
dens containing a rare and valua-
BILE collection of wild animals.
Everything of worth in this field
will be seen and exhibited.
All of the tents are OF modern
build and at night time they are
brilliantly illuminated. The show
comes highly recommended for it's
absolute cleanliness and entire
freedom from fakirs, gamblers and
ticket scalpers.. In fact, the only
way that you can spend your mon
ey around the show is through
legitimate channels. From the
looks of things Tuesday, Septem-
Der 26, will be one of the biggest
show daysin the HISTORIC of Camden.

Mrs. Anna Keyes.

On Tuesday night Mrs. Anna
Keyes passed away after a lin
gering illness. About two years
ago her health began to fail anc
during the intervening time her
condition has given grave appre-
lhension to her family and friends.
The end came peacefully, and
with the exception of one son,
DR.. C. T. Keyes, who is in Tex
as, all the members of the falh
lily were present when the final
summons came.
Mrs. Keyes wa the wife o.
Capt. w. H. Keyes, to When
she had been married for more
than fifty years. The following
children survive: J. w. Keyes.

Point; DR.. C, T. Keyes, Tupelo;
Mrs. D. S. Ballard, Mrs. E. F.
Ballard, Mrs. Geo. Thompson.
Mrs. Foster Hudson, Tupelo. and
Mrs. Wiley Francis, Nettleton.
The deceased was for many
years a member of the Baptist
church and her life measured
fully up to the christion stan
dard. In works of charity, she
entered with a spirit of sym
pathy and love and it was with
lavish hand that she bestowed
her benefactions upon the needy
and afflicted. AS a wife and
mother she shone brightest, and
the home circle, over which she
presided with matronly grace,
was as happy one as could be
found anywhere. There was a
full measure of love and de-
votion and each member shared
the joys that overtlowed their
lives.
a few wears ago Capt. and
Mrs. Keyes celebrated their
golden wedding and the many
evidences of love and apprecia
ton on that occasion told in
unmistakable terms the warm
place held in the hearts of a
host of friends.
The funeral services were
held from the residence Wednes-
day afternoon, conducted by
Rev. A. j Preston. who spoke in
forceful terms of the noble life
that had been laid down.
Lovely floral designs were
brought by friends and laid upon
