Illness Of Brief Duration.
Funeral Saturday

Mr.. Samuel Julian McClary
died at his country home about
six miles southwest of Columbus
on the Robertson road at $3.50
O'Clock Friday afternoon. His
death was rather sudden and un-
expected, having followed an ill
ness of only a few days dura-
ton. He was seized with a con-
gressive chill Wednesday, and
after a short period of suffering
expired.
Mr.. McClary was the son of
the late S. F. McClary, who
died only a few weeks ago, and
was the fifth member of the
family who has been called by
death during the past two years.
He was twenty-four years of age
and was a young man of most ex-
emplary character. He is sur
vived by a sister, Mrs. Steger,
an uncle, Mr.. D. r. McClary,
and other further removed rela-
tives.
The funeral occurred at the
residence Of Mr.. d. r. McClary,
corner Main and Third streets,
at three o'clock Saturday after.
noon, having been conducted by
DR.. H. G. Henderson, pastor Of
the Erst Methodist church.

SEASON At THE COLUMBUS
THEATRE WILL OPEN LATE
Mr.. Newly Not Ready to Make
Announcement Concerning
Inaugural Attraction

While places of AMUSEMENT
throughout the country are rapid
ly throwning open their doors
for the new season, no definite
date has as yet been fixed for the
Inauguration of the new season
at the Columbus Theatre, and
Manager James Newly. Jr.,
states that it will probably be a
month before the opening oc-
ours.
Mr.. Newly did not take charge
of the house until August 1st,
on which date the lease Of DR..
Sharp. who managed the house
last season expired, and as most
of the booking is done during the
spring and early summer he
found it rather difficult to secure
attractions. However, he is do
ing his best, and hopes to book
some good shows at an early
date.
The moving picture shows haze
materially damage the bus
mess of the regular theatres in
all parts of the country, and
have hurt them to even a greater
extent in the small towns than
in the cities. For this reason
the managers of theatres in
small towns are badly handi-
capped, as travelling managers
are thoroughly familiar with the
situation, and are afraid to face
the opposition which the mo
vies" furnish.

GOOD WORK OF WOMEN.

Although women have only been
admitted to the school boards Of
Wurttemberg for the last two years,
and the women teachers have only
exercised the school suffrage for the
same length Of time, they have al
ready improved the school conditions
of that kingdom very considerably.
1t was through their efforts that spe-
cial housekeeping schools we're
opened for girls, while the raising OF
the school age and the compulsory
attendance at the evening schools till
the age of eighteen years was reached
may also be accredited to their pres
ence on the board.

KILLED BY ENGLISH SPARROW.

One of the most peculiar deaths
ever chronicled occurred recently in
Huron, West Virginia. A prosper
GUS farmer, who owned and operated
q farm of III acres near that place,
was the victim and two fighting Eng
lish sparrows were the unusual cause
Of his death. The man was sitting,
asleep, in large old-fashioned hick-
ory rocking chair on the front porch
Of his house with his head tilted
back. Suddenly the sparraws, which
had been fighting in midair, swoop-
cd violently across the, porch and
either beak or talon Of one caught
In the flesh Of the sleeping mans
neck, tearing a large, jagged wound
and cutting the jugular vein. BY
the time the unfortunate mans wife
came to the porch from the kitchen
her husband lay unconscious on the
floor. Efforts to check the flow Of
blood we're futile.
