But would say, mourn not for our

kind and effectionate at his home,
and everywhere. He would often
talk to. hisl children and tell them
how he wanted them to live In this
worlds His talks were chiefly on
religion. About an hour before he
died he called his wife and children
to his bedside to bid them farewell.
When he had kissed them all good

/. I. S. wins

The /. 7. S. team opened the
local football season with a 90 tie
with Bethel College of Mckenzie
Saturday afternoon. The local
eleven three times fought their
way close to the Bethel goal, but
lacked the ability to get across.
The ball was in the visitors terri
tory at least two-thipds of the
game. For Bethel, Sparks played
a remarkable game, both at attack
and defense. Coston caught a
punt behind his own line and ran
it out forty yards, the longest gain
of the day.
Huntingdon's attack was some
what handicapped by the injury to
Lee in the first quarter, but Alvey
played a strong game in his place.
Cox was the most effective ground
gamer on either team. On the de-
Tense Blame starred AGREE broke
through the line and captured one
of Bethel's forward passes almost
in the thrower's hands.

M'KINNEY A CANDIDATE
VIII Make an independent Race
for Senator

Hon. j. w. Mckinney has en-
tered the race. as an independent
candidate, for state senator. He
made his first public announce
ment in Paris Monday Of last
week. He was here the latter
part Of last week and part Of this
week pressing his candidacy.
He is making the race as an in
dependent democrat and stands
upon the record he made while
senator during the stormy session
of 1909. He stands for the pres
ent statewide prohibition laws
and favors the enactment of such
laws as will insure their enforce
ment in the cities. He stands for
the present election laws as being
just and fair to all voters. He
favors a modification of the back
tax laws so as to make them just
and equitable, eliminating the graft
features of the present law.
He believes that Ex-Governor M.
R. Patterson has been a disturb
ing factor in the democratic party
ever since he entered state politics,
is largely responsible for the fac
tional differences that exist in the
party today, and therefore should
be forced from party leadership,
and will vote against him for
United States senator.
He believes in Acknowledgement
and that it should apply in cities
as we'll as rural districts.
Senator Mckinney lives in the
Twentieth district. He entered,
the first of September, upon his
second term as as member of the
county court from that district.
He is farmer and quite success
ful along business lines. As a
member Of the state senate he
stood firm by his convictions and
50 demeaned himself as to gain the
confidence Of every man who came
in touch with him.
He will make vigorous cam
paign, visiting every section of the
district possible, and will heartily
appreciate any and all support that
may be given him.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portions of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused BY an infamed condition of
the mucous lining Of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inhamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness
Caused BY catarrh) that cannot be
cured BY Halls Catarrh Cure.

John Demoss, one Of the leaders
Hof the Bethel class, was solicited
bY the writer and others, to bring
the Bethel class and entertain the
people next Sunday at Fields
school house. He kindly agreed
to do SO, but the writer, through
an unfinished article which APP
peared in last weeks paper, unin-
tentionally failed to mention the
name of Mr.. Demoss or the Bethel
class as being first to sing at said
place on said day. | ask to be
pardoned for said mistake, hoping
it will not become a haystack.

The Democrat wants to eongrat-
late the sheriff and city marshal
and their deputies for the splendid
order kept during fairweek. There
! was less drunkenness and disorder
than at any fair for several years.
They simply let those who wanted
to get drunk and make an EXPOSE
ttion Of themselves in that way
know they would not stand for it,
and few fellows undertook it
anyway and were placed in the
calaboose to sober up. This was
a warning to the rest Of the gang
and they came to the fair, re-
NAMED sober and behaved like
gentlemen. Law violators gener-
ally know when officers are de-
termined.
The Democrat failed last week
to mention the organization Of a
B. Y. P. U. at the Baptist church.
The union started off with eigh-
teen members and several were
added at its meeting Sunday night.
Mrs. G. 6. Watson is taking the
lead in the work and is ably as
sited by Leslie Black and Miss
Irene McAuley, who have had ex-
perience in the work. The organ
ization starts off with a great deal
Of interest and we hope much good
will be done.
A report came to town during
fair week that there was d dead
man in the bottom. Deputy Frank
Jolly went to investigate and he
found boy about fifteen years
old sleeping off a drunk. When
the boy was aroused from his
drunken slumber he claimed he
had had a chill. But jolly de-
tected the trouble and told the lad
to confess up, that he would not
arrest him. He admitted then
that he had been given a drink of
whisky up in town and he saw Chat
it was going to throw him and he
left town to keep from being ar
rested. This boy lived some dis
lance from Huntingdon, but said
he had been told that they ar
frested everybody that got drunk
in town. jolly told him 10 sober
up, wash his face in the creek and
come to town and he would not be
troubled.

A SUDDEN CALL
Death Of Howard w. Mc0affick a
Sad Loss to School

The death Of Prof. Howard w.
McGafick, of the /. I. S., came as
a distinct and terrible shock, not
only to his colleagues and pupils
at the school, but to the many
friends he had already made in
Huntingdon. His illness was brief.
Friday he took his bed and by
Sunday his condition was such that,
by the advice of Dr.. Cox, he was
taken to St. Thomas hospital,
Nashville. Although attended by
Drs. Woods, Oaghterson, Brush
and Buchanan, it proved impos-
sible to save him, and he died
late Monday afternoon Of paralysis
of the muscles of the throat.
Short as his work here was, it is
entirely within the bounds to say
that his success was complete, and
that no stronger and finer person
ahty has ever played part ia our
educational circles. Popular and
respected alike with students and
faculty his loss has left a gap that
is deep indeed.
His funeral will take place at his
home, Beaver, Pa. A memorial.
