Mrs. w. L. White gave report of
her visit to Martin to the Medal Con-

In Memory of w. M. Ferguson.

William Moore Ferguson was born
near Russellyille, KY, July 10, 1862;
moved with his widowed mother, three
sisters and TO VII brothers to Obion Coun-
ty in 1872 and had made his home here
since. His death occurred June 10, 1912.
He was married in young manhood to
Miss Mollie Ford, of Dyer County, a
niece of the late Mrs. w. L. Odom.
There were five children born of this
union, three sons and two daughters,
Zelma, the eldest dying in babyhood
Those surviving are Miner, Jim, Law
renee and Annie, who was the apple of
her fathers eye and who never tired in
her ministrations during her father s
long feebleness. His health had been
failing for several years, and all that
most devoted wife, loving children and
kind friends could do was done, but ap-
parently to no avail. His work was

train home. The only thing worth
doing, is doing good, and permit to say
of all organizations known among men
and women, none are doing more good,
(the Church always excepted) than the
great organization you representative
Woman's Christian Temperance Union.
Among its many lines of usefulness, it
has been a. powerful factor for good,
and | am not exaggerating or indulg-
ing in mere compliment, when say
the w. G. 7. U. has been directly re-
sponsible for more good legislation in
the various States, than any other or
ganization-social purity laws, laws
against narcotics, temperance enact
ments, laws in the interest of children,
curfew laws, and laws along all lines of
social and civic uplift. In my own
strenuous official life, | could not al
ways count on the outspoken support
Of many men who should have been
on my side, but l could always count
on the members of the Woman s
Christian Temperance Union. God
bless the w. c. T. U. and make it a
still greater hand-maiden of His.
Sincerely
E. w. HoCH. !"
The above letter was greatly enjoyed
by the Union; each mentally resolved
to be worthy the praise. The next
meeting will be July 10, at the New
Church Chapel at p. m. A full at

done, his spirit returned to the God
who gave it.
He was a quiet, unassuming man, a
deep thinker, not emotional, but true
as steel to his attachments, loving
husband and father, true friend and
neighbor, always ready to give of his
time or means to any who were in need
He was not member of any church
but gave repeated evidence during his
last few days that he was ready when
God called. But oh what sadness his
going has caused in his home and among
his loved ones. May they all live so
they may, when the time comes to go,
join him in that home not made with
hands eternal in the heavens, where
there is no sickness or death and where
all tears are wiped away.

Death of Miss Virginia Penick.

Miss Virginia, daughter of Mrs. D.
E. Penick, this city, died on Friday,
July u, 1912, at 11:90 O'Clock, after a
few days illness from miningitis.
The little girl was ten years of age,
slight of figure, but clothed with the
beauties of mind and heart. She was a
member of the Methodist Church and
a regular attendant at Sunday, school,
bright as a gem and fair as flower.
She came into the world bringing sun
shine and beauty; she was the idol of
the household. Tender and sweet and
fragile, the blight of fever came, and
for many months the spirit lowered be-
tween earth and heaven.
The morning of life returned, and
the intervening months brought full
ness and sweetness. But disease came
lurking in again and the little form was
stricken, the angel lowering near until
the spirit took its flight, borne away on
wings of love.
She leaves mother and two brothers,
William and Easley.
The friends of the family tender the
kindest sympathy.
Services were held at the home of
Mrs. Penick, and the remains were in
tered at East View in the family lot,

board a steamship that puts in at the
port of Halifax on her return trip
from Holland. They call it 'Hellof-
FIX On our last trip home we were
not far from Halifax when the vessel
broke a shaft. and we were obliged
to put In at a port that was nearer
to us for repairs. 1t was bad break
and likely to delay us. and the cap
tain's temper was considerably ruff
fed. As we steamed into the little
port some of the emigrants. thinking
we had reached Halifax. spread the
news among their fellows, and one of
them who had learned little English
came running to the captain:
"'we-in,-a-Hellofix be inquired

CHARLESTON, W. Va, June IA
The West Virginia delegates TO the
Republican national convention, who
will depart from here tomorrow for
Chicago, will carry with them a boom
for Governor William E. Glasscock for
the vice presidential nomination in the
event that Theodore Roosevelt is nam
ed TO head the ticket. The friends of
Governor Glasscock believe he is en-
titled to second place on the ticket
from the fact that he is the original
Roosevelt man" On January is, last,
almost two months before the head
gear of the famous Rough Rider was
tossed into the squared circle, Cover
nor Glasscock issued a public state
ment in which he declared that a
careful canvass of the political situa-
ton in West Virginia had convinced
him that the people of the state were
overwhelmingly for Colonel Roosevelt
for the Republican presidential nomi-
nation. Furthermore, it is pointed out,
the Governor of West Virginia is the
only one of the seven governors who
prevailed on Roosevelt to be a candi-
date, who carried his state solid in the
contest for delegates.

elder Dumas which furnishes an illus

ligny produced Dumas drama. "Kean,"
with the rather peculiar stipulation
that the author should receive one
third of the gross receipts when these
exceeded 5000 francs and nothing at
all If they fell below that figure.
Dumas. who was always hard up. came
late one evening to get his share.
Luck is against you again." said the
manager. you don't get anything to-
night. Here is the account"
Dumas glanced at it and went away.
In a few minutes he came back aud
said:
Just look over the account again
and then pay me 1000 francs. The
ticket that just bought for 3 francs

Prices In the Tenth Century.


Money values in the tenth century
were very low. according to our ideas.
but as the purchasing power Of money
then equalled from eight to twenty
times what 1t is today one must not
hasten a comparison. writes Charles
W. Hail In the National magazine
In Athelstane's time q horse was worth
100 shillings. an OK 80 pence. q COW 70
pence. a sheep pence. a hog S pence.
slave 20 shillings. making a slave
worth eight oxen. and these prices. ex-
cept in times OF famine. appear to have
changed little under the Norman. In
1856 wheat sold at IS pence the quar-
ter OF eight bushels, and in l24S II
brought only - pence. but In 1924 seed
wheat sold at shillings a bushel. bar
ley at shillings and oats at shilling
per bushel.
