TUPELo MISS. FRIDAY. MAY 2, 1918
Will Robin. Kirkpatrick.

The death of Will Robins Kirk
patrick at the home of his par
ents near Saltillo on the morn
ing of the Oath inst, brought deep
and lasting sorrow to the fond
parents and other members of
the family as well as to the
hearts of many friends.
The little fellow was taken i'll
Tuesday with a chill. A phys
ician was called and his condi-
ton at first was not consid-
cred serious. The following
morning he was not improved
and continued to grow worse
until the end came at II O'Clock
Thursday morning.
Will Robins Kirkpatrick was
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. C. B.
Kirkpatrick and was in his 18th
year. He was an exceptionally
bright boy and in his work at
school he excelled and received
the highest commentator from
his teachers. He was a favorite
among his little associates, al
ways manly and a true loyal
friend. At home he occupied
the place that can never be filled
again. His life was entwined
around the hearts of his parents,
his brothers and his sisters, and
the severing of these endearing
ties has cast a shadow over the
lives Of his loved ones. To them
he was devoted and in his life
there was. hope and joy and
promise. All that remains are
the sweet and sacred memories
that shall last until the reunion
which is promised IN the here
after.
The body was laid to rest in
the cemetery at Saltillo where
manyxlovely flowers were laid
above his last resting place. The
bereaved family have the sym
pathy of their many friends in
this hour of their great sorrow,
in which we join.

STATEU. DC. CONVENTION
Mississippi U. D. c. State Convention
VIII Hold Annual Session in Tupelo
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday

Tupelo will have the honor
next week of entertaining the
United Daughters of the Con-
federacy Of the State Of Missis-
sinpi. This band of women repre-
sent the patriotic spirit that is
alive in the State and by their
efforts the memory Of the Lost
Cause is kept alive in the minds
and hearts of the Southern peo-
pile.
We should not forget the
heroism and valor of our fathers;
they were noble band and we
should delight to honor their
memory and give honor to those
who are foremost in keeping
alive their noble deeds.
The visitors to Tupelo next
week are the daughters of the
gallant band whose cause went
down in defeat but whose honor
came out of the fight unsullied.
We should pay every Difference
to these women and we bespeak
for them that hospitality for
which TupeIo is noted.

Cayce died at the Southern Ho-

he had suffered for the past SIX

He was the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
S. M. Cayce, who run the South
ern Hotel. He was popular

untimely death is generally re-
GREETED. The remains were car

The Andrews Meeting.


conducted by the Methodist con-
gregation for the East two weeks
with Rev. John B. Andrews, of
Arkansas, the evangelist con.
Quoting the services, closed
Wednesday evening. There
were during the meeting 237
conversions. From the first
sermon Mr.. Andrews created in
terest by his direct and personal
appeal to those who were living
outside of the church to renounce
their sins and become better
men and women. The interest
continued to grow and the con-
gregation grew larger with each
succeeding meeting until the
tabernacle had to be furnished
with more seating room. The
evangelist has been deep stud
ent of human nature and select
ed those texts which afford him
an opportunity to impress upon
the lives and hearts of his hearers
the Importance of living in ac-
cordance with divine teachings.
1t is impossible to analyze fully
the secret of his success, but in
the main it is due to his direct
method of aiming at the mark
and putting all the power behind
the gun to make his ammunition
reach the spot. At times he is
full of humer and relieves the
tensity Of the situation by a
quaint story that points moral
and deftly applies the case to
that of man he hopes to reach.
There is nothing of the sectarian
in his preaching, while strong
denominationalist himself, be-
lieving in the doctrine of the
Methodist church, yet. liberal
and open in preaching the scrip
lures. He invited all the other
churches TO come and aid in the
meeting and enjoy the blessings
that he felt would come to them.
Tupelo has never seen a revival
of greater proportions and the
city is left with the spirit Of
religious enthusiasm fully aroused.
The singing conducted by Mr..
and Mrs. Smith added no little
to the services. Each has a
voice we'll adapted to sacred
music. Their voices are highly
cultured and seldom has Tupelo
an opportunity to enjoy such
rich and highly cultivated voices.
Mr.. Andrews left Wednes-
dav night for Birmingham, Ala,
where he goes to visit his moth
err. Mr.. and Mrs. Smith left
for Meridian Thursday where
Mr.. Andrews will begin a meet
ing Sunday.

THE MILITATY INSTITUTE
Subscribers Hold Meeting and Elect Irus-
Buildings to be Ready tor
Opening Next September

After several days conference
with the subscribers to the train
ing school for boys, Professor
Geo. w. Chapman completed the
final arrangements to put the
school on foot,
At a meeting of the subscrlb-
ers to the fund held Tuesday
morning at the City Hall a board
of trustees composed of the fol-
lowing was selected for the new
achool:
wv. T. Reeves. c. R. Strain,
ia w. Allen, S. ]. High, V. c.
incannon, M. E. Leake, K. c.
Kinds, w. L. Joyner, F. H. Mitts,
'B. A. Rogers. Immediately af-
ter the adjournment of the meet
ing of the subscribers the Board
of Trustees held a meeting for
the purpose of naming a building
committee and taking other
steps necessary to put the school
in operation next fall. After
some discussion it was decided
to name the new school the
r,lpelo Military Institute. The
line will be military and
snfederate gray was adopt
Ehe uniform. The matter
building committee was set
a by naming M. E. Leake,
ksa w. Allen and C. R. Strain
as a committee. This committee
will begin Immediately to in
vestigate the cost of the new
building, the plan of which has
already been agreed upon by
Mr.. Chapman and the Board.
The site of the new school will
be at the intersection of Blair
and Clayton streets and will set
in a commanding place fronting
the east.
The lot is being graded and
the site will be a very pretty
one. The work will be rushed
as soon as the contract can be
made and it is the purpose of
the President, Mr.. Chapman,
and the Board to open this school
the End or 3rd Monday in Sep
tember.
The establishment of the boys
training school will advance
Tupelo materially from an educa-
tional standpoint. There is a
wide territory from which boys
may be drawn who desire to
prepare themselves for college.
Every avenue in school work
seems to have been covered in
Mississippi with the exception
of boys training schools, the
number of these is limited and
the establishment of one in a
permanent and popular town can
not fail if properly managed.
The President of the school, Mr..
, Chapman, of Paris, KY, comes
to us most highly recommended.
For seven years he has been
principal of the city schools OF
Paris. His letters of endorse
ment are from the leading men
of the state and he is classed
among the foremost educators
of the South. The curriculum
will begin with sub-freshman
class and extend through the
senior class. The line of study
will be adapted to preparation Of
the boys to enter the Universe
ties and will include everything
required to admit them on
.a-t;f;cate of graduation. The
prospect seems flattering for q
vood opening and the school will
no doubt have all of the appli-
cants that can be accommodated.

old, of 327 Stockton street, was fined
SIS this morning by Recorder Pick

the value of about fifteen cents from
the +. w. Woolworth 5 and 10 cent

fault of payment he was returned to

AWNING AFIRE
IN STATE ST.
PasssrbY Discovers Blaze
Workmen Burn Hands

While pedestrians walked along
the west side of the street in front
of the variety store OF Gordon and
Streiff, at 319 State street, about 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon, over
their heads burned an awning, which
was at the top of the second floor
windows. One pedestrian coming
under the burning canvas and mar
rowly missing being struck by par
ticles of the burning cloth falling to
the pavement, looked up, and saw
the flames. He ran to box 81, at
State and Smith streets, and gave the
fire alarm. The awning was entirely
consumed and part of the one over
the variety store was demolished
The chemicals of the Washington
Hose and Chemical Company, how
e7er, kept the lower awning from be-
ing entirely consumed and prevented
from spreading.
II. Feinberg and M Kaplan, cab
met makers at "a Smith street, were
on the second floor laying linoleum
in the apartments which were being
refltted. Kaplan was near the win
dow, over which the awning caught
fire, and felt the heat, which attrac-
ted his attention. Feinberg was
then called, and the latter hastily got
to the ledge under the window and
with his bare hands pulled down
parts of the burning canvas. Pieces
of the flaming material fell to the
awning Just below and set it afire.
Feinberg took off his coat and was
fighting this new fire, trying to
smother the flames, when the Lin
coin Engine Company, Protection IL
& L. Company and Washingtons ar
rived. His right arm and hand were
burned slightly, as was the right
hand of kaplan, who also helped to
pull down the awning which caught
first, The value of the first awning,
which belonged to The owner OF the
building, Jacob p. Goldsmith, was
tritling. The damage done to the
variety stores sun protector was
slight only one end having been
burned.
