The untimely death of Rev j. N.
Prestridge, d. ID is an irreparable
loss to the Baptist denomination of
America. Since he had been pastor
of the Baptist church at Hopkins
vile from 1884 to 1889 his friends
had watched his rise to distinction
with just pride in his achievements.
He spent part of his vacation every
year with the family of his father
in law, DIR. Clardy, in this county
and was quite well known here and
was esteemed by many friends out
side of religious circles. His paper,
the Baptist World, was widely read
in this county and DR.. Prestridge
made it a rule to attend the Baptist
Associations all over this section,
and in fact all over the state. He
was useful in every department of
church work and his clear head and
wise counsel were helpful in every
gathering where he found himself.
His last public appearance in this
vicinity was at the meeting of Beth
el Association at Auburn a few
Iiweeks ago and he appeared then to
rbe in the best of health and took an
active part in all discussions. AS a
minister. an editor and consecrat-
ed leader in church work, his place
will be hard to fill. 1t is hard TO un-
derstand Gods wisdom in removing
such man in the midst Of his ca
reer of usefulness and devotion.

fall and had small bone broken in
one of his arms. The injury does
not amount to much and Mr.. Hol-

Now that Huerta has made farce
of the election called to choose a
President of Mexico, terrorizing all
who were not willing to vote for
themselves, although he claimed not
to be a candidate, it is up to Uncle
Sam to take notice of the Dictator S
high handed proceedings. With the
consent of other nations, President
Wilson is preparing to read the riot
act to Heurta and his gang.

HISTORY OF
MUHLENBERG
Otto A. ROthert, of Louisville,
Is The Author of The.
Volume.
OVER 200 ILLUSTRATIONS
Most Complete History Ever
Published of Any County
In Kentucky.

A valuable addition to the pioneer
history of Western Kentucky has
been contributed by Otto A. Roth
ert, of Louisville, in comprehensive
history of Muhlenberg county. The
author is a member Of the FilsoU
Club, the State Historical Society,"
the American Historical Association
the International Society of Archae-
ologists, etc, The history was writ
ten solely because Of the interest and
pleasure taken in the work. 1t per-
tains principally to the history of the
county from its beginning to 1875
but also brings the record more
briefly up to the present time. Mr.
Rothert is young man of higts
ideals. He is not a resident of Muh-
lenberg but his family owns extensive
timber lands in the county and dug
ing his temporary visits there he
became interested and concluded to
write a book that would give them
a proper place in Kentucky history.
1t was the work of seven years, dur
ing which the author wrote at leisure
times. The book is fine volume of
500 pages and 240 illustrations. 1t is
the best county history we have ever
seen, not only in neatness, compact
ness and thoroughness. but also in
its interesting illustrations and liter-
airy style. 1t is an ideal county his
tory and will serve as a good model
for any one writing a county history.
This fact and the fact that it con-
tains much of general interest as
sures it place in leading libraries.
In addition to its historical value
the book contains some interesting
archaeological material. A feW
pages are devoted to the evidences
of prehistoric men in Muhlenberg
county and it gives a picture of a
mound and some stone relics found
in the county.
Many of the pictures are Of old
citizens. There are local traditions.
stories and incidents familiar to ev-
cry Muhlenberger. One chapter is
devoted to "Lonz Powers" the book
written by James Weir, of Green
vile, 63 years ago, dealing with the
career and execution of Alonzo PEN
nington in 1916. Many of the scenes
in the book were in Muhlenberg.
though Pennington lived in Christian
county. This part of the history Is.
especially interesting.
Muhlenberg county will be envied
by every other county in Kentucky
for no other county has such a record
of its early settlement and pioneer
settlers.

Body Of Rev. DR.. J. N. PreSt-
ridge Buried Here Yes
terday.
WAS LARGELY ATTENDED.
DR.. PreStridge Was Known By
Everybody Here and Was
Very Popular.

The body of Rev j N Prestridge
arrived here yesterday morning at
IL O'Clock and the burial took
place from the Louisville & Nash
vile depot The following pallbear-
ers met the train: Thos. w. Long,
M. c. Forbes, George D. Dalton, T.
| c. Underwood, F. L. Waller and H.
H. Alternately.
The body was accompanied by
Rev. J. r. Sampey, Mrs. Prest,
ridge and by Mrs. Jouett Henry and
Miss Annie Bacon Clardy, who went
to Louisville Wednesday night to
be with Mrs. Prestridge
The train bearing the body arrived
at II O'Clock and brief services were
held at the grave in Riverside Gene
terry After the casket was lowered
into the grave the opening was COW
eredwith theforal offerings, the vault
to be completed later by the masons.
Rev DR. j. r Sampey, who came
from Louisville with the funeral par
ty, made a few appropriate and
highly eulogistic remarks. He said
no man living today was better
known all over the Christian world
than DR.. Prestridge. He had per-
sonal friends in almost every foreign
country, through his leadership in
the Baptist Worlds Alliance, to
which the last ten years of his useful
life had been devoted.
In England, Russia, Australia and
the world over he had personal cor
respondence and in every land almost
the grief we share in his death will
be shared by loving friends. He
was man of high ideals, optimistic
spirit and unbounded faith Genial
and sunny in his disposition, kind
and loving in his impulses, he had as
many friends as any man alive in the
Baptist church with its millions of
members. His whole life was key
ed to the central idea of evangeliz-
ing the whole world for Christ His
place cannot be filled until God rails
es up and trains some man for the
work DR.. Prestridge laid down when
the gates opened as he sat in his
chair after breakfast Wednesday
morning. He was 60 years old as
we reckon time, but his great work
will endure while time shall last.
Rev. DR.. Dulin, of Bowling Green,
concluded the service with feeling
Besides DR.. Dulin, Mr..
Ben Proctor, of Bowling Green, DR..
T. A. Johnson and Mrs. Vanderyeer,
DIR. Prestridge's sister, came with
Mrs. Prestridge.

HEARTY WELCOME

Grand Junction gave 1913 hear
ty welcome with blare of noises and
good many social events in full
swing, including the great annual
Firemen's ball. There We're scores
of parties in different sections of the

whisked off the reel and the new
year started with pomp and cere-
mony.
At the Y. M. C. A.. 'open house,

ceremony whatever. The building
was open from early morning until
late at night, and several visitors
went through the big structure.
All the stores in the city, barber

there was but little stir on the city
