Memoir of Herman E. Tompkins.

WCItIUIt vi ttCt IL tUhtphuos
Herman E. Tompkins, better known
amonS his associates as Tommy, son
of Charles E. and Fanny B. Tompkins,
was born in the Hardins Creek neigh
borhood, near Leesburg, o., July u,
1892 and died at his, home In Leesburg,
Oct %, 1913 aged 2l years, months
and days.
On Dec. 18, 1894, when but little
past two years old he was deprived OF
the greatest OF all life's blessings, the
love and protecting care OF a mother
and March Ia, 1899 the father who had
been stricken with fatal illness, was
claimed by death, leaving Herman to
the care OF his paternal grandparents,
Mr.. and Mrs John Tompkins. Here
he lived and went to school until the
age Of II years, when he removed to
the country home of his mothers par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. George, and
with them two years later removed to
Leesburg where he has since gone in
and out among us, when not called
elsewhere by duty.
Though never blessed with rugged
hea tn, Herman was more than unusu-
ally indust rious, preferring to be busy
always to idle loafng on the streets.
Believing that there we're chances
for him to make his own way, as his
frai strength could not stand all
things he went to Norwood and Spring
field and at the latter place, one year
ago last Thanksgiving, he contracted
a cold which his frail constitution
could not withstand and though he
battled cheerfully and bravely, an in
durable disease had attacked his lungs
and as last resort, in January of the
present year, his friends saw him start
for Tucson, Arizona, with forelorn
hope that he might be benefited but
it was unavailing and on April "a, he
came home much weakened, but him.
self yet hopeful that he might be
spared years of life. This was not to
be, and after months of weary suffer
ing, SO great that at times he longed
to be at rest, he quietly passed away
at 11;3o on the evening of Oct. %
Though not a member of any organ
lied church body, Herman's experience
was deep and abounding, many times
,, to many persons during his long illness
he expressed his perfect faith in his
Savior, and during his last hours oi
: life was heard to whisper, Safe ano
Satisfied"
, Always quiet and courteous in dis
t position he made many warm friends
S wherever he was, and was always
anxious to help them when in need o
help
His adherence to principles he be
laieved to be right was worthy tht
lemulation of his elders.

HER PlIGHTED TR0TH
By NELLIE cRAvEY GILMORE.

Where the road bent Netta selected tempting tuft of grass and seated herself upon it, depositing her numer- ous small packages on the plat of green beside her.
 Flashes of scarlet quivered in her cheeks as Ericson rounded the bend and drew rein. He stood staring down at her for a moment, his hands deep in his trousers pockets, then he dropped abruptly to the grass beside her.
 q think I ought to tell you," he said soberly, that l am going to be married-soon"
 Netta did not speak. For a long time she sat staring in dull way at the small, brown hands that had in- voluntarily clenched themselves in her lap. After a while she glanced up with dry, bright eyes, and held out her fingers. "Of course wish you all possible happiness" she said. you know that. I'd better be going home now,' she added, in g different tone, it is almost dark"
 Ericson assisted her to rise, and for l second afterward stood looking down into her face as he had a hun dred times before; through his eyes trembled something she dared not un- derstand.
 The instant passed, and then the world-the whole world outside those two-seemed to slip and vanish, and Netta lay sobbing in his arms.
 q can never give you up," he cried, brokenly, not if a thousand VOWS and promises stood betweenl"
 The girl drew herself sharply from his embrace with a sudden accession of strength: his words had sobered her.
 "Goodby." she said; you must keep your troth inyiolate; it--it's the only

Before and all about her the wealth of trees and shrubs stood bleak and stripped.
 Two brilliant roses had slipped into the girls cheeks, and the eyes above them looked deep and dark with a radiant happiness. Her hair, black and waving, tumbled picturesquely over a smooth, white forehead.
 Somewhere inside the room a clock struck four, and Netta drew in her breath with sudden heartbeat. Sim ultaneously came the sound of swift. rushing wheels over the hard clay road beyond
 Netta closed the heavy door behind her and slipped softly out into the frozen air.
 Ericson had left his carriage at the tollgate and was coming toward her with outstretched hands.
 "Jack!"
 Sweetheart" he cried, his arms about her.
 Presently he held her away from him to look into the wide-love-lit eyes 'I kept my troth, dear" he said gently. r "I know"
 She died a year ago." he went on, certain soberness coming into his voice, "and she was always happy, I am almost sure of that"
 The girls gaze compelled his for one anxious moment
 She never knew? You are quite certain that she did not suspect any thing?"
 Quite certain" he responded earn estly. She was a good little girl, and it was not hard to do the right thing by her. even though" he added with abrupt fervor, "the love of my life had been given to another-to you" His arms went round her again and Netta hid her blood-burned cheeks.

BRIDGED THE cHAsM
By WILLIAM o. STEVENS.

"Yessir, we've been bridgin' the bloody chasm today" Flushed with the conviviality of the Blue and Gray fraternization, a stranger dropped thumpingly into a chair at my table in the Monticello cafe.
 "Stiggins' my name, I'm c'mander of Winslow post up state," he re- sumed, engagingly, Hast time l was down here to Norfolk I helped in the fust bridgin' of the chasm on record, that's why 1 come all the way to this" My polite look of in- quiry opened the flood gates wide, and the story flowed ripplingly.
 Well, sir, I enlisted November, GA, gets my bounty and calls myself Jones. Then right off the cap'n of our comp'ny was pickin' on me all the time. I stood 1t patient till one day, while I was settin' under tree on picket duty, he come by. Then 1 gets up easy an give him a seeker on the jaw. He didn't wake up for two hours"
 MT. Stiggins paused to ring for an- other high ball. The place was de- serted except for lanky fellow in a broad felt hat whom noticed bending over the hotel register an hour be- fore, and who now seated himself at the adjoining table with his paper and cigar.
 Well, they jugged ne for six months, and that priscn was where we bridged the chasm, like I said.

PLANS TO GROW PIPE STOCK
Cigar Man Prompts the Planting of Seeds From Calabash After
 Successful Experiment.

Fort Wayne, Ind, June l2-They're planning to grow pipes in Adams county, a few miles south of Fort Wayne. T. C. Corbett, a Decatur cigar man, has planted an acre of calahash seed from which he will manufacture the smoking devices.
 His venture is a result of an experi- ment last year, when Mr Corbett planted eight calabash seeds, ob- tained from the government, and grew many gourds which he fashioned into pipes. Uncle Sam has advised the Adams man that he will have but two rivals in the United States in his pipe growing industry.

 The missile narrowly missed the premier, who was speaking, and when it lft the floor the cloth burst and cloud of four spread over the minis. terial benches, almost smothering sey- eral cabinet members.
 The man who threw the flour also showered suffragetle pamphlets on the members, shouting incoherently and wildly about the death of Miss Emily Davison He was subdued and arrested amid great excitement.
