GIenvilIe Loses a Good Citizen.

Last Wednesday morning, at 4
O'Clock, Mr. ]. H. Kelsey, who lived at
Chenille, this county, died after
several weeks of intense suffering. The
cause of his demise was caused from
an abcess that formed near his back
bone. Two weeks ago he underwent
an operation, DIR. McChord, of Leba-
non, using the knife, but the skill of
the surgeon brought no relief. The
deceased was a grandson of the late j.
P. Miller, and was about thirty-one
years old. He was a good citizen and
will be greatly missed from the COM
munity where he was born and reared
He leaves a wife and two children,
several brothers and sisters, Mr.. N.
B. Kelsey, of this place, being broth
er, and Mrs Henry Hudson being a
sister. He was also nephew of Mrs.
III. n. Miller and Mrs. A. H. Ballard.
The funeral was largely attended

j. Alfred Murrell and myself spent a
day pleasantly in Happy Hollow, in
company with one Mrs. Clark, an in
tereSting lady, who had been afflicted
for Z years with distressing disease
that affected her hands and arms
much of the time not being able to
feed herself, and like the woman
spoken of in the Bible; Had suffered
many things CT many physicians, y
some of whom pronounced it real pei

by some of the best physicians that

as specific in several diseases. His

when on his death bed said to his
medical brethren; "We have done

Base Ball.

There were two ball games at this
place, on Lindsey Wilson diamond,
last Saturday afternoon. The first
meet was Pickett's Chapel against
Columbia. The game was exciting
and at one time it looked like Co
lumbia would be an easy winner, eight
to two being the score at the end of
the seventh inning, but here the Co
lumbia boys made a bad break and
Pickett's Chapel run in five scores,
making the score stand eight to seven
in favor of Columbia, and that was
the result when the contest closed.
Ozark against Cane Valley followed,
and the game was spirited throughout,
closing eleven to eight in favor OF

Take Notice.

From this date, September the Sth,
we will not and can not accept any
more custom work in our planning mill.
The demand for our own material is
so heavy that it is beyond our power
to continue the policy we have here
tofore used. The change of machinery
for so many little bills prevents us
from meeting the demands for our
own manufactured products, hence the
necessity for dropping custom work.
We will at all times be in position to
furnish anything in dressed lumber
needed in this section and will buy
your lumber at market price. All lum.

ordered but no more will be accepted
