Who Is Oscar MeMahan?

This question has been asked ii
The Times, official organ fol
Hooper and his baby Oscar, anc
is yet being asked by interested
persons, whose fortune is not tc
know him. But they receive in
formation of no great magnitude
Who is Baby Oscar, that anato-
mlcal specimen Of rare statesman
ship ability; that intellectual
genius whose adversely has been
productive of great wisdom and
vlrtuous notoriety, whose general
appearance and pulchritude de-
notes no great moral suasuion or
a great leader of posterity? Who
is this son of such great and noble
ancestors, who were the greatest
and noblest work of God, with all
His years of experience in the
production of humanity?
Who is Baby Oscar, whose SELF
esteem places him beyond the
comprehension and philosophical
reasoning of such men as Spencer,
Socrates or Plato, and whose
brains either of whom would be
a mustard seed compared to that
of his?
How deplorably sad it is that
the English Mountain lost her
fertility in giving vent to the Gre
ton and propagation of her
species, in the form of Baby |
Oscar, that none other has been
born his equal, none other could
or would have mounted the high
ladder Of fame under the same
circumstances. Yet how deceived

Cooke county sons have waded

man that voted for Flint got a

truthful paper and that the piece
was rit by our County Superm-

that he published it three time and

Rally Day and Promotion
Exercises at First Baptist
Church.


Sunday $50 a. M, will be Rally
Day in First Baptist Sunday
school. The superintendent de-
sires to see every pupil, teacher
and officer present. At 1915 a.
M, there will be special exercises
by the Junior and Primary Depts.
OF the Sunday school and the de-
livery of promotion certificates.
Everyone is invited. The parents
OF the children are urged especial
ly to come.

through as great adversities, OBJ
tanned as much education, and as
much sound judgement, who did
not boast that they possessed the
pepper" push" and "move-out,"
as if these qualifications really ex-
ist.
1t is seen that the complete his
tory of Oscar in The Times is very
meagre, and is devoid of interest
to the people who have already
heard enough Of him and his pr
vate life, etc. Nearly every boy
in Cooke county has gone through
with as much, and were not SO
egotlstic as to want everybody to
know it.
Finally to the paramount ques-
ton that is so agitating the minds
OF men, women and children,
Who is Oscar McMahan?"i
He is the son of many and
noble ancestors, having a heridi-
tary tint of mentality which has
almost been disastrous to his well
fare.
He was born into this animal
kingdom, as the greatest speci-
men of Gods creation in the fact
that he really possessed some hui
man qualifications.
He is graduated illiterate of
Carson-Newman College.
Last but not least he is a candi-
date for the legislature from Cooke
county, who is now being bottle
fed by Hooper, who is to do di-
'ectly his biddingif elected, but
he coming election will be the
end of this monstrosity.
CRISTO.

you IN the 59th general assembly

socalled nomination in a farce
primary held on the 18th day of
last March, which, 80 called

satisfaction of all unprecedented
voters. | am a candidate of the
people of Cooke county, and if

A P.n Pietur. Of Lincoln.

And now Abraham Lincoln rose from
his seat, stl etched his long. bony limbs
upward as II to get them into working
order. and stood like some solitary pine
ON lonely summit. very tall. very
dark, very gaunt and very rugged. his
swarthy features stamped with sad
serenity, and the instant hs began to
speak the ungainly mouth lost its
heaviness. the half listless eyes attain
ed wondrous power. and the people
stood bewildered and breathless under
the natural magic Of the strangest.
most original personaIity known to the
English speaking world since Robert
Burns.
There were other very tall and dark
men in the heterogeneous assembly.
but not one who resembled the speak
ef. Every movement Of his long. mus
cular frame denoted inhexible earnest
ness. and a something issued forth.
elemental and mystical. that told what
the man had been, what he was and
what he would do in the future

Measuring Liaht se..s,

Even In this speed mad age we can
never hope to equal the speed Of light.
which the scientists tell us il 10000
miles a second. II light could not ac-
tually be measured no one would be-
lieye It.
There il a delicate instrument used
in measuring light which throws a
beam Of light upon a revolving disk.
There was some doubt about the dg-
ures obtained in this way until it
was found that when the earth was in
the part of its orbit nearest to Jupiter
eclipses took place sixteen minutes
earlier than when 1t was in the far
thermost part, whereas by all rules
Of astronomy they should have taken
place at the same minute each time.
It is deduced from this that. the light
was not instantaneous and consequent
" took sixteen minutes to traverse the
diameter Of the earth's orbit, a dis
tance Of about 100000 900 miles, thug
giving to light velocity Of 10000
miles a second, which was accurately
shown later by other experiments

How IL cabinet secret WAS revealed
In IL most Amazing fashion by II needy
and adventurous penny liner ut the
end Of his resources In related W
Mr.. J. ID. Symon In The Press and
Its Story" 1t was during the ad-
minIstrntion of the Duke of WeillnR-
ton. ut jnncture when the opI'Osition
would have given anything for rome
hint of the cabinets policy. The secret
was well guarded until one evening.
Just at the rising of the house. n penny
II liner, who had been hanging about
Westminster waiting for something to
turn mp. saw the duke emerge from
the house OF lords accompanied by one
Of his colleagues.
Now. the duke In his later years
was very hard Of hearing and cherish
ed thut not uncommon Illusion OF the
deaf. that In order to make other I'eO-
pie hear he. too. must shout. 1t o.
Cured to the scribe that IL he would
only follow the prime minister lie
might hear something to his ndvan-
tage.
The night was dark. SO the penny
a liner managed to keep well within
earshot and yet to escape remark by
those he was following. He had not
gone very far before he knew he was
In luck's way. The duke was actually
talking about the situation In hls usual
loud tones and gradually proceeded
to unfold the policy of the cabinet The
penny liner listened with all his
ears and kept will within range of the
minister all the way to Apsley house.
Thereupon. with beating heart. he
sought some friendly refuge and COM
mitted his discovery to writing. This
done. he lost no time In calling upon
the editor of one Of the leading op-
position papers.
The editor glanced over the article
and was thunderstruck when he reallx-
ed its nature. Here WIS the very thing
for which the party Ind been praying.
Naturally the editor inquired how 10

pe.iness Cannot be Cured

Nv local applications. as they cannot reach the
diseased portions Of the car. There Ia only one
way to cure d. afness, and that is by constitu-
tiOnai remedies. Deafness is caused by an In
famed condition 0f the mucuous lining of the
Fustachian Tube. When this tube is intlamed
you have rumblng sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when It Is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and restored to Its normal condi ion,
hearing will he destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is
nothing but an infiamed condition of the mic-
nous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
