A Sad Death.

Last Monday there arrived in this
city on a house boat Mr.. Elmer Hoov-
er with his wife and mother and lit
tie nephew. They were on their way
to the Delta to make arrangement to
rent a farm for the next year. Tues
day he went up to the city to look for
work and returned to their humble
home with severe chill. Hematuria
developed and by Thursday at one his
soul was standing before his Maker
The shock to those who are left in
a strange land among strangers was
doubly severe, as it took their all and
leaves them helpless. They have two
gasoline boats on their hands which
they are trying to sell that they can
get enough to pay their way back to
home and friends. They left their
Michigan home full of hope several
years ago and for some time lived in
Arkansas, but hearing of the wonder
full productiveness of the Delta, they
put their all in the boats and begun
their journey down the Mississippi to
Vicksburg then on up to Yazoo, ex-
pecting to get work that they could
live on the way.
Death is always sad, but when like
a mighty avalanche it comes and
sweeps away the bread-winner, it is
more sad, but God has promised to
be "a husband to the widow" and in
their sad hour they can look to
Him and know that all will be well
and what ever comes from His hand is
for their ultimate good, though the
way is dark now.

Death of Mr.. Miller.

Oar community was surprised and
panied on Tuesday afternoon to learn
that Mr.. Robert R. Miller rad passed
to his reward that morning about II 30
o'clock. While IL was known that he
was in feeble health, yet there was no
thought that his condition was so SER
ious, or that the end was so near.
Mr.. Miller was in his 72nd year at
the time of his death. He was native
Mississippian, and nearly all his life
resided in Yazoo County, and for
years was a farmer in the Short Creek
neighborhood. He was a brave Con-
federate soldier, serving through the
four years of civil war with credit
and honor, and usefulness to his State.
At the close of the war he returned
to Yazoo County and settled down to
the life of farmer. In 1869 he was
Married to Miss Agnes Britkell, who
preceded him to the grave many years
ago. They had seven children, who sur
vive him, Messrs. r. p, NJ. c., Joe and
Lem Miller. end Mrs. NJ. A. Peaster,
Miss Agnes Miller and Miss Rebecca
Miller. Two other children preceded
him to the grave.
Mr.. Miller always took great in
terest in all that pertained to the well
fare Of his community and country,
and was good citizen in every sense
of the word. Genial, whole-souled, and
with smile for all, he will be sadly
missed By large circle Of friends. as
well as by his children and relatives.
The funeral took place from his
residence in Lintonia at o'clock We'd
nesday morning, the services being
conducted by Rev. w. J. Caldwell, of
the Presbyterian Church, and Rev. Al
bert Martin, Of the Episcopal Church.
He was buried at Fletcher's Chapel,
where his wife was buried, there to
await the resurrection morning.
To the bereaved children and rela-
tives and friends the Herald extends
its heartfelt sympathy.

In a Listless and Unexciting Game,
YazOo Easily Swamped Jack
son 46 to 0.
Piling up forty six points to oppo-
nents zero, Caldwell's Mississippi
Scoring Machine, which holds the best
claim for the Mississippi High School
Championship, easily vanquished the
Jackson High. The final outcome was
never in doubt.
The Jackson team here Thanksgiv-
ing was but a shadow of its former
self, while that representing the va
zoo High School was in top form, to
such an extent that their comeback
on their ancient rivals was effective
to a superlative degree. So complete
and clearly did the Scarlet and Black
outplay the former champs that even
the most ardent admirer and upholder
of the Jackson squad had to admit a
decisive defeat at our hands.
Three men, Stricklin Bridges, Ed.
Warren and Munson Human were re-
sponsible for all points scored by our
team. Bridges on two occasions max
ing run with the ball through the
entire opposing team, once for sixty
five and the second time for forty-five
years; Bridges was the whole thing
for the Yazoo High. Out of the 46
points, he scored thirty, He has proven
himself to be without a doubt one of
the best half-backs the State has ever
turned out, and is predicted by all ex-
perts in the game to have before him
a successful athletic career. Human
and Warren both being credited with
two touchdowns. Their interference
was the best ever seen on the local
gridiron.
Griffin, as usual, played star game,
and by his leadership easily enabled
US to outplay the opposing team in
every point. Dalton, right-end, played
a fine game; his opportune tackling
made up for his failure to hang to two
passes. Rivers, right-taekle, played an
extraordinarily fine game, end too
much praise cannot be given him, for
his work both on the offensive ard
defensive, was coed. Parker, the stone
wall guard was steady throughout the
contest, and easily played all around
his opponent. Nolte, center, played
superb ball. By his errorless passing of
tie ball, not a tumble was recorded
against him during the game. McGraw,
Gibralta gaard, held his fertilization
exceedingly well. Hollingsworth's
work was exceptionally good, and Nc
MURRAY played his usual STANDARD
ball.
John Ball played excellent ball,
in fact, he played the whole game for

Mr.. W. R. Riteh Back for Good.

Mr.. w. r. Ritch, after an absence
of several weeks, returned all booted
and spurred to give to Yazoo County
the very best service which any coun-
ty in the State will receive. Mr.. Ritch
is the biggest thing which has been in
Yazoo County for several years, and
his work has proven to be of the high
est and best that could be procured
for the agricultural interests of this
county. He will go and show any far
mer just how to prepare his land to
get best results and just now is the
real time when every farmer is be-
ginning to lay his plans for the next
year and any one who feels that they
would like any information on the
subject can call on Mr.. Ritch and he
will give his services free.

Richard w. Croker, former Tam
many leader, was married on the rs
to Miss Beulah Benton Edmondson,
member of the Cherokee Indian
tribe, so years his junior. He is 70
and she is %. Today the bride and
groom are on their way to the Crok-
er estate near Palm Beach, Fla, for
their honeymoon.
The wedding took place at the
home Of Nathan Strauss.
Statement Tells Story.
A typewriter statement given out
by the bride after the ceremony
made clear a good deal of her life
history, which had been reported in
many different ways since knowledge
of her engagement became known.
The statement said she was an In
dian princess, known as Princess
Sequoyah or Ketaw Kaluntuchy,
among her tribe. Her father, the
statement continued, was Michael
Smith Edmondson, a descendant Of
Roger de Montgomery, who COM
manded the van Of the Norman army
at the battle of Hastings, and her
mother w;,s Galela WEIGH, who de-
scended from the famous chief Sc
quoyah, inventor of the Cherokee
alphabet.
Croker first saw the girl in Kan
sas City when she was years old,
according to the statement, and he
later became interested in her zeal
to help her people. Miss Edmond
son got inspiration for her work
from Pocahontas and other Indian
girls, she said.
In April the couple will go to the
grcom's home in Ireland, where he
has resided for many years since his
retirement from politics.
