In Memory of Mrs. Emily Luse.

Whereas in the providence of God
our friend and co-laborc e, Mrs. Emily
Luse, has been called from our midst
to Join the radiant host of the church
triumphant, therefore by the members
of the Woman's Societies of the Meth
odist church be it
Resolved /. That in the passing of
Mrs. Luse our Church and society has
suffered the loss Of it's oldest member,
both in point Of years and member
ship, one whose service was constant
ly, gladly and effectively given to adj
vance the Kingdom of God. No cause
of her beloved church ever failed for
each Of her generous ministrations,
and throughout her long noble life,
even down to the honoerd age of 80
beautiful years, she was Faithful
unto the end"
Resolved 2. That to her beloved in
ner circle of devoted kindred and num-
erous friends, we tender earnest SYM
pathy for their irreparable loss, know
ing the aching hearts will long in vain
"for the sound of voice that is still"
She was most loyal in her friendship,
and her cheerful, sprightly disposition
rendered her sympathetic compan-
ion to both old and young people. This
fondness for her by those in life's
springtime found beautiful expression
at her grave. Young hands lined her
last resting place with cover of
snowy white, softly caressed by cling
ing ivy, and thus the beloved form
was hidden from mortal view.
Resolved, 3. That while none but
God can give true consolation in hours
of distress and gloom, yet we can
share the grief of the bereaved by our
sympathy and tears and prayers, that
they may realize that there is no sor-
row that heaven cannot heal.
Resolved, 4. That copy of these
resolutions be published, a copy be
spread on the minutes of our society
and copy sent to the family.
Respectfully sumbitted,
MRS. L. B. CRAIG,
MRS. N. B. HARMON,
Committee.

Mr.. Dave Wolerstein to Retire.

Mr.. Dave Wolerstein will close his
connection with the Yazoo Opera
House with this week, and it will be
source of genuine regret to the pa
irons of this popular play house. For
thirty years he has selected the best
troupes which could be obtained for
engagements, bringing many stars
here that did not go to other places
of this size by putting up guarantee
of certain sum. Often he would lose
money, but he never croaked and al
ways showed up the same genial
whole-souled Dave, ready to accommo-
date friend or give a hand-out to
the fellow who was down.
Good times and hard times he was
always the same, feeling sure that
what he lost today he would gain to-
morrow. Nothing but the fact that his
physician persuaded him that his
health demanded change could have
gotten him to give up business which
he loved, and in which the people low
ed to have him.
However, we are glad he will con-
tinue to be with US, as he has made ar
Irangements to establish manufacture
ing agency here in which business we
hope he will meet with great success.
Mr.. Wolerstein will take a much
needed rest before he begins his work.
He knows the needs of Yazoo City as
well as any can in it, as he has been
closely identified with its business and
social interests since he was a boy.

Foot Ball Today.

The Yazoo boys will again be on
The gridiron this afternoon, This time
it will be with the Greenwood High
School. Our Yazoo boys are making a
name for themselves in the athletic
world as being a good, strong bunch
to go against. They put up a good,
clean game throughout, and they have
learned the game thoroughly, which
makes them very formidable oppo-
nents. The boys are justly proud of
their record, as they have been their
own managers, coach and directors all
the season. Encourage them in their
efforts to keep pace with the other
schools of the State by going to their
games and contributing to their ex-
pense fund.

the hill and the Poulos machine. Page,

from the north and about to make the
turn at the corner of College street down

swiftly. Why they coilided seems to be
a disputed question and neither man ad
mits he was at fault There is no dis
putting the fact that they came together.
Mrs. Lord and baby were in Mr.. Lords
car and both were thrown out by the
Mrs. Lord received some slight
bruises but nothing serious and the ba-
by was unhurt. The car was struck
amidships and the running board and
mud guard on the side OF impact were
smashed. The front axle was also put
out of commission, and viii have te be
replaced. The damages to the Poulos
ar, which was the heavier machine, were
confined to a bent mudguard The Ford
ar was photographed in the position
% where il was pushed various measure
nents were taken, and Mr.. Poulos had
MS lawyer on the scene.
