This suit is the result of anothe
suit filed by Dahnke- Walker Millin.

DR.. Pratt Killed.

Humboldt, Tenn, Oct. 3.-Dr. j
J. Pratt, who exhibited an educated
horse at the Tri-County Fair here
all this week, was killed early last
night when the large tent pole fell
on him, striking his head, while TAX
ing the tent down. This untimely
death brought a most gloomy end
to an otherwise pleasant fair week.
DR.. Pratt was a most estimable citi-
zen of the Mckenzie vicinity and, at
great labor, had educated a horse to
understand the English language al
most as perfectly as human being.
He was double first cousin of ]. R.
of this place. The re-
mains were taken last night to Nc
Kenzie for interment, accompanied
by his daughter, who had spent the
week with him here.

400 DEAD IS TOLL OF
STORM ON GULF COAST
Territory Between New Orleans and
Mobile Reports Casualties.

New Orleans, Oct. 3.-Four hun.
dred dead and property loss various
ly estimated at over $25,00O,OOO
sums UP the result of the storm that
swept big part of Louisiana and
Mississippi all of Wednesday and
Wednesday night. Wires have been
down ever since the first blow of
the storm, railroads have been tied
up and the news has been trickling
in slowly because the points which
suffered the most have been mac
cessible by boats.
The death toll in New Orleans and
immediate vicinity was 27. Most of
the others who perished were in the
unprotected fishing villages in the
Barataria section and in the waters
lying between the Mississippi and
Louisiana State lines.
Thousands of persons have been
left homeless by the hurricane, but
New Orleans and the States of
Louisiana and Mississippi are fully
able to afford all the relief needed.
More than rs boats, loaded with
food, medicines, bedding and physi-
clans, have been dispatched to va
rious points.
The telephone and telegraph wires
leading to the places which suffered
greatest are being gradually re-
stored and every hour or so messages
are received telling of additions to
the death list. The estimate of 400
dead is conservative and it is feared
that within the next "a hours a hun
dred more will be added.

and some day decay, but the tempt,
of loving remembrance in the human
heart is beyond the reach of decay
There we enshrine the memory o
our dead comrades to-day.
They were brave men. They lived
four years, 1861-1865,on the edge OIL
peril and bore their part in that
great conflict. They bade wife
daughter, mother, sister and sweet.
heart goodbye, and went forth tc
battle, not knowing that they should
ever meet again on earth. But they
put their trust in God and knew If
they should fall in battle they had
an eternal home in Heaven.
| Let us make the Christian doctrine
of death part of this memorial
service. Death is only an incident
in the progress of life. 1t leads us
into a fairer and better world. We
cannot prevent death nor force it to
disclose it's date, but we can decline
despair because of its presence. We
can gaze past it's shadows to the
everlasting morning.
Our dead comrades have not ceased
to be. The places in the rank of our
comradeship which seems vacant are
filled with immortals. AS we call
the roll of the deau there seems to
be no answer, but it is not because
there is no response but because our
ears are not keen enough to hear the
inaudible. Certainly the streams of
the spirit would flow hard by our
common life and ever and again to
the heart that is quiet enough to
hear the inaudible, there comes the
suggestion of the life beyond the
grave. The greater part of the Con-
federate army have crossed the river
of death and part are crossing now,
but real comradeship stands ever
with unbroken ranks.
In this great faith let us dry our
tears and comfort our sorrows. In
this triumphant creed, let us boldly
stand and toll with the undimmed
conception that man is not an acci-
dent, but the child of God with an
eternal destiny journeying along a
road whose vistas are endless.
Whether death comes soon or late,
wherever it meets us, let us be able
to greet it with quiet serenity with
some of The triumphant hope of Saint
Paul when he said This mortal shall
put on immortality"
Comrades, life is like the day. It's
sun descends the western sky; it's
shadows lengthen to salute the COM
ing night; reminds us that very soon
we too must cross the turbid wa
ters of the dark river of death to the
shores of the unknown land. But
beyond the shadows and the dark
ness" by faith we can almost see the
shores of the land of the immortal
glories and hear the glad shouts of
our loved ones who have passed be-
fore us.
Comrades, happy we will be if |
when the day is ended and the shad-
ows of night fall softly around us,
it can be said of us we have been
faithful into death; therefore, there
IS laid up for us a crown of life.
Comrades, we are passing out of the
shadow,
Into a fairer and purer light;
stepping behind the curtain,
Getting clearer sight.
laying aside the burden,
Of this weary mortal coil;
Done with the worlds vexations,
Done with it's tears and toll.
Yes, passing out of the shadows,
Into eternal day;
Why! oh why do we call it dying,
This sweet going away?
Respectfully submitted,
