London, May 23 The money market
remains consistently stagnaHt, with no
change in discounts. the most interest

current on Friday that a syndicate Of

foot in the war. No confirmation o.
the report was forthcoming. however.
In the London market the Bank OF
England lost $95J.000, chiefly through
the earmarking Of gold for Argentina
and Withdrawals from Ottawa 70 New
York. but at the same time there was
a decrease of 100000 in note clrcu-
lation, so that the proportion Of re-
serve 20 liabilities fell only to 2O.5o.
The gold stock now stands at S3Oo,-
100000. which is some S30.0OO,OOO bet
ter than a month ago. Public deposits
increased again last week by nearly
$4,000. 600 10 S652 100000, and there
was slightly better demand for treas

 Thy Glorious warfare is past. Thy battles are fought. Thy victory won.
 And thou art crowned at last. With a smile upon her lips the gleam of heaven in her eyes her soul was transplanted to that home beyond the skies.

OBITUARY

Mrs. Sarah, A. (HalD Cook was born in Wilcox County Ala. on May 18th l842. And depart 1 ed this life on June 23rd 1915 after an illness of more thar two months duration. On Nov, 23rd 1865 she was married tc Chas. w. Cook. To this unior were born three sons. All of whom are living. The eldest. D. Cook of Benton Ark, w. J. and T. l.. who reside near the old homestead. She professed faith in Jesus Christ in 1875 in La. A short time after which the faimly moved to SeVeir County Ark.
 After living there only a short while they moved to Nevada County. Settling on the home stead where she lived until death claimed her. In the year 1885 she with her husband united with the Methodist Protestant Church, at Antioch as charter members under the Pastorate of Rev. finders to this Church she remained a loyal member, a de- vout and Consistent Christian. Grandma, as she was called was loved by all who knew her, her life was one that was worthy of emulating. She always had a kind word for everyone. she came in the presence of. It was hers to give roses in the place thorns. And to scatter rays of sunlight into darkened homes and lives. And to help bear the burdness of others.
 She was not narrow in her religeouS pleferment.
 She loved all Christian peo- pie and Christian churches. They all had a warm place in her loving heart, her home was the home of any Gospel preacher and she was benediction to any who might have had the blessed opportunity of being in the home of this Christian mother Yet she loved her Church. The Methodist Protestant Church the best of all. She prov ed her ! faith in it, her Ioyality to it, by

her noble deeds, by her Godly life, by her daily walks, by her Spiritual Conversation. And too by her attendance at her stated services. The Sunday School and the preaching services she filled her place regular unless hindred by sickness or other un- avoidable circumstances. And as far as she was able she always contributed of her means liber- ally to the support of the church. As her pastor, it was our pleas ure to visit her at different times during her sickness. While she expessed great de- sire to get well, and attend the church services again and worship on the altars of her be- loved Zion again, yet she was perfectly resigned to Gods Will. She had everything in readiness for the summons.
 Too much can not be said of this Sainted Mother, de- vout Christian, loving wife. and kind neighbor. But suffice it to say that she like Dorcas of old, was firm in the faith and full of good works. Yes all was done that loving hands could do. But she had to succumb to the ravages of a complication of diseases.
 Friends and neighbors did all that they could. Husband and children, as well as other loved ones. administered faithfully until the last moments. At 2:1O o'clock a. m., June 23rd, amid the sobs and signs, griefs and tears, of friends and loved ones, her spirit left the house of clay and passed triumphantly to it's God.
 (OhD how we'll miss her at the Church and and in her home yes we feel her loss. The neigh borhood feels her loss the church feels her loss.
 Last but not least Uncle Char lie, Will and Lee, feels her loss most of all. Then let us say be faithful, love and serve the mothers God as she did and some sweet day not far distant you will meet again when part lAg is no more.
