Whose Bicycle?

A week ago tomorrow some one left
bicycle, real good wheel, in the
yard of Mr.. Lewis Gardiner 141 Duke
of Gloucester street.
1t has not been called for up to this
time, and Mr.. Gardiner is advertising
for the owner in another column of the
Capital. 1t seems strange that good
bicycle should be discarded at all,
much less left in the yard of private
residence for week.

Letter to Corn Club Boys.

Dear Boys:-The State and Tri-
State fairs are now over, and
owing to the lateness of some of
the plats, only about half of the
boys made exhibits at these fairs.
However, the tWenty-seven boys
who made exhibits at the state
fair and the thirty.seven at the
Memphis fair, won great credit for
the cause in Weakley county.
The question now confronting
US is the harvesting Of our corn
and making preparation Ssfor the
county fair, Oct. -, "A, Is and Is,
and the corn club show in
November.
"A Be sure to have your acre
measured by two disinterested
parties and speak to these men to
help gather your acre, so that they
may be prepared to sign or witness
your report book. This is very
important, as you will not be
eligible to compete for all prizes in
the corn club show if you neglect
this.
You should begin at once to
select a ten.ear exhibit for the
county fair. 1t takes a good,
energetic boy to select an exhibit
in the right way, and it's no fore
breakfast" job, II you have nc
other way OF sending your corn tc
the fair, send it by parcel post or
Monday before the fair opens, anC
address it to the County Agent
Before sending, each ear should
be wrapped separately and ther
tied in a bundle. We wish tC
appeal to every club boy to have g
ten-ear exhibit at the county fail
and be present at least on schoo
day if you cannot attend the entire
fair.

Woman Cremated.

On Tuesday afternoon the home
of Mr.. Bud Simmons, situated
west of Greenfield, in the Twenty
second district, was burned to the
ground, about 4 o'clock, and a
neice OF Mr.. Simmons, a woman
about thirty years of age, who is
said to have been weak minded,
was burned to deaf.
The origin Of the fire is un-
known, as there was no one at
home at the time, except the
woman who was burned, and it is
presumed that she was in an
upstairs room asleep. Nothing
was saved. We used two tele-
phones for more than an hour
trying to get full particulars, but
got such poor service over both
phones that but little information
was gained.

Country Home Burns.

The home of Mr.. VIM. Win
stead, residing just east of Pisgah
church, was burned to the ground
Monday night at 1920, together
with practically the entire con-
tents, the family escaping in their
night clothes, not having time to
dress. When the family was
awakened the entire roof was
ready to fall in and all made haste
to escape without dressing. The
fire had its origin in the cook
room, but whether from a defec-
tive hue or some other cause is
not definitely known.
The alarm was given and soon
neighbors gathered. Two feather
beds, a dresser and a trunk con-
stitute the household goods saved
from the flames. Mr.. Winstead
came in home from the tobacco
barn about s o'clock, we under
stand, but saw no evidence OF
fire at that time. We are inform
ed that be carried $1,250 in
surance on the building and con-
tents, but this does not near
cover his loss, as his dwelling was
nice, substantial six-room struc-
ture.
It was sad spectacleon Tuesday
morning to see members of the
unfortunate family standing about
bare-footed viewing the ruins Of
their magnificent home, but kind
hearted neighbors came to their
rescue and soon clothed them.

Birth Anniversary Celebration,


On last Saturday, our esteemed
friend, that noble christian gentle
man, Mr.. ]. ]. White, whispered
to We editor that he had it by grape
vine that his good wife, daughters
and sons were preparing a big
birthday dinner for him, to be
spread on Monday, suggesting
that if we could do so to come out.
Mr.. White knew our fondness for
big spreads and knew at once that
we would be there-rain or shine,
hot or cold, sick or. we'll we
nearly said dead or alive. So
Monday morning, we took those
valiant old heroes Of the lost cause,
Uncle Joe Covington, Uncle John
Terrell and Col. E. E. Tansil, in
our car and the four of us made
double quick time to the White
home, five miles out-and even
that was not quick enough for
Uncle John Terrell, who vowed ne
smelled the mutton long betroe
reaching our destination.
Upon arriving we were greeted
by a number of ladies and gentle
men, all assembled to honor man
deserving OF anv honor that could
possibly be conferred upon him,
for Mr.. Whites life has been an
inspiring one. He has been a
blessing to his family and to the
community insswhich he has lived
for so many years. In 1870 Mr..
White, then in the pride Of his
youth, full of life and energy and
ambition, settled where he now
resides, first building two box
rooms, which he and his bonny
bride, who, by the way, has lost
but little Of her maiden beauty,
occupied until they could accumu-
late enough to add to. Additions
we're made until today they have
an excellent country home, sur
rounded by many beautiful shade
trees. They are happy in their
old days, for their children gather
there frequently, and, with Mr..
White as the leader, enjoy many
a pleasant hour singing the sweet
songs Of Zion.
Those present and enjoying the
hospitality on last Monday were:
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ]. White, Mr.. and
Mrs. B. f. Hawks and three
children, Mr.. and Mrs. S. P.
White and two children, Mr.. and
Mrs. Geo. White and one child,
Mr.. and Mrs. R. D. White and
three children, Mr.. and Mrs. Clogs
Wright, Rice, Jim Bell and Miss
Lucille White, this constituting the
children and their husbands and
children, and Mr.. and Mrs. John
White, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. W.
Somers, Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Palmer,
Mrs. Susie Glasgow, Mrs. Togie
Boaz, Col. E. E. Tansil, Uncle Joe
Covington, Uncle John Terrell,
these three being war comrades of
Mr.. White; Rev. T. J. Simmons,
Mr.. Tom Palmer and daughter,
Miss Pink Somers and Joe L.
Holbrook.
1t would be impossible to de-
scribe the magni6cence Of the
dinner. Suffice us to say that it
was one OF those good country
dinners, every article Of food being
we'll prepared, such as Mrs. White
and her charming daughter, Miss
Lucille, are noted for setting before
hungry men. We don't say this
just to please these good women,
but say it because its a fact. Mr..
White was the recipient of several
gifts.
1t was an ENJOYABLE day, and
one which we hugely enjoyed.

1t was at first planned to make a
fitting reply to the letters of resigna-
tion from the committeeman from
Bergen, Hudson and Passaic, but after
a warm debate it was decided to abide
by the counsel of Mr.. Colby to let
kindness prevail. Colonel ]. w. How
ard, of Essex, was particularly bitter
against the backsliders, two of whom
he characterized as office seekers and
self-seekers." He did not name the
two he had in mind.
Howard Dodd, of Essex, was ap-
pointed to the place made vacant by
the resignation of Frank L. Driver,
of Newark, who has not deserted the
ProgressiVes, but found it impossible
to serve on the committee because
of pressure of business.
At the conclusion of the meeting
the committee gave out a statement,
part of which follows:
THE Progressive party was the
first party in New Jersey to advocate
woman suffrage. 1t promises its
hearty support to that cause at the
special election in October.
Since its formation in 1912, the
membership of the Progressive party
in New Jersey have steadily exerted
themselves to secure proper legisla-
fion towards carrying out their plat
form pledges, and in so doing have
maintained an attitude of non-parti-
sanship. They have been instruc
mental in passing the labor bureau
bill and woman suffrage amendment
referendum through the New Jersey
Legislature. They have through their
activities brought about the passage
of the bill for the relief of the Nor
ris Plains asylum, and the ultimate
reduction of the enormous taxes
arising from the maintenance of that !
institution. They have steadily ad- |
vocated local option bills and the |
bill to abolish capital punishment.
1.-THE usefulness of the Progressive |
party is such that its continuance as |
a party is imperatively demanded"

PROGRESS|VES TO

Have Quit.
Special to tho Evening Star.

ASBURY PARK, Aug 1.-The Pro-
gressive party in New Jersey has
taken new lease of life, and will be
with us again this fall. Despite the
fact that three of its leaders have quit
cold, the Progressives decided at their
State committee meeting here Satur-
day that they would not give up the
ship, and other men were appointed
to fll the places of those who re-
signed.
Although originally planned as a
meeting Of the Progressive State Com
mittee, there were many present who
were not members, but who enthusias-
tically discussed the prospects for
1915. Even the designations of George
L. Record, of Hudson; Herbert NJ.
Bailey, of Bergen, and James G.. Blau-
welt, Of Passaic, did not dampen their
ardor.
Ruby Succeeds Record.

to poll 10000 votes for the Bull Moose
