Noble Woman Gone
Mrs. Priscilla Drye Passes Away
Suddenly at Hustonville.

Lincoln county lost one of its very
best women Sunday evening when
the spirit of Mrs. Priscilla Bailey
Drye returned to the God who gave
it. Death came suddenly and acute
indigestion is believed to have been
the trouble. Mrs. Drye was in her
usual health during most of the day,
but complained little in the after
noon. All of a sudden she grew des-
perately ill and in few short mo-
ments the grim reaper had done its
work. Deceased was a sister of
Judge Bailey, of this city, and the
mother of w. S. Drye, deputy sher-
iff. She is also survived by two Sis
tiers, Mesdames Josephine Hooker
and Helen Huffman and daughter,
Mrs. w. L. Evans. She was the
widow of DR.. w. S. Drye, who pre-
coded her to the grave a quarter of
century or more. Mrs. Drye was
daughter of Carroll Bailey and
was born within short distance of
where she died, 80 years ago. She
had never lived more than two miles
from Hustonville. Since a child she
had been a member of the Christian
church. In her earlier days she was
a splendid worker in the Masters
vineyard, but during the last decade
conditions were such that she could
give but little time to church work.
But this does not mean that she did
not do the work of a christian, for
no woman tried harder to help 9TH
ers and make others happy than did
the subject of this sketch, whose
passing away brings sadness to ev-
cry heart in the section in which she
lived so long. Her life was an in
spiration to many and her good
deeds while in the flesh will be re-
membered long after the sod has
settled on the grave that marks her
resting place. Truly could it be said
of this excellent woman that "None
knew her but to love her; none
bounded sympathy is felt for the son
and daughter, the brother and Sis
tiers, and the grandchildren, who
loved her dearly. May they find
comfort in the thought that their
loss is their gain and that the gentle
spirit of the Cody woman now
basks in the sunshine of Him who
doeth all things well. Brief SER
vices were held at the home of w.
L. Evans, where Mrs. Drye lived and
died, by her pastor, Rev. A. H.
Baugh, and were continued at the
Hustonville cemetery. The Huston
vile vocal quartette rendered sew
eral beautiful selections, after which
the remains were laid to rest by the
side of those of the husband to await
the resurrection morn.

Latest War News

The British troops in their ad-
vance across the Struma in the re-
gion of Lake Tahinos have driven
the Bulgarians from four villages,
says a London War Office statement
on the operations in Macedonia. The
British also repulsed strong Buiga-
rian counter attacks.
Austrian troops fighting in East
ern Transylvania have been with
drawn further in front of Rumanian
forces, says a offincial statement is
sued from Austro-Hungarian head
quarters. Rumanian attacks north
of Orsova, on the Danube, were re-
pulsed by the Austrians.
The beginning of a great battle in
Southeastern Rumania is reported.
The Russians are said to have taken
the offensive over the entire Dobrud-
ia front, attacking the invading Bull
garians and Germans from the Dan
ube to the Black Sea. An undated
Bulgarian official report announces
important victories for the invaders
in this region. 1t is said the German
and Bulgarian forces have captured
the fortified town of Dobric, or Baz-
ardjik, fifty miles southeast of Buch-
Arrest, and three towns on the Ruman-
ian Black Sea coast near the Bugar-
ian frontier.
Austrian troops have been with
drawn from their positions west of
Csik Szerda, fifty miles north of
Kronstadt, before Rumanian attacks,
says the official Vienna communica-
ton. Heavy fighting continues east
of Halicz, Galicia, the statement adds.

To Vote For Wilson
Casey Republican Will Hit Under
Rooster This Time.
Middleburg, Sept. IL.

MluuIeDurS, sept. Il.
W. G. Raines, of Liberty, who has
been a lifelong republican, tells US
that he will vote for Woodrow Will
son and the whole democratic ticket
this year. Judge Raines was twice
elected county judge as a republi-
can, but says the party has left its
first principles, besides has become
wonderfully corrupt and as President
Wilson has followed the paths of
right and justice, he feels that it is
his duty to support him.
W. I. Moore, who went to Hold
genville on the 4th inst. to see Pres
ident Wilson, was delighted with the
trip, and says he would not have
missed it for many times the amount
it cost him. He has always been an
admirer of Woodrow Wilson, and is
sure now that he did not Over-rate
him. In describing Mrs. Wilson, he
says she reminded him very much of
Miss Ruby Lee Fogle, and by the
way, Mrs. Woodrow would take that
as a compliment if she could see
Miss Ruby Jack Walls drove the
car that carried the party from here
and they went thru with but little
trouble.
The meeting at Green River church
continues with good crowds, but
there have been no additions up to
this writing. Rev. Gabbard is preach
ing some fine sermons and much in
terest is being manifested.
Rev. Chick, pastor of the Baptist
church at Liberty, will assist pastor
K. G.. Martin in a meeting at Grove
so we are told. The meeting will
be held some time in this month.
In conversation with several dem
ocrats while at Liberty Wednesday,
we were assured that the party was
in better fighting shape than ever
before in this county. Senator Chas.
Montgomery's kind and courteous
treatment of Hon. Harvey Helm has
won for him the admiration of ev-
cry one, and put everybody in a
good humor, if indeed anybody was
mad, and the whole push is at work
for the Wilson-Marshall-H tic
ket from head to foot.
We learned while at Liberty We'd
nesday that the notorious Bill Tur-
pin, who has been in Jail for nearly
three years, was fined small sums in
two more cases which will give him
some so days more to board with
Jailer w. T. Brown. Judge j. C..
Carter offered to dismiss those cases
if he, Turpin, would promise to quit
selling whiskey, but Turpin refused
and the cases were tried.
Bill Foley, who did quite a big
boot-legging business here in the
early spring, has been catching it in
the neck at Liberty since circuit
began a week ago. The fines alone
which have been assessed against
him, will keep him in Jail for two
years more, to say nothing of the
Jail sentence attached to each fine.
Bootlegging is dangerous business
to engage in in Casey.

A Ii our forts are but half manned. hose
q about Boston have an average OF less
than 230 men each. Fort Wadsworth,
protecting New York, has a garrison OF about
400 men. and F ort Hamilton about one-third
more.
Unless provision is made in the near

Fear and Mobile" (Rear Admiral Weaver
A short time ago one of the two forts at
Key West, the true key to the Gull OF
Mexico, was manned by a sergeant and his
family. After the death of the sergeant the
widow and her daughter for months formed
the garrison of defence.
General Weaver. Chief Of the Coast Ar
tillery Division. stated in the Senate that we
have 252 l2-inch guns already mounted
without single person to man them, two
l4-inch guns mounted without single man
70 operate them. and thirty-seven 8-inch
guns mounted and useless with no crew,
seventy-one 0-inch guns mounted without a
single man to operate them. Modern guns
are not simple cataputs but complicated
machines. One has to be trained and
skilled to handle them No matter how IN
tel!igent the American citizen, he cannot step
in and at once operate one OF these guns Oft
hand. as men could jump in and operate the
guns of a hundred years ago.
A century ago. the guns used were short
range guns The gunner could look an the
object he aimed at and by sighting over the
gun with his eye, bring the gun into line.
But at the present time gunner manipu-
lstpg even the seven-mile range guns OF our
barbor defences is unable to aim by eye.
AS the gunner looks seven miles out at sea,
he sees only the mast of the ship, very little
of the hull If the ship is ten miles away he
sees no hull at ALL But even if he sees the
entire deck of a great observation-disclosures
600 feet long-by holding cigarette in
front of his eye at arms length the entire
ship is completely shut off from his vision.
The mark to be aimed at, so far as the eye IS
concerned. is less than the size OF a cigarette.
Aiming to-day is the result OF the CO
operation of three corps OF men at three
different places The man down in the pit
firing the gun is unable to see anything
except the sky above him. 10 argue that
an unframed man, even though skilled in
other lines Of mechanics. could step IN and
efficiently handle these guns is as ridiculous
as to argue that man who has never
