In this matter, for thy heart is not

great stress upon the last sentence,
for thy heart is not right in the sight
of God" He spoke of the supremacy
of the church, but above it and ali
others is the Christ. In seeking the
approval of ones actions, the ques-
ton is not what does your compan-

the Christ think. His appeal to the

These meetings are very interesting

CHARITY REWARDED
Mr. !. Barbour Russell Buys Bale Of
Cotton To Help the Southern
Farmers In Time Of Distress
and Gets Handsome
Return.

Cast your bread upon the waters
and after many days IL will return.
At the outbreak OF the great war
when the farmers of the south were
having a hard time to market their
chief commOdity--cotton-- J. Bar
bour Russell, one of Maysville's pub
lie spirited citizens, went to the relief
of those in distress and purchased d
bale Of cotton for $50 through Mr.. 10.
seph Evans, formerly of this city, and
had the bale put in storage, expecting
the storage charges to eat up the pur-
chase.
When the purchase was made he re.
ceived a letter of thanks from the
owner thereof and felt amply repaid
for his benefaction.
Several days ago he was informed
by Mr.. Evans that the bale was still
being held subject to his orders
there was a considerable demand for
cotton at this time and that a pur-
chaser could readily be found. Upon
receipt of this advice his agents were
informed to sell, if it were needed.
Imagine his surprise when he re-
ceived a check this week for $63.65
after all expenses had been deducted
for storage, etc, which he is proudly
showing.
MIR. Russell feels very gratifed to
those who showed their appreciation
in this manner and plans to use the
profits for some charitable cause here
In Maysville.
Mr.. s. P. Browning also purchased
a bale of cotton at the same time, but
his investment did not prove quite as
successful as did Mr.. Russell's.
Truly doth charity have its own re.
ward.

$4,000 POLICY
On Life Of TOwbOat Sam Browns
Captain Blown Out Of His
Pocket Onto Shore.

Accidents have taken queer forms
but the trick of Kismet, circumstance
or whatever it may be best called
which destroyed the life of Captain
l.. G. Blair of the towboat Sam Brown
last week, removed a $4,000 life insur.
ance policy from the captains pocket
and blew it high and dry on the shore
of the river hundreds of feet from the
scene of the tragedy.
The policy, supposed by his relatives
to have been lost or at the bottom OF
the river with the captains body, was
found by Charles Henson, a tenant on
the farm of DIR. II. A. Brandebury
near Chesapeake. Henson took the
policy to the store of Gillen & Hicks
at Chesapeake, and it will soon be re-
stored to the relatives of the unfor-
tunate riverman.
Friends of Captain Blair, whose
home was at Pittsburg, declare that
he always carried the insurance pol
icy in his pocket. The force of the
explosion evidently tore away a part
of Captain Blairs clothing and car
ried the policy ashore.
The papers were practically undam-
aged and had not been in the water,
according to the finder.

of purchasing either the handsome

Secret orders of Maysyille are in
"a prosperous condition, as evidenced
by the handsome homes owned by
least three of them, the two Odd
fellow lodges and the Knights OF
Pythias lodge, and the healthy con.
dition of the Mason lodges of this city
will surely enable them to either buy
or build a home of their own, thus
adding prestige to these already
strong and growing lodges.
Nothing can be more desirable than
a lodge owning its own building, and
this move on the part of the Masons is
a most commendable one and The
Ledger hopes it will 90 through.
