In the opinion of the Nugget. The Battle Cry of War photo drama, shown at the Dream last night, Is undoubt- edly the finest object lesson of the actual effects of national defenceless- ness that has so far appeared in the city.
 Ordinarily this paper Is opposed to the idea of offering personal testimon- ials of the oft times superb examples of the moving picture art shown at the local playhouses. but the lessons conveyed by the Battle Cry of War are such that we feel that the film should be made accessible to every in : dividual so that everyone could &C., quire an active appreciation of just what war is and what it means to the nation that is unprepared.

The lighting of the city street lights last evening caused a feeling of deep thankfulness to those who have been stumbling home in the deep gloom lately pe,vading the city environs af- ter nightfall and not a few were con- graduating themselves that the city council had not wa,ted to talk mat ters over before having the lights turned on. The contract is still Tn abeyance however, and the lighting of the lamps last night is stated to have been due to an investigation car ried on by the council to ascertain the number of lamps actually required to light the city in a fairly efficient manner. Nothing has been learned as to the results of the investigation or what the report of the committee will be. but it is predicted by some that there is likely to be considerable reduction in the number of street lamps this winter, owing to the inn perative need for retrenchment in the civic establishment.

SUCCUMBS TO PNEUMONIA.

On Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock,
February II, 1917, Mr.. Benjamin
Franklin Powell, widely known and
lifelong citizen of Madison county.
died at his home near Union City.
He had been a sufferer for years
with asthma. The latter part of the
previous week he was stricken with
pneumonia, and he rapidly grew
weaker until death alleviated his suf-
fering, which brought to a close the
life of most exemplary man.
Mr.. Powell was born in Madison
county, January %, 1852, and had just
passed his sixty-fifth milestone when
he was summoned from his earthly
labors. He was a splendid type of
manhood. Kind, gentle and consid-
crate of the feelings of others, he en-
balmed himself in the hearts of those
with whom he met. He was generous
to a fault and a splendid neighbor.
The large concourse at the funeral
was beautiful and loving testimor-
ial of the high esteem in which he
was held by neighbors and friends.
His death has caused those in the
community in which he lived to bow
their heads in grief.
Deceased is survived by his wife,
who before her marriage was Miss
Malissa Dunn, a charming young lady
Madison county; one daughter, Miss
Dola Powell, and one son, Mr.. Louis
Powell, of Richmond, all of whom
have the genuine sympathy of hun
dreds of persons in the great affliction
that has fallen upon them.
The funeral services were held in
the Christian church at Union City
Wednesday morning at 1920 o'clock
conducted by DR.. NJ. T. Chandler, pas
tor of the NJ. f. Church, South, of this
city, thence the burial in the Rich
mond cemetery where large number
of friends gathered to pay the last
tribute of respect to their neighbor
and friend-a true and worthy citizen.
Peace to his ashes.
