A SAD EVENT

Last Tuesday evening was the scene of very sad occurrence in the vicinity of Social Hill. MT. Walter Nichols eight months old baby was found drowned in a keg of water. The mother set the child on the front porch to be entertained by the things of nature while she went about her household duties. She instruct led her older daughter, who was raking leaves in the front yard, to watch the child. Soon the lit tie girl, not hearing the little child's prattle, looked up to her horror, saw the feet of the child sticking up out of the keg of water. She gave the alarm and soon a host of friends had collected. pr. Hardy and loving friends did all that was in their power to restore the child to life, but to no avail.
 The remains, followed by sorrowing relatives and friends, were carried to DeRoche ceme- tery, the next day, for burial.
 The following lines will, no doubt, express to a certain extent the feelings and prayer of the sad parents.
 Oh, dear little children above
 Just lent to us for a season God in His infinite love
 Hath taken you home for some
 reason
 Thou hast left our hearts bleeding
 with grief
 Whilst thy precious little soul is at
 rest.
 's-es- ='es-vsv~'vs#vsss5' Lord, teach us thy mercy to see
 In this our sad hour of distress, How joyful our home has been made
 By thy childish mirth and glee, How warm our hearts have ben made
 By thy childish love so free. w. ss's's ssssessssSs Lord. help us our grief to bear And at last meet our dear one above, And like her crown to wear With the blest in that bright land of love.

 The death angel visited the home of MT. and Mrs. A. w. Thornton on the 27th and took from them their darling boy age 24. It is hard to part with those we love but Gods will be done, not ours. They have lost a precious jewel. He has bid them all adieu. He has gone to live in Heaven, and has passed from our view. Oh that dear one, how they loved him, oh, how hard to give him up. But an angel came down for him and removed him from the flock

 MT. Kitchin, who supervised the House revenue bill and passed it through that body, likes 1t, and would be happy if the Senate would accept it just as 1t is. He says the President feels the same way about 1t.
 But the Senate is obdurate. It has revenue ideas of it's own. and has re- moved It's coat for the purpose of talk ing the Kitchin bill apart and making 1t look like something new.
 Mr. Underwood and MT. Kitchin are the best of friends They are also demo- crats of the same school of tariff thought. Four years ago they were working together. MT. Kitchin was MT. Underwood's principal assistant in the preparation of the Underwood tariff bill.

 tariff and kindred subjects He owes his rise in Congress and his influence in national affairs to his interest and activities in economies. He has achieved the distinction of giving his name to a tariff law-something a national legis- lator is always proud of. Remember the Morriss tariff, the Mckinley tariff, the Gorman-Wilson tariff, the Dingley tariff, the Payne tariff; and now there Is the Underwood tariff-all in 5O-odd years. Four years ago Mir. Underwood as a
 member of the House piloted through that body the tariff bill the construction of which he had supervised He thor oughly approved of the work, as did

 to undo a great deal of what he had done.
