Lampasas, Tex,
(By Parlea Spriggs)

One bright Sunday morning I was
surprised to see Rev. Brown and Mr.
Charlie Adams out making calls in
northwest Lampasas. This place is a
good spot where all the colored people
live. About three-fourths of a mile
from the court house we would like
to erect a rock church for this side
of the town. Well, gentlemen, call
again. You are always welcome and
our doors stand ajar.
Sunday was high day in this old
town. Rev. johnson of Waco held his
quarterly meeting and was blessed
with good attendance.
Rev. Brown filled his stand Sunday
and preached three wonderful SER
MONS
Our own good shepherd preached a
grand sermon.
Lampasas is coming Just think of
the good that three colored citizens
and taxpayers Of Lampasas can do.
Messrs. w. W. Doolittle, B. A. Mar
shall and Major Fennell have just had
street lights installed and electric
lights placed in their homes. This
section was formerly known as Dark
town." but it is light city now.
Mrs. Emma Pickett was called to
the beside Of her husband, Grant Pick
ett. This young man has spent most
of his life going from pillar to post,
and we hope he will regain his health.
1t is still very cold here in Lam
pasas.

MAN STABBED AT
WINCHESTER DEPOT

Sidney A. Adams, known as
"Sleepy Sidney" was stabbed with
pocket knife last night by Charles
Fitch, son of Mr.. and Mrs. r. 0.
Fitch. The affair occurred just after
the arrival in Winchester of the c.
& o. train from Lexington, and is
said to have resulted from the ag-
erosion Of Adams in attempting to
force a passage through the crowd in
the narrow aisle Of the train.
Fitch, who was accompanied by
his father, r. 0. Fitch, demonstrated
with Adams, but thought no further
of the incident, he said, until he
found Adams waiting apparently, in
an ugly mood, when they alighted
from the train. According to Fitch,
Adams approached them and struck
R. o. Fitch, using offnsive language.
Fitch then drew his knife and struck
at Adams.
DR.. Browne Ishmael, who treated
Adams, after the occurrence, said the
left lung was affected. The man was
taken to his home on First avenue.
The family recently moved to VIM
chester from the Ruckervdlle neigh
borhood. Young Adams was recently
discharged from army service and
was en- route home from Pennsyl-
vania. He is son Of A. K. Adams.
Young Adams is under Indictment
in Lexington for the theft of an over
coat rom Hughes Spur, and his
case was set for January 5. 1t is not
probable he will be able to be present
Mr.. Fitch is well known and promi'
nently connected here, being the
grandson of Mrs. ]. F. Trumbo, OF

MRS. RIDDELL
CROSSES Divide
An Aged Woman Passes TO the Great
Beyond to Reap the Reward She
So Richly Deserves

Yesterday morning forty minutes
past twelve, Mrs. Lou Riddell, past
four score years, closed her earthly
mission and entered on her rewards.
Her demise was due to the infirmities
of age. She was eldest child Of the
late Charles L. Stewart and was born
in Bourbon county September 9th,
1889.
June, 1850, she was married to
Capt. F. c. Riddell and has been a
widow for eleven years, during which
time her home has been with her sis
ter, Mrs. Richard Mastin in this city.
twenty-five years ago Mrs. Rid
dell moved with her husband from
North Middletown to this city. She
had been q member of the Christian
church for fifty years and was con-
sistent in all her walks and conversa-
tons.
Mrs. Riddell is survived by two
Sisters, Mrs. Richard Mastin, this
city, and Mrs. Lodusky Gatewood,
of Louisville.
Funeral service will take place on
Wednesday morning at 10 A M, at
the home of Richard Mastin, conduct
ed by Rev. Clyde Darsie and Rev. B.
w. Trimble, and burial will take place
in the North Middletown cemetery.
OF this good woman much could
be written, but beauty Of words and
deeds of love are only flowers rare,
which budded and bloomed from her
life of cheer. Her thrill was a happy
contageon that had a responsive
helpfulness from those who lived
under even dark clouds. Such a
woman will be missed here, but all
along her way will be a trace Of the
happy joy character that she was.

1t is stated, authoritatively, that
Hon. John G. VIM, of this city, will
be a candidate for the Democratic

district at the primary election next
August, to fill out the unexpired
term Of the late Judge William A..
Young.
Mr.. VIM is 81 years Of age, is a
graduate of the University Of Viz
ginia and has for many years been
one of the leading lawyers of this

given much time and effort in behalf
of Democratic nominees.
At this time of public unrest the
proper administration of the office
of Circuit Judge is especially i'm
portant to the welfare Of the country,
and the voters of the district are to
be congratulated upon the opportu-
nifty to select man for this office
of the qualifications and fitness Of
Mr.. Vim.
Mr.. VIM enters the race with as
surances of support from leading

trict and it is needless to say that he
