A TOUCHING SCENE.
The following extract was clip

The Following extract was clipped
from one Of our exchanges:
while Paris. KY, was celebrating
the signing of the peace treaty, Aunt
Melinda Mckinney, an aged negro
woman, dropped TO her knees in front
OF the First National bank and
prayed a long oId-fashioned Method
ist prayer, thanking the Lord for end
ing the war so that her soidie, boy in
Germany might come home. Traffic
was blocked in both directions, but
the police refrained from interference
and she finished her prayer. Hun
dreds stood with bowed heads while
she prayed, and many eyes were wet
with tears"
All of which indicates that there is
pathetic as well as a triumphant
side to the return of peace. What
human heart would not have felt
touched at this old negress' pious
gratitude over the prospect of having
her boy restored to her? But what
undoubtedly added to the solemnity OF
the occasion for those who witnessed
this simple manifestation OF devotion
was the reflection that there were
nearly $4,000 boys who went out from
American homes never to return.
There are probably that many moth
ers who could not Join in this duslSy
matron's thanksgiving.
And that is what war means. II is
glorious to win mag nificent triumphs
for God. home and native land, but oh
what sorrows It brings even to the
victors! America suffered less per-
haps than any other belligerent in the |
horrible butchery. yet nearly 100000
of her bravest and best are either
lead. injured or missing. Some trag-
sdy. wasn't It? Then think of what
I was for those who were in IL from
he frstl Won't we all rejoice to-
,ether when peace, sure enough
,eace. is again restored.

Editor Daily Register:
Dear Sir -
There was mistake in the to-
bacco sales of J. L. Coffey and

Madison warehouse columns in
stead of the Home House. Fur
thermore, 1.430 pounds of the
same crop was sold on the Madi-
son house breaks. The tobacco
at both houses was grown on the
same ground and housed in the
same barn. The Madison house
floor average was 1882. There
was 2,875 pounds on the Home
House breaks; the average was
$9l.50. We wish you to publish
this and make the correction. II
any charges send to ]. L. Coffey
anr Son, at Newly. We wish to
do every man justice. There is
nothing like Home to us. Yours
