MRS. LIZZIE LOWERS
ACCIDENTALLY KILLED.

Mrs. Lizzie lowers, aged 26 years,
wife of Bennie lowers and daughter
of Alex l.. and Martha Elizabeth Jow-
ers, was the victim of one of the most
horrible tragedies ever known in this
county, at her home near Alberton,
about five o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
Her son, Fleetwood, aged about five
years, while playing with his fathers
single barrel shot gun, which neither
he nor his mother knew was loaded,
playfully pointed the gun at his moth
er and pulled the trigger, load of
No. 3 shot being discharged and en-
tering her side from a distance of My
about 2la feet. She was on the out
side of the front yard fence sweeping
trash from about the gate. The little
boy was in the yard and placed the
gun on the fence. The husband, Mr..
lowers was in Lexington on business
when the tragedy occurred.
The mother screamed when shot,
fell to the ground and quickly expired.
The noise of the gun together with
the screams of the mother and two
children, who were alone at home, at
tracted the attention of two men pass
ing in nearby field. They came to
the scene, found the mother dead and
quickly gave the alarm to the neigh
bors and relatives.
The entire community is Mortified
over the deplorable accident and the
children, husband. aged parents and
brothers of the good woman have the
universal sympathy of the people.
She was a member of Mazie's Chapel
Baptist Church and accounted one of
the best women in her community.
Largely attended funeral services
were held Wednesday afternoon at 2
o'clock at the Lindsey graveyard near
her fathers home, conducted by Rev.
Fleetwood Ball. Interment beside the
grave of her little brother in the fam
lily plat.

DIR. AMBROSE mccoy DEAD.

DIR. Ambrose Mccoy, aged but 81
years, died at his home in Jackson
at an early hour on the morning of
December 26th, 1920. DR.. McCoy's
death was rather sudden and caused
by heart failure but he had been i'll
for some time again. In the death of
DR.. Mccoy Jackson loses one of its
best citizens and West Tennessee one
of its most eminent physicians. We
knew him for thirty years and can
testify that through all the years
since that time Jackson has had no
better loved man in any trade or pro-
fession. Following the death of DR..
Mccoy visitors to Jackson were
struck by the fact that the people of
that city lamented his loss first as a
man and citizen, notwithstanding they
were proud Of his fame as a physi.
clan and surgeon jackson has other
fine physicians but to fill the place Of
DR.. Ambrose Mccoy viii test the
ability of any man Of that profession

RICH PARISIANS PAY
TAX ON SERVANTS.

Since the new assessment law has
been put into effect, we sometimes
think that we pay an enormous tax,
but listen to this:
Paris, Jan. From today every
Partisan who owns a piano or keeps
a servant must pay an extra tax for
the privilege. That was the new years
gift of the city fathers to constitu-
ents passed yesterday at a special
session, at which they endeavored to
fix the budget for the coming year.
Between upright and grand pianos
they make a subtle distinction, and for
some reasons known only to them
selves the latter will cost 60 francs
a year, twice as much as the former.
Harmonicums are also scheduled at
thirty-franc rate, while organs will
cost 60 francs year to their awners.
To add to the difficulties and ex-
pense of the servant problem, the
householder has also to pay 40 francs
for each woman servant he employs
and so francs for the privilege of hav-
ing footman or butler.
So far, resentment against these
new proposals has not shown itself
on the taxpayers. They have become
reconciled to the envitable. But do
mestic helps of all sorts have shown
a disposition to resent the fact that
they should become taxable. Their re
sentiment which has found expression
in a meeting Of their trade union, is
not however, so much based on the
fact that they will become more ex-
pensive to their employers, who may
show a disposition to deduct the tax
from their wages, but to the slight Of
ones self respect in being classed
with pet dogs and pianos among the
Injuries of the idle rich.

EVERYBODY WANTS TO
HELP THE FARMERS

A campaign will be begun at once
throughout the South to raise an ad-
ditional $3,O00,000 required to COM
plete the $10,000,000 proposed to be
secured for the Federal international
products. In this supplementary
drive, Tennessee banks are expected
to take $1,000,000 of the required
stock and state campaign will be
started Immediately to consummate
that end.
Thomas r. Preston, campaign
chairman for Tennessee, has called on
the old organizations to assume this
new work and has appointed chair
men for congressional districts rs fol-
lows: First, j. w. Lynn, Bristol;
Second, R. E. Mooney, Knoxville,
Third, j. P. Hoskins, Chattanooga;
Fourth, Walter Ferrelb Lebanon;
Fifth, R. E. Feeney, Fayetteville;
Sixth, E. A. Lindsey, Nashville;
Seventh, Pit Henslee, Dickson. The
three remaining congressional dis
tricts will be handled through the
Memphis office.
Word of the plans of the new cam
paign were brought from New Or
leans by H. G. Huddleston, secretary
of-the Tennessee Bankers Association
who has just returned from a meeting
of the secretaries of Southern bank
ing associations held there to consiG-
er the matter. 1t was decided that the
campaign be begun at once.
The Federal International Banking
Company has been chartered and will
begin work Jan Z. The original stock
subscription of $6,OOO,OOO Vas over
subscribed by Southern banks by ST.
100000. Determination to increase
the original sum to be raised to $10,-
100000 has made the drive now be-
ginning necessary.
Letters are now being mailed out to
Tennessee banks which, have not als
ready subscribed to the fund and inn
ln1ediate results are anticipated.
At special committee Is now engag-
ed in considering organization mat
ters and the selection of the executive
personnel for the operation of the
'corporation in this state.

URGES THE FARMERS TO
HOLD THEIR COTTON.

Thomas ]. Heflin, junior United
States Senator from Alabama, when
on his way to Washington, last Sat
urday, at Montgomery gave out an
interview in which he pleaded with
the farmers to continue to hold their
cotton a little longer and predicted
a rise in prices would start before the
end of the month of January.
Senator Heflin said he would favor
a temporary embargo on agricultural
imports if necessary to relieve the
farmers, and said that he would vote
for the bill reviving the war finance
corporation over President Wilson's
veto if he should veto it.

DUR0C MARKET TO
OPEN JANUARY II.

Memphis, Tenn, Jan 1.-Southern
farmers who contemplate engaging in
the livestock business as a part of the
safe farming system for 1921 and
thereafter, will have an opportunity
this month to buy Dureo Jersey
breeding stock of unexcelled merit on
the Southern sales circuit, January II
OF 21. Announcement has ben made
that the five leading Duroc breeders
included in the circuit have arranged
to place some of their choice sows on
the auction block.
Special inducements will be made to
Southern farmers through an ar
rangement to accept bankable notes.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
livestock market has slumped badly
within recent months, it is expected
that buyers from many Northern
states will attend the Southern sales
in quest of good breeding animals.
Eperts assert that the future Of
the live stock industry is very big and
bright and for that reason the current
quotations for hogs at the central
markets will have little, if any effect
in bidding for fine breeding stock.
The duroc breeders and buyers will
gather at the Peabody hotel on Sun
day, January 10th. The following
morning special pullman train viii
leave for 'Brihkley, Ark, where the
Brinkley Duroc Farm will hold its
sale. Returning to Memphis that
night the party win move Tuesday,
January 18th, to Duntreath farm at
Forresthill. From here the party will
go to Charleston, Miss, where Pine
Crest farm will offer 40 choice sows,
Wednesday, January 10th. The party
will then go to Columbia, Miss, to at
tend the sale at Whites farm on
