MRS ]. p. TAiIAFERRO.

The Florida Times-Union of May Attn,
has the following obituary Of prominent
summer resident of Belfast; Mrs. Mil
licent Jessie TsliateTro, beloved wife OF
James P. Taliaferro, entered into life
eternal on Wednesday morning May 8.
shortly before noon.
Mrs Taliaferro was the daughter of Mr..
William Jarvis Hardy and Mrs Anna
Trueblood Hardy of Norfolk, Va, where
she was born. and where she was married
to MIR. Taliaterro fifty years ago on the
fifteenth day of November last. Jackson
vile having been their home during their
entire married life.
OF her immediate family surviving her,
beside her husband, are her children, Mrs.
Archer Stanford Hubbard and Mrs. Ed
ward Wool Lane, and her grandchildren,
James Taliaferro Lane and Edward Wood
Lane, Jr., all of this city.
With the death of Mrs. Taliaferro, there
is removed from this community one OF
its noblest and most prominent charac-
ters.
To personality of rare beauty and ele-
gance there was added a grace and charm
of manner, which was the outward ex-
preston of loving heart and of unfailing
charity.
Representing, as she did, the finest type
of Christian womanhood, living as she
did under the influence of quiet and
steadfasti faith, ami perfect trust in God,
she made that influence felt in upholding,
by word and example, the purest tradi-
tions of family and social life and left
tor her family and friends noble example
of devotion to the things that re held to
be high and true among men.
Throughout a painful illness endured
with patience and courage, her thoughts
and words constantly turned to the com
fort of her Christian faith that had su-
stained her through life and gave hel
peace at its end.
| To those who knew and loved her sh,
was beautiful in her life and in death tina
beauty has not departed from her.
"Death hides, but he cannot divide,
Thou art but on Christ's other side.
Thou art with Christ, and Christ with me
And thus united still are wei"

MRS. JENNIE STEVENS PUsHOR

The sudden transition to the higher
life of Mrs. Jennie s. Pushor, wife of
Lewis Pushor and daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Joseph F. Stevens of Unity, casts
shadow of sadness and regret over the
entire community and town in which she
lived Mrs. Pushor was seriously i'll only
a few days when a surgical operation was
considered her only chance of life. The
operation was performed on Monday,
Feb. 20, and the following day her death
occurred She leaves besides her hus-
band and parents a little boy, aged one
and one half years, also one brother,
Maurice Stevens of Waterville. Jennie
was a general favorite with all and had
many friends who will regret to learn OF
her sudden death. Funeral services
were held at her home by Rev. Thomas
Martin of Brooks. The many beautiful
floral tributes from her relatives and
friends expressed the high esteem In
which she was held. Her age was 81
years. Much sympathy is extended her
husband and parents in the untimely loss
of one who endeared herself to many by
her sympathetic and genial nature.
Faithful and industrious in her home and
family she will he greatly missed. 1t
seems indeed sad that one so m Ich need
ed and in the morning of life should be
taken from the earth, but wiser hano
than ours pours out this portion Tor our
lips to drink, and so
We cannot say, and we will not say,
That she is dead, she is just away.

First S1,OOO,OOO Photoplay
Elaborate Sets and Huge Crowd Scenes
Swell Cost.


For magnitude and vast expenditures OF
money, Universafs masterpiece, "foollsh
Wives" directed by Erich Won Stroheim,
is far in excess of any previous photo
drama ever conceived.
This production actually cost more than
one million dollars and has been over
year in the making, but contrary to many
so called "million dollar productions,
the expenditure in both time and money
in ''Foolish Wives" will be apparent on
the screen, as may be seen here next

ed at the Colonial Theatre.
A recent analysis of the cost of the
production shows $400,U as the con-
struction cost for the sets used. The
replica Of Monte Carlo built at Monterey
is estimated at S120, 900; the magnificent
group of buildings erected at Universal
City to show Monte Carlo from the land
side cost $3.50, 600, and an Italian villa
with its surrounding grounds cost S25, 0OO.
Fifteen interior sets of unusual splendor
cost 500, 900.
More than 325, 900 square feet of lumber
was used in construction work at an ap-
proximate cost of SIS per thousand feet
In addition to this, many new stages had
to be built to contain the huge settings.
The entire expense of the production
was almost equally divided between con-
struction cost on the settings and the ex-
pense of keeping the vast army of play
ers, assistant directors and extra people
necessary for the picture. There were as
