DEPLoRABLE ACCIDENT.
w. A. Foote Killed.

A Geographic message last Friday
morning conveyed the sad news thai
w. A. (Doc) Foote had been killed
at his sawmill at Lynn, Ala.
1t seems that he was reaching
over the saw to oil some part Of the
machinery. when his sleeve caught
on the saw and in trying to extri-
cate himself his foot slipped and he
fell with the back of his bead across
the saw. He lived only few mo.
ments.
Mr.. Foote was the oldest son OF
Mr.. I. J. Foote, a prominent mer-
chant and citizen of this place, and
was deservedly popular.
The remains were brought to Iuka
Saturday morning and after services
at the Methodist church that after
noon. conducted by Rev. w. W.
Jones. assisted by Rev. w. NJ. Fore,
were inferred in Oak Grove GENE

esteem in which be was held was

GIFTS OUT OF THE ORDINARY
Frying.Pan for Queen vietoria-Man
Gives Wife Five Pounds to
Buy Washstand.

AT HE king OF Siam used to
n send Queen Victoria very
curious gift every Christ
mas. 1t may have been
want of Imagination, or he
may have heard that the frying-pan
was the curse Of the English cook, and
thought they must want constantly
renewing. Whatever the reason, her
majesty received silver frying-pan
as regularly as Christmas came round.
Thomas Carlyle once quite forgot to
buy Christmas gift for his wife.
There Is nothing unique about this.
Other men have done the same. Nor
Is there anything particularly generous
in the way lie made up for his neglect
to remember the day. He wrote the
following letter:
"The prophecy of washstand to
the neatest Of all women. Blessings
on her bonnie face, and be 1t ever
blltllesome as It is dear, bllthe or not.
IT. Carlyle. December 25, 1850"
The great man did really give his
wife five pounds with which to buy
the promised washstand, at which he,
no doubt, washed quite as often as
she did. But that's II man all over.

TREES TOO OFTEN NEGLECTED
Average Citizen is Slow to See Their
Value ard Usefulness to the
Community.

The tree growth on the streets OF the
average American town or city IS
ragged and unkempt in appearance,
while that of the suburb or small vii
lage often is not much better unless
the planting has been done under mu-
nlcipal control, and the paintings on
street have been confined to single
kind of tree. The telegraph, the tele-
phone, the electric light and the trolley
car have added their share toward the
mutilation or destruction of the good
trees that were In existence at the
time of their coming.
Faulty methods of pruning have
caused Disagreement and ruin. "Suc-
cess follows the careful planting of
good trees which are given adequate
protection and timely attention." says
Farmers Bulletin ls0o, Planting and
Care Of Street Trees. issued by the
United States Department of Agr!cul-
ture. Every tree should be trained to
Its proper form while young, SO that Sc

several years.

FAMOUS PHONoGRAPH STAR
HERE SOON.

Thousands, yes millions no doubt
have heard the monograph records
produced by Ada Jones, but few
have had the opportunity now offer
ed the music lovers of not only hear
ing her voice, but actually seeing her
in person. Probably no singer be-
fore the public has such superb
technique at her control, while her
range of voice and ease of express
sion are a constant delight. Miss
Jones brings with her a brilliant
company of Lyceum artists, which in
cludes Miss Mabel H. LOOMS,
soprano. Not only is Miss LOOMS a
soloist, but also an accompanist of
rare ability, and ensemble player of
merit, possessing that sympathetic
understanding which is so necessary
to make two instruments controlled
as by one thought" No concert is
complete without the modern enter
tainer, and Miss Jones has one in
Armstrong, known as sthe man of
mystery. His feats of magic and
amusing anecdotes and series are
always enjoyed. Beth Hamilton is
of he younger school of violinists.
Her work the past season places her
in the front rank. She wins her
audience with her personal charm
and great musical gift.
Ada Jones and her Company will
appear at the Opera House on We'd
nesday, January 18th, s P. NJ, under
the auspices of the Jackson-P Perks
Post of the American Legion.
