LYCEUM COURSE.

Last year through the efforts of
the Civic League Hayti had a Ly-
ceum Course which was so well
liked that the League contractd for
another course of five numbers for
this year.
This year is the fiftieth anniver-
sary of White and Myers Lyceum
Bureau and by way of celebration
they are sending us better numbers
than we would otherwise receive.
A lyceum course is educational
as well as entertaining. especially
is it educational for High School
students. With this fact in mind,
and in order that all may attend,
the Civic League will admit all High
School students at the same price
as children.

LEE sPENCER's NEW STORE

After several yeas engaged in 9TH
er pursuits Lee Spencer has returned
to the fascination of his first love-
the mercantile business-and this
week opens his new store in the new
Letter building and invites his old
and new friends, and all who will,
to call. Lee has entered business
this time on more definite and deter
mined lines than ever in the past,
and will not be satisfied with any
thing less than success. and his
long reputation for fairness will as.
suredly prove to him valuable
asset.
AS ne tells our readers in his ad
published I'M today's paper every
thing about the store is new-from
floor to ceiling, and every piece Of
goods is fresh from the manufact-
urer and wholesaler. Lee began
early in the summer when there WAS
plenty OF time, to select a choice
line at competitive prices. knowing
full well that in starting in busi-
ness anew he would have sharp
competition to meet, and he feels
that the bargains he derived will
allow him to make prices that will
get the trade. With this aim in
view, he invites the purchasing pub
lie to call and inspect his stock,
and If such investigation does not
convince that his is the right place
it will not be because the goods
and prices are not right.

Grandpa led a noble Christian

Was kind and gentle to all;
He bravely fought the battles

And was ready for the call.
He won the greatest name
On earth that man can win;

Who fought the monster sin.

TIONS OF RESPECT
Of w. j. Clark, who died Nov.

Hampstead County, Ark.

Whereas death has claimed
one of our oldest and one of our
most worthy members of this
church, Brother w. j. Clark,
first we will give a sketch of his
life as written by himself while
in life:
w. j. Clark, son of John C.
and S. S. Clark, was born in
Coweta county, Ca, March 4,
1885, and came to Arkansas in
1847.
He enlisted in the Confeder-
ate army at Washington, Ark,

hills Division, and served in the
Trans-Mississippi Dept. II e
was in the battles of Arkansas
Post, Mansfield and Pleasant
Hill, La, and numerous other
skirmishes. He was watched
over by kind and loving Faith
or and was never seriously
wounded. At the battle of Ar
kansas Post the regiment was
torn up and those that escaped
were put on detach service at
Little Rock. This part of the
regiment was afterwards con-
solidated with the 10Th Arkan-
sas infantry under Col. Hardee,
Gen. Tappan's Brigade, General
Churchhill' Division. He was
captured at Arkansas Post,
making his escape, however and
rejoining his command he SER
we'd until the close of the war,
sur-endering at Marshall. Tex.
being at that time Commissary
Sergeant of his company. With
the exception of a few weeks
spent in the hospital at White
Sulphur Springs, Ark, he was
in continual service until the
close of the war.
After the cruel war was over
and the smoke had cleared
away, he returned to his home
