Hatton, of this city, and Adamson is a son of J. M. Adamson, of the Levee. The details of the shooting are meager, but from all that could be learned it appears to be the result of a drunken row.

Mrs. Turley was in her OOth year, and was one of our oldest and most beloved women. She had spent all of her life in our midst and was next to the oldest woman in the county. Mrs. Turley had been a member of the Christian church for nearly seventy years, and at the time of her death was a member of the Sycamore Christian church at Jefferson vi lie. She had always lived the life of a Christian, and was a big hearted and generous woman, always ready to lend the weak a helping hand. She was a daughter of Garrett Davis, who served in Congress for several terms. Two sons, Samuel, of this county, Zack, of Chicago, and one daughter, Mrs. Henrietta O'Rear, of this city, survive her. The funeral services were held at the residence of her son in this county, Monday morning at 10 o'clock, conducted bv Rev. H. D. Clark, burial in Machpelah cemetery. Thus another good Christian woman, a true friend and a kind and loving mother has been called to "Come unto Me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, ,and I will give thee rest." The January term of the Montgomery Circuit Court was brought to a close here Saturday, after a term of four weeks of hard work. The grand jury returned a large batch of indictments, but did not find any clue to the parties who attempted to blow up the Robin son Warehouse. The docket was cleaned of a large number of cases. Five men were sentenced to the penitentiary and sentence was passed by Judge Young on all the prisoners, all under the indeterminate law. The prisoners and time given are as follows: Chas. and Millard Martin and Lloyd Willoughby, from 2 to 21 years, for manslaughter; James Cart-mel- l, for cattle stealing, from 1 to 5 years, and Reuben Durham, for housebreaking, from 1 to 5 years. The first four prisoners are white men and the latter a colored man. DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR Was e. the Progressive Euchre Mr. John S. Herriott Dies in Party of Mrs. J. Will Clay. New Mexico.

At the meeting claims against the city amounting to $2,500 were allowed, and the reports of the officers were received, tiled and accepted. The report of Mr. R. G. Kern, in which he made settlements with all of the officers was also filed and accepted, and the report showed the city to be in excellent condition financially. Several permits for new buildings were granted, among them one to Leslie McCormick for the erection of a large residence. Death of Mrs. Cleora Wood. Mrs. Cleora Wood died at the residence of Mrs. Fannie Reese on East Main street, Monday morning, after a lingering illness of general debility.

A Ilopkinsville County farmer tells the Madisonvillc Hustler that he would be willing to pay as much as $20 or $30 a year for good roads. lie feels that improved thoroughfares would be worth more than that to him and they would. He rightlv says that "the farmers are the ones that should be the most active in pressing the matter because they would reap the benefits." Good roads, it is true, would benefit the farmer immensely, but the benefits do not stop with any one class. Under a systematic plan of improvement there are very few farmers who would have to pay as much as $20 or $30 a year, but where is there a sensible d farmer living on a poorly dirt road, who cannot figure out that he is losing $20 or $30 a year, or more by reason of the lack of good roads? It is a simple proposition in addition which does not renuire the services of a expeit? It can bo demonstrated with a piece of charcoal on the barn door or with the stub of a pencil on a cypress shingle. The farmer more than anybody else, perhaps, needs good roads. Doubtless he loses more money than nnvone by reason of bad roads, but he has no monopoly in that loss. The business man at the country town loses, whether he be merchant, banker, butcher, baker or candlestick maker. Everybody pays in some way a tax for bad roads in a county where there is indifference to improvement. In inain-tainiemath-amatical Com missioner's Sale.

When you come to sift the whole chaff of existence, everything goes to the wind but the happiness we have had at home. All about us arc beautiful homes which are mere pauper houses, so far as happiness is concerned, because of some member of the family who is a pettv tyrant, a nagger, a peace destroyer. not make us Christians, so long as we think mean, uncharitable thoughts of one another and permit our minds to be filled with malice, envy, jealousy, gloom and despondency. Work is a moral and physical uplifter; it is a panacea for sorrow; idleness brings moral decay and furnishes an incentive to crime. The avalanche of crime that is sweeping over our beautiful land is largely due to the fact that too many would rather steal than work. The life of duty, not the life of mere ease or mere pleasure, is the end of life which makes the great men and women. The best prize that life offers is the chance to work at work worth doing. In hours of exuberance and exultation or jovous merriment; in reflective moments when the soul is wept with memories pleasing or plaintive; in the silence of religious meditation; or in our little recesses from the homely duties A word o f encouragement at and commonplace labors of the day, or week, they befriend us the right time i s of more real with their delightful solace, these worth than an ounce of gold.

Sometimes, however, the couple wishing to be married make their own bargain and then it is an interesting business. The young man seeks to meet the darling of his dreams. But how and where are the questions that worry and puzzle him. Often he takes refuge in the home of the evangelist and gets him to write a note for him. He then goes out, cuts a stick and splits it at the top, puts the letter in the split and hurries to get a carrier. When it is delivered he stands around to see how it is received. If it is favorably received a nice pot of food is cooked and sent to him. The parties are then considered engaged. A man can have as many wives as he can buy. I saw one man, a king, who had 40. The marriage feast is a ceremonious affair with the hea then. If the groom is wealthy all of the drums, horns, bells, musicians and dancing masters are hired to do the bride honor. All of the luxuries of the tropics, according to the native ideas, are in evidence at the feast. I have known them to have a hundred pots of food at a single wedding supper. Southern Workman.

Advocate Pnb. Co., Inc. I" S'' .'OSSUM BREEDING. Sir. Lc Soeuf, curator of the Sydney Zoological gardens, has proposed the breeding of opossums in Queensland on systematic lines. The skin of these little furry animals has become so valuable that unless some protection is accorded possums may soon become extinct. Mr. Le Soeuf would select, he says, a site sheltered from the westerly winds, as possums like protection from the cold while they are feeding. They do not like to bo disturbed, either, by the winds shaking the branches while feeding. The land should be fenced with galvanized iron to keep them from climbing or jumping over. six-fo- ol PROTECTION FOR REVELERS. Copenhagen, as in Amsterdam, provision is made for the safe conveyance home of inebriated revellers. When a policeman in the Danish capital finds an intoxicated man wandering at large he places him in a. cab and takes him to the nearest police station, where he is examined by a doctor and then sent home in the cab. The following morning the bill for the doctor and the cab is ecnt to the publican who served the man with his last drink. Ill , WHOOPING COUGH CURE.. "Will you please give mother n nut to put a spider in, as baby's got the whooping cough." This extraordinary request was made to a Tiverton shopkeeper this week by a little girl whose mother believes that if she imprisons a live spider in a nutshell and tics it round her infant's neck the whooping cough will disappear when the spider dies.

C. residence on Willow McCormick, The arrival of the aeroplane has given us a new industry, or rather a modification of an old one, namely, that of manufacturing aviator cord and aviator wire. The Roeblings have devised a special kind of wire aviator cord to be used for stays on aeroplanes. The cord consists of a number of fine wires of great strength stranded together. Tho strength of the different sizes runs approximately from 2,000 to 2,300 pounds. For steering gear a more flexible cord is provided, composed of six strands of seven wires each, with a center of either cotton or wir. The aviator wile differs from aviator cord in that it consists of a single wire instead of a number of wires twisted together. The wire ia made in 12 sizes, with a breaking strength that varies from 2,000 pounds to 175. Scientific American.
