Deaths.
On Friday last, at her home, near Gog
gins, Mrs. M. F. Phinazee, relic of the
late A. J. Phinazee, departed this life.
The deceased had been iu declining health
for some time. She was a noble, good
woman and a faithful Christian. She
leaves several children, numerous rela¬
tives and friends to mourn her death.
The remains were laid to rest in Green¬
wood cemetery.
Sunday evening about five o’clock after
au illness of four weeks from Typlio-ma
larial fever, Mr. W. E. Driskell departed
this life. He was one of our active busi¬
ness men and ranked well in business
circles. lie was in the vigor of manhood
and had the promise of prosperity. Mr.
Driskell had won to himself many friends
and the respect and esteem of the public.
He leaves a widow and three little
children and numerous relatives to mourn
his death. He was faithful, a worthy
citizen, a true man. The funeral services
were conducted by Rev. J. M. Bowden at
the Methodist church, and were well at¬
tended, after which the remains were in¬
terred in the family lot at Oakland cem¬
etery.
On Saturday night about 10 o’clock
Miss Julia, daughter of Captain and Mrs.
William Rutherford, departed this life at
their home in Cullodeu. The deceased
had been slightly complaining for a few
days but no serious apprehension was
felt relative thereto until Saturday night,
when she grew seriously ill. She was in
the beauty and bloom of young woman¬
hood aud had a multitude of friends.
The remains were placed at rest on Sun¬
day in the cemetery at Cullodeu.
The Advertiser extends its warmest
sympathies to these bereaved families.

CHEAP COTTON
And the Low Tariff Makes Cheap
Clothing' at C. J. Zellner’s.
Cotton is cheap, so is clothing. Owing
to the facttliat cotton is dreadfully low in
price and that the farmers are playing in
hard luck, I pvopose to sell my stock of
clothing at cost. My stock of clothing
was manufactured for me by Hackett,
Cariiart A Co., of New York, the largest
and best manufacturers in the United
.States. All first class, nothing shoddy
in my stock; no tariff no profit, no mid¬
dleman, right from first hands. Corne
and see for yourself before buying else¬
where. C. J. Zellner.
Store Burned.
On XVednesday night last about 11
o’clock, the store of Mr. E. T. Winne, in
Culloden, and a negro church near it
were burned. The loss from the store
and stock of goods was about $2,500,
which were partially insured. Up to this
writing we have been unable to learn the
particulars of the origin of the fire. So
glaring were the flames that the light
thereof were plainly seen from this city.
