Thursday, April 16, 1914. Jasper Has Another Say. Mr. Editor: The will is present with me, but how to perform is the point. Now, gentlemen and fellow-citi zens of Hail County, let’s grab them and put a halter on them and lead them to the legislature. Who are they? Mr. Harve Craig and Mr. Turner Quillian. We don’t want to drive them, but we want to lead them. Hall County has no better stock. Hall County has got a big milk cow on hand. As a rule they churn once a month, and some of the calves need weaning—perhaps got hold of two tits, when one is a big plenty. The farming class of people are getting mighty devilish tired of pulling hay to feed the cow on. Now, we don’t mean to let calves die, but one tit is a big plenty. Now, the farming class of people! know very that Mr. Harve Craig and Mr. Turner Quillian can modify this evil before the cow takes the hollow horn, and perhaps hollow tail, and both have to come off. I talked to Mr. Craig Monday I about ten minutes for the first time I in five months. We talked whatj people generally thought of him and ■ Quillian representing the boys, and 1 he said, “Good gosh, I can't go.” I insisted on him and Quillian to make up their minds and let us know about the matter, and he •aid he would study about it. Mr. Mose Tanner and his friends on the lower side of the county will give the boys a big lift, and we will do the same on this side of the river. Gainesville will knock out the middle man, and the boys are in. That’s all there is to it. Jasper L. Pierce. Ex-jlave Will Test His Right to Inherit. "Washington, April 11. From a ’little farm of 87 acres, owned by John Jones, an ex-slave, in Shelby County, Tennessee, has come to the Supreme Court a question affecting negroes all over the country. The question is whether former slaves are entitled to inherit from their brothers and sisters, who were likewise former slaves. The Supreme Court of Tennessee, | when the present Senator Shields was its Chief Justice, decided that ex-slaves had no inheritable blood. Illinois May Attack Election. Chicago, April 10. —Efforts to pre vent the closing of saloons in many of the Illinois citiesand towns which voted dry at the local option elec tions last Thursday until after the supreme court passes on the consti tutionality of the woman’s suffrage act will be made by the “wets” it was announced today. Complete returns from Tuesday’s elections, showed the votes of the women were responsible for many of the dry victories. The supreme court is expected to act on the suf-, frage act this month. Reserve Banks to Have Capital of $100,000,000. Washington, April 4.—The author ized capital of the new federal reserve banking system will probably be. about sl* 0,000,000 for all the reserve j banks, no matter how many the or ganization committee declares to set up. This fact was apparent tonight when the comptroller of currency is sued figures from the national banks • answering the last call on March 4. j As the statement is the last before j the formal launching of the system, , unless the committee decides today , to make announcements of the dis tricts and cities, the captia’ will be based on it. All in Village Dug Grave for Sexton. 1 MFALL, MO., April 11.—Every man in the little village of McFall, assisted in digging the grave of John Burton, who had dug or assisted in digging every grave in the village cemetery. He never charged for his work, n<r would he accept money for his services. j A little boy was asked why he fell ; out of bed. He replied, ‘"Because T went to sleep too close to where I got in at.” Thar’s the experience of many people who come to church, j They go to sleep, as it were, when they are babes in Christ and back they go into the ways of the world. The great highway is a strait and | narrow, one but the man or woman I with a firm faith and steadfast pur pose can keep therpn to the end and receive the crown at the p-aily gates. Keep your eye on rhe goal. SUPREME COURT RE FUSES BARTOW CAN TRELL NEW TRIAL. Without Executive Clemency He will Hang Date will be Fixed by Judge Jones. The Supreme Court on Tuesday handed down a decision sustaining the lower court in refusing young Bartow Cantrell a new trial. He will be carried before Judge Jones to again be sentenced to hang. It is probable that friends cf Jim and Bartow Cantrell will go before the Governor and ask that their sentence be commuted to life im -1 prisonment. 1 Jim Cantrell is not expected to ! : live, as he is suffering from a com ‘ plication of pleurisy, pneumonia and measles. B Y. P. U. News. The Baptist Young People’s Union of the First church made the occa sion of their quarterly business meet ing last Friday evening a most de lightful one. First there was a short < business session, presided over by I President McEver,with reports from ! all officers; then an address on the B. Y. P. U. Standard of Excellence, by J. W. Merritt; next a mirth-pro voking debate on the question, “Re solved, that there is more pleasure in the pursuit than in the possession lof material possessions;” resulting in a decision for the negative. Those debating were, Misses Mary i E. Cox, Cassie Carter, Florrie Car- ’ ter; Messrs. Gordon Casey, John I Carter, Jr., and J. W. Merritt. At this point the Social Committee took charge and for an hour the* I young people mingled together in | formally, partaking of delightful! refreshments, which had been pre-! pared. | Almost the entire membership of . the Union—about fifty—and almost as many invited guests were pres ent. Their meeting rooms in the church were quite attractive with decora tions of potted plants and spring flowers. The young people are looking for ward with eagerness to the time for their next business and social meet ing. In Memory Os Elisha Crow, who departed this life March 6, 1914. Dear father, how we miss thee! But we know that thou art free from pain and are with angels bing- . ing that holy song. Father, you had never been baptized with water, i but as you lay on your bed of afliic- j tion Jesus baptized you with His love, and I know you are resting, ■sweetly resting in that home so , i bright and fair. Farewell, father, till the ransom morn. If I die like you did, father, I will meet you. It is so sad to see dear mother as she ‘ moves about, laying a loving hand on the tokens of love that you have given her. And she never even smiles. Her loving heart is broken, father, dear, because she is gone. Mother says there is a crown in heaven that has never yet been worn, and the angels came for father to wear this crown. So farewell, father. You have left us five little children who will never more know a father’s love, who will trust in Jesus like you did, and father and all will be jewels in the Master’s crown. This in memory of my lov ing father. Hoke Crow. Letters Uncalled For.

Beautiful Light of the Gospel For with thee is the fountain of Life; in thy light shall we see light—Psalms xxxvi :9 Beautiful light of the Gospel, Oh. hide not thy radiance from me; My faith is so cold and so dreary When tempted to wander from thee. Should the dark billows over me rolling Sweep all of my treasures away, Then lead me beside still waters Reflecting thy glorious array! Beautiful light of thefgospel, Illumine the isles of the sea. And tell them the blessed old story Os Jesus who died on the tree. Then may the darkness be riven By thine own power and might, And thousands receiving.salvation, Will worship thy beautiful light. Beautiful light of the gospel, Oh, what is a life without the! A night with no rapturous dawning: A wreck on the dark rolling sea. Wonderful Star of the morning, Shine down on my soul everbright, And heli> me to lead all the erring Close, close to thy beautiful light!
