Among these is to walk ou tbe railroad track, t) attempt to get on a moving train, to put bis name on another naan’s note, to keep his savings in an old stock Ing under his bed, to play a game of chance with a prepossessing stranger, to run for office when he has a paying situa tion in private life, to call a bigger man than himself a liar.

The Funeral ef Mrs. Grantland The funeral of Mrs. S. Grantland was held yesteaday morning at St. George's church, with the impressive ceremonies of tbe Episcopal denomi nation. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers, the coffin be ing placed upon a raised bed of bloa some and foliage. The favorite hymns of tbe deceased were suDg at the church, "Lead, kindly light,‘‘ “Jesus, savior of my soul," and “Asleep in Jesus;*' at the cemetery, “Abide with me." The following gentlemen acted as pall bearers: T. J. Brooks, J. M, Brawner, J. P. Hammond, T. R Mills, W. C. Becks, Thos. Nall, A. C. Sorrell, D. W. Shaffer, J. M; Mills. The character of Mrs. Grantland wan such as to endear her to all class es, even to those who only knew har slightly, ADd the church was filled, whita a i ong procession of carriges followed followB( , th0 the body bo dv to to it8 its long long rest rest ing place. Mrs. Grantland was in deed a lady of the most estimable and ideal qualities, ^cultured and at tractive, generous and hospitable, kind and charitable to the poor. Bat consumption had seized for ila own, aud she died in the mid way of life, leaving a desolated hue band and children and a sorrowful circle of friends. Her end was peace ful after a wasting illness. The Grantland Club and the of fices and factory of tbe Griffin Mann acturing Company were closed dar ng the funeral. “N*ver (fire op the ship,” cried Lawrence. He saved the ship, and he was at once a hero. So we say:—Never jive up your life when attacked by dyspe psia until you have tried Laxador. Wliat in tha best remedy for the baby?

In doing bo he in close contact with Carmichael had his ax raised in the act of it fall upon the tree. Without cation whatever he deliberately turn •d the axe in its descent, and Gresham a terrible blow in the head. This stunned Gresham and iell upon his back dead, it is ed, before he reached the Not being satisfied with his d tardly deed, this fiend in shape, stepped nearer to his and struck him another blow the back of his head, scattering brains upon the ground. gathering up the weapons of dead man he turned upon his convicts, who were by this time lyzed with fear and threatened kill them if they did not escape him.

Some time ago the Rev. IT. B.
