Zack Holmes was shot and died almost instantly last Saturday at Girard. It was night and he was talking to a friend. Green Daniel, in front of Mr. W. R. Buxton’s resi dence about 7 o’clock. Who did the shooting is only yet a suspicion, but a close watch is being centered on an enemy of Hoimes living in the neighborhood. Under cover of darkness the assassin crept up very stealthily and discharged a load or shot into Holmes’ left breat over the heart and the victim sank down in death. It is one of those foul murders that come so regularly nowadays in this county and else where that there is hardly any use in comment. It is negro against negro nearly every time and so much impunity follows each mur der that nothing seems to suggest a stopping place. The courts abso lutely do nothing against these de basing occurences. The patience of the people will not last too long before one crime will correct another; of course lynching will be the result.

Mrs. N. P. Thomas in the city yes terday afternoon to commemorate the sad death of Mrs. E. H. Calla way who was the first president of the Margaret Jones chapter of "the Daughters of the Confederacy of this place. After the chapter had been called to order the Lord’s Prayer was re cited by all in chorus. The president of the chanter, Mrs. E. C. Blount, read the following pa per which tells its own impressive story in announcing officially thp death of Mrs. Callaway. Daughters of the Confederacy;— It is my painful duty to announce to you this afternoon the death of one of the charter members,the first president ot the Margarent Jones Chapter, Mrs. Eugenia Callaway. Dead! It Is hard to realize. To look back it seems but yesterday she was here with us. A gentle loving leader, always considerate of the feelings and wishes of others she made an ideal president. From the organization of the chapter to her removal from the city she was ever ready to lilt her hand for the cause she represented. She was faithful, loyal Daughter of the Con federacy. A woman of reserve and quiet mein, one had to come in touch with her to know her and then her noble characteristics, “like lilies pure and white unfold” brought to light. Her death was indeed sad. There was so much in life for her, bounded as it were, with perfect happiness, but— ••Then mightjthey say—these vanished ones— and blessed is the thought! So death is sweet to us beloved, though we may tell you naught, We may not tell It to j ou quick—this mystery of death. The child who enters life comes not with knowledge or intent. So those who e ter death, must go as little children sent— Nothing is known; but I believe, that God Is over head. And as life is to the living,so death Is lo the dead.’’ Would that we could say some little word of comfort to those who are bereaved but how utterly with out meaning are words at such a moment as this. Time, God’s bless ed healer, can alone soften the blow. To God’s gracious care we commend the loving husband, the dear little children, the sorrowing mother and the devoted brother, assuring them of our deepest love and sympathy. This was fallowed by a feeling and appropriate address of Rev. T. D. Cartiedge of the Presbyterian church. In the order of the program Miss Hilton then most beautifully sang that sad but lovely song, “One Sweetly Solemn Thought.” After this the service closed with prayer by Rev. T. D. Cartiedge. is Burke’s time to name the Sena tor for the Seven'eeuth District and desiring to maintain the standaid of our representative: We, the undersigned, earnestly request that you allow the use of your name for Senator, and we hereby pledge you our support for the place.

One of the saddest deaths that has afflicted any: community ,vas that of Ers. E. H. Callaway at Sum merville, Richmond county, on Tuesday evening last. The home is blighted and deso* iated by the blow which fell when there was not a breath of warning. Atound the fireside of this most lovely home now there is nothing but sorrow and bitter tears. For years Mrs. Callaway l’ved here and was one of the most ad mired and beloved women of this community, Her popularity and the enduring admiration of her friends followed her when she went away to live in another community A gentler bred and sweeter char-' aeter never ripened into woman hood. In the very meridian of a flawless life she was suddenly stricken and a young matron honored, re spected and loved by all passed into the silent halls of the great Beyond, leaving the purest memory for all to cherish. Th9 burial services were held at Summerville iu Richmond county, on Thursday morning last and a large number of friends and ac- quaintarces, manifesting their deep sympathy for the family and admi ration for the deceased, attended the last sad rites, many of them were from Waynesboro. The Daughters of the Confedera cy met yesterday and held a memo rial service to her, their first presi dent. The proceedings will appear eisewhere in this issue.

And now comes Jim Ward, tax collector, to run the hog over a lot of fellews. And this is how he does it. When it turned cold last week he killed a hog. Now this is a whop per—we mean the hog of course. It weighed 750 pounds, net. But listen. Each bam weighed 75 pounds, which made 150 pounds of ‘jist bam so.” Off the jowls he casually cut 15 pounds each of of sausage meat and didn’t scraoe the jaw bone by four inches. The hog was so large that when it was knocked on the head it was two hours and a half before the ail found out it was dead. This of course is a fact, as we get it from his records. He claims some figuring that rather rattles us, however when the bacon measured 1700 pounds, out of 750 pound hog. But then we iearned long ago not to doubt a tax collector’s word before our taxes were paid. A Card From Hon. E. B. Gresham Mr.Editor:—Having learned since 1 arrived in Waynesboro to-day that a petition is being circulated asking Hon. W. H. Davis to make tne race for the State Senate and having been told that it i3 because I am not in the race for the Senate but will run for State School Com missioner. I wish to inform my friends that I will not run for State School Commissioner, but wiir run for the State Senate. If elected to the Senate I will make the race for president pro tem, and have been assured by my friends in the House of their support. Very respectfully, E. B. Gresham.

Yes he was always a chip* of un usual intelligence even as infant he showed wonderful apiitnde he knew each member of ibw *umily before he was three months old and could recognize each ooea voice. He spoke distinctly the day he was nine months old. His mmn«r was certain that he did, though she wasn’t sure whether he said “ noth- er, Christmas gift” but any way he said it plain. He wasn’t like other babies any way. He had t. more in telligent expression and skewed as much common sense as an ordinary ctliid five times his age. Any one that had any sense at all could see that be was to ordina ry child. It was easy to sen that he was prodislined to be a gr *»t man, and would no doubt be president of the U. S. notwithstanding the fact ihere wnuid be several iuiL on chan ces against him You were convinced more and more every day that he had a great future before nixo. So there was no use of such a L“- learn ing to do ordinary work, to learn a trade would be a waste o f time and manual labor was fat oeneath him. So when he is cut of school he is left to spend the time as he likes, of course he will use spare time in some way that will be of use to him when he starts on his great career. And thus being left to work out his own grett;. plans it becomes evident before he eigh teen that he has not been idle. He can smoke a half cigaretL- at one pull, inhale the smoke, take a drink of water and then blow the ^moke out afterwards. He can drink a pint of liquor and never feet it, do more tricks with a deck of cards than any boy in towD, his luck when It comes to “crane,” well versed in the latest detective sto ries, and is already handling all his father’s surplus cash, with a growing demand that you are be ginning to wonder how you will be able to supply him. And yon some times catch yourself wondering who will take care of your poor, well meaning but unfortunate boy after you are dead, if he should hap pen to miss the presidency The Cash Concern is sorry f^r you and will do all it can for yon.
