NEWNAN, FRIDAY, AUG. 14.
LOCALS BROUGHT FORWARD.
Mrs. Willie H. Powell, who was
a classmate of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
when they were in college together at
Rome in their girlhood days, attended
the latter’s funeral in that city Tues
day. Other classmates present at the
obsequies were Miss Anna Harris, Mrs.
Thomas Fahy and Mrs. H. B. Parks, of
Rome; Mrs. Beau Thomas and Miss
Sena Towers, of Marietta; Mrs. Harry
L. Schlesinger and Mrs. John Wing
field, of Atlanta.
Among the numerous floral offerings
displayed at Mrs. Woodrow Wilson’s
funeral at Rome on Tuesday last, and
one of the few carried into the church
with the casket, was a beautiful wreath
formed of magnolia leaves contributed
by Sarah Dickinson Chapter, D. A. R.,
of this city. The wreath was design
ed and put together by Mrs. W. C.
McBride, whose artistic taste was
never more prettily displayed, and we
understand it was much admired.
How doth the busy candidate now
greet thee with a smile, as traveling
o’er the dusty road he raiseth dust the
while. How doth he seek the doubtful
vote and point with anxious pride to
records made in service past; (naught
would he seek to hide.) Or p’raps
he claims ’tis his turn now to reap the
county’s cash, and to dispute the in
cumbent's claim he thinks is wise—not
rash. And so, through morning’s early
air, or ’neath the blazing sun—all up
and down and round about the candi
date will run.
The body of Mrs. J. T. Stilwell, of
Montezuma, whofdied Sunday morning
at an Atlanta sanatarium, was sent Sun
day afternoon to Montezuma for fu
neral and interment. Deceased is
survived by her husband and nine
children. Mrs. Stilwell was a sister of
Mr. E. H. Powers, of our town, and
was reared here by the late Mrs. C. A.
Greene. She will be pleasantly re
membered by her old friends and school
mates as Miss Tommie Powers, and a
most excellent lady. Mr. Powers ac
companied the body to Montezuma.—

Death Claims Mrs. J. L. Barge.
After a long and baffling illness,
covering a period of nearly four months,
Mrs. J. L. Barge passed away at 7
o’clock Sunday morning. Although a
great sufferer throughout her illness, it
was some measure of comfort to her
loved ones that her last hours should
have been peaceful and painless.
Mrs. Barge was a good woman, and
a useful member of the community.
She was a devoted wife and mother,
who "looked well to the ways of her
household,” putting the welfare and
happiness of her family above all world
ly affairs. Deeply attached to her
church and active in promoting its en
terprises, she will be sadly missed by
her co-workers in that noble cause.
Deceased was 49 years of age. Be
sides her husband, Dr. J. L. Barge, she
leaves four children—Mr. Chas. Barge
of Albany, Aurie and Itobt. Barge and
Miss Mary Barge, of this city. Other
near relatives are her aged father, Mr.
M. C. McConnaghy, and a brother, Mr.
C. W. McConnaghy, both of Holdrege,
Neb.; and another brother, Mr. R. C.
McConnaghy, of Cincinnati, O.
The funeral was held Wednesday
morning, at the Presbyterian church,
services being conducted by her pastor,
Rev. J. E. Hannah, after which the
body was laid to rest in Oak Hill ceme
tery. A number of handsome floral
tributes, as well as the large concourse
of sorrowing friends at the obsequies,
testified to the esteem in which the
good woman was held in the community.
Lola, aged 5, was being shown her
twin brothers who had been born the
night before. Gazing upon them re
flectively she remarked:
“Well, 1 never saw such a woman as
mamma for hunting bargains.”
HAVE PRETTY
Thick, Soft, Fluffy, and no
Dandruff-Use Parisian
Sage.
If your hair is losing its natural col
or, coming out and splitting, or lacks
that enviable softness, gloss and beau
ty, do not despair—pretty hair is large
ly a matter of care. If it is too thin
make it grow. If it is harsh and
brittle soften it up—lubricate it. If
you have dandruff it is because the
scalp is too dry and flakes off. Freshen
up the scalp with Parisian Sage —all
dandruff disappears, falling hair and
itching head cease, your hair is doubly
beautiful.
Parisian Sage, sold by John R. Cates
Drug Co. and all drug counters, is just
what you need —a large bottle costs but
50c. It surely makes the hair lustrous
and seem twice as abundant. You can
not be disappointed in Parisian Sage.
Strange Death of a Popular Young
Man.
Mr. Frank Hubert, a most estimable
and popular young man of Newnan,
died Sunday morning, after an illness
of about twenty-four hours. He retired
Friday night apparently in his usual
health and spirits. Failing to appear
at his place of business Saturday morn
ing, inquiry was made concerning him
at the private home where he had
lodgings. Entering his room, he was
found lying on his bed in a deep stupor,
and, alf efforts to arouse him proving
futile, physicians were called in to at
tend him. They worked over him al
most constantly until midnight, but did
not succeed in reviving him. At 3
o’clock Sunday morning he died, never
having regained consciousness. A
brother at Augusta was notified of his
condition Saturday afternoon, and he
arrived Sunday morning. The corpse
was placed in a casket and carried to
Harlem, Ga., Mr. Hubert’s former
home, where the funeral and interment
took place Monday. Several Newnan
friends accompanied the remains as far
as Atlanta.
Physicians attending the young man
were unable to determine the cause of
his death, which is regarded as a most
peculiar one.
Mr. Hubert was 27 years of age. He
came to Newnan about four years ago,
and easily made friends with our young
people, with whom he was quite popu
lar. For some time before his death
he had a position with Manget-Brannon
Co., and was held in high esteem by
his employers.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson Laid to Rest
at Girlhood Home.
Rome, Ga., Aug. 11.--Mrs. Woodrow
Wilson, wife of the President, was
buried at Myrtle Hill cemetery here to
day. Her grave is beside those of her
father and mother, almost within sight
of the house in which she lived as a
girl. To-night the President was speed
ing eastward on his return to Washing
ton.
Although thousands of visitors came
to Rome to-day to do honor to the mem
ory of Mrs. Wilson, a Sabbath-like
quiet was maintained. The special
force of police, augmented by members
of the National Guard, found little to
do beyond warning traffic from the
streets through which the procession
passed.
It was exactly 2:30 p.m. when the
President’s special arrived, and a few
minutes later the casket, covered with
gray broadcloth ami surmounted by a
single wreath of flowers, was lifted
from the funeral car by eight of Mrs.
Wilson's cousins and borne to the
hearse. As the train steamed slowly
into the station, church bells through
out the city were tolled solemnly. A
wide space had been cleared about the
station, and the thousands of people
assembled there stood back respectful
ly, fearful lest they should break into
the sorrow of the family.
The President, followed by Secretary
and Mrs. McAdoo, Mr. and Mrs. Sayre,
Miss Wilson, Prof. Axson and other
near relatives and members of the par
ty, quickly left the train and entered
their carriages. The Jproeession then
moved through hlack-draperj streets to
the First Presbyterian church. More
than 800 relatives and friends of the
Wilson and Axson families were al
ready gathered in the quaint little
church which Mrs. Wilson used to at
tend when her father, Rev. Edward S.
Axson, was pastor there. The church
was draped in black, with entertwined
wreaths of white flowerB. On one wall
was a white marble tablet to the mem
ory of Mrs. Wilson’s father. Banks of
flowers were piled high about the cata
falque upon which the casket was
placed.
As the President entered, following
the casket, Chopin’s funeral march was
played softly upon the organ. A sim
ple. short service was conducted by
Rev. G. G. Sydnor, the local pastor.
HAPPY MOTHERHOOD
Thehappinessof motherhood istoooften
checked because the mother's strength is
not equal to her cares, while her unselfish
devotiou neglects her own health.
It is a duty of husband or friend to see
that she gets the pure medicinal nourish
ment iu Scott's Emulsion, which is not
a drug or stimulant but nature’s con
centrated oil-food tonic to enrich and en
liven the blood, strengthen the nerves and
aid the appetite. Physicians everywhere
prescribe Scott's Emulsion for over
worked, nervous, tired women; it buikls
up and holds up tlieir strength.
Get Scott's at your nearest drug store.

No. 19
The President, his daughters, Secre
tary McAdoo and Mr. Sayre occupied
the front pew in the center, and back
of them were other members of the
family, Dr. Grayson and Secretary
Tumulty. Two old-faBhioned hymns,
girlhood favorites of Mrs. Wilson, were
sung by the church choir. Rev. Dr.
Sydnor then read briefly from the
Scriptures Bnd spoke of the beauty and
charity of Mrs. Wilson’s life and charac
ter.
As soon as the church service was
ended the casket was carried to the
waiting hearse and the journey to
Myrtle Hill cemetery was begun.
School girls, dressed in white and hold
ing aloft laurel branches, stood in line
along either side of the streets through
which the procession passed. Behind
them were thousands of people, with
bared heads bowed, silent and sorrow
ful. The entire city was draped in
funeral black in honor of the sad oc
casion.
S. G. McLendon for Railroad Com
missioner.
Albany Iicrald. 8th inst.
At the eleventh hour Hon. S. G. Mc
Lendon’s name was entered for a place
on the State ticket as a candidate for
Railroad Commissioner, a position he
formerly held and for the duties of
which he proved to be well qualified.
We shall vote for him.
And there are thousands of good men
throughout the State who will be glad
of the opportunity to vote for him for
this position.
During his former service on the Rail
road Commission, Mr. McLendon dis
played a masterful knowledge of corpo
ration law and of the intricacies of rail
road rates, and the details of their ap
plication as well, and at no time since
the Commission was created has it had
a member so well equipped for its du
ties.
No fair-minded man will question Mr.
McLendon’s ability or integrity, and, as
we have already said, many will be glad
of an opportunity to restore him to the
position in which he exercised peculiar
fitness and rare qualifications.
