Congressman Lewis, of the
third distrust, introduced a batch
of general and speoial bills today,
many of them ot particular inter
est to Geogians.
One of his bills of general im-
der hands we laid away to awa
the great judgment day while
his pure spirit took its flight to
bivouac in the elysean fields.
Our brother removed with his
father’s family from South Caro
lina and settled near Perry in
1851. He at once connected him
self with this Sunday Sohool and
was a regular attendant and faith
ful to every duty. In March,
1861, when the alarm of war was
sounded, he promptly offered his
services to his country and went
immediately to the front and re
mained the entire four years of
that immortal struggle, surren
dering on April 26th, 1865, at
Greensboro, North Carolina .with
General Joseph E. Johnson’s ar
my.
As a soldier under the stars and
bars he was ever faithful and
true. Whether on the field of carn
age, or the tented field or around
the fireside camp, he was ever
ready to' answer the bugle’s oall
and Btand in his place.
After the close of the war he
was married to Miss Belle Martin,
who preceded him to the spirit
world several years, leaving one
son.
Our brother lived in Tennessee
several years, but he longed for
his old haunts and friends in
Georgia, and returned to Perry
in 1889, where he has since resid
ed.
Uncle “Alf,” as he was famil
iarly called, was one of God’s no
blemen, he was a Christian gen
tleman, a man without guile, al
ways cheerful and happy. He was
peculiarly free from thedetestp,
ble habit of speaking evil of his
fellowB; if he could not speak
kindly he refraiud from speaking
In the latter years of his life his
frail barque was often driven by
unfriendly winds, but never
murmur escaped his lips, though
he was shut in two months on a
bed of suffering before his release.
Farewell brother, we expect to
meet you again.
Therefore be it resolved: 1st
that in the death of Brother
King this Sunday School, church
and community, have lost a true
and valued member and his loved
ones a loving friend.
2nd That a blank page in our
Sunday Sohool minutes be dedi
cated to the memory of this pure
aud spotless brother.

self is the price of a mistake, but
you’ll never be wrong if you take

It is announced that Mr. Ruth
Bryan Levitt, the artist who mar
ried William Jennings Bryan’s
daughter, is going to settle at Hu
maneville, Mo., and run fdr con
gress on the republican ticket.
Did Mr. Bryan know that he was
patronizing a goldbug when he
employed Mr. Levitt to paint his
picture, or that he was permitting
one to marry into the family?

The Panama canal treaty will be
sent to the Senate for ratification
about Deoember 16th, It will no
doubt be approved, as the democrats
will not take advantage of their
power to prevent it. There will no
doubt be muoh debate on the sub
ject, and it will begin immediately
after the passage of the Ouban bill.
The methods of the administration
in bringing about the treaty will be
more discussed than the treaty,
which gives this oountry all the
oonoesBions desired. The prompt
ness with which the treaty was rati
fied on the Isthmus shows that the
people of Panama realize that with
out the help of the people of the
United StateB they would be abso
lutely at the mercy of Oolombia, and
also (hat the present American gov

Fight Will Be Bitter.
Those who will persist in closing
their ears against the continual
recommendation of Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption,
will have a long ahd bitter fight
with their troubles, if not ended
earlier by fatal termination. Read
what T. R. Beall, of Beall, Miss.,
has to sayjaboutit : “Last fall my
wife had every symptom of con
sumption. She took Dr. King’s
New Disoovery after everything
else had failed. Improvement
came at once and four bottles en
tirely cured her.” Guaranteed.
Price 50c and $1. Trial bottles
free at Holtzclaw’s Drugstore.
One of the oddest carloads of
freight that has gone through Au-
gustd, Me., recently was one com
posed of live geese. They were
loaded in three decks, and most
of them rode with their necks
craned out through the slats by
which they were confined. An un
usual noise would start the lead
er to honking, and then all
would follow his lead, making a
concert with more volume than
melody.
