A Sad Death.
On Monday morning, at two
o’clock, little Walter, son of Mr.
and Mrs. T. H. Paschal, died after
a short illness. Os him it can be
truihfully said, none knew him
but to love him. He had entered
his 13th year and possessed a
most amiable disposition, together
with those traits of character
which indicated to human appear
ances a life of usefulness. But the
cold hand of death has blighted
the cherished hopes and fond anti
cipations of parents and loved
ones, and little Walter, we trust,
has gone to join the myriad harp
ers on the other shore. To the
grief-stricken parents m this try
ing hour we tender our heartfelt
sympathies.
A Call to Mrtliodist-
The fourth and last quarterly
conference of the liarlem Circuit
will be held at Harlem on the
fourth Saturday and Sunday in this
month, and I do hope that all the
stewards of the Churches compris
ing the Harlem circuit, will come
forward with their assessments
fui l v paid up.
Now a few words to the mem
bers of the Harlem Church, you
who have not paid your assess
ments will please attend to it at
once; call on your steward and
settle up in full, and by so doing
you will be happy and your steward
will be happy, and you will re
lieve your pastor of all embarrass
ments, and he will go on bis way
rej dicing and the cause of Christ
will be advanced Now unless
you attend to this matter soon,the
oppoitunity will close, and your
preacher will leave for the annual
conference with a sad heart, em
; barrassed and distressed, on ac
i count of not being able to meet his
obligations, and you will have the
remorse of conscience of knowing
that you were partly to blame for
it, and perhaps you may not see
him again this side of the judg
ment. Now you have the oppor
tunity, avail yourself of it, act
promptly receiving God’s bless
ing for duing your duty, and be
happy. Yours in Christ,
Newnan Hicks,
Steward.
—The matrimonial season is
now upon us, and Dame Rumor
says we arc soon to have three
marriages in our midst.

Exchanges-
Columbus Enquirer: Mr. James
Truett, of Harris county, had a tooth
that gave him a great deal ot annoy
ance. He disliked to have it, pulled,
because his mouth would be distigur

pulled Mr. Truett’s tooth, fitted the
other tooth that he had just drawn in

FIRE AT THE LAKESIDE.
A Negro Nhanty and Cotton Store 1008
Burned Thia Morning
Evening News: About mid
night and just before dawn this
morning a big blaze was noticed
on the Lakbsido, and investigation
showed that a negro shanty a
little beyond the lake bridge had
been destroyed.
Tho house was the property of
Mr. Henry Hicks and his loss
will amount to about 8200. It
was occupied by u negro named
Yarborough, it is said, and ho has
used it as a store room for his
cotton as well as his residence.
This same negro has been indict
ed bv the grand jury for emptying
the cotton rows of his neighbors
and selling the raw product in
sacks. His enterprise is thus
brought to a close, and it looks
very much as it the tiro was the
work ot an incendiary. The loss
inside the house was very small.
