B Mii.len, Ga., Sept. 20.?Fall has "sliped from the lap of summer," and the a< odding golden rod and falling leaves C(? arn us the "monarch of the seasons" is fc ear at hand!

We were carried ol to ethereal regions of eloquence by his to iwery language, aud all of a sudden ar ropped on the "wood pile of humor." co he beautiful grace used in bringing >out these diversions was pleasing in It ie extreme. He spoke of the immense nount of material we had in the South r brain workers. The fund of humor ie negro afforded; the keen witticism of ^ ouutaineers, especially those of Tenues- re e, whose brogue and peculiarities of m laracter had given Charles Egbert Crad- e ' >ck food for her master work. He lu hisked off here into some negro dialect, i id being a native Georgian was familiar wj itli the "darky" sufficiently to imitate jn m. "Say, John, I hear your master is gj. be married again. Will he take a idal tour?" "Do'^no, sir, 'bout dat, when d mistus was libbin' he tuck a paddle o er." "Ne plus ultra" was the motto fr) ;ed by the soveignty of the old world, gt dicating "nothing beyond" but Colum- gQ is discovered a new continent, auc. the jQ. ie" had to be discarded; "thus," said the W( >eaker, "education is growing, means pj >r it's promotion are being provided pa jarly, summer schools, perfect systems av ' imparting knowledge are being organ- eg) ed and the banners of "plus ultra" wave av rer our broad land, onward it leads us i unfathomable resources." Prof. Stratn, many will remember, won several _a atorical contests between Mercer Col- ?e ge and the StateUniversity. He is the g( vuer of a brilliant mind and a fluent >w of chaste language. Arriving in our town at an early hour riday morning he made his way at once the High School building and asked g^ e principal if a fish iu the Ogeechee g( ver could not be afforded him during ne e day. A conveyance, a driver, fishing ^ ckle and bait were soon procured and vay they went. That evening during ( ie of his humorous interims he said: ?( tTou people are greatly blessed, the long- WJ ired corn, fleecy cotton, waving wheat ap id oats, the rosy-cheeked apple and ellow peach thrive here, and?and an j0, )uudant crop of red bugs, for 1 have felt m em to-day." pu A portion of the proceeds he donated ^ our public library, which, by the way, gt, mtinues to reap a new narvesi 01 uuuk.3. ca The Pythian goat is bleating vigorous- it these days.

Little over two weeks ago this most ff ghly esteemed and dearly beloved ft >ung lady passed away from the midst | kindred and friends to that brighter aim reserved for the spirit of those ade perfect by the cleansing blood of an ~ er loving Christ. In the bloom of youth, A st verging iuto womanhood, when 1 liles seemed sweetest and voice musical, iien looks become magnetically engagg, and when the heart pulsates responrely and mutually to those higher and >bler virtues environed by affection's irest emotions, 'tis then we miss them ost as death's cold hand snatches them am endeared and devoted loved ones. || ich to us is the image now that sleeps tranquilly in the memory of those that ved her best. But she has done the ark of life, aud like a full blown flower ucked by the hand of death, she has .ssed away. If there were any failures raiting her in this transient life she has * capedthem; if there were any successes * raiting her she has already grasped the andest. Amid all the "ups and downs ? life, its dark vicissitudes,its sorrows and A ins, its afflictions and troubles, all have 9 ased, as her mortal life ebbed away. B er pleasures and joys that might have en anticipated here, as youth looks forird to them, have all too passed away the sphere of oblivion, and to-day in at brighter beyond she is realiziug the reet prospects ahead and enjoying tbat eavenly society "where congregations 'er break up, and Sabbaths never end." society where sin never enters and ath never visits. God sustained her from girlhood to Dmanhood, and though an orphan she is blessed in having a good home, and lid all the years of her life God was her ather." To day she is with those who ved her best and in "a mansion not ide with hands." My dear readers, I it here to-day in this solemn memoriam is question: Have any of you ever idied carefully this visitor to us ? Why 11 it an enemy ? Why do we speak of as being unwelcomed ? Is it because it often stalks into our homes unbidden d carries off those whom God has given to love? Oh, what a leap from the ? >usehold to the grave, but he w much f eater is the leap from time to eternity, I1 3m mortal to immortality, from earth Heaven! Gone! No, no! Not gone; ily asleep, "A blessed sleep, from which >ne ever wake to weep." In this world e leave friends and relatives alike, but < e only leave them for a short while. ? e travel ahead faster sometimes to eet-those gone on, and by and by we e them weary and worn at Heaven's t ites ready to* be ushered in by those igels who always keep those gates ajar, this death? Watch the loved one as ! or she with grieving eyes is bidding r a "(foivl.hrpi" Wateh those t ~J ~ inds as loved ones cross them for the st time. Give one more earnest, pass ive ok at that sweet, calm face. Remember, is the last look on earth. You turn away a sart-broken. On earth 'tis sorrow, 'tis sreavement; in Heaven 'tis joy, tis rapre, 'tis union of hearts never to again ; broken, never to be severed. Christians is is death. It is said 'tis sweet to die for one's iuntry, but who knows the readiness of B e warrior unless as a Christian soldier j is armed with the spiritual weapons of lirist ? Then will lie come out more than mqueror through Him that lov ed us and ^ ive himself for us. The death of such not like the beautiful sunset cf autumn, it like the glorious sunrise of an imortal spring morning. Like the gloriis sunrise over a crystal sea. Whentwight hour comes over the home, and the rening shadows get longer, we feel the id vacancy more. But youth soon forits its sadness and turns to meet the imiug pleasures that the future brings, bt altogether so however is the beautiful >ul character here delineated. She was iber and chaste in action and at times ensive and considerate. Her whole life as typical of sweet reservation and unssuming modesty. Not gushing in her eart's purest affection, consequently lose that knew her most love 1 her best, he leaves many relatives and friends beiud to mourn her absence, bu'. none so eenlv as her loving sister, whose tears nd kisses (love's fragrance) alike fell pon the placid face that only seemed leeping in quietude and beaucy. At 15 ears of age she was baptised by her | astor at Bethesda church and at 21 years I he crossed the border separating this life | rom immortality, looking forward to the lessed assurance embodied in that liblical promise: "Blessed are the dead ,ri;? i., tlio r.V>ril " TTrp PisTnn. jlilLU Vi IV/ iu buv X4WAV4. ? .w Ehrhardt, September 1G, 1902.
