Mr. anti Mrs R. F, Spears spent Sun. day with Mr. and Mrs ll, li. Spears. Mr. and Mrs Silas Spears visited al the home of Mr. and Mrs James Quick, ol Ked Bluff, Sunday. 1 expect the reason Ihc Two Foxes have been quiet for such a long time, is beacause they have been ealing spring chickens. Foxes are very fond ol chick en, as well as other lolks. Mr. iWillie Spears and sister, Lizzie, visited relatives in Hebron Saturday anti Sunday. Mr. James F.

Sunday was a-bright day but ex morning I said to myself how glad and thankful wo ought to bo for all tho good things we enjoy. With thia feeling upon mo .1 shaped my cou iso for tho pu pt Ut ch mol? to hear thc earnest christian pastor Rev. Edgar East erl i n g preach I will not attempt to comment on his iormon, su?lico it lo say that his sermon was as usunl reploto willi good counsel, christian living and christian duties, but in spite of all this good preaching, in ?pito of my feeling of tranquility I went away from thc chu rob mad, in dignant, sorry and ashamed, and all ibis was caused by the ill manners of some poison or persons 'ulking nut iu church; and this shall bo my subject for this week. Thia kind of thing docs not happen in Olio niton, or at loiut it has not been done herc right lately. There must certainly have como sonni strangers among us from the Conni bal Islands or some other heathen country. Surely no ono who lias been among civilized peoplo could bo guilty of sueh shameful behavior in church Now I alu not iu a good humor and I am going to talk plainly. Everybody that is concerned knows where to find mc and lam always at my placo of biisiuoss, thcrcforo any explanation that may bo wanted I stand open for argunient, ,'iibliely or privately. Sumo people think it smart to go to chu roll and talk while the preacher iii all his earnestness in trying to per suado men to load better lives. These chinch talkers novar stop to think that they cannot command tho alten lion of a sensible man in tho middle of a black swamp much less in the eliureli where a good christian minis ter is showing them their nothingness Tliey don't slop to think that it is the empty wagon that makes tho most .tucket., but everybody else knows il is [ am always willing lo allow a baby lo make a fuss in church if it isa young baby, but Lord deliver me from bearing a great big grown baby with moro collar than braius and manners, talking oui loud in church I had n great sight rather too him chew a baby rallie out loud. It would come nearer suiting bis mental calibre Now Ibis is nil. A word to the wisc is sufficient, but ibis much I will say, thc next time I nm annoyed this way in church I will publish ibe names pf the parties iu the poper whether they bo male or female 1 don't care what, kind of a family they come from, I will dd it certain. If ono of these church talkers wore td die I would li ko to write his epi taph, and hero is what I would write, on his tomb. 1 'And when you aro uuinhcrcd with tho j dead, Hlo.v a irrussy hillock, With juulico may thoy nuuk your head Here hoi a famous bullock " , ?Vi ri.

Sho has left an aged hus* bi nd Mr. William Hinson, who is now in his 88rd year. After ?!.'> years of peaceful married life, to tread the wino press of care anti trouble alone, besides a largo family of children and rolalivcs, 1 am in a position to know that she was a good woman. I of m'y own knowledgo know that it great part of her lifo was spent in minister ing to thc wants of tho sick. I have reason to know that she was ttiouglit> less of solf in her kindness to tho sick Whenever and wherever sho could get lo their aid. I am corta in that her lines have fallen in pleasant places. I have in my life closely watched ibo course of human events I have seen men and women who wore born and reared in painted two story houses who never in t hoir lives raised a h ind or voice much less a cent of inonoy to help tho poor, except in I he church to bo seen ol* men. I say that I have seen the departure from earl h of this kind of people; I havoseen tho long procession of buggies and carriages on iheir way led by the gayly chaperoned horses hitched to tho sombre Hoarse, while the church bells lolled in unison their sud farewell. I have seen pro* cession hendod by tho preacher in im tnaculato dress march through the long drawn aislo and Freitod Vault, and preach and piaiso tho virtues and goodness of a person who never did an net that would causo a sigh of regrot from any of their follow crea tures here on earth and not a word of wi leonie in a botler laud.

H?NEGAN, We, the members ot Marlboro Lodge No 88. A, K. M., deeply deplore his death but bow our heads in humble submission lo His holy will. Our Lodge loses an earnest member. one who was a Mason in every sense and who practiced the principles ol Masonry in every act of bis lile Thc Church loses an officer and mem ber who was ever active for its growth both spiritually and temporally and one whose life is a fitting example for us to lollow. Our community loses a citizen whose every act, since Iiis residence among us, has been for the betterment ol mankind -bc was foremost in every effort to pro-, mote public good. His family loses a faithful and alfect ionalc husband and father. No greater tribute ot love could be paid our deceased brother than to say lie was a christian gentleman, none ever questioned his uprightness and hon csty, lie enjoyed the confidence and res peet of all who knew him-bc had a sac red regard for truth--he was Irec from vengeful anger-bc was of strict integ rity, diligent in business, compassionate toward thc destitute and obedient to thc truth. Our hearts go out in deepest sympathy and with those who mourn: Be it resolved th u a pige in our min ute book lie inscribed to his memory, that a copy of this tribute bc published in our County papers and that a copy bc sent to the family ol our dcccoscd brother.
