Lizzie Burgess, the ten-year old daughter of Tom Burgess, a negro living two miles east of town, was brought to Dr Brockinton for treatment for a wound in the head caused by the bullet from a pistol cartridge that her little brother had thrown into the tire, causing it to explode. That the child was not killed is due only to the fact that the bullet was spent when it struck Iu*r head.

Pa&lAway at His Home lifter a Lingering Illness. i After a painful and lingering illnessj lasting- many weeks, Mr W White Kennedy, passed i away at 4 o'clock a m., Monday, I June 12, 1905, at his home six i miles east of Cades. The fun- j eral services took place at Hebron church on Tuesday, at 11 a m., being conducted by Rev J Bi Traywick, after which the re-11 mains were interred in the 1 church-yard. Mr Kennedy was 45 years old and besides a num-1 ber of other relatives, is survived by his wife and four children. ! While lorsome time lie realized that his days were numbered. Mr Kennedy met and overcame the last enemy of mankind with courage born of perfect faith in his Savior and when the end came lie fell on sleep calmly, serenely and in the full conti dence of a better life beyond, j Those who ministered to his needs as the sands of life ran low, say that they never knew of one so resigned, and at the last he expressed the firm belief that it was well with his soul. Mr Kennedy was highly es-. teemed among his home people , aiw had many friends through-, opt the county. He was a valuable member of Hebron church and had served as school trustee, a member of the board of equalizatu^ and in other positions of trust, of which he discharged the duties ably and conscientiously. To the bereaved family, we extend tenderest sympathy, as in his death we feel the loss of ! a valued friend. I ? ^"i?i-| I'm Growing Old Fast And you know why, too. It's those gray hairs!
