Our eomunlty was shocked last Monday by the announcement tbat Thomas Triplett had died almost suddenly from taking poison.' It seems that Triplett, who was a brick mason, and adicted to drink, had some wine in a jog at the Heokel Live Stock Co s. stable. He put some of the win from the jug In a bottle at the stable and then drank from it In a few minutes he became deathly sick and went to his residence only a short distance away but-was seised with convulsions almost im mediately and died within an hour. Investigation showed that the bottle used bad a small quantity of ac onite la It, kept by the stable men to dose a sick horse. ' ' Drs. MeXatry, Ivey and Kent all did everything possible to save the man, hot to no avail the deadly drug did It work speedily. It issupposed that Triplett thought the bottle was empty when he put the wins in it and that the poialon lng was purely accidental.' He was I good workmen and could make money when he let drink alone, but ha left his wife and four children in almost destitute circumstance. Chips from Granite. Mr. Graham from 8.

The wonderful array of female per form eis with the Great Van Amburg Show is one of its strong features. There is no other show in the ooun try which has so many high-class fe tin ale artists as this show, and the work of these fair ladies on the flying trapeze and acrobatic and other dar ing feats has won the adut lratlon of the thousands where the show has exhibited. While this is only one of the many features presented by this vast amusement enterprise, it aione Is well worth the prioe of admission. The Van Amburg Show will give two performances in Lenoir on 8.t uct sctn afternoon and evening. Don't miss the grand street parade in the forenoon and the free exhibi tions on the show grounds lmmedi ately after the parade. Letter to J. A. Dais Lenoir, N. C.

Miss Emma Pearl Clarke, young est daughter of Mr. 8. M. and Mrs. Emma Clarke, was born in Lenoir, N. C, February 8th, 1888. She waa educated in the well known Kirk wood 8elect School for girls, and at Daven port Female College. She was bap tised in Infancy by Rev. M. V. Sher rilL She was hopefully convicted and received Into full membership of the M. E. church, of Lenoir, at the age of 18 years. Both her beloved parents, her three brothers, W. D. Clarke, Statesvllle, N. C, Arthur Clarke, Marion, N. C Louis Clarke, Eodloott, Wash., and two sisters, Mrs. H. C. Martin, Lenoir, N. C. and Mrs. Blackwell, Eastland, N. C, survive her and mourn the painful departure. Although she waa the youngest of and household and specially loved and petted, she was not spoiled.- She honored her par ents, not only in public, but in the privacy of the home, not simply in health but in sickness also. Even during her last illness of ten week's waning strength she manifested more concern about the rest and sleep needed by her anxious parents, watching at her bedside, than about 4ierown serious and alarming con dition of health. She was ever loving and deferential to her older sisters and brothers. She was kiud and courteous to all her acquaintances. She waa unselfish- and generous, true and loyal to her special friends. She was just in the full bloom or young womanhood. God blessed her with a body which though, "fearfully and wonderfully," made, was fair and coin rely in form, lovely and graceful In personal appearance, and being adorned with an amiable, modest and gentle christian spirit, shews admired by all who had even a pass ing acquaintance with her and love ingly attractive to all those who knew hex well. She was reserved and undemonstrative in her relige ous character; but was not ashamed of Christ. During a serious" attack of typhoid fever at a period when her mind was perfectly clear she was questioned concerning her faith in Christ. She did not hesitate to let it be known that He and He alone was her hope of salvation. Although for many days prior to her "depar ture" her mind was wandering and she was in a delirious condition yet no notes of alarm, in her moBt irr tional moments, were heard to fall from her lips, as she n eared the bor ders of eternity; and snoh was her beautiful life that her "loved ones" bave great reason to believe that her death waa "the death of the righte ous" and that they should "not sor row as those that ha ire no hope." But the rather, strive to live the life that "now is by faith in the Son of uoa" so mat w nen tney ate, tney too, may "pas away" without a single struggle and gently fall asleep in Jesus. , "0, for the death of those Who slumber In the Lord O, be like thelr's my last repose Like their' my last reward.1' C.A.M.

Every time crops are hauled away off the farm, life is hauled away from the soil, and the farm Iobos in value. Even hauling away hay and straw is pretty nearly as bad; and th old time way of durning straw is worse. I knew an eccentric man once who would not even have his f.uit gath ered and made use of, because he said it was due to the ea'th to return to her what she had taken the trouble to produce! The Indian today, who ngnis against elviliation, says, Grass mother. Earth hair. I uot cut mother hair. Earth mother breast. 1 uot plow mother breast!" But to get value from the farm, some thing must be shipped. The question is, what hIiiII that be, to be the most advantageous? "Wie answer, accord ing to a friend of mine, is "That which will take the least value from the soil, aud which will be the most easily replaced. To this end the value must be in the most concentrated form." Clearly meat, meat stuffs; cream and eggs are highly concen trated products. Of course the cost of production and the market values bave to be considered in making se lection. Everything raised on the on the farin(what is not wanted for the family larder,) can be turned into these crops. More money can be made off them than off other things. When yon haul them away, you leave the bulk of the life of the Boil behind Live weight and cream weight have so little bulk, comparatively, and tne small extraction or fertility can be replaced at small cost. The skpu milk occupies a corresponding place to the cream1 -that the permanent pasture does of the live stock, when it goes eventually to the cattle deal er.
