    TRIBUTE OF ESTEEM
iE
Loved by All Who Knew Her The
Casket Was Utterly Burled in
Wreaths of Flowers.
Tlic high esteem a ii4 1 deep, af
fection in which Mrs. Frank Jen
son was held in her home at .New
man Grove will he shown hy the
following account of her death,
which appeared in the .Newman
drove Reporter. Mrs. Jensen was
formerly Miss Hose Hat ton of this
city, and her untimely death, while
still in the sunshine of young
womanhood, caused a feeling of
deep n ri f here among those
friends vOio had known her so
long and well:
All Newman drove was sur
prised and shocked Tuesday
morning when the news got
around town that Mrs. Ir. Jensen
was dead. It was known that her
health was very poor, but no one
realized that the end was so near.
It seemed impossible lo believe
that the report was true. Death
was due to the perils of mother
hood, perils which all women must
face and against which science
eometimes is powerless.
Mrs. Jensen was one of the
most lovable and popular women
in town. Naturally, she was of a
quiet, even, retiring disposition,
but her many good qualities were
so apparent, her nature so sym
pathetic, her mind so bright that
mm could not help being attracted
by her pleasing personality and
sunny disposition. Even casual
acquaintances treasure pleasant
memories of her. Death indeed
loved a shining mark when he re
moved from the midesl, of her
duties and from those who loved
her so well ami were beloved in
return.
A great wave of pity ami sym
pathy goes out to the doctor in
this (he darkest hour of his life,
more to him than to the average
man because lie devotes his life
and his skill to relieving the suf
fering and sorrows of others and
he lias a greater claim upon the
sympathies of his friends than the
average man can ever get. Noth
ing that can be said or done now
will lighten his burden of grief or
remove from him the black pall
of sorrow, but in the time to come
he will appreciate the deep feel
ings of sympathy and sorrow that
his friends have for him.
Little Hnssell, loo, must go
through life without the care and
council of his loving mother.
All considered, it is one of I lie
saddest deaths that one can re.
curd. When an old person is call
ed home one thinks the sands of
life were about niu and, while
there is grief, il is not so lasting.
When a little child is called, or a
young person, there is great sor
row, bul still one thinks of the
trials and tribulations of life and
is glad that they are missed.
Hut when a young wife and
mother is called it, seems almost
impossible to spare her. Her life
means so much. Her cheery pres.
dice and lender, sympalhclic help
means so much to (lie husband
who is battling with the world for
her protection and comfort. No
difference how hard I he world
uses him, how discouraging the
outlook may be, he is always as
sured of her sympathy ami love,
and when he retires lo the sanct
uary of (he home he can forget all
else. Without her he is troubled
and alone. Hi greatest slay and
comfort is taken from him and he
knows not what to do. Life is but
an empty void, a burden which be
must carry and of which he would
gladly be free.
To her children, also, she is a
tower of love and strength. This
world has no more beautiful pic
ture than a young mother and her
child. No one can cure their little
sorrows and rejoice over their lit
tle triumphs like she ran. She is
n constant source nf love and in
spiration to them as she is to per
husband.
No words can express the sor
row of her taking away and only
that Christian faith, in which we
must all believe, can reconcile (he
bereaved ones to her departure.
The thought that she still lives
and that in a little while they will
be with her again enables them
to hear the crushing load that has
been cast upon their hearts.
The funeral was held at 2:. 'JO
this afternoon from the Methodist
church ami interment w as in Hope
cemetery. I he casket was literal
ly buried in floral tributes from
her many friends.

As a Result of Carelessly Handl
ing Gun He Loses an
Arm.
A terrible accident occurred
across the river from this city
yesterday afternoon, which result
ed in Homer Head, a young lad,
having to have his left arm
amputated about three inches be
low the elbow.
The boy was driving along in a
wagon and was holding a loaded
shotgun in his right hand, when,
on the team stopping suddenly,
the weapon was discharged in
some manner and the shot entered
the left hand and arm of the boy,
lacerating it in such a manner
that it was impossible to save it.
He was brought to I his city last
evening and the arm was taken
off about 7:30 o'clock. The boy
was very brave under the opera
tion ami walked to the depot this
morning lo return home without,
assistance. This ought lo lie a
forceful lesson to tin; boys who
have a habit of handling llrearms
in such a careless manner, ami
I here is no telling when a person
is liable (o be wounded or killed
by Hie premature discharge of a
weapon.

SOIOL SOCIETY
WITH BAD ACC
ONE OF THE GREAT
EST SHOWSFOR YEARS
"Bought and Paid For" Com
mended by Everyone of the Big
Audience Present.
"Moiighl and Paid For," which
ippcared at the Parmele theater
Saturday evening, was undoubted
ly the linest production that has
appeared here for several seasons
and was presented by a splendid
company, who gave a most artistic
rendition of Hie powerful play of
modern life.
Miss Julie Heme, who appeared
in the role of Virginia Hlaiue, was
most charming, ami as the out
raged wife was simply great, ami
throughout the progress of the
play the sweetness and charm of
her acting look a deep hold on
I he feelings of the audience. The
leading male role, that of Robert
Stafford, was portrayed by Charles
Millward and he deserves all the
praise that the metropolitan press
and playgoers have given him and
he is among the linest actors who
ever appeared in this city and it
was a rare treat to he present to
see him in Ifcis part, which was
so well suited to his style of act
ing. (Ieorge A. Wright and Miss
Dorothy Davies, as James Gilley
and Fanny, his wife, were the fun
makers of the show and they were
very clever in their parts and Mr.
Wright provoked many hearty
laughs by his clever and clean
comedy. i
The play is a very powerful one,
dealing with some of the great
problems that confront the mar
ried life and showed just how far
the woman may be driven by her
husband and her revolt for her
own self-respect and how in the
end il brought the husband back
into the proper path and made
their future life secure from any
repetitions of the scenes that
caused I heir parting. The com
pany carried all I heir own scenery
and properties with them ami the
play had some beautiful settings
which added greatly to the mas
terful manner in which it was
presented. The audience was
quite large ami everyone was de
lighted with the splendid treat
that Manager Shlaes had secured
for I heir enjoyment.
The orchestra that furnished
I he music for "Nought and
Paid" is one of the best that ever
played in the house for any en
tertainment, ami received great
praise from the audience for the
excellency of , Hu music. Prof.
Kolbaba is one of the finest violin

Sunday evening Washington
Delihay, the little 11 -year-old son
of Ed Delihay, passed away at his
home on the Danniher farm, near
Murray. The boy had been mak
ing his home with his uncle and
aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Delihay, for
some time. The lad was struck in
the face with a base ball early in
the fall and continued to grow
worse until a cancerous growth
developed, which finally caused
his death. The funeral was held
Monday afternoon from the home
and interment was made in the
Horning cemetery. Washington
was a very bright little fellow and
his untimely death will fall very
heavily on the relatives and play
mates, who have been hoping for
a more favorable outcome.
A Merry Christmas.
Last Saturday was the largest
day the Variety Store has had in
its six years of business success.
There's a reason being a mem
ber of the Soul hern Association
of 5c, tOc and 25c stores, a chain
of over 300 stores, connected to
gether in such a way that it en
ables us to purchase merchandise
for less itioney than any single
firm could ever hope lo buy, and
buying for less enables us to make
the lowest prices possible. You
do save money when you make
your purchases at the Variety
Store. Should you in any way
doubt the above statement you can
