Tho sad news was received horo
Thursday of the death of Mrs. I. B.
Hampton at her home south of the
river near Guide Hock. Uer demise
was not unexpected as she lias been
failing for some time past. Herself
and husband were among the few first
settlers of the county coming hero
some twenty-seven or eight years ago.
Being well known throughout the
county her death will bo mourned by
many friends whoso sympathy will go
out to the stricken husband and fam
ily. Tho funeral took placo this morn
ing at her late home.
While tho country may not agroo
with Grover Cleveland on all matters,
It will heartily endorse his action
in sending this reply to the paper
that wanted his name to add to a sub
scription paper for a monument to
tho Maino survivors: "I declino to
allow mv sorrow for those who died
on tho Maine to bo perverted to an
advertising scheme for tho Now York
Journal." This is ono instance where
pcoplo will " lovo him for tho enemies
ho has inado." Tradiug on causes of
national sorrow to Increase tho sub
scription of a paper deserves just that
kind of a rebuke1 Abilene. Iteilector.
"A word to tho iwiso Is sufficient"
and a word from tho wise should bo

W. M. Terry says Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy gives better satisfaction than
any othor in tho market. Ho has been
in the drug business at Elkton, Ken
tucky, for twelvo years; has sold hun
dreds of bottles of this remedy and
nearly all othor cough medicines man
ufactured, which shows conclusively
Chamberlain's is tho most satisfactory
