LOCAL MiHS AVI) VIEWS
Dr. J. W. Embree has an advertise-
ment of his mercantile business in to-
day's paper. Everybody in Bell county
knows Dr. Embree. He has resided
here for thirty-one years, and dur-
ing that time has been in partnership
with numerous individuals, and takes
pride in the fact that his relations with
all of them have been pleasant to the
end. As a physician he was in part-
nership at different times with Drs. A.
J. Embree, H. E. Bradford, J. A. Ew-
ing, Davis, W. D. Eastland, J.
M. Moore, and Don nan. As a
merchant he has had a9 partners Messrs.
J. Q. Allen, M. E. Miller, H. E. Keys,
W. A. Staton, Geo. C. Pendleton,
Ed. Pendleton, A. P. Bently, John C.
Letts; J, M. Cross. W. D. Taylor and
Joel T. Howard. The doctor calls a
good portion of these last named, "my
boys," and is certainly rejoiced to
know thai every one of them is pretty
well off in this world's goods.
Laat Sunday there was a reunion
near Center Lake, about eight miles
southeast from Belton, and on that oc-
casion all of the living children and
grand children of Mrs. Garrison were
present, there being seven of the form-
er and twenty five of the latter, making
thirty-two in alL But the interesting
feature of the occasion was in the ex-
•'"PWMrs. Garrison set for her de-
scendant*. She cooked the dinner

vited guests being present. This lady
is in her sixty-fourth year, but active as
a young woman, and gives promise of
adding many more years to her life be-
fore it closes.
There is a rumor here that the Mis-
souri Pacific has purchased twenty
. acres of land from Mr. Wm. Perkins,
eight miles east of Belton. Mr. W. T.
J. Hartrick says be bad understood as
much, and we have heard the some
from other sources. We have not
heard direct from Mr. Perkins about
the matter.. We presume that if a sale
has been made it baa been conditionally,
or the dead would have been recorded,
which has ■« Men done. If arrange-
ments have JlftftiflBtered into between
Mr. Perkins and the railway company
for this much land, we may reasonably
conclude that the building of the Bel-
ton branch will not be long delayed.
Sunday night of last week, Mr. B.
F. Bullock, who lives three miles from
Rogers, had bit house turned up and
eveiyBiing in it, inetarifog one thous-
and dollars in cash. He saved about
sixty or seventy dollars of the amount,
that much being in silver coin, which
melted in a mass. While the house
was burning, some of the neighbors
were removing some bales of cotton
from aa old oat house, when Mr. W.1
R. Wallace, one of the number, bad
both bones of one leg broken by a
falling bale. Mr. Wallace is very un-
fortunate. He was just recovering
from a gunshot wound in the arm, re-
ceived a few weeks ago from an assas-
sin.
Col. John T. Flint was in this county
a good portion of last week on busi-
ness connected with the Missouri Pa-
cific railway. He bought about eighty
acres of land on Darr's creek for the
^company, and qarffeM^^a depot will

Obituary.
Died—Mrs. Sophia Lynch, on Octo-
ber 31, at the residence of her daughter,
Mrs. Col. E. S. C. Robenson, after a
lingering illne.;s. For over forty years
she was a devoted member of the M.
E. Church, South, and was always an
untiring worker in its cause. For
many years she was one of the leading
members of both church and Sunday
school, and in the latter she was a
faithful teacher for a long period of
lime. For some years she acted as
stewardess in the church. Although
shrinking from anything masculine,
when duty called she took up the bur-
den, bore it patiently, and successfully
labored for the church. Even when
sickness and age had made exertion a
burden, her pale face was seldom absent
from its place in church, and her
feeble form was rarely missing from its
post of religious duty. Many of us
who knew her years ago, iu the days
when her strength had not waned, and
disease had not conquered her zealous
spirit, remember how promptly and
heartily she responded to every call for
work or help iu any good cause or be-
nevolent enterprise, and how capably
she filled every position and duty dele-
gated to her. As a friend and church
member, she was beloved and respected
by all, and in her own home circle,
where her helpful hand was ever ready
and her influence was felt to be so po-
tent for good, her loss is irreparable.
None could fully appreciate her as a
woman who did not know her in her
every day home life. She was one of
the few of whom it can be said, "She
was faithful in all the relations of life,
and best beloved where most intimately
known." She was sensible to the last,
and in spite of great suffering, talked
of death, which had no sting for her.
She spoke to all her loved ones, young
and old, of life and heaven, and died
strong in the faith she had lived by, and
earnestly begged her family all to meet
her in the " Better Land."
Slowly toll the solemn bell,
Hearts are sad and tears arc shed;
omning friends their sorrow tell,
U w-mm \ ' 'a MuU*t j ad.
One more star now shines in heaven,
One more friend to glory hies,
Again Death'e anjjcl droops her pinions,
O'er the home deep shadow lies.
Silent lies a form familiar,
Sorrowing now our hearts we blend;
Dead and silent, gone before us,
Mother, sister. Christian friend.
Ripe and ready for the harvest,
In her arms were garnered sheaves,
She was not found "empty-handed,"
She had more than "withered leaves."
Daughter, sister, loved ones Ikig'ring,
'Round her cold and silent bier—
From her life wise lessons learn ye,
Meet her in God's happy sphere.
.A Friend.

their office in the Tobler Building, up
