Heath of Mr*. E. H. l.enr.
»ws reached the city Wednesday
evening of the death at tier home in
Wynne, of Mrs. E. II. Lew. formerly
Miss Hose Lanier, of this city. Mrs.
Lew had suffered for several months
with a complication of stomach trou
bles, living been operated on in Mem
phis about three months ago for gall
stonev and after the operation, can
cer of the stomach set in. All that
medical "kill and the kindly, loving
care and attention of her husband,
brothers, sisters and friends could do
was done to prolong the life of the
sufferer, but their efforts proved of
no avail, and on Wednesday afternoon
at 5 o'clock, the kindly gentle spirit
winged its way to the realms of eter
nal peace.
Mrs Legg was in her 43rd year,
gbe was a native of this county, hav
ing been born and reared on the old
Lanier homestead just north of the
city Site was well known through
out the county, and was universally
loved and esteemed. Besides her
heartbroken husband, site leaves a
sister. Mrs. Sallie Wise, of Paragould,
and three brothers, Mr. W. J. Lanier,
of this city: Mr. R. .1. Lanier, of
Caldwell, and Mr. J. L. Lanier, of
Memphis, to mourn their loss, and
though her death not unexpected by
these loved ones, the summons of the
grim reaper, as always, found them
heart sore and heavy with grief to
give her up, though they realized in
her case, it was a blessed relief from
the long ami terrible suffering she
; had endured.
Mrs. Legg was a devoted member of
the Metiiodist church, and the funeral
proceeded fiomthat church in Wynne
this morning at 10 o'clock, interment
being made in the Wynne cemetery.
We wish to join the host of friends
of this noble moman in extending to
her bereaved relatives, our deepest
and sincerest condolences. We un
derstand that the burden of grief they
are called upon to hear, is indeed very
great, and that words of ours can do
naught to lessen it,but we do feel sin
cere sorrow at her untimely demise,
and sympathize deeply with the be
reaved ones, all of whom have long
been our friends. We can only com
mend them to Him. Who doetii ail
things for the best, and Who hath
said in all kindness "Come unto me
all ye that are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest.”
May she rest in peace.

Capt. .lames Fussell, of the Fussell
Graliam-Alderson Company, sent the
bug to and received a letter Monday
from the entomologist of the i’niver
sity of Arkansas, at Fayetteville,
having reference to the supposed Iwll
"eevi which was found by Mr. Orrin
Winfcrd. of west of town, last week,
and mentioned of which was made in
a news item printed in The Times.)
n,- bug authority informed Mr. Fus
seli that while the insect sent him
was und ul.tedly a weevil, it was not
the dreaded • ■ IkjI 1 w eevil" that has
caused such havoc in the cotton fields
Of the S Mr. Win ford is qn the
lookout for another of the insects,
and s t\s that the next one he catches,
he intends t" semi to the experts of
the Department of Agriculture in
Washington.
'\e are certainly glad that this was
not a regular boll weevil, and that so
Hr this county has suffered no loss on
their account, and we hope it never s
will, though there seems to lie two or
m°re other species of worms that are 1
»bout to eat up the crop in certain
portions .if the county.

Cotton Worms.
We saw at the store of Fussell-Gra
ham-Aiderson Company Wednesday,
a sack full of cotton bolls, all sizes,
and In different states of maturity,
every one of which had been either
eaten out entirely or to such an ex
tent to be completely ruined, by what
is known as the cotton worm. These
cottou worms have been operating in
this countv, and elsewhere, for several
weeks, and in places, we understand,
have almast literally cleaned up the
fields. Mr. Newman Laughinghouse
gathered this sack of bolls from a crop
in which his employers are interested,
and he tells us that they were gath
ered in just a few minutes; that
there are thousands of them, and
that there is no telling to what ex
tent these worms have damaged the
crop This is only one of the many
similar reports which daily reach this
office, and there is deep concern as to
the outcome of the present crop
