IS LINCOLN COUNTY SLACKING?

-f our county i railed to tho. fact
that the United War Work Cam

ber 18th. At the present more than
half of the quota for our county is
vet to be raised. Friends, we must not
fall down on this work. Wo cannot
afford to fhirk our responsibility. It
will be n lasting reproach to the fair
name of our county if wc fail now.
It is more discreditable to fail on this
dr've thnn if wo had failed on the
I ibnrtv Loan. In the latter instance
we were under governmental pressure

have concerned ourselves only with
our own rafcty and aro ready to for

construction in which this nation of
ours must play a prominent part? This
is perhaps our last opportunity to
mako a great gift to our splendid men

4th
Fow death that have occurred In
this section In years have caused more '
genuine sorrow than that of Thur
man K. Tudor, which occurred at 1
o'clock Wednesday morning. He had
been ill of Influenrn which wcntl
Into pneumonia, nnd having a weak !
heart, much uneasiness was foil con-i
corning him from the start. For near-'
lynOycelc he lingered between life and i
death, hut Just as the new dny was
..A I I I. II!. I !.. . I
IM.-IHJ; uhiilti'u iii nuunrsiiny, nis spir
it returned to the God Who gave It.
LThe burial occurred in Huffnlo
Spring Cemetery at 3:.'I0 Thursday
afternoon in the presence. of one of
the largest gatherings in that city of
tho dead in a long time. Revs. H. J.
Hnir.clton and W. D. Wclburn each'
made an appropriate, but brief talk j
at the grave. "Some Day Wu'll Un-
derstand," Mr. Tudor'a favorite hymn,
was sung by a quartette of his friend,
over to the Masons, of which frntcr-
nal order he was an honored mem
ber. Deceased was n son of Mr. nnd
Mrs. I). II. Tudor, ormerly of this
county, but now residing at Green
field, III. Almost all of his splendid
life had been srent in this county, and
he was .10 years old In August Inst.
He had for a long time been not only
a member but an officer in the Staf
ford Christian church, had n large
and interesting Sundny school class,
and was indeed ono of the best work
era of that large congregation. No
cleaner, better christian gentleman
has lied in this section in many de
cades, and his death is a distinct loss
to the city ami community. A splen
did business man, Mr. Tudor had
amassed sufficient of this world's
goods to own n nice home, and in it
he and his intveotiir family of wife
ami peven-montns old daughter, little
Virginia WOley Tudor, were ns hnp
py as mnrtnls get to be on this side
of the grave. Hut death loves a shining
mark and a good God called him to
the home beyond tho skiorf to evermore
bask in the sunshine of Him Who gn'c
him. Some year airo Mr. Tudor was
married to.ML'.s Pearl Fields, who
with the little daughter mentionod
aboVH, survive him. The widow nnd
orphan nre left lonely and desolate
in their great sorrow but they weep
not alone. Unbounded sympathy goes
out to them, tho aged father and mo
ther and to the family of the wife,
whose parents had learned to Ioe tho
young man as they did their own
boys.
JOE MACK NEWLAND GONE
Joe Mark Newland, son of .Mrs.
Annie N'eulaml, died in Cleveland,
0 Friday and the remains were laid
to rest at Lexington Tuesday. He had
been in that city for six or seven
months and was engaged as a win
dow, dresser and advertising writer.
His many friends here learned with
much regret of his untimely death
and sympathize with the mother, bro
thers and sister in their irreparable
loss.
WAR WORK CAMPAIGN
The county was pretty well canvass
ed Wednesday for subscriptions to the
War Work Fund but this paper re
grets to state that the sum asked of
the county. $14,735, is far from be
ing raised. In fact hardly half of it has
been secured so fnr and if we nre to
go "over the top," as we have in the
other drives, some tall hustling has to
be done in the next few days.
BRING THE TOOLS BACK
Those who have borroweil from the
county, picks, shovels, sledge ham
mers and the like are requested to re
turn them promptly to the work house
on Depot street. These are badly
needed and it is desired that they ba

BLOOD HOUNDS
TRAIL MURDERER
Marshall Herring nnc son, Forest
Herring, of Hustonville, were here
Thursday morning returning from
Rockcastle county, where they had
been to trail the man who had killed
S. R. Singleton, some 12 miles out in
V country from Mt. Vernon. They
only took one dog with them but it
did the work quickly and well. The
trail wub goon picked up and the ca
inu went directh to the house where
Marion Durham was. He had already
been suspcted and he was taken to
the Mt. Vernon jail. Charles Thomp
son ha nlreadv been jailed on the
charge of participating in the killing.
Durham was moving his uncle's furni
ture from a house belonging to Sin
gleton, when they had hot words. It
is claimed that Durham used a Win
chester. The wound was in the back
of Singleton's head.
TIMOTHY ENGLEMEN DEAD.
News was received here yesterday
of the death at his home in Pueblo,
Col., of Timothv Englcman, son of
the late James Englcman, formerly of
the Hubble section of this county.
About 15 years ago the deceased, then
a small boy, removed to Pueblo,
where he has since lived. While only
32 years of age, Mr. Engleman held
n most responsible position with the
Colorado Fuel and Smelting Com
pany and made a handsome salary.
His death was the result of pneu
monia, resulting from a week's at
tack of influenza. The splendid young
man is survived by his wife nnd mo
ther, both of whom were at his bed
side when the end came. He had a
number of relatives in this county,
among them being an aunt, Mi.
Eliza Harris, of Hubble, and Mrs. II.
t. Saufley, of this place, who is a
cousin.
PASSING UNDER THE ROD
The fnnvlv of Mr. A. A. Potts, out
on the Danville pike, is certainly pass
ing under the rod of affliction. Du
ring the influenza epidemic Mr. Potts
has lost his wife and two daughters.
Mrs. Floyd Likins and Mrs. Grover
McGuffey. At one time every mem
ber of these three families was down
with 'flu," and had not friends nnd
neighbors come to their nid, there is
no telling how many would have join
ed the silent majority. Unbounded
smpathy goes out to Mr. Potts nnd
the others whose sorrow is so great.

JUDGE W. M. MYERS NO MORE
Tho news of the death of Judge
William M. Myers, of Hustonville, will
cause sorrow wherever the splendid
gentleman was known. A good citi
zen, a splendid gentlemnn, n model
husband nnd devoted father, he was
admired by nil who had the good for
tune to know him. Ilia death occurred
nt Liberty at noon Wednesday and
his burinl took place in the Huston
ville CemcUVy at 10 o'clock this
morning, after brief Bcrvices by his
pastor, Dr. A. II. Baugh. Judge My
ers had gone to Liberty to spend a
few days with tho relatives and
friends of his younger dnys and was
stricken while there. For many years
he had been a sufferer from Bright's
disease. His popularity is shown to a
slight extent by his election to the
county judgeship of Casey, when that
county was even more overwhelming
ly republican than now. Since his re
moval to Lincoln county he hnd taken
an active hand in politics. His support
meant n great deal to the democratic
aspirant for office nnd it was sought
by many wMb asked political prefer
ment in this county. Judge Myers
married a daughter of Winston Bow
man, of Liberty, and his widow and
two sons, Lieut. Carlisle Myers, at n
Southern camp, and Bowman Myers,
with Dr. Barrow's unit in England,
survive the good man. His death has ,
cast n gloom over the West End.
Business was at a standstill during
his burial, the whole town turning
out to pay their last tribute to the
friend, who was n friend indeed.
JAMES ANDERSON DEAD
The heavy hand of sorrow and
denth has been laid on the family of
Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Anderson and
in their great loss and trouble every
heart in this entire section goes out
to them in unbounded sympathy. For
weeks from one to a half dozen of
that good fnmily have been ill with the
influcnzn, and on. Wednesday morn
ing between midnight and ono o'clock.
James Anderson, aged 10, was called
to tho land where there is no sorrow
and no death. The fine young man had
been ill for some time nnd his phys
"al condition had become so frail that
it could not stand thtf- ravages of the
fearful enidemic nnd his life paid the
forfeit. His burial occurrciHn Buffa
lo Springs Cemetery nt 2:30 Thursday
afternoon after brief services at the
grave by Rev. II. J. Brazelton. The
following of his young friends acted
as pall-bearers: Howard Brazelton,
Jr., James Bailey, Mike McCarty, Fred
McCarty, Joe Grimes and Powell Wi
thers. A large crowd attended the bu
rial and beautiful flowers brought by
many friends. Young Anderson joined
the Christian church when a mere
child and was a most excellent boy in
every wny. It is indeed sad that he was
cut down so early in life, when the
years thnt are to come seemed to have
held so much for him.
700 CASES SO DEATHS
According to the estimate of Dr.
W. B. O'Bannon, chairman of the
Board of Health of this county, Lin
coln has had 700 cases of influenza
and 50 deaths have been the toll. A
statement sent out by Dr. McCormack
shows that there have been 175,000
rases in the State and the number of
deaths is in excess of 0,000. The epi
demic is on the wane in this county
and elsewhere.
THE BAN STILL ON
The Lincoln County Board of
Health, W. B. O'Bannon, chairman,
it a meeting Thursday decided to
'nvc the ban on indoor gatherings
if nny kind or for nt least a week
'ongcr. While the "flu" is on the de
"line, they deemed it best to tako no
-nances. As a result tho schools will
not open next week nor will there be
""hing any where in the county
Sunday.
FORMER LINCOLN LADY DEAD.
Mrs. Curtis Smith, who was Miss
Bettie Reynolds, a daughter of J. W.
Reynolds, of this county, died of tu
berculosis nt her home in Lancaster
Tuesdny and was Curled In tho Goshen
Cemetery Wednesday, ner husband
died only a very short time after the
marriage.
EMMETT BRICHT DEAD.
The Danville Advocato tells of the
death in Sacremento, California, of
Emmett Bright, aged 22, son of Mr.
