A. Taliaferro, near Effingham, at 11 o'clock last night, of general debility. Col. Taliaferro was born in Richmond, August 15, 1827. He married Melissa Brown, a sister of Miss Mary Brown, of Atchison, and daughter of the late Col.

Edwin Rice Brown, also of Atchison. Mrs. Taliaferro died in 1883. Prior to the Civil war Col. Taliaferro was a very large plantation and slave owner at Hazlehurst, Miss.

He entered the Confederate army at the commencement of the war, serving practically the whole time. His first service was the long and tedious wait for McClellan to move. He became very tired of it, and asked permission to resign, as he was to reanxious turn to his large family in Mississippi. request was refused, but Col. Taliaferro went direct to theSecretary of War in Richmond, and was successful in getting a furlough.

He returned to his home in Mississippi, and after a brief visit, was constantly engaged in the forwarding of supplies for the army in that territory, acting as quartermaster. This work was very arduous, and required the constant crossing and recrossing of the Mississippi river in the face of the federal gunboats. After the war some of Col. Taliaferro's slaves were elected to the Mississippi legislature, conditions generally were so demoralized during the carpetbagger regime, and the plantation business unprofitable, his fortune having been largely depleted, that he decided to come north with his family, which he did in the spring of 1869, locating in Atchison. Col.

Edwin Brown followed a few years later. Col. Taliaferro, a few years after his wife's death, in order to preserve his health. spent the summers in Montana and the winters in Mississippi, the springs and falls being spent with his children at Atchison and Effingham. This mode of living he continued until a year ago, when his health became too precarious to permit the railroad trips.

As a rule, cards of thanks are looked upon with disfavor in a printing office, but here is one The Globe takes great pleasure in printing: "Mrs. Roxy Woodruff desires to thank the many friends who were so kind to her yesterday." And hereby hangs a tale. According to Mrs.

Woodruff's best recollections she was born in 1817: This would make her 91 years of age. She is a widow, childless, hasn't a near relative on earth that she knows anything about, and has no money. To be old is hard enough; to and poor is a tragedy; and, to be old and poor, and in Lonesome Land; what could be worse? But Mrs. Woodford is so bright and cheery that no one suspects her age; her friends refuse to let the wolf cross her threshold, and, if there are any terrors in Lonesome Land, her good nature and brave heart have banished them. Mrs.

Woodruff was born in Lockport, New York, in 1817, and was married while still a girl to a widower with a large family of children. They moved to Atchison in 1861, and her husband was at times a blacksmith at Monrovia, and again a farmer, and, at another time, Mrs. I Woodruff kept a boarding house. He died in 1892, and her only son, Ulysses Woodruff, died in 1901, and the wife and mother, who had worke hard ever since she was a little girl, and helped her father in the fields, again took up the burden of earning a ing and secured a position in the Howard Overall factory. Past 80, she the most popular "girl" in that came institution, and when she was let out a few years ago, her co-laborers saw to it that she would never lack for financial aid.

Every year, the week before Thanksgiving, they give Mrs. Woodruff a donation party, and fifth annual event was held last night in a room in the Murphy block, where Mrs. Woodruff makes her home. They brought baskets of sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, canned goods, sugar, coffee, jellies, preserves, there were seventy-five packages heaped up on: a table when the eighteen guests went home, the gifts of employes at Howard's, old friends and neighbors, and from the girls at Mrs. Linn's.

The cash donations amounted to $8.25. The evening was spent in the guests sitting around listening to Mrs. Woodruff's stories of the dances and parties she attended as a girl, so many years ago. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, speaking before Kansas City school teachers, gave advice which is important to everyone in this country, and perhaps more to some others than teachers.

He said in part: "I want to talk to you about a matter that is uppermost in my thoughts as I travel over this great country. It is 1 the tendency to lawlessness that manifests itself more or less in every corner of the United Absolute obedience and reverence are what our laws demand. I do not say they are perfect, but such as they are we must respect them. The only alternative is the man on horseback; I mean rule by open force. Let me give only recent example of what lawlessness leads to.

I refer to the shocking violation of law in Springfield, this summer. Lincoln's own city, where he lived and where his body is buried, was held up to scorn before America and! the whole world by the violation of' the common rights and privileges of all American citizens. And by whom? By tramps, outlaws and criminals playing the passions of the populace. It is your duty as teachers to sow the seeds of right thinking on this question. The schools can do nothing better than drive home the fact of the reign of law.

We must teach obedience to constituted authority. You can do so in many ways. The educational authorities of the country need to make some effort to counteract the prevailing fashion of rebellion. It is presented in attractive form in the literature and art of these days. Characters are undermined by novels that attract us by their fancy titles or their putrid contents.

As teachers we must look for these evil influences and destroy them." John D. Davis, of St. Louis, president of the water company, who was in Atchison yesterday, authorized the installation of an alum system of settling water exactly as is used in Kansas City and St. Louis. The system will be installed immediately.

Dr. Knerr this morning examined the water and pronounced that it was up to standard, and that it was safe. Notwithstanding this satisfactory test, the water company will go to additional expense and install the alum system, to insure pure water. The alum system consists of a pipe with numerous small outlets placed along a weir, over er which the water flows three inches deep. As the water passes sulphate alumina will be over pumped the water, which will a act as a coagulent.
