L. Tyson, of this place, was killed by a stroke of lightning on the baseball grounds here this evening. He and other members of the team were practicing on the grounds when a cloud gathered and just before the rain gathered the stroke got in its fatal work on Tyson, who was in the open feild playing shortstop. lie was hurried to Charles Cole drug store, where physicians worked for an hour in hopes in restoring life, I'llt without results.

I would, like to-be at "Walkerville today to hear the good parsons tell us about John Knox, John Calviu, and George Yit-f eild.

Many a time when the Rev. D. P. Robinson- was babtiz-ing an infant lie would say to his parents, 'train up a child when' he -is young iu the. way he should go up and when he is old he will not depart from it." The descendants of these children are the ineinbres of the "Walkers-ville church.

Little did I think when I was a boy and went to the big speek-ings'at Wilson's old store that 1 would ever hear of such a day as is there today. Instead of seeing men, who are mighty in the Scriptures, you saw the old woman witli her ginger cake wagon, and hard eider by th barrel. Jesse Keeter, Hill Viekory and Pumpkin Felt Starnes were the olnwna fthe circus. The can didates always spoke in the porch of the Williams. house, lne vard was paled iu and the people had to go in the front gate and sit under the shade of the trees to hear the speaker.

I'nele Pumpkin Felt, after taking on a top load of cider, concluded he would go up and hear the candidates. A plank was across the gate to keep the walk from washing out, and the hard cider bad-had raised the sight of Uncle Pumpkin so high he never saw the plank, but stumpted his toe and overset himself. Allen Richardson proposed to help him up but he refused. The cider had paralyzed Uncle Pumpkins tongue; he wanted to say, "bring jiie a man with a principle," bin on account of his tongue he said, "bring me a man with a prin-sul." Allen asked him who that man would be, and he said, "bring me Eli Kichnrdson," and Uncle F.li helped him up. 1 always thought any kind of a man would do to help up a -drunk man, but Uncle Pumpkin differed with me.
