TATUM, Executor. THE ORIGINAL LAXATIVE COUGH SYRUP KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE HONEY and flopez See en Every Bottle Dad THE NEW PRISON PLANS FOR NEW JAIL. MR. MILBURN'S ADOPTED. The County Commissioners Decided Upon Plans Yesterday.

The county commissioners held a called meeting yesterday and adopted plans for the new jail which it was decided at a previous meeting to build. The plans of Frank P. Milburn, the Southern Railway's architect, were adopted and the complete plans will be in the hands of the commissioners by October 15. Bids will then be advertised for and as soon as the contract is given work will begin on the new Mr. Milburn appeared before the commissioners in person and his plans were adopted as the most desirable and economical.

The structure will cost about $18,000 and will be located in the rear of the present jail. When it was first proposed to build the new jail the site where it will stand there was a protest from the vestry, of St. Luke's Episcopal church but this has been withdrawn and no objection is now offered.

Rev. J. M. L. LYERLY, Ph.

D. CRESCENT, N. C. CAPT. J.

A. FISHER DEAD VETERAN ANSWERS LAST CALL Realized Two Hours Before His Death That the Sands Were Passing. "I will not live but a few hours at the best; I may be dead in half an With these words Capt. Jacob. A.

Fisher, one of the best known farmers of Rowan county turned to the members of his family gathered at his bedside Tuesday morning at half past seven o'clock. When he had finished speaking he slept. The words were prophetic. At 11:30 Capt. Fisher breathed his last.

BEGINNING OF THE END. Capt. Fisher was stricken ten days ago by fever and last Friday pneumonia set in. The seriousness of his condition became apparent from the first and for two days the end has been looked for hourly. But this veteran of the most gigantic contest of arms that the American continent has known fought bravely, though uncomplainingly, and stayed the hand of death for days by sheer force of will power.

He did not rebel at his fate but wanted to live for the sake of those near and dear to him. A LEADING CITIZEN. Capt. Fisher has been prominent in the affairs of Rowan county for a half century. He entered the army of the Confederacy as a member of Company F.

First Cavalry and made a record for intrepidity and courage unsurpassed by an soldier on either side. Emerging from the conflict with shattered fortune he set about agriculture and soon had a reputation as one of the most practical and successful farmers in the county. And this reputation was not diminished by time. THE FULLNESS OF YEARS Capt. Fisher was in his eth year but age had dealt gently with him.

Until stricken by his last illness he possessed the vigor of a man thirty years younger. He loved the free life of the farm and upon it he spent all his days. Capt. Fisher's home was noted for its hospitality. He loved the companionship of his friends, young and old, and the Fisher home was the scene of social gatherings innumerable.

THE CITIZEN. Capt. Fisher always took a lively interest in politics and was for years a leader of his party. He did not insist upon political preferment, but his counsel was eagerly sought and generally heeded. He was a pillar in the Lutheran church and had been an officer in his local church since young manhood.

He had frequently attended the sessions of Synod, in which his common sense and sagacity were potent factors. All told, Capt. Fisher was a man among men; upright, courageous, generous, loyal- -he bequeaths to his posterity a name that stands for the highest type of citizenship. He was conscious to the last moment and recognized those at his dying couch as the last breath was taken. All the members of the family were with him when the end came.

The surviving children are: Mrs. R. A. Yoder, of Lincolnton; Mrs. I.

V. Miller, of Albemarle; Ers. F. R. L.

Shaeffer, of Rowan county; Mrs. Ed Smyre of Newton; Messrs. John George A. and Lewis Fisher. The funeral will be held from Grace Lutheran church Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, Rev.

H. A. Trexler officiating. 2 IN FAMILY DIE MRS. SWICEGOOD DEAD.

FOLLOWS SON TO THE GRAVE. A Long Illness Ended---The Funeral Sunday Afternoon. Mrs. S. J.

Swicegood, who has been in a semi-conscious condition more than a week, died at her home on South Main street, Saturday evening at 8 o'clock. Death came as a relief to the tired body of this good woman. She had up: under racking physical suffering for months and years with fortitude and uncomplainingly, knowing that her remaining days were few. The shadow has been cast heavily upon the Swicegood home twice within a week. Only one week ago Sunday a message was received from New Orleans announcing the sudden death of the oldest son of Mr.

and Mrs. Swicegood, Mr. Lloyd W. Swicegood, in New Orleans. The mother lay in an unconscious condition in one room of the home while the burial service was being said at the side of her boy.

This last anguish was spared her and she died as peacefully as though falling upon sleep. Mrs. Swicegood was born in Salisbury on the 4th day of 0c- tober, 1844, and had spent her life here. She was the of Mr. and Mrs.

Daniei J. Shaver, her father during his lifetime being one of the best known and most substantial men of the munity. She was married to Mr. Swicegood in 1862, and six living children, with the aged and bereaved husband, survive. They are Mrs.

H. C. Williams, of Charlotte, Mrs. C. H.

Dudley, of South Carolina, Mrs. T. A. Coughenhour, Mrs. Claude Frederick and Mrs.

W. Ross Cox, of Salisbury, and Mr. S. Preston Swicegood, of Savannah. All these were at her bedside when the end came.

Mrs. Swicegood was an indulgent, devoted mother and wife and her whole life was spent in dispensing cheer and happiness to others. She belonged to Salisbury's old regime and her death marks the passing of another of the already badly broken ranks of those who were most closely identified with the city's history for a quarter century when it was a great household of families all having common interests and sympathies. The funeral was held from the First Methodist church, of which Mrs. Swicegood was a long-time member, Sunday afternoon at half past four o'clock, Rev.

Dr. J. C. Rowe officiating, and the body was laid away in a grave beside the newly made mound covering the remains of her son. MR.

WINECOFF REMEMBERED Kinspeople Dine Him on The Day of His 45th Anniversery. Mr. A. J. Winecoff's forty-fifth anniversery was happily celebrated at the instance of a number of his kinspeople, Friday.

Mr. Winecoff was not permitted to the confidence of those who planned a dinner in his honor. Eight relatives were at the board when Mr. Winecoff took the seat assigned to the guest of honor at half past one o'clock. The occasion was full of pleasure for all.

Mayor Boyden's docket was light again this morning. But four defendants were in the dock and all were charged with minor offenses. DIES FOR CHILDREN. A MOTHER'S BRAVERY FUTILE Attempted to Escape Flames With. Children but was Fatally Burned.

Jersey City, Sept. 15. -Mrs. Mary Peterson, aged 35, is dying and her two children are dead, following a fire which partially destroyed their home on York street early this morning. The mother, hoping to save the lives of her children, Frank 5 years old and a baby seven months, took them in her arms and crawled under the bed.

The firemen were attracted by the mother's groans and discovered them. The boy was so badly burned that he died as he was being carried down the ladder and the baby died as it laid beside its mother in an ambulance on the way to a hospital. The mother is so badly burned that she cannot live. The husband and father was away at the time, ONE-ARMED MEN'S UNION. Chicago's Maimed Railroaders to Demand Comforts of Life.

The list of demands to be filed with the railroad companies will embrace cushioned seats for members with stumps; ice water in summer time and awning shades to protect the tenders from the heat of the sun and the dampness. Talked in His Sleep. Sibley, Iowa, Special, to. New. York Herald.
