A NEGRO GIRL PREACHER.
Said to be Drawing Great Crowds as a
Reyiyalist.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Sept. 11.-Claretta
Nora Avery, a ten year old negro girl
~revivalist, continues to draw immense
crowds to hear her preach. She has
been engaged in this work in the east
ern part of the State for the last two
months, and many persons of both
races have been converted by her
preaching.
She began preaching at Raleigh, N.
c., about three months ago, but the
sentiment was so strong among the me-
groes against women, and especially
girls that she had to go to South Caro-.
lima. For two months she has been
conducting meetings in Cheraw, Oar
lington, Florence and other towns in
the eastern part of the State. She has
engagements ahead for months. She
was born in Washington, D. c., on
September 10, 1886. Her father, who
was an exhorter among the negroes
and who preached when he had no
other work to do, died soon after her
birth and her mother took her to the
Pineywoods of North Carolina, where
she passed the years like any other ne.
gro child.
Claretta has had only about six
months schooling in her life, but she is
able to read well and converse huently.
Her mother says she was always a
powerful" child to read the Bible,
and that she has wanted to preach ever
since she was about seven years old.
But this precociusness was discouraged
and it was only a few months ago when
Claretta announced positively that she
intended to preach, that she was al
lowed to have her way. At first she
preached entirely to negroes, but as her
fame spread abroad the white people
commenced to go to hear her until now
her congregations are about equally
composed of white and colored.
Her manners are quiet, but when
preaching she becomes very animated.
Her gestures are easy and graceful and
she speaks with great earnestness. The
negroes regard her with awe and at.
tribute TO her wonderful healing pow.
ers and supernatural gifts.

A Timely Reminder.

Each season forces upon our consid
GRAFTON its own peculiar perils to health.
The advent of fall finds many reduced
in strength and vigor, poorly prepared
to continue the business of life. The
stomach and bowels, the great high
way of animal economy, is especially
liable to disorder in the fall. The ner-
vous system has also suffered in the
struggle. Typhoid fever and malaria
in particular find in the fall that COM
bination of earth, air and water that
mark this season as especially danger
ous. The falling leaves, the ~decaying
vegetables, contribute their share of
contamination. Hoods SaI saparila
furnishes a most valuable safeguard at
these important points, and should be
used in the fall before serious sickness
has laid you low.

Death OF Mrs. f.. w, COOter.

Regretfully do we chronicle the death
of this loving, devoted wife and moth.
er, which occurred at the family resi-
dence on Indiana Avenue, on Wednes-
day, September A, 1895, at TAO P. M.
after a brief but severe attack of fever.
Mrs. Cooter's maiden name was Julia
Hamilton. She was born near Lewis
ton, Lewis County, Mo-, April Z, 1886.
In early womanhood she was married
to E. w. Cooter, with whom she en-
joyed about forty years of happy
welded life.
About fifteen years ago, with her
husband and family, she moved to
Columbus which has since then con
ti%nuously been the family home.
Mrs. Cooter was the mother of ten
children, and no higher tribute can be
paid to the memory of this Christian
mother, than the fact that she reared
these seven sons and three daughters
with such careful guidance as to fit
them for useful and honorable avoca-
tions in life. So far they have chosen,
respectively, the professions of teach
ing medicine, law and the ministry.
The youngest son, Hugh, is yet a stu
dent in Washington College, Tenn, of
which the eldest son, Rev. j. Cooter, is
President; De Witt and Guy havo
chosen law, Andrew is a practicing
physician at Miami, I. T. OF the two
sons who died, William II. was a law
yer of promise and John was a Presby.
terrain minister. or the three daugh-
tiers, Misses Ida and Belle are at home
and Miss Mollie is one of the successful
teachers in our city schools. Truly
may it be said of this noble mother,
that Her children may rise up and
call her blessed" Excepting Hugh,
all of the family were with her in her
fatal illness. But all the loving care
of devoted husband and children could
not silence the voice she must have
heard whispering well done thou
good and faithful servant, enter now
into the joys of thy Lord"
The funeral services at 3 O'Clock
Thursday afternoon were conducted by
Rev. w. H. Hills in the Presbyterian
Church, of which she had long been
a member.
To the bereaved husband and family
we join with many friends in extend
ing warmest sympathy Columbus

QUEEN OF THE WEST.
California, Where the Sun Gives Uncle
Sam a Good Night Kiss.

Glowing words of praise were uttered
by Rev. E. D. Dill, of San Francisco,
when he described California to the
Christian Endeavorers at Boston. Said
he: 4,
Were it not that Californians are all
as modest as v~iolets, outblushiug the
strawberries that grow there the year
around-I would tell you something of
California-though had l the tongue of
men, and even of real estate agents,
you would still say when you come to
us, THE half has not been told.' We
have a wonderful empire out there, we
have arabic land enough to support a
population of 10000, 900, and then
appropriation would be less dense
than that of Europe; an empire of u
own, as larger as Spain-larger than
the nine States of Delaware, Main,
Maryland, Massachusetts,, New York,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio and
Rhode Island combined. Then the sa-
lubrity of our climate make California
the sanitarium, the fairer Italy of the
world; its scenery is grander than any
beneath European skies, and les variety
of productions and climate is so won.
derful as to defy even the Californian
genius for exaggeration. The Sierras,
those snowy bulwarks of our State,
though their lower slopes are rich in
gold as their crests at eve with the gold
of sunset, and their further slopes are
lined with silver like those great crests
at noon, yet hoard no such wealth as
the soil yields in its billowing wheat
fields, its clustered vineyards, its orch
ards and orange groves bending with
fruit more golden than that of the Hes.
perides. Yonder the star of the EN-.
pire stops in its westward course and
stands still over our young State"

IL May Do as Much for You

Fred Miller, of Irving, ILL.,, writes
that he had a severe kidney trouble for
many years, with severe pains in his
back and also that his bladder was af-
fected. He tried many socalled kidney
cures, but without any good result.
About a year ago he began the use of
Electric Bitters and found relief at
once. Electric Bitters is especially
adapted to the cure of all kidney and
liver troables and often gives almost
instant relief. One trial will prove our
statement. Price only SOC for large

RAREsT OF ALL NOTES.
Harper's Round Table.

Harper's Round Table
In the fourteenth century the Chinese
government issued some paper currency.
Today there are probably but two notes
OF that issue extant. One is in the British
Museum and the other in the possession
of the Oriental Society of st. Petersburg.
These notes were issued in the reign of
Hung Woo, the founder Of the Ming
dynasty, who died in 1893. The face value
of the note is about dollar, and that
issue of paper currency was the only
one ever guaranteed by the Chinese gov
ernment. Today these notes are probably
the rarest and most valuable of currency
issues. Nearly all note collectors are
fully aware Of their existence and of their
value.
