 Youth and May Live 90 Years More.
 At the age of % George W. Golf. who lives near Punta tSerda, Fla, has grown young again. Up toa year ago MT. Golf was blind, partially deaf and bald and had been so for many years. About that time, however, he suddenly recovered his eyesight and hearing, and his hair began to grow. Now Mr. Golf hears and sees as well as he ever did, and his head is covered with growth of black hair. As his eyesight strengthened and his hair grew marked change occurred i'll Mr Goff's physical condition, and from being u decrepit man, hardly able to walk. he became as strong and active as | youth of 20 years. Tine wrinkles on his skin disappeared, and he now looks fresh and youthful.
 The case has puzzled the physicians They say the man is entirely rejuvenat- ed and may live 90 years longer They assert that the old tissues have been re- placed by new, and that physically MT. Golf is not more than % years old So youthful did Mir Golf feel that last week he married handsome young girl. To look at the couple one would never suspect that there was any diff ference ill their ages, although the groom is 70 years older than his bride.
 Mir. Golf was born ill Georgia i'll 1805 He fought in the Indian war un- der Andrew Jackson and remembers Old Hickory we'll. He also was in the Mex ican and civil wars and was wounded at the battleef Buena Vista St Louis Globe Democrat.

Obituary.

On last Sabbath morning, Mrs. Mary
Agnes Simpson, wife Of Mi. T. r. simp-
son, ''fel asleep in Jesus" Just as the
doors of our earthly temples were opening
to receive the worshipers Of God, the min
istering angels threw wide open the pesrly
gates of the upper sanctuary and ushered
her in and gave her place among those
who, like her, "had come out Of great
tribulation, and had washed their robes
and made them white In the blood of the
Lamb" She always appreciated and en-
joyed the worship OF the God she loved.
Like David, "she was glad when they said
to her, como let us go unto the house of
the Lord" II the Sabbath was her delight
here, how much more would she enjoy
the Sabbath there Everything promised
and hoped for here, now enjoyed to the
full. stThank God for me' was the last
request she made Of friends here; there, in
the immediate presence of her Saviour, she
can thank Him as We could not; for now
she understands all, and knows that all
things worked together for her good. She
now realizes that her sfflictions of EARTH
as protracted and severe as they were, are
not worthy to be compared with tho Tex
ceediDg eternal weight Of glory" into
which she has entered.
Sn6 was OOTu NOVemuer IL, 1000, anu
was therefore, Sc years, two months and
two days old.
She leaves husband, two daughters,
two sons and three sisters to mourn her
loss. Many loving friends (ror all who
knew he1 loved her) mingled their tears
with relatives, for all felt that not only an
affectionate wife, tender mother and sweet
sister had been taken, but that kind
neighbor and warm friend had gone.
Our loss, though, is her gain, 30 We MUIR
mer not. "The Lord gave and the Lord
hath taken away, blessed be the name OF
the Lord" PASTOR.

Mrs. Henrietta M. King, Of Corpus
Christi, Tex, owns 1875 square miles of
land in Texas, about million and quar-
ter of acres. She inherited this vast
domain from her husband, Richard
King, who was born in that State in 1925.
After living an adventurous life he
bought what was then known as the San
ia Gertrude's ranch, in Texas, and by
shrewdness and ability, became very
wealthy. When he died, in 1885, all his
property went to his wife, daughter Of
the Rev. Hiram mberlain, who built
the first Presbyterian church on the Rio
Grande. Mrs. King is about sixty years
of age, and is woman of kindly in
stincts and admirable character. She
lives very plainly and does not spend a
1.-THE of her income. Her land alone is
now worth $5 ,000, 900, and it will be worth
much more when it is devoted to viticul-
ture, for which it is said to be we'll adap-
ted.

Pistol Practice In Edgefleld

COLUMBIA, S. c., January 15.-Colum-
bia has been excited all day over the
news of shooting scrape at Edgefeld
yesterday afternoon between Capt. J. s.
Tillman, nephew of Ex-Governor B. r.
Tillman, and Bernard B. Evans, brother
of Governor Evans.
For some reason, the news of the affair
was suppressed in Edgefield and did not
reach here until today. Even now par
ticulars are meagre and the efforts Of
newspaper men to get the facts are not
successful.
It seems there has been feud between
Tillman and Evans for over a year.
Tillman owed debt and few days ago
Evans began suit on it. Yesterday after
noon the two young men met in the Office
of a lawyer to try and adjust their differ
ences. The feud was renewed and each
drew pistol and began shooting. The
story is that Tillman shot first the bullet
going through the hat of Evans. Each
man fired three rounds at his antagonist.
Evans was shot in the right shoulder and
Tillman In the cnin and in one side.
Evans is not seriously hurt, and the ex-
tent of Tillman's injuries are not known.

little children, survive her. On account
of the bad weather the remains we're not

carried to Ebenezer Churchyard and there
laid to rest beside those of her parents and
other loved ones, Rev. @. V. Barnes con-

many friends Of the bereaved husband and
little ones in extending our sympathies.
