SENATOR HARRIS DEAD.

United States Senator John G.
Harris, of Tennessee, died at his
here sse in Washington, D. c., on
Thursday last.
"Senator Harris was last in the
senate chamber about ten days ago,
but was unable to stay for any
length of time, and had to be taken
home in a carriage. During the
past six months the senator had
been unable to attend to his du-
ties only at intervals, having been
away from the city several times
sndeavoring to recuperate.
Probably no man in public life
had been identified with more Of
the history of Sthis country than
had Senator Harris. He had al
most completed his 10th year, hav-
ing been born in February, 1918,
and first became a member of con-
gress in 1S49. His congressional
career thus began earlier than that

HOW TO BE ELECTED.

Our sometimes level headed
contemporary, the Abbeville Press
and Banner, (and we are all level
headed at times) has the follow
ing to say of the last and the pres
emf Senatorial campaign:
"We have no sort of doubt that
John Gary Evans lost his election
because he submitted to personal
abuse and insult. 1t ls fair 10
presume that he did 40, as he sup
posed, in obedience to a public
sentiment. In this ne was mis-
taken. If he had resented the
insults offered him at Abbeville
the election returns would have
been quite diffarent-in this coun-
ty at least. This added to the
fact, that Earle refused to take
that sort of talk changed the pop
ular vote. If Evans had defend-
ed himself as Earle did,.he would
have been overwhelmingly elected
on the first ballot. That is our
opinion, based on the evident re.
suit of the canvass at Abbeville.
At present there is no sort of
doubt that McLaurin would lead
all the other candidates-even If
he could not poll a majority over
all.
But ifhe proposes to take in
suits on every stump in the State
he will not be elected.
the Executivs Committees at
the different places of speaking
should demand the Observance OF
the amenities, and failing to do
so, the insulted candidate should
hit somebody's nose, or quit the
race"

the same day as that of the pri-

further mangle old Edgefeld for
that purpose and by SO doing that
portion that was required, therein
lived and had their residences,

DIR. BRA1sLIN RECEIVERS.
The Glad Tidings Come From Colorado
Springs, Where He Has Been offered
an Important Charge.
(From the Examiner. New York.

The friends of Rev. Edward Braislin,
ID. D., will be glad to learn of his recovery
from the pulmonary trouble that made
it necessary for him to abandon his
useful work in the East two years ago,
and take up his residence in Colorado
Springs. At the time of his collapse DIR.
Braislin was entering his eighth year as
pastor of the Washington Avenue Baptist
Church, of Brooklyn, N. Y, where his
active work brought him considerable
prominence. Previous to his connection
with this church, DIR. Braislin was for
many years pastor of the Baptist Church
at Newton Centre, Mass, his work in this
section being still fresh in the minds of
colleagues.
Unlike many victims of consumption,
DR.. Braislin fully realized his condition
and Travelled around with the hope that a
change of climate and surroundings would
be helpful in checking the progress of the
disease As his health continued to fail
all hope of work was abandoned, and a
trip to Colorado Springs planned. 1t was
about this time that he first learned of
Cannabis Saliva, DR.. Stevens East In
dian Consumption Cure to which is due
the real credit for his recovery.
In writing of his experience DIR. Brais-
lin says:
II am practically well today, but when
I commenced the Cannabis Saliva treat
ment, | was not half the man am now
constitution builder equal to it, and
shall be glad if any word of mine can do
good to any consumptive.
Through his discovery of Cannabis Sa-
tiva DIR. Stevens has become undoubtedly
benefactor to the human race Many
despairing cons umptives having been re-
stored to health by its use.
w. A. NoyeS, S23 Powers Block, Roches-
ter, n. Y, under whose direction DR.
Braislin treated himself, has been untir-
ing in his efforts to place this remedy in
the hands of sufferers. A trial package
is sent free by him to all worthy people,
the great good resulting therefrom being
inestimable. The benefit to DIR. Braislin
is furth ar vouched for by the following
announcement of his recovery which APP
peared in the Colorado Springs Gazette,
of February Sth 1897:
1.-THE First Baptist Church yesterday in
vited Rev. Edward Braislin, d. D., who
has been a resident of this city for the
past two years, to become its pastor The
action of the church was unanimous, and

CLARA NJ. RRAMRLE.

CLARA M. SAUNDERS, the daughter of
William and Lucy Van Glider Saunders,
was born in Meigs county, Ohio, May %,
1872. She died in Marysville, Montana,
Jan. 81, 1897, at the age of "a years, s
months and days. Her early life was
spent in country home, surrounded by
loving friends and relatives. Her home
was well supplied with good literature,
and this together with the common school
aided her in obtaining fair education.
At the age of sixteen she secured her
first teachers certificate, and shortly
after she, began teaching. After this she
received.some schooling away from home
and attended Buchtel College one year,
supplementing her school work by much
study at home. At the age of eighteen
she united with the Universalist church
5, 1894 to John X. Bramble, of Montana,
with whom she lived in affectionate COM
panionship for two happy years till the
death angel called her.
AS a writer of poetry she acquired a
fame that is accorded to but few, both in
her native county and State. Mr.. B. o
Fowler, who has lately retired from the
editorship of the Arena, was a valuable
friend to her when she first began pub
fishing her poems. He was the editor of
the Spectator, in which many of her ear
lier poems appeared. She leaves fond
mother, two sisters and one brother, who
with her sorrow-stricken husband, mourn
her early departure; also a little daugh-
ter only "a hours old at the time of her
death The remains were brought back
to her childhood's home for interment.
The Rev. Carrie w. Brainard, of Little
Hooking, officiated at the funeral, Feb. 10,
