DEATHS HARVEST.
MIR. Clark TYndaII.

The Zion neighborhOOd was again
visited by the grim visitor, Death,
last Monday morning, and this time
the frail body of Mr.. Clark Tyndall
was the victim. For the past year
he has been in feeble health, and
for some months no hope Of his
recovery had been entertained. His
family, his church and the COM
munity in which he lived have sus-
tanned an irreparable loss, and to all
we tender our deepest sympathy
The 68 years of his life were spent
in earnest endeavor to live up to his
standard of honesty, integrity and
uprightness in every relation of life,
and he was blessed with success and
prosperity through life, and his
memory will be hOnored and
revered by all who knew him. He
leaves deeply grieved wife and a
son, Mr.. w. G. Tyndall.
He was laid to rest at Zion Gene
terry, Tuesday afternoon. Rev. S. P.
Halves conducting the services.

Overdose of Morphine.

On Thursday evening of last week
Will Arnold was found in an I'M
conscious condition at the home
of Mrs. S. A. Underwood in Nash
vile. The unfortunate young man
had been suffering terribly with
toothache, and had taken morphine
to alleviate the pain, and it is
thought that he accidentally took
an overdose. Medical aid was sum-
mOned but he died about one hour
after being found.
Arnold lived IN Columbia for some
time, but for the last three years,
had been living with Mrs. Under
wood, who had adopted him. He
was about IS years old, and had a
mother and brothers and sisters
living in Newburn, Tenn.
The remains were brought to CO.
lumbia Saturday, and the funeral
services were held in st. Peters
Church by Rev. A. c. Killheffer.
Burial at Rose Hill.

Crazy Man Tried to Prevent His Chill

New YORK, July IA fire which
broke out in the baker shop of Edward
Manner, in Jersey City, so filled with
smoke the apartments and halls above
the bakery that it was difficult to
breathe.
William Zeigler had beeu i'll and the
flames and smoke drove him insane.
He fought with the policemen when
they attempted to rescue his children,
who lay about the apartment uncon-
scious from the effects of the smoke.
They held him and carried out the
children. Then he jumped out the
window and was probably fatally in.
jured, but dashed back into the build
ing and was captured and sent to q
hospital.
-Four of Zeigler's children were car
ried out, one being dead. The others
were sent to hospital.
Policeman Bunnell tainted and was
carried into the hospital. where it was
burned. He was also suffering from
the inhalation of smoke.
Mrs. Zeigler jumped from window

An Incident of the Republican Leagu 9
Clubs Convention at Detreit.

An Incident of the Republican Leagu Q
Clubs Convention at Detreit.
DETROIT. July l4-The National Re.
publican League convention has fair
attendance of delegates tor an "off
year" in politics Nearly all the states
are represented, although the quotas of
delegates are small in several instances.
The absence of party leaders who are
prominently identified with the admin.
istrative and legislative departments of
the national and state governments is q
conspicuous feature. The younger peo-
pie are present.
The radical partisanship of the league
men was illustrated in the fact that
Mayor Maybury, a Democrat, was not
invited to offer welcome to the dele.
gates, Colonel II NJ. Dufiield having
been selected instead by the local com.
mittep. In his address of welcome
Governor Pingrne voiced his we'll.
known opposition to favored corpora.
tiOns, while Colonel Duttield, who fol-.
lowed, took occasion to remind the
governor, who had said that the hope
of the country was in the people, that
1.-THE hope of the people is in the Re.
publican party and that, while it was
easy 10 bIOuSb ~ nduuCldD uRNluSJ NOE-
poratiOns, that the country could not
live without them. The addresses of
President Woodmansee and President
Diugley of the Michigan League, on
Of the chairman of the ways and means
committee, were enthusiastically re-
ceived, and the convention adjourned
early for the first day.
Last nights massmeeting in the con.
vention hall was entertained for the
most part by eXtGmporaneous speeches,
Senators Hanna and Thurston and some
Of the others scheduled to appear, not
being present.
The contest for the league presidency
goes merrily on Crawford of Ken
lucky and Fleitz Of Pennsylvania each
processes confidence in his election,
while Pollasky Of Chicago asserts he is
still in the race, Notwithstanding the
Illinois delegation is not giving him
united support.
The following telegram from Presi-
dent Mckinley TO President Wood
mansee was read:
II offer through you my heartiest
congratulations on the tenth annual
convention of the Republican League
and my continued best wis hes for the
increased usefulness and prosperity of
this worthy organization.
Today is also being held the conven-
ton of the Republican College League.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

FIJI bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twenty. four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
a diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen 1t is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Terhe is comfort in the knowledge
80 often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney reme-
dy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad eff.
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its most won
derful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price 50 cents aud one dollar.
For a sample bottle and pamphlet,
both sent free by mail, mention the
News-Democrat and send your full
post office address to DIR Kilmer & Co,
Binghamton, N. Y. The proprietors
of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of this offer.

GENERAL WANTS TO RULE CUBA.
He Is One of the Candidates For the
Presidency In the Election Now Pro-
ceeding-The Result win BE Known
In September.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, July 14.-Twelvs
Cubaus, the last survivors of an insur.
gent camp in the province of Camagua,
have reached Rio Nuevo in an open
boat. They were in a terrible condi-
tion of exhaustion.
They deny that Gomez is dead.
"The revolution" said Morena, one
of the party, us principally confined
at tho present moment to the Orient
and Camagua provinces.
"The Spanish are in possession of one
or two small places. but they suffer
very severely from the want of food
and ammunition. Their camps are
decimatod by sickness and numbers are
desertinR every day TO join the ranks
of the insurgents.
"They are afraid TO venture far, as
their forces are so small. and it is only
when column reintorces them that
they make sally in search of
supplies"
4 battle, according to the castaways,
was recently fought at Camagua in
which the insurgents under General
Garcia were completely successful over
almost double their number
and secured also large number of
rifles, with several cases of ammuni.
ton.
The town of Iguana was also the
scene of a terrible conflict, but General
Garcia and his troops were again vic.
torious. After driving out the Span
iards with great loss they took posses
sion of the town.
DR.. Vieta of the party says that the
Cuban troops are in good health and
have good supplies of food and ammu-
milton. All are well armed and the
principal difficulty is to keep them in
clothes.
The election of a president was COM
menced in the month of May, and there
has been a genuine display of patriotic
feeling on the subject among the Gu.
bans. The result will not be made
known until September. The candi-
dates are General Garcia, General
Masso and Seymour CapOle. DR.. Her.
nandez is also among the nominees.

QUAY'S FRIEND DAN,

The Man From Whom the Senator Said
He Would Never BE Apart-HastIngs'
Version of why Quay Decided to Run
For Reelection.
HARRISBURG. July Ex-Governor
Hastings has given out the following
statement in reply to the official an.
nouncement of Senator Quay that he is
candidate for reelection to the United
States senate:
Senators Quay and Penrose called
on me Saturday morning. The purpose
of their visit was to induce me to sign
the Becker bill socalled, relating to
Philadelphia, and they were very ur.
gent. When declined TO make any
promises Senator Quay announced that
he would change his mind and would
become an active candidate for United
States senator. l was not asked to sup
port him in his candidacy for United
States senator. The subject of my an.
proval or disapproval of the mercantile
tax bill was not mentioned in the inter.
view"
1t will be remembered that in these
dispatches yesterday it was stated that
Senator Quay, after intimating in
Washington that he might retire, an.
nounced, after visit to Harrisburg and
conference with the governor, that he
would be a candidate for reelection,
that Governor Hastings would support
him and that he and Hastings would
"never again be apart"
1t was expected in some quarters.
previous to Quay's announcement, that
he would retire in favor of Hastings.

Beardslee's Instructions Broad Enough
TO Cover Any Emergency.

Beardslee's Instructions Broad Enough
to Cover Any Emergency.
WASHINGTON, July lathe Benning-
ton, now on the California coast,is being
fitted out to take the place of the old
cruiser Marion at Honolulu. Though
there has been talk of sending the bat.
tleship Oregon TO Honolulu to reinforce
the Philadelphia, it is said, at the navy
department that no such orders have
been issued and it is more probable that
she will be kept in the neighborhood of
San Francisco in perfect condition and
ready for sea orders at short notice.
Admiral Beardslee will soon be relieved
at Honolulu by Admiral Miller, if the
latter now on his way home from Eng
land on the Brooklyn does not ask to
be relieved of his orders in view of his
daughters recent death.
1t is said Admiral Beardslee has not
been sent any orders recently. When
he went out to Honolulu he was charged
to maintain the status quo there, hav
ing in mind the fact that the president
intended to submit an annexation
treaty. That was before there was any
idea that Japan would lodge protest
and, though the admiral's orders hold
good at this time, this explanation, it is
believed, will divest the fact of any
hostile meaning towards Japan.
