FATAL ACCIDENT,


A melancholy accident took place just

went to switch out some cars at the
west end OF the yards, known as the
material yard, and In order 10 81 the
cara he wanted he AAA 70 mAke several
switchas. He couessa al The csrs Co
gether and pulled them out, and then
kicked several cars on another track.
In backing the balance Of the carr onto
the adjacent track he was walking
along by the side of the cars and did
not observe that the car he had left
on the other track had started to move
toward him and just as he got to the
switch frog they collided. and he was
caught between them and badly crush
ed.
A force from the roundhouse helped
to pick him up and convey him to the
depot, where medical aid was obtained,
but to NO purpose. as 1t was at once seen
that he was hurt beyond recovery. He
was conscious for q little while and
was taken to his home In Colleen ad-
dition, and his last words, Just before
he reached home, were that his arm
and leg hurt him and he wanted to
know how much farther he had to go.
He lived about three hours.-Sherhan

E. Gillette returned from the Hills

Fish anon and two men who were
fighting it became nearly surrounded
by burning timber. They started a
Quick retreat and at the same time a
bear came out of the brush on the same
errand and went directly toward the
two doubly scared fugitives. The men
having two awful dangers to flee from
made good time until they struck some
tall timber and climbed a tree. The
bear, no doubt thinking their example
a good one, did the same and selected
the very same tree. The men took the
upper part Of the tree and the year reid
the lower portion and was in no way
| disturbed for the men were sure that
their friends wanted their assistance
in fighting fire and to stop to kill the
bear would be an act for which they
would be chided when they reached the
band OF fire fighters. They concluded
to let the bear retain his position I'M
til they should talk the matter over
with their friends, and climbed to the
outer ends OF a large branch and drop
ped to the ground. They were scratch
ed and bruised but were able to make
good time and finally regained an open
ing that led them to their friends. The
fire burned over the territory that they
had left and the next day the bear was
found at the foo Of the tree dead with
no hair left and the body showing the
effects of a very hot time. As this Is
a true story that ends with the death
Of the bear. we have no doubt that our
readers will hesitate to call on Mr.. Gil

of Long Island, the daughter of John
Lyon Gardiner, millionaire, and one
of the loveliest young women in New
York's "40O." When the war broke
out she joined the Red Cross recruits,
and started quickly for Cuba to nurse
the sick and wounded. Her great
work came when she returned on the
Concho, that pestilential, miserable
floating horror house of disease. 1t
was one of her assignments. How
this young, gently-nurtured girl, fresh
from cotillons and the opera and debu-
tantes' receptions, nursed the sick,
bandaged wounds, cooked broth, strok-
ed feverish foreheads, wept over the
dead and dying, is story heroic and
inspiring, for the patients she nursed
and cared for were all stricken with
typhoid and yellow fever. AS she left
the ship the poor soldiers raised all
the breath in their weak lungs to cheer
her and ask God to bless her.
One of the Concho victims says:
"Thst tall nurse with the brown
hair did all she could. She hadn't
much medicine or grub to give US, but
she gave what she could and never
left us. What did they call her ?"
"Sister Adele"
"Sister Adele! That's right. And
she was that firm, even if she was
tender-hearted. Say, I seen her cry
hard when McGann and Senner died" J."
Their stories always revert to the
tall, brown-h haired, sweet-faced nurse,
and it was with some awe and consid-
erable disappointment that they learn
ed and passed the news down the line
that she was one of the richest and
loveliest girls in New York's "40O."-

WAR
is RAGING

1t is necessary to keep the plow on the
move, and while the drums are beating
and the air is filled with martial music
and the army is organizing for the front,
we should not become SO demoraliZed as
to allow our farms and various business
es to become disorganized. The soldiers
will fight the war, while we speed the
plow." Let us prepare our lands with
the same thought and care as the general
and his staff prepares for battle let US
sow an abundant crop of wheat, oats and
pease, together with grasses and clover,
and the fields will bloom in all their
glory while the martial music of the war
will be drowned with the fairy like song
of the birds in the spring, and peace and
plenty will most likely be our reward.
GUANO AND ACID are as essential to
the success of farming as gunpowder is to
war, and we have both in almost unlimi-
ted quantities, and we would be glad to
supply those who expect to begin cam
paign for any of the above crops. The
Guano and Acid will show the proper
analysis, and will produce bird-singng
results in the spring. Call and see me.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an int1amed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

Uncle George d. Tillman Still Able to
Move Around.
Greenwood Index.
The campaign liar who has circulated
the report that the Hon. George D. Till
man was very feeble old man, and if
elected governor would not be able
to properly discharge the duties of the
Office on that account, should be taken
out and shot. For it is base slander.
Colonel Tillman passed through
Greenwood the other day on his way
to Newberry to attend the state cam
paign meeting at that place. He
stood as erect and his eyes was just
as keen as that of any man of half his
age, and he appeared in the best of
health and spirits.
As the train for Newberry was leav-
ing Colonel Tillman stood on the rear
platform waving adieu to some friends.
A gentleman ran toward the train with
two heavy valises, but was unable to
get them on board as the train, by that
time, had attained considerable speed.
Colonel Tillman reached down and
got one valise and tossed it on the
platform and then giving the gentle
man his hand pulled him up on the
steps.
1t was feat requiring good deal
of agility and could not have been
performed by "a feeble and tottering
old man."
If the charge of Uncle Georges fee
bleness is the only thing that has kept
any man from making up his mind to
vote for him, let that man be informed
now. Your Uncle George is in perfect
condition, both mentally and physi-
cally.

Charleston Post In this last con-
