Scholarships are to be nominated by
Emperor William.
Commenting on the bequests, Mr..
Rhodes IN a coGicil ttelegraphed from
South Africa, said:
- For q. good understanding between
England, Germany and the United.
States will secure the peace OF the
world and educational relations form;

Mr.. Rhodes Wi isa remarkable and
vo1uminous document Of more than
$500 words Ittwas executed in 1899.
There is a codicil attached on theSday
of the deceased last departure from.
England and another cabled from
Cape Iown, leaving G44, 900 yearly to.
.keepsup the spot in the Matoppo Hills.
zwhereshiis remains are to be buried.
The will further directs thai. a rail
road extension be madeinto the Ma
toppo Hills so that visitors may ssgo.

Mr.. Rhodes e1plicitly says he is to.
Ebe buried in an aperture cut IN the.
solid rock, surmounted bya brass TAB
let bearing the words:
:ss HERE LIE THE REMAINS OF
CECIL JOHN RHODES.
No one else is to be buried there
who has not deserved we'll Of his
country.
Mr.. Rhodes beqneaths all his landed
property near Buluwayo and Sails
bury, both in M Matebeland, to trustees

Regarding the American scholar
ships Mr.. Rhodes says:
desire to encourage and foster an
appreciation Of the advantages which,
implicitly believe, VIII result from
a union Of the English-speahng peo-
pies thonghout the world, and to en-
courage in the students from the uni
ted States who will benefit by these
scholarships, an attachment to the
country from which they have sprung !;

land Of their ad option or birth. y
Territorial scholarships, once estab-
lished shan not lapse upon the admis-
sion Of the territory to Statehood.
Another provision is that no student
shall be qualified or disqualified for
election to a scho olarship on account Of
race OF religious opinion.
Mr.sRhodes desires that the students
should not patronize any particular

unexpected death of Berkeley county
prosecuting attorney. U. ,. Grant
Pitzer Thursday cast gloom
over the c,tv and county. The an
nouncement of no piece of news couid
have had more impressive effect on
the people. 1t came as q thunuerpoit
from the sky. so sudden and unex-
pected that the people could scarcely
believe it.
Mr.. Pitzer was taken sick thes2Sth
of last February. The following
Monday he retired to his bed. Inc
illness soon developed into a severe
case of typhoid fever He seemed TO
stand it we'll, and was getting along
as we'll as could he expected under
the circums stances until last Friday
week ago, when he suffered To-
lapse. which was followed BY vomlt-
ing spells. Following the relapse ne
again began to convalesce ana con-
tlnned to progress toward recovery
until about II o'clock Tuesday, wnen
he had three successive hemurrhages
of the bowels. These hemorrhages
were great strain on the ALREADY
weakened heart. All possible means
were resorted in order to sustain the
action of the heart, but all TO no
avail. The patient slowly continued
TO decllre. and at 10 minutes OF D
O'Clock Thursday he passed QUIET
ly and peacefully away. He was
coacious until the last aud apparent
Nv knew that the end was near. With
his ewes IN the direction of the sky ne
drew his last breath and passed
away. Although he was conscious
until the end, he WAS so weak Tor
about twenty minutes before ms
death that he could not speak or
move.
Thus ended the life of one of Berk-
eley rounty's most promising voung
linen. Already honored on manv oc'
Icasions, he was just in the prime
of life, with promising future.
His ambition and temperate life.
somblnod with his enticing energy
and ability, placed him foremost IN
he ranks of success aud made for
him career of great usefulness TO
