nPATH OF A YOUNG MAN.
roorer Hill Passes Away After
an Illness of Several Days.

Cooper A. Hill, the eldest son OF
Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Hill, died at the
home of his parents about o'clock last
Sunday morning The deceased was
inst budding into a promising young
manhood and would have been twenty
wears of age on the 21st day of
November. He died after a ten days
illness with malarial fever and was in
+orre6 at Brentwood Monday morning,
Rev. ]. r. Snyder ana Rev. K.
Reid performing the burial rites.
Cooper was just such a physical man
as Won did not expect to die; splen-
did picture of health and strength,
with mind in keeping with his
nhvsioue. his future was not associat-
ed with the idea of death. He was the
idol OF his mothers heart, tilial son,
a loving brother, a true friend. a genial
and afable companion With a splen-
did career before him, he has been
halted on the threshold and leaves us
wondering at the wisdom in the taking
of one who was so much to others in
this world. But Him who gave this
life saw fit to take it away, and as we
stand in the shadow of this sorrow
with Whittier we feel that
We know not where Thy islands lift
Their fronded palms in air;
But this we know, we cannot drift
Beyond Thy love and care.
1t is better to have known Cooper
and lost him than never to have known
him at all. The world is made poorer
by his absence, and the whole com
munity shares with his loved ones their
sad bereavement

A New Cotton Bun.

A report from Mississippi says that
a new bug has made its appearance in
the cotton fields of that state, and that
much damage is being done by it. The
agricultural department will be called
upon to exterminate the visitors and a
good deal of experimenting will be
done until a remedy is found. BY that
time the chances are that some other
sort of plague will make It's appearance
and the bugs, weevils,> cotton worms
and "wilt' will continue their crusade
to keep down the supply of the feecy
staple.

 I have been requested to collect his- torical data of our regiment for publi- cation in-book form by Hon. Thomas M. Owen, Director Archives. Montgomery.

This matter IS or supreme importance to you and your children. as we'll as to the State. We have nothing upon which to rely except memory, but even with that we can res- cue the names of hundreds Of our regi- ment from oblivion. and put them in the war records of the State where they Will be preserved forever.

ENLISTED AS WHITE NEGRO CLAIMS HE WAS FORGED
 TO LEAVE ARMY. Arrested as a Deserter, Asher Mc- Carroll Says, He Feared Sol
 diers Would Lynch Him. 7. Is an Odd Prisoner.

Asher McCarroll who was arrested last night by Patrolmen Jordan and Roberts admits that he is deserter from the United States army.
 McCarroll is a negro with an almost white skin. He tells a strange story. He says that he enlisted in the army as a white man and went among white sol. liers. In some way the soldiers of his regiment discovered that he was ne- gro and he had to fee for his life. He said that he had to leave his regiment to keep from being lynched by the white soldiers. with whom he had associated. This is McCarrolls story. that may or may not be true. It is ~corroborated to the extent that he is white enough to be taken for a white man.
 The police authorities think that Me- Carroll is crazy. He talked in a ramb- ling way of mobs after he had been put in a cell and asked the poAce to protect him from a mob of soldiers that was foi- lowing him. He is an odd prisoner and the police hardly know how to classify him.

Steel Bars May Advance Agafn-Pig Iron Still Quiet with Little Buying.

Cleveland, O.. March 27.-The Iron Trade Review. discussing trade condi- tions In its current issue, says:
 50 much has been done fin iron and steel for 1902 that heavy buying move- ments are no longer to be expected Thero is still enough busines ahead to make changes in the prices that may yet come as matter of comment for wants consumers know what their cost will be. and whatever advances may come the middle man. rather than the mills. will be the gainer.
 The pig iron market has still the quieter aspect that has distinguished March from February.

We hear of 15,oOo ton sale at this figure.
 In Central Western markets North ern sellers of foundry iron and some Southern sellers are getting consider able premiums for iron of second and third quarter delivery. while s17.5o at Northern furnaces Is now the usual ba- sis for delivery for No. foundry iron in the latter part of the year.
 The basic and forge irons have been fin demand. Virginia basic has been talk en In considerable lots. Gray forge has sold at SIS at Pittsburg. and this ad- vance, as well as the advance in scrap. which has become more diaicult to get. has led to a higher level for bar iron, s1.so at Pittsburg being maintained by one important producer while another is still selling at $170
 The recent advance in steel bars to s1.60. which will apply to large iots after April 1, may be accompanied. 1t is in. timated. by an advance of $1.65 or $l. at Pittsburg on ordinary lots
 The heavy buying of bars in the past three weeks and the large tonnage un- der negotiation to be closed before April seem to have modified to some extent the conservative purpose of large inter- ests and the market is creeping up in a way that has not been counted on.

THE STRENUOUS LIFE
A Great Strain.

No one dis putes the fact that we are living In rapid age; it Is rush. rush, rush from morning until night. and com petition is so fierce that the struggle does not cease until the machine is worn out. Women, too, even when surrounded by every comfort become infected by the common spirit and what with their clubs and many social duties have no time to give thought to their physical well-belng. until they are sudd nly. brought to a sharp realization of the fact that nothing in their lives is so important as the at tention to correct, or rational living. It may surprise the readers to learn that women are more prone to piles than men. and in most cases. because it is difficult to impress upon them the importance or regular movements of the bowels; irregu- larity means straining at stool, and straining means piles, with the certainty Cunder the usual methods of treatment) that the sufferer will have them always with her." by usual methods" is meant the application of salves and lotions. or tas q last resorD a surgical operation.

The fatalities resulting from this disease within the past few years have sufficiently aroused doctors to the importance of giving the disease the closest investigation.
 Duffy'l Pure Malt whiskey is the only abso- lute cure for grip. influenza. asthma, bron- chitis. catarrh. consumption and all diseases of the throat and lungs; 1t prevents compli- leaves in the system. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey not only kills the germs. but it stim- ulates the blood, aids digestion and tones the action of the heart.
 The voluntary testimony received from thou sands of our grateful patients Is proof posi- tive that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is the greatest known remedy for the grip and all diseases of the throat and lungs and all vast ing diseases from whatever causes. Doctors, ministers, public speakers and a number of the leading temperance women praise Duny's Pure Malt sWhiskey for the great good 1t has accomplished in saving lives.
