Catarrh is not
A Luxury
Or A NECESSITY.

Catarrh makes man ridiculous-it makes him
an offensive nuisance and it makes him danger
ously sick. 1t is pretty sure to bring on consump
tion pneumonia or at least throat affection
You can not afford either but you can afford the
cure for it. 1t is DIR. Agnew'S Catarrhal Powder.
1t relieves a cold or catarrh or cures headache
in 10 minutes. Don't hawk and spit and disgust
your friends but cure yourself by the use OF this
remedy.

ton.

Special to Charlotte Observer.
Columbia, S. c., Feb. 12.-The
House of Representatives to day
passed by unanimous vote, Mr..
Moses bill to appropriate $50, :
900 toward the erection of an
equestrian statue to the memory
of Wade Hampton. Tho apbro-
priation becomes available when
SO, 900 additional shall have been
laised by subscription. A large
part of this voluntary fund is now
in hand.
The statue is to be located on
the State capitol grounds, perhaps
in front of the capitol, and will,
it is thought, be patterned after
the statue of General Lee, in
Richmond. Although the State
has just passed through a trying
time financially on account of ap.
preparations for expositions, gen.
eral elections, etc., this appro
priation meets the approval of thu
entire State. The Senate will ac
! 'favorably on the bill.

Camden M0urnS Capt. Halle
A Gallant Old Confederate And
Hero Of The Crater.

Special to News and Courier.
Camden, Feb. 10. The gal
liant old commander of the Flat
Rock Guards, Capt. G. 9. Halle,
died at the home of his son, Mr..
b. Frank Halle, Sunday evening.
No man was more highly esteem
ed throughout Kershaw County
than was Capt Halle. He was
intrenched in the affections of the
old Confederate veterans to de.
gree that it would be difficult to
find words to express.
A gentleman, speaking Of him
to your correspondent number
OF years ago, said he was as brave
as julius Caesar and rs honest
and true man as the sun ever
shone upon" This was a high
estimate of the man, but those
who knew him intimately would
not hesitate to say that he mea.
sured up to this standard.
| A one-legged veteran, standing
by his coffin, looking into his life
less face, said there is lot of
history wrapped up in that form,
which will, perhaps, never be
known. He played the part Of a
hero at the Crater, but was too
modest to tell the story of his ca
reer himself.
Capt. Halle was born Jan. II,
1924, in the Hanging Rock Sec
ton of this county. For many
years he followed Surveying in
conjunction with his farm.
When the war broke out he
raised volunteer company,
known as the Flat Rock Guards,
and went to the battlefelds of
Virginia as part of Kershaw's
"a South Carolina regiment. Af-
ter the reorganization in 1862 he
served with the 23d Regiment,
Col. H. l.. Benbow's. He was
captured at Five Forks on the 1st
OF April, 1865, and was sent to
Johnson's Island, on Lake Erie,
and was confined there until the
middle Of June after the surren.
der.
Afterwards he returned home
and began work upon his farm
again.
Capt Halle took conspicuous
part IN the redemption of South
Carolina in 1876.
After the war he was elected
county commissioner, but was
not permitted to serve. He serv-
ed as county treasurer for eight
years. In 1894 he was elected
Probate Judge and was reelected
to this position in 1898 without
opposition, which position he con-
tinued to fill very acseptably up
to the time of his death.
Capt Halle was married March
20, 1s49, to Miss Nary A. VIII.
liams. His wife predeceasel him
several years. Five children sur
vive him-Richard H. Halle, of
Columbia; B. F. Halle, OF Cam
den; John r. Halle, of Heath
Springs; Mrs. r. A. Mcdowell,
of Camden, and Mr.. Thomas G..
