Death of'a. Promising Young Man.

Williamston, Jan. 1.-One of the
saddest deaths that has ever occurred
within the town limits, and one of the
most shocking wss that of Jamie p,
the 17-year- old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jas. p. Gossett. who died at 3'o'clock
this morning. after IN illness of only
three days duration. Jamie returned
home from Clemson College last week
to epend the holidays with his parenta
and occupy his accustomed place in
the family circle, and it wac a real
pleasure to his many friends in town
to meet him. But three days ago and
ne was active and in the full vigOr of
young manhood when. ON account of a
slight indisposition, he took his bed,
and yesterday afternoon that dreaded
appendicitis made it's appearance in
the most deadly form, which, in spite
OF the, best medical Skill that could
pc brought into reQuisition both from
Wiiiamston and Greenville, together
with the assistance Of the best trained
nurses, the disease had fastened its
tangs upon the life of the young man
and the most heroic effort to etay the
awful result proved fruitless.
jamie GOssett was one of the most
genteel,. sweet tempered boys that this
writer has ever known, and he was
pointed to as q model. He entered
Clemson College last fall, and as evil
dence of his upright conduct while
from under the influence of devoted
parenta, he never received a demerit
at school. but his reports were always
excellent.
The funeral will take place next
Tuesday, after which the remains will
be inferred in the city cemetery.

At Audubon Beach, New York, yes

Enforcing Pure Food Laws.

2. K. Slater, the new dairy and food
commissioner, seems to have made hit
with the retail grocers last night, when
he appealed to them for cooperation
in enforcing the food laws. Mr.. Slater
recognized the evident fact that it ism It
the, grocers who are at fault for the
adulteration Of goods. It is the greed
of manufacturers, whose chief concern
seems to be to make the largest profit
on the cheapest goods. The grocer must
handle the cheapest stock as well as
the best, but he does not want to work
off frauds and injurious authorizations
on the public. If his competitors are
made to obey the law, he is glad to
keep in line.
Common sense is a valuable auxiliary
In handling complicated question like
that of pure food, and the commissioner
made good point in saying that it
was one OF the important rules Of the
department.. If the grocers will join
sincerely in the movement against lille
gal food articles, they will not need to
fear prosecutions for technical and in
nocent violations of the law. It is only
wilful and persistent handling Of illegal
goods that will come in for punishment.
1t is unfortunate that the state laws
cannot reach the outside manufactures
who is really responsible, but if the
grocers will meet the state department
half way and keep their shelves clear
of illegal goods they will fine the dis,
honest manufacturers in an effective
way-by the loss of their Minnesota
trade. "
The aim of the food laws is to prevent
injury to the public health and defeat
fraud on the consumer. The retail deal
er should be working to the same end
and that is what grocers of intelligence
and correct principles are doing.
