DEATH OF AUET EASTER.
Said to Have Been the Oldest Woman
in the United States.


The oldest person in Augusta, an6
probably the oldest in the United
States died Wednesday afternoon Of
old age, says the Augusta Herald.
Easter Matthew's was her name, She
was a colored woman aud lived at No.
81, New Pine Street-her age was 13S
years.
Aunt Easter," as she was called,
was born in ITO, and while In slavery
she belonged TO a namber OF promi-
nent families Of the city. She had
for her last owners, the Clayton fam
lily, and she often spoke OF Mr.. Tur.
ner Clayton in ner last days.
The old woman died from old age,
she never having an ache or pain in
her life. For the past Is years she
had been living In the city, and has
resided on Pine street for the past 20
years. The people whom she was
living with at the time OF her death
claimed that she had never complain
ed in the least Of having an ache OF
pain.
One OF the ways the old woman had
OF telling her age was that she re-
membered several years bsfore tie
Springfield Baptist church was built
In the city, and this Institution Is los
years old. She claimed that she re-
membered when the spot where the
church now stands was in a swamp.
The o,d woman was liked by all Of
the people, 10th white and colored, as
she often interested them by telling
Of the times she used to have in the
days gone by. Her recollection was
perfect, even In her last days.

TIE DIVORCE EVIL,
Says archbishop Farley, Is Under
mining the Walls Of Society.

Archbishop Farley declared at Car
negie Hall, in New York, one night
last week, at the commencement exer-
cises OF St. Francie Xavier that the
evils OF divorce were fast undermining
the walls CT our society and that the
whole structure would shortly collapse
should no hand be raised TO ward of
the advance OF this tendency. The
Archbishop said in part:
"A continuance Of the evil OF di.
vorce, Of the slightest regard for the
marriage, must shortly lead to the
downfall of society, nay, it is even
now falling, and must soon be dragg.
ed in the dust. We see that it Is
going to pieces.
President Roosevelt, who holds in
bis HANDS the trust imposed by the
people OF the United States, and who
wields his authority in no mistaken
manner, has openly announced how
he deplores the awful condition Of So
ciety iu this regard.
II believe no president since Wash.
iugton's time has made a more bene-
fetal effects on the roots OF society
and the family than Roosevelt has by
means OF bis frank declaration. Not
cnly does the president preach the
doctrines be believes, but be exempli.
ies it in his own life, and his own
family stands as an Illustration Of
what the nations executive thinks
and says of the race standards.
1T is likewise gratifying to find
that the president has not ccnfaed
his labors in this direction to his own
circle, wholly, but the fact is made
known to me that the cabinet has
taken this question up and will deal
with 1t. When the heads Of our gov
eminent take up problem Of this
grave nature there can be no need Of
the people doubling that the ques
tions must be gravely considered, and
We feel that much good will be done
if effort Is properly directed"

Crew TO Blame.

The railroad commission WedDes-
day finished it's report to the Legisla-
ture On the wreck OF the Ogden
special at Greenville. The report full
" sustains the position OF the railroad
officials that the blame attaches to
Engineer Hunter and Conductor
Acker OF the special for failure to OBJ,
serve the rria w,1ich required them
to come into the Greenville yards un.
der full control. 1t finds this rule is
in accordance with the best practice
Of standard American railways, and
that it is wise and best calculated to
promote safety" The report lets the
crew down with this finding: 1t
appears from the evidence that they
had been furnished with the rules and
had been examined. on and knew them,
but simply in this action at least mis-
interpreted them.
