built Rock Hill They found it an un-
in,portant village and made Of it one
of the most prosperous and best
known cities Of the State. a center OF
manufacturing industry, Of education
and cf wealth. He was one Of thepio-
neer cotton mill builders and manag-
ers and assisted in carrying South
Carolina 10 the front as a cotton man
ufacrrring state. BY his energy and
business ability he acquired more
than a competency, but a few years
ago during the business depression
and consequent financial stringency
which crippled the cotton mills more
than almost any branch Of industry
he had the accumulation Of life time
swept away as he surrendered prac-
tical,y Ill Of his property to pay the
debts of the. mills Of which he was
president. and those who were best
ACQUAINTED with the circumstances
say that no act Of his long life was
more to his honor and credit than the
course he pursued in this financial
disaster. Though he lost his fortune
the mills that he was instrumental in
building still stand as an industrial
monument to his memory and the
work that he did to make Rock Hill
what it is today also remains to tes-
tify to his ability and public spirit.

Chicago Health Commissioner, DR..
Reynolds, reported on october 8 last
that out of 489 applicants for Fire De-
partment positions, one in every II were
rejected for Bright's Disease. He adds:
TT is not reassuring to learn that 6 per
cent of Chacago's male population in
early manhood is afflicted with Bright's
Disease"
In older people the percentage is high
er. and DR.. LOOMS of Bellevue Hos
pital, states that from the autopsies 80
per cent of men and women over forty
have it IN some form.
The census gives support to the above.
It shows that the annual deaths from
Brightss Disease have increased from
!, 722 in 1870 to IS, 748 annually IN 1900.
There were no deaths reported from
Bright's Disease before 1870 The deaths
were then believed to be due to Kidney
trouble and were so reported

But Miss Fortune, or some other
reckless female, was laying for him,
and he got his" several times in
row. In the first place. it was colder
than samhiIl and showing. This is
not a pleasant condition for one riding
on the blind. Next, just as the train
was slowing down at Lawrence, some
person, presumably train hand
came down suddenly from the top of
the baggage car and SmOte Mr.. Jack
son with a club knocked him from
the steps. According to his story, he
skated on the bridge of his nose from
one switch limit to the other, and
then got Up and boarded the train
again. The facts of the case are that
he tried to jump from the train as it
came into Topeka, and being new at
the business buried his face in the
cinder ballast and lost consciousness.
He was just coming to, and was about
frozen, when found by officer Hen
bricks of the Santa Fe beat. Accord
ing to his very sensible custom when
handling vags, Mr.. Hendricks intro
duced himself by frisking the victim
of misfortune. and came to the fore
with the deadly 30. According to Mr.
Jackson's statement. the officer then
addressed him something like this:
.Woeher doing with gun, huh ?
Mr.. Jackson's face resembled a rare
Hamburg steak, and he almost wished
he was back at Paws. Here is a
summary OF the DdQ luck WDlCn came
TO Mr. Jackson IN one short night:
First. a quarrel with Paw at the sup
per table; second, a dash out into the
bitter world and a late spring snow
storm; third, a wild ride on the blind.

forth. So decided the court. Mr..
Cornish said that it was a base can

against him, and he was fined one

insult to injury to make him pay these
netghbors six bits each for telling on
him. Mrs. Angelina Holmes was the

that the Cornish fowls had raided her
