DEATH OF A MILTTIAMAN
In the Camp at Charlnttc-Dies in
Few Hours. After Being Injured by

AS a result of injuries sustained in a
fall into a cinder pit near the Southern
Railway passenger station Thursday
night, Mr.. Watt V. ,Burleyson, a pri-
vate in Company B, of Salisbury, died
in the ~regimental hospital quarters at
Camp Robertson yesterday morning at
5 O'Clock. The body was sent to his
home last night, being in charge Of a
detail from Company B consisting of
Sergeant H. T. McCubbins, COrporals
F. w. Porter and G.. II. Yates and
Private D. w. BurleysOn, a cousin of
the deceased.
After mess Thursday evening Private
Burleyson, accompanied by Privates
Plummer and Webster, left the camp
| and went up town. About $50 O'Clock
they decided to visit some friends who
live at the Elizabeth Mills and they
| started for the mill settlement, going
| by way of the Southern Railway. Al
| ter leaving the passenger station they
! started to turn aside from the track to
| get out of the way of a shifting en-
| CINE. Plummer was in front and as
| he stepped aside he fell into the cinder
| pit, being slightly bruised. Before he
| could stop himself Burleyson had step
ped too far also and fell directly across
a steel beam in the pit, sustaining the
| injuries that proved fatal.
After the accident which none OF
| them thought serious, the young men
continued their way, but before they
had gone a hundred yards Burleyson
complained of a pain in his stomach
and began vomiting. He was AIKEN
to a nearby house and a physician
summoned. The physician ordered a
carriage and took him to the hospital
at the encampment, turning hlm over
to the surgeons in Charge
1t was not thought at first that the
man was seriously injured, there being
no bruise. The continued suffering of
the patient convinced them, however.
that there was an internal rupture, and
all that medical skill could do was
done for him. The injury was fatal
though and a few minutesbefore re-
vielle was sounded the soldier breath
ed his last, after being delirious fol
more than an hour.
AS soon as the camp was awake al
investigation of the mans death was
ordered, this being conducted by Ma
/ jors Glenn and Brooks and Captain
Boyd, surgeons of the regiment, Wht
found that the death Of Burleyson was
due to an internal hemorrhage, second
r ary, which was produced by the fall.
81 Burleyson was unmarried man Of

THE PEACE

While il is known that NJ. W1tte is
in favor of making peace with Japan
if the latter offers fair terms and it is
believed he has come to the conference
with power to make such treaty, the
dispatches from st. Petersburg are not
encouraging to those whe are anxious
to see the war brought to Il close.
The car in answer to an address the
other day declared himself in favor Of
continuing the war until the enemy is
crushed" If this be true and b car
was expressing his real sentiments
then there is little prospect of peace.
The representatives of the two govern
ments will hardly be able to agree on
terms. If the Russians come to the
conference expecting Japan to consent
TO such terms as might be expected of
a defeated nation they may as well
have stayed away. 1t is not known
what .Japan's demands will be nor
what concessions the Russian ENJOYS
are empowered to make, but it is no
to be thought that Japan will consent
to terms that are not very advantag-
eous to her. She is willing to make
peace, but she is not going to humble
herself before Russia and sue for it
If the z did make such statement he
was most probably talking for bun

semblance of Russians who favored
continuance of the war. There is 6

Catarrh usually begins with a cold in
the head, but does not stop there. The
mucous membranes all become infamed
and secrete a filthy, unhealthy matter
which is absorbed by the blood and dis
tributed to all parts OF the body. The
patient is then continually hawking
and splitting, the nose is stopped up,
the ears nave a ringing or buzzing noise,
the throat becomes sore. and as b un-
healthy matter more thoroughly satu-
rates the blood . general feeling OF des-
pondency takes possession OF the system.
