To our many friends:

10 our many friends:
Pealese accept our heartfelt appre-
citation of your kindness and sympathy
at the funeral of our son, Wilson
George. All such evidences of friend.
ship held to render the sad occasion to
us less severe, cold as death always is,
and must of necessity be to those di-
rectly interested. That friendship that
prompts sacrifice for the purpose of
comforting the sorrowful is sweet to
the human heart, and to us, we assure
you, very much so on this sad occasion.
The beautiful flowers, so much loved
by him, we lovingly mourn, in their
mute language also speak comfort to
us, for which we thank you. May the
sympathy and encouragement rem
dered us by you bear rich harvest, to
be held in store for you against that

of the same.

Took First HOnOrS.

The friends in this city of Mr..
E. V. Swift will be proud to know
that he has just graduated at the
Knoxville University of Law, and
that he came away with the first
honors of the class. Mr.. Swift
was the youngest member of the
class of twelve, and had made two
years in one of study. In addi-
ton to winning the first honors
he won the Edward Thompson
prize for the best thesis in the law
class, which consists of about
100000 worth of law books. The
winner was decided upon by a
committee of attorneys at the
Newport bar. Six contestants
entered and the subject treated
was 90 Public Regulation of Quasi
Public Corporations" The judges
spoke in highest terms of the
winner. Another honor bestowed
on the Palestine boy was his selec-
ton as toast master at the annual
class banquet. After finishing in
his examinations K. V. went to
Memphis where be will spend two
or three weeks with his mother,
who is visiting in that city.
Palestine has cause to be proud,
and she is proud, of such of her
sons.

nounced at the alumni dinner this
afternoon that a gift of s1,OOO,OOO
had been recently made by John D.
Rockefeller. President Hadley also
said that $2,OOO,O00 in all have been
given to the University within a
comparatively recent time, the other
million being subscribed by graduates
in sums varying from $4,000 to
$250,OO0. The names of the latter
donors were not made public. Presi
dent Hadley said that the only econ.
dition of any kind underlying Mr..
Rockefeller's gift is that the money
is to be invested in income. produc-
ing securities and preserved inviolate

Time TO Hustle.

The friends of the dispensary
have nothing to gain by policy of
silence and inactivity--a policy that
has been followed, we believe, chiefly
to avoid the silly criticisms of cranks
and extremists about the dispensary
being in politics. The blind tigers
are in politics; the moonshiners and
jug merchants are in politics the
prospective beneficiaries of a prohi-
bition farce are in politics the pro-
hibitionists themselves are in politics ;
and we see no reason why the friends
of the dispensary should not 90 into
politics also. Certainly their in
fluence could hardly be more un-
savory than that of the old criminal
moonshiners and blind-tigers, who
are for present purposes protesting
to be ardent prohibitionists. Or

Suicide in Spartanburg.

j. b. Martin, aged 25, of Spartan
burg county, committed suicide on
the morning of June 27, about day
light. He had been suffering from
some previous trouble for months
and his people brought him here for
treatment. He was sleeping in a
room without a nurse or attendant.
He left his room early, went out to a
small stream near by and held his
head in little pool of water six to
eight inches deep until life was ex-
tinct. His relatives carried his body
out to the country for burial.

A Handsome New $40 Bill.

The Treasury Department at
Washington has begun the issue to
the pnblio of new twepty-dollar
gold certificate. 1t is more attrac-
tive than the old certificate, being
entirely original in design. 1t has
two printings on the face of the
note, is composed of geometrical
lathe work interviewer with scroll
design which is also interwoven
with ribbon on which is the
wording "United States of America"
and "Twenty Dollars" Inside of
this is the yellow tint effect.
In the center is bust portrait of
George Washington, with the figures
"20" above the portrait; below are
the words Gin gold coin," yellow
tinted. The numerals 800" in each
corner are very prominent. The
back of the note contains the great
seal of the United States in the
center. The margins are of geo.
metrical lathe work, on which are
mounted the numerals and lettering.
The lettering is principally what is
known as the white face Roman.
The work is entirely original and
is a new departure from any other
currency ever issued by the govern.
ment. 1t is rich in design, contain.
ing good drawing, coupled with the
perfection of the engraver's art.

Strange, Isn't II.

A woman sees hat or bonnet in a
milliner's window. 1t is in the latest
style, 80 she determines to have that
hat--or one just like it. No use to
try to dissuade her-she wants that
kind of hat! No other will suit her.
There she displays her will power,
and probably does the same with
everything she buys for herself or
her family. She makes, as it were, a
feminine 'tdeclaration of independ-
ence."
Is it not surprising, therefore, to
find some few women who still allow
their grocers to choose for them in
important matters like food stuffs
In spite of the fact that grocers, as
n rule, have long ago realized the
necessity of catering to their custo-
mers' rather than their own desires,
there are still few of the other
kind left, who show marked incli-
nation to persuade customers to take
what they do not ask for, or desire.
Take Lion coffee, for instance, the
leader of all package coffees, an
established favorite for over twenty
five years in millions of homes, on
account of it's absolutely pure and
uniform quality.
Wouldn't you think it impossible
that single grocer can still exist
who would oppose such an invincible
argument of merit, by trying to per.
suade customer to buy loose coffee
in preference to Lion coffee. Loose
coffee has no standard of quality
no one can guarantee that it is even
clean. OF course, really independ-
ent and intelligent women know this,
and 80 do up-to-date grocers, but if
women were as particular about cof-
fee as about hats, no kind of grocer
could be without Lion coffee.

THE NEWS IN BRIEF FORM.


SOW peas. If more peas were sown
our land would be richer and the
farmers independent. They are a
great deal better than commercial
fertilizer and much cheaper.
Chief Justice Y. j. Pope has is
sued. mandamus requiring the
Pickens county board of control to
show cause why the dispensary at
Pickens should not be re-opened. 1t
is contended that the election by
which the dispensary was voted out
was illegal.
The Anderson attorneys have
adopted rule requiring all members
of the bar to rise when the Judge
enters the court room. This custom
has always obtained in the Supreme
Court, but is not general in the Cir
cult Courts. 1t adds very materially
TO the air of courtesy and dignity
hedging court.
An old safe which had been used
in bank at Burksville, Ky, during
the war, but which has stood in the
vault since without being opened on
account of the key having been lost,
was opened few days ago and
found to contain $4,000 in gold, a
gold watch and a half gallon of
whiskey.
The movement to vote the dispen-
sary out of Williamsburg county
took definite shape last week. A pc
tition was framed and adopted, set
ting ou. the views of these who are
pushing the movement. 1t will be
at once set up in print and one hum
dred copies circulated through the
county simultaneously. What the
result will be no one can foretell, but
there will be some surprises.
Postmaster General Cortelyou has
awarded contract of 100000 to
the Dalton Furniture Company, of
High Point, North Carolina, for
tables and stools for the rural free
delivery service. The competition
was against the largest and richest
of the Northern manufacturers, and
the North Carolinians got the busi-
ness because they agreed to do it for
less than any of the Northern
makers.
John Cole, a young white man,
shot and killed Virge Caldwell, COL
ored, at Goldville, S. c., last week.
MIR. Cole, who is one of the overseers
for j. S. Blalock, was out about the
lot, when a row started between
Caldwell and another negro. Cole
commanded them to stop the broil.
Caldwell resented the interference
and started towards Cole with
drawn knife. Cole drew his pistol
and fired three shots into the neero's
body.

made that every pupil in the public
schools OF the State be requested to
contribute one cent to help purchase

not be put into commission for a
number OF years, but the suggestion
is good, inasmuch as it will make the
children feel personal interest in
the navy. And it will help to make
them more patriotic, just as IL will
