Killed

II Is NTH much sorrow that we
learn OF the sudden death OF Mr.. Alex
srder c. Campbell. of Charlestowu. a
brother TO State Senator William
Campoeli. and most splendid gentle
man. The intelligence is to the effect
that the decesse was coming home
from Plttsburg. Penn, aud near Nc
keesport some one threw a stor e
through the car window striking Mr..
Campbell and killing him, He was
well known here aud had many friends
among our people. lie was about 10
years old aud was unmarried.
The Mckee port paper say Mfr.
Campbell was riding iu a Pullman on
the second section CT the Duquesue
limited and the train was leaving the
station at Mckeespoit when there
was crash OF glass and the passen-
gers saw Mr.. Campbell pitch headlor z
upon his face in the middle OF the
aisle. The conductor had the train
stopped and the unfortunate man
was picked up unconscious with a
hole in his temple from which the
blood was flowing aid the stone wa S
found lying by him. He was taken to
hospital where alter time he be-
came conscious long enough to tell the
doctor who he was and where he was
from. He Soon after lapsed again int o
Inconsistencies and died in about
two hours. His skull was fractured
badly and there was never the slight
est hope of saving his life. The au-
thorities are searching for the party
who threw the stone but there is little
hope of capture. 1t is said that there
has been god deal OF this diabolical
work going en- al this point.

Obituary

In memory Of Floyd Light.
Brother thou vast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze,
l:isait as the air Of event ng
When it flats among the trees.
Dearest Brother thou has left us,
Here thy loss W. deeply fee,
But It's God that hath bereft u,
He will all our SORROWS heal.
He has gone to heaves before us,
But he turns and waves his hand,
Pointing to the glories DER us.
In that happy spirit land.
Yet again we hope to meet thee.
When the spark of life is fed,
There in heaven with joy to great
thee,
Where no fare well tears are shed.

The evidence against the paper
trust in the suit being tried at Mil
waukee shows, that yrior to the or.
ganization OF the trust the price OF

that now the price is 81. u.s. Bids sol.
icited tor contracts for paper were for
merly received from all over the cour-
try now only one bid is received. This
is the common way of doing business
by all the trust and yet the republi-

In the second game the team for

A NEW BOOK.
s'ImmOrtality"-AM Message of ComfOrt-By
Rev. W. L. SeabrOOk.

Rev. w. L. Seabrook, pastor of the Luth-
eran Church of the Redeemer, at Newberry,
South Carolina, has written a book on I'm
mortality" which will be ready for delivery
before Easter Mr.. Seabrook was rising
lawyer of Westminster before he entered the
ministry and is favorably known to most of
the people of Westminster. His book, there
fore, should have large sale in this com.
munity. Those ordering copies before April
Is will receive them postpaid for $l.0O.
The subject of the book is THE Hope of
Immortality A circular issued by the au-
thor says
''Iu my ministry, have learned by expe-
rience that the message most greatly needed
is the message of comfort, and with that mes
sage have sought to help those who need II.
As pastor, my sphere of helptulness was
limited to my congregation or at best to the
community in which have lived The desire
for larger circle of helpful influence led me
to the publication of the book.
"Those who have had the opportunity to
read the manuscript or the proof sheets OF the
book, express their confidence that IT will
fulfill its mission. One says IL am glad
that you did not write it earlier in your lite
Only the personal experience of sorrow and a
life of deep sympathy with the SORROWS of
others could make possible the writing of such
a helpful book Another, speaking of the
section Loves Argument for the Hope OF
Immortality, says Ill is the finest thing
that have ever seen from your pen, indeed /
know of nothing stronger that has been pro-
duced by any one. Another says :-"f our
book will prove to be truly lamp OF comfort,
hung by your loving hands in the valley OF
the shadow to cheer the hearts of sorrowing
ones, and guide their feet through the gloom
to the brighter light beyond. "
