Death OF John Hendricks.

John Hendricks died yesterday at
the home of his granddaughter, Mrs.
H. G. Harrell, at Pelzer, at the ad-
vanced age of 96 years. The inter-
ment will take place at Pelzer TO- day.
Mr.. Hendricks lived at Fair Play,
in Oconee county, until few years
ago, and was we'll known citizen.
He leaves no children, and but three
grandchildren, one of whom is Mrs.
j. w. Bailey, wife of the Methodist
minister at Starr.
Mr.. Hendricks was a very vigo-
rous man all of his life. During the
past few years he has made several
visits to one of his grandsons, who
lives in Alabama. He was i'll only
about a week, and just an hour or 80
he got out of bed and wanted to
walk around the room, but was not
able to do 80. He died simply of
old age.
Mr.. Hendricks was good citizen
and a good neighbor, and was held
In the highest esteem by all who
knew him. 1t is said that he assisted
at the digging of every grave that
was dug in the graveyard at Fair
Play for fifty years. He removed
from his old home there only few
years ago to live with his grandchil-

Havana, August 23.--Two bloody
battles were fought to-day between
insurgents and rural guards. In one
Gen. Quentin Bandera, the negro
leader, was killed and the other re-
suited in the capture Of San Juan De
Marbinez by the rebel forces.
The revolutionists are now occu.
pying two important cities on the
island.
A force of rural guards and vol
unteers has left Cienfuegos, province
of Santa Clara, TO engage 800 insur-
gents who left Las Lajas under the
command of Col. Guseman, mayor OF
that town.
A force of 200 mounted rural
guards, which had been for three
days seeking the insurgent force
commanded by Bandera, finally sue
ceeded after the veteran commander
had pitched his camp for the night
In addition to Bandera, two of his
followers were killed, but none was
captured. Bandera greatly distin-
guished himself in the Cuban war
for independence.

Lynching Made Him a lunatIc.

Charleston, S. c., August 2O.-A
special from Greenwood tonight tells
of the arrest and placing in Jail of
Bob Faust, colored, 80 years of age,
who this afternoon went crazy think
ing over the recent lynchings and
announced that he would assault
every woman he met. Three times
he attacked colored women and was
driven away without doing them
injury, and at last he entered the
premises of Benjamin King, a white
farmer, living in the Coronaca Sec
tion, loudly proclaiming that he
meant to assault the women of the
place. He had gun, but King sue
ceeded in disarming him and later,
securely bound, he was taken to
Greenwood, apparently raving
lunatic.

A GREAT AMERICAN SOLDIER.

CONTINUED from Page Three.l
voice upon the action of such noble
soul is hushed. A careful survey of
bis character and life must lead the
student of men and affairs to see
that the course he took was from his
point of view and judged by his in
exorable and pure conscience the
path of duty to which high sense
of honor called him. Could we
share the thoughts of that high
minded man as he paced the broad
pillared veranda of his noble Arling-
ton house, his eyes glancing across
the river at the flag of his country,
waving above the dome of the Capt.
tcl and then resting or the soil Of
his native Virginia, we should be
willing now to recognize in him one
of the finest products of American
life. For surely as the years go on
we shall see that such life can be
judged by no partisan measure, and
we shall come to look upon him as
the English of our day regard Wash
ington, whom little more than a CEN
tury ago they delighted to call a
rebel. Indeed in all essential char
acteristics Lee resembled Washing
ton, and had the great work of his
life been crowned with success, or
had he chosen the winning side, the
world would have acknowledged that
Virginia could in century produce
two men who we're the embodiment
of public and private virtue"
"The avenging pen of history"
has placed the name of Lee side by
side with Washington. So writes
the historian of to-day and so will
the future historian prolong the
noble record, The fame of Robert
Lee is secure in that last appeal to ::
Time the beautifier of the dead,
Time the corrector where our judgments
err,
The est of Truth.
