Lee G. HolIeman for State Bank Examiner.

The bill providing for State Bank Ex-
aminer having passed the Legislature, it
was announced to-day that Lee G. Holle-
man of this city would be an applicant
for the position.
Mr.. Holleman is an expert accountant.
He has had fifteen years experience in
that line, and for the past six years has
been assistant cashier of the Peoples
Bank of this city. There is no doubt
that he is well qualified for the position,
and it is not believed that better man
can be found in the State for the place.
The appointment is to be made by the
Governor upon the recommendation of
the Executive Committee of the State
Bankers Association. Mr.. Holleman's
friends are actively at work in his behalf
and it is believed that there is good pros
pect of success.
1t goes without saying that Mr.. Holle-
mans appointment would give the live
liest satisfaction in Anderson, where he
is so popular, and wherever he is known
throughout the State.--Anderson Mail,

was made sad on last Monday, February
18th, 1905, at 1890 O'Clock, when the
Angel of Death came and claimed the
spirit of Mrs. w. T. Williams. 1t was
known that she had not been we'll for
some weeks. Her Improvement, how
ever, was thought to bo encouraging and
her friends thought she would soon be
out again. Mrs. Williams was loved by
all who knew her. A devoted wife and
an affectionate mother has been called
home to rest from the cares of this life
and has entered into the joys of the life
eternal. She waits and watches for
loved ones left behind. A good woman
has gone to her reward. Early in life
she gave her heart to Christ and Joined
the Baptist church. Before her marriage
she was Miss Elizabeth Moore. She
leaves husband and eight children to
mourn her death, all of whom are living,
the youngest being grown. She was in
the sixty-first year of her age. After APP
propriate funeral services by Revs. Mason
and Stone, her remains were laid to rest
in the Return cemetery last Friday. The
large congregation gathered at the
church bears Testimony of the esteem in
which she was held. We extend our
sincerest sympathy to the bereaved in
their sore affliction. FEM.

Hollands for October.

The campaign fol- pure food and
pure drugs is being vigorously
pushed by Hollands Magazine.
The October number contains an.
other article by Walter B. Whit.
man in which he takes up meats
and meat products sold in Texas.
The analysis made by an expert
chemist show that canned meats
particularly are filed with pre-
servatives, coloring matter and
adulterants in the form of filters
put in to cbeapen the products.
Chopped meats, such as sausage
and Hamburger steak, are similar
ly adulterated. The handling of
fresh meats is also discussed, the
claim being made that great deal
of hy-blown and dust. covered meat
is sold to consumers. Representa-
tives of Hollands visited large
number of Texas towns and bought
in the open market the samples
which were turned over to the
chemist for examination,
But in the fight for pure food
other features of Hollands are not
being overlooked. The October
