The Untimely Death of q Univer
sally Beloved Young Lady.

~
About fourteen years ago there
came from Beech Island two sis
terF, Misses Krllab aud Mary
Fair to make their homein Edge
field with their aunt, Mrs. N. L,
Brunson. These tive were not
stra gers from the first, yorit was
to the native home ofstheir faith Ell
hey had returned, when both
Iheir parents were no more. In
their aunt, Mrs. Brunson, they
have fund all that a devoted
mother could have been to them
aud they were the happier for
having come into our midst. Bul
it is net of this that we desire to
write, but of thu benefit which
they have been to us, for no other
two have through these years been
more closely connected with
Edgefeld's activities of church
and social life, always with a
sweet and helpful influence for
better aud brighter things.
On last Wednesday at 1880
O'Clock in the city hospital of. Au-
gusta, the spirit of Mary Fair
whom all Edgeseld knew but to
love and cherish, passed into the
beautiful beyond, the eternal
mansion prepared for her by the
Saviour whom size loved.
Many sympathetic ard anxious
hearts awaited the result of this
visit to the hospital, aud such
cheering reports had come that
the many friends thought that
but a few more weeks would
elapse before they would again
gee the form of her whom they
held SO dear. But thu sudden IT,
dings came on Wednesday that
she had passed over the river, and
happy expectancy gave place to
grief and tears. Not to despair,
for those only despair who have
10 hope, and we knew that all
was we'll with her. She has seen
the green fields of Eden, and the
golden streets of that happy city
where Ter Saviour dwells.
There were few.i the town or
vicinity of Edgefeld, possessed of
as many devoted friends. She had
the winning, ch?ery magnetism of
person which is a gift of itself,
rare and precious. There was not
more faithful student of the
Sunday school lesson than she,
and her place at church was al
ways filed.
On Thursday at the Baptist
church DR.. G. E. Burts conducted
the funeral services, and they laid
the precious body away in the
village cemetery, but she is no
Longer there. The happy radiant
soul has arisen to a brighter, more
glorious, more congenial sphere,
She is glad to be there, for on the
other side the family circle is en-
larging as the years go by. They
are now reunited, awaiting the
remnant still left behind. Of tht
immediate family there remair
Miss Kellah Fair and Messrs
Warren aud Frank Fair.
"The guardian angels are hover
ing rear,
They lave watched unseen Ger tn
conflict here.
| They hear her now on their wing
away,
To realm of peace, to cloud
less day
Ended now is earthly strife:
Ard her brew is crowned wit
the crown of life"

On Saturday last Magistrate N.
L. Brunson held an inquest over
the body of Robert Gambler who
resided on the farm of the late
Carroll Rainsford. The old dlr-
key had been omplaining for sew
aral days. About noon on Fri.
day be walked down to the spring
alone, and failing to return his
family wentto look for him in the
afternoon, finding his dead body
in the road near the spring. At
ter viewing the body and b airing
the testimony, the jury rendered
IL verdict to the effect. that death
resulted from natural causes.
Edsc6ell people sometimes be-
moan the fact that the old town
.s situated at The end Of the rail-
road track, forgetting that along
with the disadvantagescom some
advantages. One great advantage
in rot living on main line of
railroad is escaping the army Of
tramps. They seldom leave the
trunk line. Already the cold and
prospect of a severe winter is
causing thousands of them to
turn their faces southwark to a
warmer climate. Nearly all of
these Weary Willies and Rusty
Rames give Edge6eld the go-by,
which fact is little appreciated.

SPRING GOODS MOVING
VOLUME OF BUSINESS FOR THIS
WEEK rs LITTLE AFFECTED BY
HOLIDAY.

New York, Feb. A.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s week
" review of trade says:
Holidays and cratic weather were calculated
to interrupt progress in industrial channels, but
business has become established on so sound
basis as not to be easily affected by any such
temporary unfavorable feature. Say
Sections that experienced especially high tenn
peratures report the early opening of spring
lines with most satisfactory results, excessive
moisture elsewhere proved beneficial for manu-
featuring purposes, while at other points sea
sonable merchandise was distributed freely. Job
bers of drygoods, clothing and notions ship
ping large quantities of spring goods, accumu-
lauons of heavyweight wearing apparel having
no depressing effect on the new seasons busi-
ness ...-
Prices are firmly held as a"rule except in the
markets for farm staples, which are still higher
than normal, despite general reaction. Manu-
featuring plants report new orders that assure
activity still further into the future, and several
dividend announcements show gains over recent
years, while some New England cotton mills are
only deferred from full activity by scarcity OF
labor
Railway earnings continue to make splendid
comparisons with last years figures, February
thus far recording a gain Of 26.7 per cent. For
eign trade returns in January for the whole
nation far surpassed the same month in any
previous year. and the last week at this port
shows a gain of 81, 141, 01S in exports, but q
decrease Of IS, 1877. STA in imports as compared
with 1905. +.
Steel fabricating concessions have felt the
full benefit of the open winter, structural lines
leading in point of activity, and importunate
buyers continue to urge quick delivery.
Footwear manufacturers in New England have
received good volume of supplementary spring
business at full quotations In addition to the
usual amount Of business already on hand, and
the improved position of the producers is shown
by the announcement Of contracts for TALL. lines
will not be accepted at present prices for de-
livery later than June Leather is more irregu-
lar, buyers operating less freely and tanners are
required to make concessions. Current hides are
OF poor quality and In light demand, which

RARE AND CURIOUS COINS
The Collection Of Claas Denekas Now
in the National Museum.

The National museum has Just re-
ceived a. fresh collection of coins from
the estate Of Claas Denekas of Wash
ington, who recently died here. The
collection consists Of about 250 pieces,
gold, silver and copper, with some quite
rare and curious coins. The collection
has beengloaned to the museum and Will
be placed on exhibition as soon as it
can be, arranged and cataloged. Mr..
.Denekas, in addition to being quite q
wealthy man, had a fondness for col
Letting curios Of many sorts, and his
personal estate contained quite num-

found a temporary resting place IN the
museum. .-.. ~:
81 Mr.. Denekas was known in Washing
ton as the originator of the compressed
yeast cake, and it was from this that
he made his money. Older residents of
the city will remember very wildly the
time when there were no yeast cakes
and when the .housekeeper had to send
to the nearest bakery for yeast IN
pitcher and time her making of bread
by the baker 8 readiness to furnish the
yeast. For the yeast would keep a
Comparatively short time even on ice.
MI. sDenekas started the yeast cake idea
with travelling outfit consisting OF
a; small hand satchel, a few dozen yeast
cakes and nothing else. He was en-,
gagged in a hard fight, too, for, prior
to that time there was what was known
as the "cornmeal yeast cake,' prin.
cipally, SOLD by the country people IN TT rs
yeast would raise bread, and about as
often it would not, according to the
way the yeast cake happened to feel
Usually the bread was sour, too. PEG
pie who had tried this cornmeal expert
ment were naturally shy of anything
in the shape of compressed yeast. But
Mr.. Denekas was convinced that he haC
a good thing, and he kept doggedly al

The demand once being created, Mr.
Denekas' fortune wah made and he dice
