the day before.
i And" added this hero of fercer
wars, Il slew him on the spot and no
victory ever delighted me more!'
] 1t was a long career from the prom
ising babe to the year 1902 when,
''amid tears OF the South, Wade
/ Hampton was called to rest, at nearly
eighty-five years of age"
But it was "no blessed ob1ige" He
was a leader and the son of leaders.
A touching incident is told of him
in the trying days Of 1876.
It was the last meeting of the ex-
citing campaign and Gen Hampton
; was at Orangepurg In Trinity
church at Columbia lay the dead body
Of his beautiful little grandson, his
idol and namesake, Wade Hampton
Haskell The mother was too III to
accompany the little body and he had
been broght down from Walhalla. No
arrangement had been made for mt
sic. A friend heard Of it and tells the
story:
q knew the child's mother would
erieve if he were laid away without
It. So 7 got my hat and with another
friend We walked to Trinity by lamp
light. When we got there we found
only one piece of candle two inches
long at the back Of the organ. We
agreed she should play an air she
knew without notes and | should hold
the candle
"Tn the dusky light as the music
stole softly about the old church,
figure walked tip the aisle It was the
grandfather OF the child. An engine
mad been put on to bring him to
Columbia, but it could occupy the
track only for limited time and Gen.
Hampton had to speak in Orange
burg the next day He left before the
little mound was made up.
The following beautiful lines were
written in 1853 by William Henry
Grayerson as a tribute to Col. Wade
Hampton father Of Gen. Hampton.
Unfortunately they appeared two
weeks after Col Hampton's death.
But as we read them they seem to fan
as mantle of heredity on the shout
Like hin-long honoured in his ma
tive land.
Late mourned-tl1e noble heart, the
bounteous hand,
Prompt with his purse to aid each
Prompt with his sword his country
to defend;
In war. no holder breast, no stronger
arm.
Adorning peace with every social
charm.
To whom no sorrow ever sighed IN
vain.
Who felt a dream OF meanness like
stain.
Whose frank warm nature made his
ample hall
A hons for friends. place Of Joy
for all"
Col. Hampton dreamed once that
he hand done mean thing. 1t
made such an impression upon him
that he said he always felt it 4 stain
upon his honor to have even dreamed
such a thing!'
And SO today, in honoring Wade
Hampton, we honor his ancestors
and
1T matters not what may be
mans politics. nor whether he was
born among SHOWS of the North or
under the fervid Sun of the South:
pluck, fortitude and military prowess
command admiration from every
creed and cline"

Death Of Miss Sallie @. Pierce, and
Her Sweet Life.

The Superior, Neb., New gives
touching obituary Of the only daugh
ter Of MIR. and Mrs. M. L. Pierce
formerly Of Abilene. 1t says:
Sallie Croft Pierce was born II
Greenwich, N. Y, September goth
1885, and came with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. M. L. Pierce. to Superior
in 1888 which has been her continuous
home since that time. She was nick
named "Tody" when baby, and by
that name she was known to all.
She attended the Superior schools
graduating tnerefrom in 1905. Dur
ing the school year Of '04''05 she was
employed by the board Of education
as laboratory assistant and performed
her duties with credit and efficiency.
Last September she entered the
State University at Lincoln. and 1t
was not long afterwards that phySi'
clans advised her to leave the Uni
verSity, as her physical condition re-
vealed the fact that she was q victim
OF tuberculosis, and must have rest,
quiet, medical treatment and open
air. Tody came home at once and
every known means Of combating the
mslady was employed by her parents
and the best medical skill. A large
porch was built to the family resi-
rdence and screened in and 1t was
there she spent her time when not
riding 10 the country and enjoying
the open air. The hopes Of the loving
ones who cared for her ran high, as
the heroic treatment seemed to arrest
the disease for time, and the patient
appeared rugged and blessed with the
best Of health. This did mot long
continue, however, and as warm
weather set In this spring after her
return from o visit to relatives In
Galveston, Texas, she grew rapidly
worse, and no power could stay
deaths approach.
She died July 25 and the funeral
services we're held July ~. A large
assembly Of friends attended the ser
vices. Tody Pierce was faithful
Christian, and a member Of the First
Presby terian church Of this city. She
was also q member Of Olive Chapter
o. E. s. Her friends we're legion.
She has gone to her reward, but the
memory of her happy and proposes
sing nature will linger within our
hearts, and ever remind us that the
light OF one cheerful life shines farther
than the brilliAncy Of q century's
logic.

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
tion OF the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors
pronounced it q local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and BY con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incuresble.
Science has proven catarrb to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful
1t acts directly on the blood and muc-
GUS surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars

Keep
Your Nerve

1t is nerve energy that runs
the organs of your body. The
storage battery is the nerve
cells in the brain and spinal
cord, and from this battery
nerve force is sent out through
the system of nerves. To keep
the body healthy you must
have plenty of nerve force; if
you have not, the organs work
imperfectly, the circulation is
sluggish, digestion bad, appe-
tite poor, kidneys inactive, and
aches, pains and misery are
the penalty.
You can keep the system
strong with DR.. Miles Nervine.
1t assists in generating nerve
energy; it strengthens the
nerves and makes the whole
system strong and vigorous.
~ take pleasure in recommending
Dr. Miles Nervine to those suffering
from nervous prostration, insomnia
and melancholy. After several
months suffering from above diseases
/ tried this medicine and found imme-
date relief. 1t soothes and strength
ems the nerves, chases away the
gloomy and depressing thoughts and
gives the sufferer renewed strength
and hope. 1t Is a superb nerve re-
storer."

IHsTAILING A BLOCK SYSTEM
Union Pacific Puts Up Wreck Prevent
ing Devices.

Last week the Union Pacific moved
the material to Kansas Falls for the
commencement Of the installation oil
the electric signals that will DO put in
there in the block system. Concrete
bases are being put in and the signal
equipment will be put up in most
substantial way. Material is being
placed at Sand Springs for station
there.
The Union Pacific has commenced
work all along it's line between Kan
sas City and Denver installing the
block system. Foundations upon
which will rest iron posts from which
10 suspended the alarm signals have
been built at many places. Just
when the signal posts will be erected
10 not known but it is understood that
the railroad will have the system in
operation this summer.
By the use Of this system II train
is within a mile on the same track the
red arm will tell 1t to the engineer.
A head,on collision is almost an inn
possibility where this system is used.
When a moving train gets within
certain distance Of one Of these signals
a battery will throw the signals and
thus give warning Of the trains ap'
proach. Thus engineers have protec-
tion in this way even when operators
make mistakes or should q train run
wild,
