Death of Little Lille Sheriff.

Seneca, r. F. D.-special: On
Wednesday morning, November 13,
at Q o'clock, the spirit of little Lille
Sheriff winged its flight to the God
who gave It.. Ever since her birth,
for nearly fourteen years, she had
been an invalid-never knowing any
pleasures or joys whatever that this
life can give. Her life had been one
Of sufferin'gs. She has always had
the very best care that loving mo-
ther and father, brother an1 S'sters
could give, trying to make lc. af-
fiictions lighter for the little fragile
body to bear Never having walked
step in her life, her parents de-
voted SO much time to her--loved
and cared for her SO tenderly. What
a grand vision must have burst on
her sight as she closed her eyes here
to open them in glory. She is ano-
thor bud chosen from Gods garden.
After funeral services, conducted, by
Rev. G. l.. Mccain, her remains were
laid to rest in Friendship cemetery.
To the family we extend our heart
felt sympathies, and commend them
to Him who doeth all things well.

COTTON MILL WAGES.
And How they Help to Build Up
Prosperous Communities.

(From the Wall Street Journal.)
One Of the leading South Carolina
newspapers has been making a spe-
cial study Of cotton mill conditions
in that State. 1t reaches the conclu-
sion that the annual payment of
some lao cotton mills, from which
1T obtained reports, amounts to not
less than S12,000,00O. In other
words, an average of million dol
lars month goes out from the trea-
suries Of these manufacturing con-
Germs into the hands of wage-earners
who spend 1T in such ways as they
see At.
One of the certain things result
ing from the flow of such fund out
into the channels of business is the
building up of mercantile establish
ments of a greatly increased purchas-
ing power wherever these mills at
tract to themselves a community of
workers. So much as this is certain,
as one may see with his own eyes in
observing the changes which THU
presence Of a cotton mill has made
in the amount of merchandising
done.
But the effects of the introduction
of million dollars month INTO the
current uses of small community
acts like leaven on all other
branches of Investment. 1t has not
bsN unusuei. ii it not indeed the
ir,A, Yor, real estate within a radius
of SeY miles of cotton mills in the
Piedmont section of the Carolinas
and Georgia to appreciate in value
three or four times over since the
advent Of the mills.
Nor is this speculative result. 1t
comes about from the quickening ef-
feet OF the demand which several
hundred people, occupied with at
tending machinery, make upon the
cultivators of the soil for the vege-
table and the animal products of the
surrounding territory. Farmers
have seen the prices Of their own
products double in their own home
market. If only one-quartsr of the
$12,000,000 paid in wages by the
mills of South Carolina goes into
the pockets of the farmers continu-
ously from year to year, it is easy to
understand how this new life-blood
of free capital must stir and stimu-
late the enterprise which before the
introduction OF mills was for the
greater part of the time on the rag
ged edge Of financial failure.

Showed Nuggets Worth Thousands.

Seattle, Wash, Dec. 15.-J.e G..
Hosler is back from Alaska with a
weird tale about lake Of gold. He
says he has discovered the lake and
as proof brought with him pouch
of nuggets worth over $15O,OOO.

as well as mint. He said that three
months ago he met an Indian north
of Bellingham, who had shot his
squaw after she had beaten him and
was In hiding, The Indian became
sick and Hosler cared for him. Out
of gratitude he showed him the lake;
where there were countless nuggets.
The Indians, he says, worship the
Nuggets and drop them back into
the lake. One night, he told an Off
cial OF the assay office, he slipped
into the cold water of the lake, be-
ing careful to avoid the superstitious
Indians, and, in few hours collect
ed the nuggets he brought back with
him. He says the Indians call the
body Of water the Lake of Gold.

MADE HIS RECORD CLEAN.
Driver Had Missed One Rock and Had
to Go Back. 49,.

Some years ago Gen. Miles started
to drive from Red Lodge, Mont, to
Cody, Wyo., to see his friend, Buffalo
Bill The road was rough, and the
reckless driving of the man holding
the lines made 1t seem rougher, but
the Indian fighter compressed his
lips AID chung to the seat without
complaint. When near Cody the gen.
eral suddenly prodded the driver in
the back with his walking stick and
said curtly: Driver, turn around"
"What?" exclaimed the astonished
driver. DO as I tell you," command
ed Miles. So the man turned the
horses about and started back to Red
Lodge. Nov turn here" ordered
Miles, after they had driven few
yards. Convinced that his distin-
guished passenger had suddenly lost
his mind, the driver turned about
once more and started for Cody.
"There!" exclaimed Miles,. in tone
of satisfaction, as the side wheels
struck a stone and he bounded into
the air. You hit it,. Now, driver,
you can go back to. Red Lodge and
tell them that you drove rs miles and
never missed a rock. You've hit
them, every one.''

cHURN FOR A HEAD PIECE.
Piece of Mischief That Might Have
Had : ataI Results.

Nearly everyone has heard of the
man whose dog got his head caught
in a pitcher into which he had thrust
it after taste of the milk at the
bottom. The man cut the dogs head
off to save the pitcher and then broke
the pitcher to get the dogs head out.
An incident with almost similar fea-
lures occurred in the little village of
Stanton, N. c., the other day. The
children of Mr. Uriah Bumgarner
were playing on the porch of their
home. when small daughter picked
up churn, one of the old-fashioned
kind with large bottom and a small
opening, and in a spirit of mischief
placed 1T upside down over the head
OF her two-year-old brother, who was
sitting on the floor. The little girl ac-
cidentally dropped the churn and
down it went over the head of the
child, who began to yell. The father:
and several peighbors ran up and
found that the boy had turned his chin
upward and the churn could not be
removed. The upturned bottom of
the churn finally had to be sawed of
before the child could be released, AND
the little chap emerged from his
unique head covering almost dead
from fright.
