His Life.

Greenville, Nov. 30.-The body Of
w. u. Watson, the Furman Univer-
sity student who disappeared from
his room yesterday morning, was
found short distance from the city,
on the Augusta road, this morning.
The belief Is that he died from poi
son taken by himself.
AS nearly as can be ascertained,
Watson left his room in the Judson
Cottage about o'clock Friday morn
Ing. His roommate was asleep at
the time he left, but walked up soon
after, and upon not finding the young
man, reported the matter to other
students in the dormitory. An in
vestigation revealed the fact that
watson had left without his collar
and tie and watch. 1t was also no.
ticed that bottle Of laudanum,
which the young man was known to
have had In his possession for some
time, and which he is thought to
have used externally, was missing
from the room.
Mr.. Watson, who was 81 years of
age, came to Furman University
about October 1st. He stated that
he was graduate of the Citadel,
finishing there ten years ago. From
the time he graduated up until the
time he came to Furman he taught
school at various places in Horny
county. The young man stated that
he desired to enter the Fitting School
and go all the way through college.
rs ne h&d i0Und hImSGI so deficient
=. some branches he wishca to begin
all over again
About ten days ago WutsoD He-
came III and @ag Conlncd to his
room AMt!i aGo4L IAulsday. He made
frequent visits to physician and
seemed to be suffering from some
nervous trouble. He asked that the
physician request the authorities to
excuse him from his studies until he
was better. This was DONE When
seen on the campus Thursday by one
of the Fitting School professors he
seemed to be in very respondent
mood. His companions state that he
acted somewhat Queerly Of late;
seemed to be in a very downcast
mood and worried about something,
and sometimes talked queerly,
though no one suspected that he was
in any way mentally deranged.

criminal.
Every neglected, Improperly fed
and poorly clothed child in a COM
munity.i is a menace to every other
child in that community. Every dis
eased individual is a danger to all
other persons with whom he comes in
contact, and this contact may be only
the traversing Of the streets, or ex-
decorating upon the sidewalks.
So It would seem that since we all
want to be healthy and free from
disease and crime, the olny thing to
do is to look after those who, for want
Of proper support. are more likely to
become diseased or to turn out to be
criminals. Until every community
does so, in fact, we have no right to
attribute any superior virtue to our
selves. ~.
