SOME NOTES FROM
 EDGEFIELD, s. c.
By ROSA c. JOHN

Alter enjoying Fourth of July barbe- cue, where handshakes and greeting, were given to town and country folk. we closed the memorable day by going to Trenton, to the funeral of Senator Tillman.
 The ride of seven miles was hot and dusty, by fields of corn and cotton that were suffering from rain As we went through this section of country we found the rains had been local, some parts suf- fering for rain, while the favored few crops were fine, with the promise of an abundant yield.

 Far and wide his acquaintance ex- tended; despised, hated by some, by oth- CTS idoized, he rose from tiller of the soil to powe" and fame.
 The little frame church he helped to build stands in a grove of oak trees, whose shade was eagerly sought by the NslllIIlB Iuultituue OI the people, could not seat comfortably many more than the senator's family and the senatorial escort.
 The remains were carried there from the train and were viewed by vast number of friends.
 The burial took place in Trenton in the cemetery. small though beautiful Its simplicity in accord with his wishes.
 Senator Tillmans work speaks for it. self. Coming from honest. strong big hearted and loyal people, he rose to high office and power. His last days were made gentler through introspection, he rose on his weakness to loftier heights and there died on the mount
 His sun is set, the reflection will light few to nobler labor and life Had he been more polished in speech and man ner, perhaps the refining process would have weakened the blood in his veins, his great brain used for policy. known something of vanity-man's weak point and his country been the loser in power
 Whatever his faults they lie buried with him. and the good he did will go on and meet him at the bar where his Pilot awaits him.

M. kerensky seemed reluctant to oe- lieve the news. asking repeatedly, Are you sure?" When informed that the news seemed perfectly reliable as II originated in Berlin. he said:
 "This may be the beginning of the renaissance of Russia"
 "But now the Germans will surely go to Moscow" he added, sadly IL was only a few days ago that keren- sky in a talk with the correspondent. expressed his opinion that the only reason German troops had not yet appeared in Moscow was because Won Mirbach had not required their pres ence there
 Should circumstances demand the appearance of German troops said the former premier on this occasion, Won Mirbach, the real ruler of Russia, will surely call upon them His ability to govern without the help of German bayonets has alone prevented the ap- pearance of German spiked helmets in the ancient capital of the Muscovite empire"
 When asked about the prospects of revolution breaking out in Moscow the former premier was noncommitdl.
 "One never knows what the Russian mind will conceive or what the Russian will will execute,'' he said. But from Moscow will come the initiative for movement against Germany"

 That same day. as we were tralnp- ing back over the road we had come, glanced back at Vimy ridge with it's monument on top to speak of the hero ism of the Canadian troops that cap tured it. It seemed incredible, mlr- acle. that human flesh and blood colld mount those steep. churned slopes and drive an enemy from defenses con- .structed painstakingly and considered imLrsgna ble.

'DR. SIMPSON SPEAKS
 ON THE MAN 0F AGES.
Musical Service at the First Christian Church Is
 Much Enjoyed

A delightful programme of vocal and Instrumental music was enjoyed at tiie service at the First Christian church
 last night. Miss Pointer, organist, and Miss Cheek soloist, were assisted by the Arion quartette with Messrs. Plank, Grain, Culver and Holmberg as a horn quartet pr. Simpson spoke on "The Man of the Ages" He said in part:
 The average man is the man of the passing moment, exceptional is the man of the hour rare is the man the centuries honor, unique is the man of the ages. Many are the men who have only to be lost from the sight of the world in the trough of oblivion's deep sea. Many are the great names that nave rotted with the decay of old is- sues. Dust unmolested covers the harpstrings of yesterdays musicians and the canvasses of yesterdays paint CTS. Towering above the throngs tLat have been men of the hour, to such height that the piled up years of 20 centuries cannot hide Him from the vision of the men of today, is He who was and ever shall be the Man of the Ages.
 He was the obscure man of Nag a"eth and His boyhood was as far be- low the plane of the average boys oL portunities as the caustic tongues of a Village could place it. His was a natural boyhood with no halo to diff rerentiate Him from other boys save that halo that any lad can wear in q race radiant with intelligence and the purity of clean heart
 The obscure man became the man of the hour. He threw himself against the current of public opinion. As the lightning bolt may destroy the tree that has the rings of age in it's trunk and its roots entwined with the gran- ite roots of mountain rock His ser mon on the mount shattered traditions and theories age-old and deep-rooted He vas the friend of the oppressed, the peacemaker fo- the troubled heart, and voiced the sweetest invitation that ever vooed the weary heart to rest
 Then the Man of the Hour became the Man of Humiliation Ther3 ,he Jingle of silver in the purse of false disciple. the whisper of betrayal on the lips of false friend, the .umult and torture of Calvary. But d morn- ing dawns with richer hues in the sky and sweeter fragrance in the lilies ana a more glorious coloring in tEe rainboWs that the fingers of sunlight weave out of the mists of Gallilee's srTay, when there is cradled in thu, of the race the rarest morn pf Times glorious progeny, the resur- rection morning, and the Man of Hu- initiation becomes the Man of the Ages"
