DEATH OF MRS. ROBERT GREENE. Mrs. Annie White Greene, wife of Mr. Robert M. Greene, died at her home in Abbeville, Saturday evening i^fter a short illness. The funeral ex ercises were held Monday morning at 11 o'clock at the Presbyterian church conducted by Rev. H. Waddell Pratt, attended by a large number of rela tives and friends, and interment was at Lone Cane cemetery. Mrs. Greene is survived by her hus band, her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Charley White, one sister, Miss Lucy White, and one brother Mr. Jno. White, all of Abbeville. The bereaved family have the sym pathy of the entire community. Mrs. Greene was a nativo of Abbeville^ reared in our midst and was highly es teemed by all. Her death was peculiarly sad as she had been married less than a year, and had every promise of a life of happiness, anchored in the affection of her husband. But she has passed from the "vale of tears" leaving the young husband and her father's family in lonliness. Her Christian character and her sunny life re main as an heritage to her bereaved hus band and her family. Oil tllO SfPPAt? Some weeks ago Mrs. Douthart stated in the Press and Banner some facts about oiling the streets that she had observed du ring a short resilience in a northern town. If the information is correct and doubtless it is, the City of Abbevilife could not do better than try the experiment. If the cost and trouble of daily watering the streets can be eliminated and one oiling will last as long as Mrs. Douthart thinks, oiling will save money in the end. That immidiatee xpendenture would be consider able. there is no doubt, but eflfectivenes Is the thing to be desired. Oiling the streets does away with dust entirely, while watering, refreshing as it is at the time, lasts for only a few hours. If there is any considerable difference in the cost figured for the whole time that oiling will prove effective, it Is belie ved that the business men of the City would gladly make up a part of the differ ence. ' This project is well worthy of the serious consideration of the City Counsul, and the 1 Civic League, and it is suggested that they take it up partly with a view to ascertaili ng the cost.

It is claimed that the vote of this French pionrer Reserved a great j slicc of the norijnvest to the United States. The old Oregon teriitory, in-1 eluding Oregon, \Vash;ng:on, Idaho and a part of Wyoming, once trembled in the balance. *lay 3, 1343, settlers assembled at Chvmpoeg, Ore., to de-; cide -whether they should be under! British rule or ths rule of the United 1 States. Two linei formed, one for the British and one fcr 'he United States, and when the count was ~nade there j were fifty-one on ?ac.V. side. For many I minutes the men of thu two linesj glared at one another and not a word was spoken.

A largo gathering of Bengal notables, Euro- i pean and Indian, all the regular troops ; in the garrisoaj, and a large contin- ! gent or 60/ 2-:?outs witnessed the un- j veiling of tliy statue. The governor, Lord Carmichael, made a speech in which he praised Lord Kitchener's ability as a soldier and an adminis trator. Newspaper Novelty. The Germans are a practical people, At the little town of Eberswalde, near Berlin, the local newspaper is printed twice a week on one side of the pa per only, so iiat it can be used for wrapping up provisions without any touch of printer's ink. On these two days the papor la twice its ordinary size, so that the reader loses nothing in the way of reading matter. Credited to Gratification. A member of the Pacific Union club, San Francisco, owns a handsome place up in Marion county in which he takes great pride. A few days ago he was boasting that ho made $0,000 off it last year. "Did you include the earnings of the farm when you made your in come-tax .*eturn?" asked an irrev erent son of Benicia. "I did not. Why should I?" "Why you said you made $G,000 from it." "Oh, that wasn't ac tually cash; $5,000 of it was personal gratification." Sick Insurance in Prussia. Prussian K>ck insurance, which in amended form went into effect Janu ary 1, has been found applicable to domestic servants. In Berlin the rate j amounts to about ten per cent of the wages paid, which is considered out | of all proportion to the risk. The gov ernment is considering an amendment ; to separate the class of domestic serv- . ants from other labor. Mr. Meekton's Mean Idea.

A large private house iu San Fran cisco was recently moved tlong a nar dow street to a new site it; the ad joining block without blockading street car or vehicle traffic. A single track cable-cac line rung along the center of the street, and the width of the house was too gre:?t to permit it to be moved longitud nally along either side o<! the stree' at ground level without obstructifg the car track. The ptreet railway company objected to apy interference with ita service, so the contractor resorted to the expedient of jacking the structure to a sufficient height to t>ermit cara to pass beneath it. Cri5 work was then placed cfh the skidfc to support the house antf moving operations were performed in the ordinary method.? Engineering F-ecc^d. Duse Founds Artist Home. Eleonora Duse, the greatest actress in Italy, has contributed $2,000 toward the foundation of an artists' home or club in Rome. Signora Duse says that Italian actors and actresses in Italy are relegated to a sort of ghetto, and it is high time that they should have a home or club with a library, a reading room, a lecture hall, and other comforts. Very likely Signora Duse will give her villa in Rome for the artists' home which she hopes to have inaugurated next month. Teaching Backward Children. Miss Elizabeth E. Farrell, superin tendent of the ungraded schools in New York city, says that the person who is feeble in body may be restored to normal health, and it is the same witn a person reeoie in mind. Tne school of the future, she says, will cease talking about the weakness of a child and will emphasize his strength instead. Training will be based on what we know to be good for the individual child and not on what we have always thought to be good for children in general. Celtic Opera Trilogy.

Annoying Either Way. Mis. Stuyvesant Fish, at the recen' benefit of the Authors' society in New York, said to a rej>orter: "I like to see authors work together in hannonv Authors are prone, you know, to bt a little bit unfriendly. I said once tc a noted playwright: 'How is it that I never see you at any of your con freres' first nights?' 'Well,' he replied, 'I'll tell you.
