Our community was visited by
a nice ruin today which was very
much needed, and wo think it will
be of great benefit to people as
well as to cotton and corn.
The members of the Brass Bund
will make their first appearance in
public by giving a concort on
rhursday, June 16th, between
the hours of 6 and 8 oclock at the

Every body is invited.

Dentil ol'Miss l]vu May Kohlnson.
After an illness of four wcoks^
>f fever, this most estimable young
ady entered into rest at the home
)f her patents, on Elm Street,
ast Tuesday evening. She was /
ho oldest daughter of Mr.
(
tud Mrs. W. D. Robinson and (
,vas born in this county Oct. 3, f
LSSO. It was not hot- privilege (
o receivo ft collegiate education
. i
jut she had seized upon every t
>pportunity for mental culture (
iikI had equippod herself in the (
chool hero and by attendance on
J c
he county summer schools here
md tho Iftst three sessions or the j
state Normal Institute, to hecomo (
>ne of the most proticiout and sue- ^
essful teachers in the service t.f
he Lancaster graded schools. For 1
our years sho had been principal
f tho brauch of tho graded school
t tho cotton mill and tho best J
videnco of her cilieieucy and sue- t
e?s as a teacher is tho fooling of h
nubility on the part of tho board e
?f trustees to till tho position n
u ?i d o vac a n t by her /
mtimely death. Sho was a u
nember of tho A. 11. i\ church I
md possessed of a most charming r
ihristian character. Amiable and n
wcot in disposition, a lifo full of C
unshino and cheerfulness, is it f
my wonder sho made friends' c
vhorever she was known. It is t
lad that death should call such an n
>ne from our midst, but her work j 2
s finished. She has been called j (
o brighter scenes, to more lasting i 1
oys ?to oternal life.
After services by Rev. Chalmers
Eraser the remains were interred t
n Westside cemetery Wednesday (
iftornoon in the presence of a J j
urge concourse of sorrowing s
:riends. When the grave was fill- c
3d the new made mound \va^ lit j
iiully hidden from view by the j J
nnny beautiful floral tributes1 f
placed thereon. A very touching ! t
scene was theadvauciug of each of 1
the pupils of her school, with sad 1
countenance and sadder heart, and *
placing a bouquet on tho grave of j
their dearly beloved teacher. t
To the grief-stricken ones in
the homo overshadowed by gloom
!Uid sorrow, from which this lovely
flower of young womanhood was {
plueked, are extended the siucor- j
sst sympathies of their many '
friends. '

NFL1CT8 LOSS OF 1U0 MEN UPON
Til K HUSSIANS.
St. Petersburg, Juno 9. ? All
apanoso movements are interpreted
here as earned by anxiety to
atiiper as much ns possiblo whatver
movement Gen. Kuropatkin
nay be* making to help Port
Arthur. Not only have the Japnese
bombarded the west coast of
duo Tung peninsula where the
ail way runs close to the shore,
nuKingtcints of debarkation, but
ien. Kuroki has assumed the ofensivo
eastward. Ho has sent an
iverpoweringly strong column
hat drove out the Russians from
, fortitied position at Saimatazu,
1U miles northwest of Feng Wang
Iheng, inflicting a loss of 100
nen.
The authorities say that they are
v.thout information concerning
ho light at Saimtszsa beyond the
ifficiul dispatch that was made
Miblic tonight, but that the Russian
withdrawal was quite in oc
:ordance with Gen. Kuropatkhi's
>rearrangod plan, although the
Russian losses indicate stubborn
Ighting. Militai y critics profess
o he not altogether cortani
ivnoUicr Uen. Kuroki's move xiout
moans a real advance or i*
limply a feint t . distract Russian
ittention from Port Arthur, but
hey inclin ; to tho latter view.
