A Noble Christian Has Gone.
The sad intelligence of the death
of Dr. D. Lather Boozer, a native cf
this county, but for a number of
years a resident of Columbia where
he successfully practiced his dental
profession. Lately he removed to
Newberry where, he together with his
two youngest sons, established and
successfully operated a roller flour
mill plant, and died at 5:45 in the
afternoon of June 2Gtb, aged about
G5 years. Dr. Boozer was a man of
lofty Christian character, and was
active in every movement tending
to elevate fallen humanity and to
improve his moral and spiritual con
dition. As an advacate of the doctrine
of total abstinence he waged a relentless
warfare against the traffic of
whiskey and his earnestness in this
direction commenced his work to the
moral philanthrophist and placed
him in the foremost rank in the
Christian army. Dr. Boozer has
served his day and generation well
and the full influence of his well
spent life can never be fully estimated
until the Master comes to make
up his jewels. The world was made
batter by his sojourn in it, but his
work was finished and the battle
fought, and God has called him to
partake of those higher and everlasting
joys which cluster in rich and

home of the glorified saints who
have had their robes washed in the
blood of the Lamb and have come
up through much trials, persecutions
and tribulations.
\
He mairied a Miss Barre, a sister
of our fellow-townsman, W. W. Barre,
who together with five eons and a
sister, Mrs. J. J. Lown, of this
county, survive him.
His remains were taken to Columbia
and interred in Elmwood cemetery.
Important Enterprise.
The Secretary of State has issued a
commission to the Saluda Biver Electric
and Construction Company of
Batesburg, in Lexington county,
which is to furnish electric lights,
power, etc. The corporators are: A.
Gamewell LaMotte, of Columbia, and
J. William Mitchell and E. F.
Strother of Batesburg. The capital
stock is not stated.
Mr. A. Gamewell LaMotte, is a
successful young business man and
rising civil ongineerof Columbia, and
Messrs. Mitchell and Strother are
well known young financiers of Batesburg,
and they have without exception
carried all their undertakings to
a successful completion. Such is
their reputation that their names
used in connection with any enterprise
inspires confidence and gives it
strength, it is safe to say, therefore,
that they will push the present project.
The enterprise will bo a paying
investment to its stockholders. We
hope the day is not for in the distance
when Batesburg and Lexington
will be brought into closer business
and social relations through the
instrumentality of an electric railway.

Death of Mr. Jeff Shull.
Another good and useful citizen of
Lexington county has ceased his
labors on earth to enter into the
joys of heaven. Mr. Jeff Shull, who
resided fit TSrnnlvland. died Wednes
day at his home in that place and |
was buried at St. David's on Thurs- <
day. Mr. Shull was a man of sturdy I
and industrious habits and lived up to i
the ecriptuai injunction of doing unto j
others what he would have others to i
do unto him. He discharged all the j
duties of citizenship as he conceived !
to be for the best interest of his State
and county was true to the ordinances
of bis church and the laws of his ;
God. He builded a pretty home
near St. David's church where he
resided up to a few years ago when
he purchased a home in Brooklsnd,
moved there and remained there '
until his last sickness prostrated him ;
upon a bed of sickness and death.

A Change.
Mr. Alfred J. Fox, who has been ;
employed by Mr. W. P. Roof for the
past seven years, as book-keeper and
teller of Lexington Savings Bank,
has resigned his position. Mr. Fox's
failing health last summer caused
Mr. Roof to shorten his office hours,
requiring him to work from 9 a. m.
to 4 p. m. The increasing business
of Mr. Roof now requires all of Mr.
Fox's time, which he cannot give to
it, by reason of the close confinement,
which his health will not allow.
He and Mr. Roof regret to sever
their business relations which has
covered quite a number of years, yet
it is by the consent of both that a
change is made.
Mr. Fox has already had a similar
position offered him, but be will take
a rest during the summer months
and devote his time entirely to his
lumber and insurance business, and
to other matters just now claiming
his attention.
Mr. Smith of Columbia succeeds
Mr. Fox as book-keeper and
teller of Lexington Savings Bank.
