All LexingtOD was saddened on Sunday morning by the announcement of the death in Washington, D. C., of Mr. Julius B. Ballentine, a former resident of this place, and a son of Mr. and Mrs. D. E.

Mr. Ballentine left Lexington last March * J * /\ nntiurt to accept a position wiui uuc CICt/UlV I street railway company in Washington, and by close attention to his duties had recently been promoted to conductor. About two months ago he was taken ill with fever which soon developed into typhoid, and his condition. had been critical for several weeks. His sister, Miss Emma Ballentine, had been with him for the past four weeks and hi9 father for the last two weeks. Both were at his bedside when the end came. Julius Ballentine was one of the most popular,, young men ever reared in this sectioih For several years he was engaged in business with his father in this town and later at Ballentine. Being of a generous disposition he soon made friends with ?very one with whom he came in contact. He mod oItttottq roaHr heln a friend in rw oo uinwjo ? ?r ? need, and he will be 9orely missed, not only by his family, but by a large circle of friends. The remains reached Lexington on the early train yesterday morning and was carried immediately to St. Peters' church, about four miles from Lexington, where the funeral services were conducted by the Rev. J. A. Cromer in the presence of one of the largest congregations ever gathered together to pay the last respects to a departed loved one.

Ba.lentine, and two brothers and sisters as follows: Mr. Henry Ballentine of Ballentine, and Mr. Quincy Ballentine of Milledgeville, Ga.; Misses Emma Ballentine of Spartanburg and Lula Ballentine of this place. The bereaved family have the sincerest sympathy of a large coterie of friends in this hour of supreme sorrow. Mr. Ballentine was 2S years of age. Death, of Mis. Lavinia Long. Mrs. Lavinia Long, widow of the late J. Luther Long, died at her home in this town Mondav afternoon, at 5 o'clock, after an illness of several weeks with typhoid fever, which she bore with that Christian fortitude which characterized her whole life. The remains were laid to rest in St. Stephen's cemetery yesterday afternoon in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends. The funeral services were conducted from the church by Rev. A. S. Leslie, who paid a beautiful tribute to the deceased. Mrs. Long is survived by five chil-. dren, all grown, four daughters and one son as follows: Mrs. Milton Lorick, Mrs. W. A. Lorick and Misses Marie and Alma Long and Mr. Saml. 'Long. Mrs. Long was 66 year9 of age and had been a resident of Lexington for several years. She was of quite disposition, a devoted mother, and true neighbor, always displaying the kindliest feelings for all. She will be missed from the household, but that blessed promise is assured to those left behind, that she is now basking in the sunlight of her Lord and only waiting to welcome them when the day of life is ended. Sappy Family Beunion. On September 26th, the home of Mrs. Martha E. Dreher, widow of the lamented John Jacob Dreher, at Selwood, was the scene of a happy family reunion. This was the fourth reunion of the Dreher family, since the children have been gfown, the first one having been held in 1887. About forty persons were present, all connected by family ties, except Rev. and Mrs. W. P. Cline. Those present were: Dr. and Mrs. Julius D. Dreher, of Tahiti, Society Islands; Mr. and Mrs. B. L. Dreher, Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Dreher, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Dreher, of Berlin, Germany; Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Dreher, Mr. E. L. Dreher, of Columbia, Supt. E. S. Dreher, of Columbia, Mr. H. R. Dreher. All of Mrs. Dreher's grandchildren and a number of near relatives of the family were present. This is indeed a noted family. All of the children are highlv educated and all are now holding fine positions. The boys, like their father, are endowed with that high trait of charac ter which make them loved, honored and respected in the various sections in which they live. Mrs. Dreher is now 85 years of age and it is the wish of all that she may live to enjoy many more reunions. Dr. Julius Dreher left for his home in the far away Pacific and Mr. W. C. Dreher left also for his home in Berlin, Germany, last week. The great white plage cost America 138,000 lives and a billion dollars yearly. ? ft ^58^ 1523 Main St. New Furniture Store.
