Vanderbilt, 52, multimillionaire, philanthropist and sportsman of international reputation, died here at 1 o'clock this afternoon from heart failure folowing an operation for appendicitis Tuesday. His death came suddenly. Mr. Vanderbilt was born in the old Vanderbilt home at New Dorp, Staten Island, November 14, 1862. In 1885 he became interested in the wild mountain region of western North Carolina and by successive purchases he accumulated an estate of 100,000 acres on the - ? - J I-.'J *-K French Broad river ana j?iu uui tijoir i a vast park and erected buildings on a ' scale which has seldom been equaled in this country. George Yanderbilt's fortune was never a factor in Wall street. He was supposed, however, to be one of America's wealthiest men. He had a number of charities and he spent monev without stint upon the development of his mountain estate. He seldom went to New York, but spent part of his summers at Bar Hardor, Me., where he had a handsome home. In 1898 Mr. Vanderbilt married Miss Edith Stuyvesant Dresser. Mrs. Vanderbilt and one child, a daughter, survive him. The funeral was held Monday at noon from Bethlehem chapel of the cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul (Episcjpal). Interment will be made Tuesday in the family vault on the old Vanderbilt estate at New Dorp, Staten Island. > REPORT OF THE CONDITION I"""" wmam of the CAROLINA NATIONAL BANK at COLUMBIA, S. C..

Saluda, March 9.?In a "mir-up" Sunday betwsen Will Adams, eon of Pat Adams, and Kirksey Walton, both young white men, the details of which have not been learned, Adam9 received two gunshot wounds and Walton had his throat cut. The affair occurred at the home of vonng Walton, some seven miles west of Salnda. One of the wounds received by Adams was in his arm and the other in his leg. Walton was pretty severely cat about the neck and throat. Neither of them are dangerously wounded. Walton was here this morning for medical attention. It is not known what the cause of the trouble grew out of or who is to blame for its beginning. Walton had a very narrow escape, for it was by a hair's breadth that his jugular vein was not reached. WE HAVE FAITH IH THIS STOMACH REMEDY A woman customer said to us the other day, "Say, you ought to tell everyone in town about Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. I would myself if I could.'' That set us to thinking. So many people have used them and have so enthusiastically sounded their praises both to us and their friends, tiat we had an idea you all knew about them. But, in the chance that some of you who suffer from indigestion, heartburn, dyspepsia, or some other stomach complaint, don't know about them?we are writing this. They contain Bismuth and Pepsin, two of the greatest digestive aids known to medical science. They soothe and comfort the stomach, proa 4- V* rv cor?i?ofinTi r\4- rr o rtrio minn IJLiUlU LUC OtOI ^ L1UI1 \JL JUlUt, help to quickly digest the food and convert it into rich, red blood, and im-prove the action of the bowels. We believe them to be the best remedy made for indigestion and dyspepsia. We certainly wouldn't offer them to yon entirely at our risk unless we felt sare they would do you a lot of good. If Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets do not relieve your indigestion, check the heartburn, and make it possible for you to eat what yon like whenever. you like, come back and get your. money. *-"f Sold only at the more than 7,000 Rexall Stores, and in this town only at our store. 1 hree sizes, 25c, 50c, and $1.00.?Harmon Drug Co., Lexington, S.

Daniel Pickens Holly was born May 20, 1349, and died Feb. 23, 1914, at the residence of his son, John R. Holly, at Gilbert, 8. C. Bro. Holly joined the church when yoang. He first joined the Lutheran church and remained-a member of that churc h until Rehobtth church on the Leesville circuit was built. He then connected himself with that church And remained a membe of the Methtdist church until his death. He took an active part in the building of Rehobeth church and became one of its strongest supporters Bro. Holly was married to Margaret Dovenia Price about the year 1806. To this union ten children were born. Eight of which are still living and thirty-three grand-children and three great-grand-children to mourn his death. His wife died about two years ago, which was a great shock to him and about three months ago one daughter died very suddenly which was another shock and it is thought it caused him to break down in health. About seven weeks ago he had a severe stroke of paralysis from which he never recovered. It was the privilege of the writer to be with him severalitime during his illness and read and Sprayed with him. He seemed, when conscious, to love to nave me read and pray, on being asked if the Lord was with him said yes. We have never heard aught against him. He was a good man and consistent Christian. In the absence of his pastor in the presence of a very large congrega- j tion of relatives and friends the writer ! performed the funeral seryices, after ! wnich his body was laid away to rest j hy the side of his wife in the cemetery ( at Rehobftth church to await the ! repnnverion morn when we expect to ! meet him again. J. M. Gawjne. ! i FOR DEUCRTE CHILDREN ! _ I A Mother's Letter to Mothers. Mrs. E. W. Cooper of Bloomfield, N. J., says: "My child, seven years old, had a bad cold and was weak and quite run down in health. She J bad been in this condition for about j six weeks when I began giving her I Vinol. It was a wonderful help to the child, breaking up her cold quickly and building up her strength beside. I have also found Vinol a most excellent tonic for keeping up the children's strength during a siege of whooping cough." Vinol is a wonderful combination of two world-famed tonics?the medicinal body building elements of cod liver oil and iron for the blood, therefore it is a perfectly safe medicine for children, because it is not a patent medicine, everything in it is printed on every package, so mothers may know what they are giving their little ones. I Therefore we ask every mother of a weak, sickly or ailing child in this vicinity to try Vinol on our guarantee. HABMON DBUG COMPANY Lexington, S. C. DENTISTRY AT DITAwniWARTr PPirFC f-%.
