A freight train backing out of the yards

Intelligent, respectful, quiet and unob
trusive, she was a young woman of
whom white and colored alike bad but
good to say. Hor remains were buried
at Flat Rock colored cemetery, near
town, on Thursday afternoon.
A Good Liniment.
When you need a good reliable lini
ment try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It |
has no superior for sprains and swellings.
A piece of dannel slightly dampened
with Pain Balm is superior to a plaster
for lame back or pains in the side or
ohest. It also relieves rheumatic pains
and malees sleep and rest possible. For

Death ol Mrs. Daisy E. Parker.
We regret to record tho doath, on
Thursday "last, November loth, 1000, at
Atlanta, Ga., of Daisy E. Parker, a be
loved daughter of Mr. aud Mvs. W. W.
Burley, so well known and ref pocted in
this neighborhood. She was born July
14th, 1880, and was married to Mr. Parker
on Auguut 28th, 1001. Her body was
embalmed and brought to Walhalla,
where tho funeral took place on Friday
at the Baptist cemetery. The funeral
procession arrived at the Walhalla Bap
tist church about half-past three o'clock
and was met by Pastor G. H. Judd and
the Rev. E. S. Jones, of the Methodist
claire h. The service was impressive.
Prayer was offered by the Rev. E. S.
Jones. The hymns, "Safe in tho Arms
of Jesus" and "Nearer My God to Thee,"
we 3 sung, being favorite one? of the de
oeased. After the Scripture reading
Pastor G. H. Judd spoko to the sorrow
ing mourners. He said that no human
sympathy oould go deep enough to give
real comfort; only the Lord Jesus oould
bind up broken hearts and send the Com
forter. One said to him o" ber dying
bed : "God knows the rigr me to take
His ohildren home." The cord of love
whioh bound thurn to the departed was
not severed, but now pulled heavenward
instead of earthward. The word ceme
tery meaus sleeping place. There would
be an awakening iu the morning. The
Germans formerly oalled it God's acre.
The precious seeds wero sown oue by
one and God's harvest time was coming
and there would bu a glorious reunion,
when all of Christ's people would awake
in His likeness, and as we have borne
the imago of tho earthy Adam, wo should
also boar the imago of the heavenly.
Ho know that the departed sister had
gone to bo with Jesus; washed in the
blood of the Lamb, and faith could say
of her :
Just gone within the voil, where I shall
follow ;
Not far before me, hardly out of sight;
I down beneath thee in this cloudy hoi
low,
And thou abovo mo on yon suuuy
height;
There to begin a now and happier story;
Thy little tale of earth now told am
done; .
Those outer shadows for that inner glory
Exchanged forever, Oh ! thrice blessed
ono !
Some earnest words to those unpre
ftared to die followed. He quoted
tues that ho had copied from D. L.
Moody's pocket Bible:
My pulse is the clock of my life,
It shows how my moments are flying,
It marks the departure of time,
And tells me how fast I am dying!
Somo day it would be said "He has
gone"-but where ? Throe deaths were
montionod :
1. Spiritual doath-the separation of
tho soul from God; and some present
might have dead souls in living bodies:
the Lord Jesua was preseut and could
raise to spiritual lifo.
2. Tho doath wo mourn to-day, the
separation of tho soul from the body.
8. Eternal death, the separation of
both body and soul from Goa forever.
Death came either with a spade or a
sythc. Ho rejoiced to know that to thc
dei tai t ed sister death came with a spado
to transplant hor from oarth to a oetter
world. To some death came with a
syt he. to cut down.
The Rov. E. S. Jones gavo a vory help
ful, praotioal mossago for daily living. He
said friends should remember us whou we
ar? gone by our kind words and actions.
Some people wo are glad to forget, but
others leave a fragrant memory and wo
can never forget them. A fow years'
ago the loving words and actions of
ono dear to him woro so impressed ns
still to bo frosh in his memory. Ho re
membered the deceased by her bright
smile and words and sunny disposition,
all hough only onoe in her company. Kind
acts aud bright words and faco will
loavo a happy roraombranco as woll as a
blessing at tho time.
At tho grave anothor favorito hymn of
tho deceased was sung, "We Shall Moot
on That Beautiful Shore Bye and Bye."
Tho sorrowing father said aloud to all:
"God grant that it may bo so."
Tho bereaved family is known and be
lo vod by a largo circle of friends, and

Big Fire at Townville.
[Anderson Mail, November 17th.]
The oil mill at Townville was de
stroyed by fire at 3.30 o'clock this morn
ing. Tho origin of the fire is not known.
The Haines were li rut. discovered in the
prcas room of tho oil mill, and soon
spread to the other rooms. Practically
the entile nil mill plant was humed.
The giunery escaped. A small wooden
building, containing S. R. Johnson's
wood shop, was also ouvued. The Town
ville Oil Mill was owned by a stock com
pany, of which L. N. G?**r is president,
lt was established about I'troe years ago
and has been very successful. It was
unique in the history of cotton seed oil
mills, in that it was located ten milos
from a railroad. The plant was insured
for $10,500 in J. ll. von Hasseln & Son's
agency, of this city, and this probably
covers the loss.

You Know the Studebaker Wagon
l'or more than fifty years its reputation has grown better every year.
This reputation is due to tho good quality that has always been a part
of the Studebaker Wagons. Each part is made from the lumber that is
best fitted foi that part. New England black birch makes the best hubs
the Studebaker hubs are made of it. Butt cut, second growth black hick
ory is the best for axles-Studebaker axles are made of it. Selected
white oak is best for spokes and running gears-that is what is used in the
Studebaker Wagon. The Studebaker Wagon
Is Perfect In Every Detail
That is why we sell it. Come in and let us talk it over. We have some
interesting wagon books for every one.
