DEATH OT JA M KS ll. ADAMS.
Was Well Known and Greatly Lovell
in Anderson.
(Anderson Intelligencer, April 2.)
Tim news of the sudden death of
James ll. Adams at his home In Sen
e a will be received with regret by
?he people of Anderson. Ile was a
frequent visitor to Anderson and
had many friends here. Always in
? \ good humor and always ready for
i joke, ho made a friend ol' every
.acquaintance.
When death summoned him Wed
nesday there was taken from his rel
ines and friends oii earth a good
man. a Chlrstian gentleman, a man
who l<-i| a clean life, and who, In all
thlng? was conscientious, s ir? ?gut
forward and honest. There was
nothing pretentious about him. He
vas a plain man. true to every trust,
however small. God-fearing and God
loving. lt Is sad to thus lose an ex
emplary citizen. Every community
mourns when so bereaved. Yet it is
a sola? e to be warranted In honoring
good men in death as Seneca to-c i.'
honors James ll. Adams.
Mr. Adams never paid a visit to
Anderson bul that he dropped In to
see Thc Intelligencer force, and he
usually made his trips to Anderson
'when he know he would strike up
..sith his friend Caul. I). A. Taylor.
They were the best of friends, and
leither ever fred ol' seeing which
could gel off the best joke. Mr.
Adams was a good man-a man with
a heart as big as they make them,
and in his deal li the editor of The
Intelligencer feels that he has lost
one of lils best friends. We join the
friends of the family in extending
sympathies.

Discovery Mudo by Neighbor** Search
ing Knins of House.
Toledo, Ohio, April 1.-The bodies
of Ludwig Krueger and his wife Aero
found this afternoon buried under
the floor of the cellar in their home.
The discovery was made by neigh
bors while searching the remains
of the Krueger home, which burned
last night. Mr. Krueger is known to
have been paid $2,000 in cash last
week by M. Sobeleskl, a tailor, in To

Southern Policy Uoldera Nov. Safe.
Columbia, April 3.-Tho taking
over of the policies of the Southern
Lire by the Jefferson Standard Lifo
of Haleigh, which occurred at Fa>
ettevllle last Wednesday, meets tho
enthusiastic approval of South Car
olina's Commissioner, Mr. McMaster,
as It has the approval of Commis
sioner Young, of North Carolina. Mr.
McMaster, whose recent severe criti
cisms ol' Lacey and Cooper of the
Southern Life in revoking that com
pany's license, brought forth some
sharp retorts from Mr. Cooper, is de
lighted ? Lat the South Carolina pol
icyholders are to be so thoroughly
protected by such a solid company as
the Jefferson Standard.
' The Jefferson Standard Life,"
said Mr. MciMasler, "is one of tho
strongest Southern Companies, and
I nm much pleased to learn of its
purchase of the Southern Life. The
Jefferson Standard lias assets of
about $511,000, of Which $250,000
is capital and $230,000 general sur
plus, making $180,000 surplus to
policyholders. The policyholders of
the Southern Life are now In a strong
company which is above reproach."

SMALLPOX IX DEADLY FORM.
Several Deaths nt Vorkvllle, Whore
Disease Has lb-come Kpidcmie.
Yorkvllle, April 2.-Several deaths
have resulted from smallpox in the
city during the hist few days and
new cases are developing dully. The
situation lias become so serious that
the Slate board of health has taken
the matter up. This city and Lan
catser, where the disease has broken
out In a malignant form also, will
probably be quarantined by order of
the board.
The people of the two cities are
almost panie stricken. Occasional
cases of smallpox in a mild form have
not been unusual here dilling the
past few years, but it was seldom
that a death occurred from lt. The
present outbreak is nothing less than
an epidemic and the disease seems
to be of ti deadly form. Improvise 1
pest houses are being used and every
means will bo brought to bear to
stamp out the disease.
A BRIDE SPRAINS HER ANKLE.
While changing from one train to
another a few days ago a bride
wrenched her ankle very badly. She
was afraid sha would be lanie for
some time, for the ankle pained ber
and was swelling rapidly. One of
her fellow passengers brought her ri
bottle of Sloan's Liniment. The Lini
ment stopped the pain at once and
took down the swelling and next day
her ankle was almost as strong as
ever.
L. Roland Bishop, of Scranton,
Pa., says: "On the 7th of this pres
ent month, as I was leaving tho build
ing at noon for lunch, I slipped and
fell, spraining my wrist. I returned
In the afternoon, and at 4 o'clock I
could not hold a pencil In my hand.
I returned home at 5 o'clock and
purchased a bottle of Sloan's Lini
ment and used lt five or six times be
fore I went to bed, and the next day
I was able to go to work and use my
hand as usual. I thought sure I
would be laid up, and as we are
busy I was very much worried. I
cheerfully recommended Sloan's Lin
iment to all persons who may Injure
themselves In any way."
