Gen. Joseph Wheeler, the famous Confederate cavalry leaner and a bri gadier general of the United States army since the war with Spain, died at 5.35 o'clock Thursday afternoon at the home of his sister, Mrs. Sterling Smith, in Brooklyn. Tne veteran of two wars was 69 years old, but in sotte of his age, theie was hope until Thursday of his recovery from the at tack of pneumonia, which caused the death. It has not yet been announced where the body will be buried, but probably it will be in Arlington cem etery, near Washington. Announce ment for the plans for the funeral will be made tomorrow. Gen. Wheeler was taken ill six days aco at his sister's home, where he has been living re cently. He contracted a severe cold which developed into pleurisy and pneumonia. From the first bis age told against him but the family did not give up hope until Wednesday night, when the disease was found to have affected both lungs. Gen. Wheeler's Immediate relatives were all with him. His daughters, Mrs. W. T. Harris and the Misse? Anne, Lucille and Carrie Wheeler, nad been summoned from the South und arrived early in the week. His son, Maj. Jos. Wheeler, Jr., ?. S. A., now stationed at West Point, was also present, as well as Gen. Wheeler's alster, Mrs. Sterling Smith, and her on. - The family were summoned to the bedside of the patient at midnight Wednesday night, when the doctor's in consultation concluded that the end was but a matter of hours. The gen eral was then awake and conscious and his mind was apparently active. He teemed to1 know that death was ap proaching and though too weak to speak, he succeeded in giving signs of recognition and encouragement to his children. Later the general sank into a peace-1 ful slumber, and at the request of the doctors the family quietly withdrew from the sick man's bedside. Gen. Wheeler was never again more than semi-conscious. He lingered un til this evening and passed away quietly. GEN. WHEELER'S CAREER. Joseph Wheeler, soldier, born in Augusta, Ga., Sept. 10,1836. He was graduated at the United States Mili tary academy in 1859 and assigned to the dragoons. After a year's service at the cavalry school for practice at Carlisle, Pa., he received the full rank of second lieutenant, but on April 22, 1861, resigned and entered the. Con federate army. He was made oolonel of the Nineteenth Alabama infantry on Sept. 4, 1861, and served princi pally In the West. At Shlloh he commanded a brigade and covered the Confederate retreat from the field. In July, 1862, he was transferred to a cavalry command and engaged in raiding Western Tennessee During the Kentucky campaign of that year he had charge of Gen. Brax ton Bregg's cavalry and fought at Green Elver and Perryville. He com manded the rear guard of the Confed erate army when it retreated into Tennessee and on October 30, 1862, was promoted to brigadier general. At Murfreesboro he was in charge of the cavalry, and thereafter he was contln uously active in contesting Gen. Wil 11am S. Rosecrans' advance, also at taching his hanks, raiding in the rear and destroying his trains. Oa Janu ary 19, 1863, he received his'commis sion as major general and opposed the Union advance at Chattanooga. He commanded the cavalry at Cnicka mauga and after the battle crossed Tennessee river and fell upon Rose cranB' line! of communications, defeat ing the foroe that was sent against him and destroying over 1,200 wagons with stores. On this raid he succeeded in damaging federal property to the value of 83,00J,000, but, after losing 600 men, was driven back to .oothern Alabama. Subsequently he took part in the siege of Kaoxvllle and covered Bragg's retreau from Lincoln Ridge and Lookout Mountain. During the winter and spring he coninually harassed the Union trrops, and, on the advance of Gen. William T. Sherman's army toward Atlanta, he opposed every movement and fought almost daily, often with his men dis mounted. July 27-30 he f >ught the raiding f^rce cf Gen. Gao. Stoneman, General Kanner Gerard and Gen. Ei ward M. McCook, and captured many prisoners, including Gen. Stoneman and all the artillery and transporta tion. On Aug. 9, 1864, he was sent by Gen. John D. Hood to capture the na tional supplies, burn bridges and break up railways in the rear of Gen. Sherman's army. Passing through northern Georgia, he went into east ern Tennessee as far as the Kentucky line, and thence through middle Ten nessee back into northern Alabama. During this raid, which lasted one month, he was continuously engaged and ruined much property. He was unsuccessful in destroying Sherman's communications, and was finally 1 riv en back by the national cavalry.

Many citizens of JOrangeburg have food reason tobe thankful for burdens if ted from aching backs, which they bore patiently for years. Scores tell abou t their experience publicly. Here's a case of it: A.' S. Cbaney. mill hand in the Cot ton Mill, says: ? "My back and kidneys troubled me for a number of years. A dull heavy pain existed in the small of my back, taking all ambition out of me and preventing me from getting any rest or sleep at night. At times it was so severe as to make me lay off from work for flays at a time, which means dollars and cents. I consulted a docior and he told me after a thor ough examination that I had diabetes. 1 could not well afford the extensive treatment he thought necessary and I tried the best recommended remedies I kne v of, but not receiving any bene fit from any of them I was actually discouraged. Some one told me about Doan's Kidney Pills and I procured a box at the J. G. Wannamaker Mfg. Co. I did not expect them to do me any more good than any other reme dies I had tried and could hardly be lieve my own feeling when my back stopped aching. In a short time the kidney secretions oecame normal and regular, I rested well at nights and my work became a pleasure to me.
