Tlio community was saddened last
Saturday morning to hear of the fleatn
of Mrs. M. A. Niles which had- oc
curred at the home of her daughter.
Mrs. W. L. McDowell, the night bo
fore. While friends knew that she
had not been well for sonic time, they
did not dream that the end was so
near. In fact she had been better
than usual on Friday, up all day, in
terested iu all surroundings, retiring
at 0 :.'i(> bright and happy. The end
came a few hours later with the family
and physician at her bed side.
Mrs. Niles was before her marriage.
Martha Ann Crebn. She was horn
on a Southern plantation in Kichland
county in 1S41 and was married to the
late Mr. Arlo Niles. of Camdeu, Dec
ember 2.'J, 1850. and with the exception
of her girlhood on the Richland planta
tion spent her long life iu Camden.
She was the wife of a brave Con
federate soldier and suffered in. com
mon with the women of the South
through that war and through the try
ing days of reconstruction. Hut brave,!
patient and industrious, she won out
iu the struggle as she also did in her
widowhood that followed a few years
later. She lived i<> a ri|>e old aire,
reaping a rich reward for a well spent
life iu the love and devotion of her
children. A life-long member of the
Methodist church and faithful to its
teachings she has gone to a richer re
ward in the great beyond. Mode*! and
retiring by nature, her lif"' w?? quiet
and unpretentious, and her parsing
was in accordance with it Tin; me*
senger came unannounced and with
out warning ami she slipped away in
to a beautiful home ? "a home not
made with hand*, eternal in the Hea
vens."
The fo| lowing children survive: Mrs.
W. W. Mickle. Mrs. W I.. McDowell.

that he would remain la Miami Ami

changed ti is mind after a conference
with Hi shop Cameron Mann, presld

was told that ,he would be felveu full

home for day and night duty, while
Chief of Pol ire lUtlon said he also
would -assign two patrolmeiit to guard

"I am leaving Miami of my own
volition," Irwin declared, "even though
I have been offered the protection of
local authorities and the British vice
consul 1 bolie\;e it would be the best
for all concerned that I leave on ac
count of the intense feeling stirred
up against me by reports that I had
preached social equality and Inter
marriage of the races, despite the fact
that these reports are false. At first
I decided to stay and face the conse
dueiices, but after giving careful con
sideration to the matter I have decided
that, even if I remained, further work
wouhl be under a terrble handicap
and would possibly lead to much bit

"The eltv ami county authorities

told me plainly that 1 probably would
be killed if I remained. I am poing
to New York, where I will request
my superiors in the church to pive iue
an assignment In another section of
the country where 1 Will not be mis*
understood."
The grand jury investigation of the
Incident continued today. Irwin again
appeared and denied that he hail
preached social equality. It is under
stood that the jury secured no cvi-,
deuce to bear out the charges against
him.
Bishop Mann issued a statement to

Irwin had preached radical doctrines
and defended the work of the clergy

SHOWED KIM HOW
Mr. Brown Learned Something
From His Better Half.
Of Course Her Knowledge Was Not
Scientific but the Cork Came
Out of That Bottle.
Brown had been puttering around In
the bathroom for a half hour, while
Mi's, Ilhivvu gitiw more and more ner
vous I'rom experience she knew that
trouble was brewing when her lord ami
master busied himself about the
bouse, ami she was aware that he was
m>t taking a hath in the middle of a
Sunday morning. Presently there came
a crash of laMin^s Into the por
celain tub, ami Mrs. Hrown was glad
that the children had not yet returned
"front Sunday s? Itool.
"What I* the matter? Can 1 help
you, dour?" Mis. Hrown called bright
ly. For reply Hrown came hi to* the
Hying room ajid stared at his better
half with an expression In whleh pa
tient sutTerlng, rage, mockery and sus
picion w ore /nicely blended. In hl,s
hand, sn,\s the New York Sun, he held
n bottle, empty, except for a cork that
had been pushed Inside.'
"No, you cannot help me." he de
clared bitterly. "When (ltd you ever
help me? To satisfy your Inordinate
curiosity 1 will sn.\ that l am get
ting the cork out of this bottle, and,
having the innate masculine qualities
of determination and inventiveness, 1
will accomplish this seemingly Impos
sible task, and your little plan -to an
noy me will fall through. Of course
I know that you deliberately pushed
the cork down into this bottle, though
how you giiessed that I would wish to
?j.se this particular Mask 1 haven't yet
taken the trouble t < > figure out.
"I presume that even you know that
heat expands an article? Very well,
then: all that Is necessary is to heat
tln? neck of this bottle until It expands
uml l hen shake out the cork. Have
you i be frankness to admit that that
w^uld never have occurred to you?"
'?>?*?. 1 do not think that would have
occurred to me," Mrs. Hrown answered.
"You see, I am afraid that glass is dif
ferent from metal in respect to re
sponding to temperatures, and, be
sides It seems to me that If, you make
the glass expand It will expand in
ward as well us outward, and so real
ly make the opening in the neck of
the bottle smaller. Now, what I'd
do would be to.?"
"Never mind what you'd do," retort
ed Brown. "You have sufficiently dem
onstrated your ignorance for once.
In u few minutes I will show you the
happy results when scientific knowl
edge and ingenuity go hand In hand."
Whereupon he stalked out to the
kitchen, and Mrs. Brown heard him
lighting the gas stove. A few minutes
i later there was a howl uf anguish from
j the kitchen.
.??Probably your Idea Is entirely
scientific and- all right," she soothed,
as she applied a cooling lotion to the
thumb and finger that had Incautious
ly grasped the hot bottle, "but, after
all, It would be so much simpler to ? "
"Oh, I suppose you are going to pre
tend that you could get that Cork out
without even trying," Brown snarled.
"Well, let me s?*e you do It!"
"Why, of eourse If you wish me to,
dear," Mrs. Browh> responded sweetly.
She took a small But strong cord, tied
a large knot In the end, dropped the
knot Into the bottle, turned the bottle
upside down, and shook It a little un
til the cork Joggled down In tx> the
neck, the knot In the cord being be
hind the cork. Then she" gave the
cord a strong, steady pull, and the
cork came out with a plop! ? "It Is
really easy, you see, dear," she said
mildly.
France Likes Kipling.
Although Kudyard Kipling Is not
without honor In his own country, It
Is a fact that some young lions there
n (Tect to sneer at him, remarks the
London Post. Like (he Athenians,
(hey want something new.
Hut In France he is at the height of
his fame. Some fourteen volumes of
translations of his works have been
published by the Mercure de France.
A distinguished academician, M. Andre
Chevrlllan, has constituted himself his
chief Interpreter. Now a student Iff
I'nris, preparing for the Baccalaureate,
writes that he Is one of the authors

tional honor for a contemporary.
Know Little of Their City.
Many of the lifelong residents of
New York city know little of the city's
rapidly expanding transportation sys
tem. says tlie New York Sun. They
are acquainted with those minor sec
tions they use dally, hut if they have
oc<'h?bm to trove! to unaccustomed
quarters they are as puzzled ?s the
stranger. It Is usually the newcomer,
the resident of a few months or .years,
who even pretends to know the sub
ways or the street* of any consider
able section of the town.
American Progress.
American progress Is absolutely de
pendent upon electricity, according to
Henry D. Shute, vice president of the
Westinghouse Klectrlc company, who
de< larfs that "It Is no exaggeration to
aay that America hss m?w berome atv
volutely dependent upon electricity fr?r
her further progress, and 1 rt the fniure
hardly a wheel will turn without elec
tricity behind It."
