Mr. Turner l>ie» of the Same I)i»ea»e at
IIIh Home in Welford.
Robert Russell Lipacomb, next to
the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs.
Nathan Lipscomb, died at the home
of his parents on Limestone Street on
Sunday the 2.‘>th inst., in the eigh
teenth year of his age, after an Illness
of only one week of pneumonia. His
illness was violent from the start and
little hopes were ever entertained for
his recovery.
Robert was a bright youth of great
decision of character, was a great
reader, devoted to his studies and in
all things had decided opinions of his
own and did whatever came to his
hand with all his might. The high
esteem in which he was held and the
great alTection of his school mates of
both sexes for him were evinced by
the gloom his death has cast over
them and the numerous contributions
of flowers presented by their loving
hearts and hands to he laid on his
grave.
This sad ailhction bears heavily on
the bereaved family whose tilial at
tachments have always been marked.
Rut in their sadness they have the
deepest sympathy of their many
friends.
The funeral services were held in
the Presbyterian church yesterday
at 2 o’clock p. m., and were con
ducted by Rev. F. C. Hickson as
sisted by Rev. \V. H. Hodges and
Rev. B. 1*. Robeitson. After which
the remains were carried to Lime
stone cemetery and buried in the
family lot in the presence of a large
assemblage of relatives and friends.

Governor McSweeny has appointed
Maj. John F. Jones, of Blacksburg, a
delegate to the International Mining
Congress to be held at Milwaukee,
VVis., in June.
Gov. McSweeney has done many
sensible things during his adminis
tration and in the appointment of
Maj. Jones he is eminently correct.
Maj. Jones is a man of large informa
tion, has in his business been inti
mately associated with the minerals
of this section, which are probably
the most extensive of any other part
of the State, and is one of the most
public spirited men in the State. In |
him South Carolina will have an i
able representative in the Congress |
and Cherokee fully appreciates her j
honor in furnishing the Stat^ a dele
gate so worthy and competent.

Slory of ii Slave.
To be bound hand and foot
years by the chains of disease is the
worst form of slavery. George D.
Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells
how T such a slave was made free. He
says: “My wife has been so helpless
for live years that she could not turn
over in the bed alone. After using
two bottles of Electric Bitters, she
is wonderfully improved and able to
do her own work.” This supreme
remedy for female diseases quickly
cures nervousness, sleeplessness,
melancholy, headache, backache,
fainting and dizzy spells. This mira
cle working medicine is a godsend to
weak, sickly, run down people, j
