IClertru 1 taker I.ittle 1’anneH Away at Her Home .Sunday Morning Funeral ServleeH Conducted at the First ItapUst Chureh—Interment at Oakland. Life and death are complementary and inseparable. Tbe work of the Builder and the work of the De stroyer progress side by side. The funeral cortege treads close upon the steps of the bridal party, and mourn ing chases mirth as the shadows of night chase the fleeting sunbeams. Again we must face the inevitable; again the solemn hearse robed in its black drapery rolls slowly along our streets; again the nigh( of death has Hung its grim shadows over another happy home; again a solemn crowd assembles in Oakland, and another mound is raised in the city of the dead. These reflections are called forth by the death of Mrs. Electra Baker Little, which occurred at her home Sunday morning about 7 o’clock, the cause being typhoid fever. She had been sick about two weeks and for several days preceding her death she was desperately ill, and the members of her immediate family and the watchers by her bedside watched her with bated breath and trembling lips, scarcely daring to hope for her re covery; so when the end came Sun day morning it was not entirely un expected. Death is sad at all times and in any form, but it seems doubly so when it takes the young mother from her doting children, and when it ri- moves from a happy home one upon whom were lavished in endless pro fusion the affections of fond and lov ing parents and the sweetest love of brothers and sisters, leaving an ach ing void in their hearts which noth ing can till, and a gloom over the home which the sunshine of years cannot dispel. Mrs.‘Little was thirty-two yeais of age —just in the noonday of life, and her entire life had begun in the place where it ended. 8ho was a devout member of the Baptist church for a number of years, and died ip full hope of Iter reward beyond the dark and silent river where all is peace, and joy, and love. The highest trib ute that our Lord could pay to his mother was to call her “woman;" and. in a like manner, we may speak of Mrs. Littfe. She was too well known here to need any comments upon her personal characteristics, and wo feel that we pay the highest tribute to her memory when we say that she was a woman in the truest sense of t|;o word—“pure as the prayer that oi.ildhood wafts above,” and true us the star* above to the noblest instincts of human nature, and the highest principles of truth and right ami justice. The funeral ceremonies were con ducted in the new Baptist church by Rev. B. P. Robertson, assisted by Revs. C. K. Robertson and W. H. Hodye^, ThP body was interred at Oakt'and ceipetery in tiio presence of the sorrowing members of the family and the host of weeping friends who had assembled to pay their last sad, hut loving tribute to tli3 one they loved so well in life. 'j’jiP nail bearers were: W. W. Gaffney' ii. L. Spears, T. H. Little john, F. 6. IsLcy amj W. ft. To the bereaved family we extend our sincekeet h»d warmest sympa thies, yet we know how weak gnfj in effectual is all human consolation. A higher than human power can alone console and support them un der this heavy stroke which has de prived them of a gentle and loving daughter and a fond and doting mother. feliii'tl i., I, >n»iii The Houthbound vestibule on the Southern railroad, which passes here at 10:58 a. m., ran over and killed a colored man lust Friday at the junc tion just below Spartanburg. It was the same old story of trying to cross the track in front of a moving train, and this man paid the penalty of his rash act by being crushed to death beneath the wheels of the locomotive. Some of the passengers testified the whistle sounded a warning and that the negro had plenty of time to get out of the way ; but he seemed to be confused and instead of getting out of the danger he stepped into it. So man’s time is so precious or his businesH so urgent that he cannot wait even a minute for a train to go by, and it is astonishing that people will take such ritks after so many have lost their lives in just such a manner us plated above.

MUh Kllit ItuxeliorouKli Killeil In Suving it »Kr<> CliUd. The following was taken frotn the Scranton (Fa.) Republican of tbe 15Rh inst: Miss Roseborough, 17 years old, was killed by a train on the Southern road at Blacksburg just as she had saved the life of a little negro child. Miss Roseborough lives in Chester, S. C., but was visiting at Blacksburg. She saw a little colored child that nad toddled from its home a hundred yards away playing, and around a nearby curve came the Southern ves tibule train. The girl sprang to the rescue, run ning toward the train. The engine was but a few yards away, fire flying from every wheel under the grinding press ure of air brakes, she snatched the child from danger but could not save herself. |The place where the above tragic scene was enacted and where the he roic young lady sacrificed her life for that of another, was at Lewis Station, on the Charlotte, Columbia «fc Augusta railroad, and not at Blacksburg, as has been stated in several accounts of the sad accident. Had it been at Blacksburg The Ledger would have published a full and complete account of it long ago; but as it occurred so fur away, we did no more than make casual men tion of the occurrence. The work of erecting a monument to the memory of Miss Roseborough has been begun, and such a heroic deed and such a noble and self-sacri ficing spirit that prompted it deserves to be honored in so appropriate a manner.—Ei>.] ri?r it rsiKi Women suffer ing from female troubles and weakness, and from irregular or painful men ses, ought not to lose hope if doctors cannot help them. Phy sicians are so busy with other diseases that they do not un derstand fully the peculiar ail ments and the delicate organism of woman. What the sufferer ought to do is to give a fair trial to BRADFIELD’S Female Regulator which is the true cure provided by Nature for all female troubles. It is the formula of a physician of the highest standing, who devoted his whole life to the study of the dis tinct ailments peculiar to our moth ers, wives and daughters. It is made of soothing, healing, strengthening herbs and vegetables, which have, 1'jeen provided by a Kindly Nature to cure Irregularity in the menses, Leu- corriuea, Falling of the Womb, Nerv ousness, Headache and Backache. In fairness to herself and to Brad* Meld’s Female Regulator, every suffering woman ought to give it a trial. A large $i bottle will do a wonderful amount of good.
