The Remalr% of the Great church*
man Laid to ReeL
Spartanburg, March 0.—The fur*
neral of Bishop W. W. Duncan yes
terday afternoon was one of the most
solemn and impressive ever held in
Spartanburg. Central church was
filled to overflowing long before the
appointed hour, and the street in
front was thronged with all manner
of conveyances. The furneral ser
mon was preached by Dr. J. C. Kilgo,
president of Trinity College. The
great pulpit orator paid eloquent tri
bute to the memory of the beloved
hi.’hop, and when he had finished
Bishop Warren Candler spoke feel
ingly of the life and works of the de
ceased. Immediately after the ser
vices at the church the remains were
taken to Oakwood cemetery and laid
to rest beside the grandchildren of
the great churchman. The funeral
was attended by many distinguished
church officials, among them, Bishop
E. E. Hoss, of Tennessee; Bishop At
kins, of North Carolina, and Bishop
Warren A. Candler, of Georgia. Be
sides these there were quite a num
ber of prominent Methodist ministers
from all parts of the State.
The church was appropriately dec
orated with flowers tor the occasion;
white lillies, roses, carnations, Jon-
quilis—the choicest offerings of spring
—the dearest emblems of the resur
rection and life eternal. The altar
railing was transgformed into a hank
of white roses and carnations. And be
hind this flowery bank there rose an
arched gateway with the gates ajar.
The arch was built of sweet pea bios-
somsand jonquills. The steps to
the entrance of the gateway was
built of violets. Around the pulpit
railing were ferns and palms, a splen
did background tor the beautiful
white flower banks around the altar
railing.
The seats immediately in fghnt of
the pulpit were reserved tor the mem
bers of the bereaved family; those to
the left for the pallbearers and spe
cial friends; those to the right in
front for the ministers. The right of
the pulpit was reserved for the color
ed ministers.
Among the ministers sat: Revs.
Shell, Magruder, Stafford, Smith, Dr.
Law, Nettles, Melton of the city;
Revs.. Massabeau of Greenville; Kel
ler, of Union; Harley, of Greenville;
Herbert, of Columbia; Anderson, of
Graycourt; Harper, of Gaffney.
An Election Muddle.
At the recent primary election for
town officers, W. L. Settlemyer and
D. J. Holt were candidates from
Ward 1. When the votes were count
ed Holt had twenty-nine and Settle
myer twelve. Settlemyer made the
point before the city executive com
mittee that Holt had failed to sign
the pledge within the time provided
by the rules of the party, and ther^
fore was not the nominee. In this
contention he was sustained by the
committee. Holt appealed from this
decision and the supreme court re
versed the ruling of the city execu
tive committee and declared that
Holt was nominated. At the general
election last Tuesday SettlemyeFs
friends voted tor him anyway with
the result that Settlemyer received
sixty-two votes and Holt seventeen.
The matter will have to be. decided
by the city council as to w^ich can
didate shall serve.

will be thrashed out in the courts
