Those things are known only to women, and the aid a man would give is not at his command.

Columbia, April 11.?The "lieau Sabreur" of the Confed eracy is no more. The grand old oak that has weathered many a storm has fallen at last. General Wade Hampton died this morning at 9 o'clock. No sudden stroke felled hi?j\. Ilis iron constitution .Jk succumbed at last to such a series of strains as few men were ever called upon to endure; as no man ever sustained with more splendid fortitude or more unfaltering heart. The soldier who told his men when he led them forth that he would never order them to go where he would not go at their head, the most, notable figure of the Confederacy, breathed his last at his home in this city. The general's health has been steadily failing for some months. His last public appearance was in Charleston at the reunion of the South Carolina college alumni in December last, when he made two brilliant speeches. The general's deatlf has been expected fnr cnrnr il /luvo Kut ??"? ? j uv v vi ill uuj '7HI U3 IILM J ^ thought to ho so near. When the announcement of (loath was made this morning, the state llag was immediately) *V run to half mast on the capitol building and the building draped in black streamers. The city hall displayed llags at half mast from each of the towers! and the big city bell was solemn-1 ly tolled for halt an hour. This afternoon the Conlederate monument on the capital square will bo draped in mourning. One tribute today is the placing of the flag on the United Stages government building at half mast 1 by order ot the secretaiy ol tliOj treasury in honor cf General Hampton as a United States senator. General Hampton has 1 'jn conscious otily at tirr><!? dcr the past 21 hours. Lust night he had a long talk with his i t expressing many o> hi's t last ' wishes. .

When it came, his daughter, his two sons and their wives, his sisters, his nephew and niece, Col. John C. llaskell and Dr.B W. Taylor were at his bedside. Ho died as if quietly falling asleep, having been unconscious for sometime before the end. It is a coincidence worthy ol mention that General Hampton died on the anniversary of the day that Chamberlain turned the slatehouse over to him upon the reclamation of the state from radical rule, ending the dark days of reconstruction. Wade Hampton was the most listinguishen man South Carolina has produced during the last cen tury. He was prominent as a warrior, statesman and citizen, and the people of the entire south loved him. It was only about a year ago at the Confederate reunion that the old soldiers marched in a body to his home and gave him one of tho grandest ovations over given any man. Ho took occasion in his remarks on that occasion to bid them a last farewell. He recently celebrated his S4th birthday, and on that day was able to go out with his son for a drive. Up to the last he retained his mental acumen and his interest in public affairs never flagged. It was only about ten days ago that he spoke fittingly of tho invitation to President Koosevelt to South Carolina. lllNinar<>l4*N Irun Xcrro Was the result of his splendid health.

Persons who attended the funeral obsequies of John C. Calhoun, for which preparations were made by the state for a week, declare the demonstrations this afternoon when the body of Wade Hampton was buried in the family lot in Trinity church yard wa? greater and an effort was made by the family to have this a quiet fu neral. The outpouring was spontaneous. The railroads leading hero were forced to run special trains. Veterans, sons and daughters, military and municipal officers came from every county in I lie ptate. There were rep resenativo people; the most honored men and women in South Carolina were here. During the short time today the public was p.remitted to the Hampton house, several thousand people, including a ureal many negroes, passed l>y the eollin. The procession included all the organization, about S00 militia, and delegations from schools and colleges. All marched in double rank ami chose order and the lino was a milo and a half long. All were on lout except General Hampton's family. The procession moved to the church, a little over a half a milo distant, between rows of people. Some of the houses on the way had Conlederate ling* draped in mourmni?.

Among the survivors was a body of the men who first went to the war with Hampton? members of the Hampton Legion. They carried shot-torn flags. As was to have been expected, where old veterans saw for the last time, a man so honored and well beloved as Hampton, there were many tears shed today. IAtt'e Jewels. Every mother that has a child has a jewel more precious to her and worth more than the King of England's entire collect ion of d i a moods, etc. Pity the little one that is rapidly losing its health because its mother does not know it has worms, and that a 25 cent bottle of Mother's Worm Syrup will expel them quickly. (JEN. HAMPTON'S FAREWELL |To His Soldiers From His Piazza Last May. My domrades : I have indeed, as Major Ilart lias said, heard that Rebel yell often before, and when 1 heard it lrom my own men, from Ihe men whom I had the honor to command, I knew that we were safe. I think it is one of the Biitish poets who said : "The kites know well The long league's swell That bids the Romans close." I might paraphrase this by saying : The Yanks knew well, The Rebel yell That bade the Johnnies close. I My old heroes, I hope it never J will be forgotten. I hope it will be transmitted to your children and to your children's children? if not for them to use to tell how it used to ling from tho forests of Virginia, how it rang trom Gettysburg to the west, and how it always told of men who were willing to die for their southland, to die for truth, for honor, for manhood, for chivalry and lor a great, truth. 1 want, you to try and teach to your children and to your children's children that ours was not a lost cause. I want you to tell them that we were fighting for the right. George Washington was a rebel, but Lee was not. When Great Britain recog nized the independence of this country she did not recognize the independence of the UnitedStates, but of each sovereign state as independent and sovereign. There were 13 independent and sovereign states. They founded this I union and they had the right to withdraw from it whenever thnv - - - ? ! chose to do so. We were not successful?it is not given to I mortals to command success. You ihave done more?vou have de| served it. And nostr in your declining years and when mine have ex ! tended long beyond tho period I allotted to man, mv old comrades, j whom 1 loved, whom I trusted |aud with whom 1 felt as sale as 1 1 do now, i want to say to you all that all thu love you have given me has been more than reciprocated ; that n'l that I have ever I been able to do for you, for any I one of you, or for South Carolina, j has been more than repaid by the i honors you have unsolicited con| ferred upon mo and by this the | crowning honor of my life. 1 j may not see you again.

(Applause). 1 claim no credit for that. Every South Carolinian who was true was willing to give his blood and his life tor the old state. I am sure that I was willing to do so. 1 think 1 can say so to you, my men, that I never turned my back upon any oi you wlien your laces were turned toward the enemy. The greatest lienor that I felt, during the war was once when I came upon a poor private who was dying. I stopped beside him and he said: "I am happy to die fighting and 1 am proud to die fighting under you." I pray God will bless you and will give you peace and property, gi/e it to the old State, give it to each one of you and that you will go home auu tell your kiiiureu that vou have seen vour old comrade and that he thanks them through you.
