We replied: "Yes, but do not know what it means." He then said: "Do you notice a larger number of insects this summer than usual?" To his an affirmative reply was given. "Well," said the visitor, "those guns are fired at bats. With the killing of the bats, comes the multiplication of insects." lES ShmSHBRI bv Death of Mrs. P. 1$ Faut.' On Saturday morning, August 22, Mrs. P. E. Fant died at ber home iu Union. She had been desperately sick for two or three months .and her lovul oues had been looking for the end for some time.. Every effort that mortal could put forth was exercised in her behalf. The best of medical skill, careful nursing and the tenderesc care were giveu her, but to no avail. Death came to ber relief, and her soul left the house of clay. The crumbling walls of the earthly house fell apart and her spirit entered the paradise of God. Mrs Fant was a good woman. Iler life was an open book, the pages of which were clean aud beautiful. Her Saviour was magnified iu her daily life, She spoke < the language of Canaan. By her quiet, unasssuming life, a life tilled with good deeds and kind words, she drew to herself a large circle of true friends. She ; was little given to "fashionable society." Her home aud the heart of her friends ' was as large a field its she clioee to occupy. This field she tilled to its full. A woman of the world, gay, fashionable, frivolous, dies: her friends raise their hands and utter an exclamation. The gap closes up and the world moves on. She is forgotten long before the grass grows upon her grave. Not so with a woman like Mrs. Fant. She tcok dtep root in the heart of loved ones and friends. Her departure leaves bleeding i heai ts and weeping eyes. Such a life silences the tongues of critics v. ho pick ( (laws in Christians and churches. Such | r life inspires the weak with courage and leads the erring back into the way. Mrs. Fact was a member of Grace J Methodist Church, and was a teacher in , the Sunday school. Iler ho ly was laid I away in the cemetery there. A large 1 gathering of friends met at her residence Sunday morning at 11 o'clock, and Rev. , T. E. Morris conducted a short service, I after which the body was carried to tl.e grave, arid placed in its resting place. Let ao one say, "Poor woman, she is de; d." ( "She is not dead, but sleepeth." She Is ? rich b yond the dream of mortal, for her 1 pirit has found the fulness of joy. May \ those who mourn be cornfoited. May s the gontle life of this godly woman lead ! ivery one of theai into the Way of the f Nazarine. i Puts an Etui To It A11.

Whisenant, and located on South Church street, next door to the one he occupies himself. The fire is thought to have been the work of incendaries and there are several clews that may lead to the discovery of the guilty party Suicide Prevented. The startling announcement that a preventive of suicide had been found will interest many. A run down system, or despondency, invariably pre- ' cedes suicide and something has been found that will prevent that condition which makes suicide likely. .At the first thought of self-destruction take Electric Bitters.

G, Trefzer Crushed To Death In the Freight Yards In Atlanta. The sail news of the death of Mr. J. G. Trefzer, was wired to Mr. F. G. Frelzer, his brother, the j-jweler here iu Union, Monday eaily in the afternoon. Mr. F. G. Trefzer and wife left on the (list train for Atlanta to bring the remains of the deceased to Union for interment. The following account of the tragedy is from the Atlanta Journal: J. G. Trefzer, a fireman on the \V. and A. road, who tioarded at .*12 Chapel street, was this afternoon shortly after 1'2 o'clock crushed to death between Engine No. 154 and a coal car. The accident occurred about 50 yards north of the W. and A. shops. Engiue No. 104 had just taken on a load of coal and was moving north preparatory to hitching on to 12:30 freight for Cbattanoogo when Trefzer met his death. lie was standiug in the gangway between the tender and the engine proper, leaning out, it seems, to see if tho engine could pass the coal cais ahead. The space between the engine and the coal cars was very small at this point and in some way Trefzer was caught by a projecting post on a coal car and pulled m between the boiler lank and tho car. With a cry of pain he was crushed to almost instant death and hurled to the ground before Engineer W. A. Woolbright could realize what was happening. Trefzer was barely alive when reached and died before he could be re moved to the round house, lie never regained consciousness. His head was badly -crushed and fatal injuries were received in the chest. The bod\ was this afternoon removed to 32 Chapel ni?i, ??ih.-iw me iunerai seivice3 will probably occur. Trefzer was about 3D years old ami a (ietuian by birth, lie bad no relatives liere but left one brother who resides in Union, S. C. Trefz,:r was a M ison and Ixdouged also to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. lie had been in the miiploy of the Western and Atlantic road for about two years. Previous to Lhis time he was a llremaa on the Seaboard Air Lino. The brother of the dead man has been aotifed of his death and the funeral arrangements will not be made until he is >eard l'rom.
