Her Goo4 Deeds Were Many, Her Heart Was Pure and Her Life - BeehtifuL In the death of Mrs. Rebecca E. Nicholson, which occurred at her home on South street last Thursday at noon. Union, has lost one of its inhabitants whose departure will be felt in every circle. Her life, devoted to high ideals and' her hands enlisted in good work, her death cannot but leave a vacancy tliqt will be felt by all. She was so kind and so patient and' so ready to aid the distressed that many hearts feel the loss sustained in her death. She was the widow of the late Wm. A. Nicholson, prominent and active in the affairs of the town and county. Mrs. Nicholson passed away peacefully at her home in this city at 12:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon after one month's illness, although she has been In declining health for two or three years. Mrs. Nicholson, who was Miss Rebecca E. Hobcraft before her marriage, was born in London, England, >n February 17, 1842, and came to . Charleston, S. C., about -1868 to visit relatives and it was while she was it the home of her sister, Mrs. James Allan, that she met Mr. Nicholson, to fcrbotfi she was married on April 21, I862f,' at Aiken, S. C., where she and tife'r sister ,4rfere refugeeing on account if the Federal troops bombanding Charleston. At that time Mr. Nichol ion was serving in the Macbeth Light Artillery, in which he had enlisted at the outbreak of the war, but soon after being injured by being thrown from a horse, was transferred to the lospital service in Columbia as aslistant to Dr. A. W. Thomson, who was surgeon in charge. It was on June 13, 1862, just about fifty years ago that Mrs. Nicholson :ame to Union, where her husband lad established himself in the marble msiness in 1859, and in point of resilence was one of the oldest persons in the city. During all her life she has seen interested and active in all reigious work, having connected herself with the Presbyterian church Sept. 22, 1863, which church she served as organist for over thirty years and was a Sunday School teacher for an even longer period of time. Until a few years ago she was president ?f the King's Daughters Circle and also was an active member of the Lftdies' Missionary Society. Though ' her health has prevented her in re:ent years from participation ' .ctively in church wdl-k, her interest in it lever waned and she continued to exercise a most helpful influence in all iepartments of church life, and has >een a frequent and liberal though inostentatious contributor to religous and benevolent causes in this and other states.

The funeral services were held on Friday afternoon at 6 o'clock at the First Presbyterian church, and were " quite simple and brief, consisting of >nly the hymns "Sun of My Soul, rhou Savior dear," "In the Secret of His Presence," sung as a duet by Mrs. R. A. Jones and Rev. W. D. Wakefield, ind "Saviour Again to Thy Dear Name," all of which were special favorites of Mrs. Nicholson, scripture reading and a short and sweet tribute to her earnest, Christian character by tier pastor, Rev. John F. Matheson. The interment was at the Presbyterian cemetery beside the remains of her husband ,and the services there were also brief, closing just as the Bun was sinking, with the beautiful hymn, "Abide with me, fast falls the eventide." TENNESSEE MOB LYNCHES NEGRO. Body Riddled With 100 Shots. Mob Outwits Officers. Nashville, May 27.?Jack Samuels, a negro, charged with criminally sssaulting Mrs. Walter Ramsey, a prominent farmer's wife, Saturday night, was taken from the officers this morning by a mob and riddled with ballets. Ramsey left a wife and two small children home alone Saturday night to go to Orlina for provisions. On the way he met Samuels? Knowing Mrs. Ramsey was alone, it is surmised that the negro went direct to the Ramsey home and attacked the woman. She was dragged from bed into the yard . When the negro fled she walked half a mile to give the alarm. Samuels was arrested and identification followed. The mob took the negro irom the officers this morning and carried him to a held and put 100 shots into his body. H < ^ ? s 111 ( I.O Dro rev Y 1*?

Only one time did Lockhart threaten to score, in the 4th inning Monarch made three straight errors and the boxes got full, the man on third got caught off the bag and Hames struck the other two out. In the first and second innings Hames struck out six men. The features of the game for Monarch were the splendid pitching of Hames, he holding Lockhart safe at all times, and when Lockhart got men on bases they couldn't get the bat that was needed to bring them home. He gave up only two hits during the game and struck out eleven men. Blair for Lockhart pitched a better game than the result shows, the kind of a game that will win the most of his games, but his support was rotten. He gave up six hits and struck out three men. A good many errors were made on both sides, on account of the ground being rather soft in places. Hewitt, of Monarch, made a pretty catch in left field.
