the sweet little girl of Mr. and
Mrs. J. J. Littlejohn, died last Friday
evening at eleven o'clock. ''Josephine
was the youngest child of her
parents and waB three vears old last
December. Young as she was, she
was very bright and intelligent and
had the mind and consideration of a
young lady. She was taken violently
ill at ten o'clock Friday morning
and died that evening. Drs. Chambers,
and Hames, of Jonesville; McElroy,
of Union and Steedley, of
Spartanburg, were all called to attend
her and they did all that medical
skill could suggest but to no
avail. The sweet little spirit must

said, "Suffer the little children to
come unto me and forbid them not,
for of such is the kingdom of heaven."
Mr. Little john was at Albany,
Ga., where he is engaged in farming
and a phone message and wire both
sent him, but he was out of town and
did not cret them until h? nnmo in
several hours afterwards and for
that reason did not reach home until
three o'clock Sunday morning when
he found his sweet little babe had
been dead twenty-four hours.

Josephine was a member of the
Methodist Sunday school and attended
the school on Sunday before she
was taken sicfc, and never did she
look more sweet and bright than she
did on that last Sunday morning, but
aoout tne same hour next Sunday
morning* her little form cold in
death was laid beneath the clods in
the family burying ground near Asburg
Chapel. The funeral services
were conducted by Rev. W. H. Ariail.

The race for police commissioner
attracted great interest as upon the
jutcome depended, to some extent,
:he future policy of the city police
iepartment. Under the present administration
the lid is on tight and
some of the candidates of the board
>f police commissioners were opposid
to the straightjacket.
W. T. Bull, a compromise candi
late, is elected on the first ballot. E.
E. Johnson, an uncommitted candiiate,
was also elected. A second race
'or the third commissioner to be
jlected will be run between C. F.
GJrandy and J. C. McCall, the latter
i firm advocate of the lid. The two
!iold over candidates of the board of
police commissioners have taken a
ending part in ridding Greenville of
the blind tiger element.
