Tiie Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, May 21,1902. A Hatchery at Orangeburg. Has the Very Place for Fish Culture Station. Special to The State. Washington, May 16 ?Orangeburg is already martialling her forces to land the new fish cultural station provided for in Senator Tillman's bill which has passed the senate and will very probably pass the house this sessisn. The bill carries an appropriation of $25,000 for this purpose, but leaves the selection of a site to the fish commission. Representative Lever has placed on file with the commissioners a petition signed by the mayor and leading citizens of Orangeburg setting forth the claims of that town for the new station and asking that a special agent be sent there to go over the ground aDd report to the commission before a site is determined upon, in case Senator Tillman's bill becomes a law. Representative Lever saw Commissioner s Bowers today and was assured that Oraageburg's claims would have careful consideration and that the sug> gestion of an agent to investigate the topography of that section would probably be adopted. Jt seems that in looking around for a suitable site for such a station ^ special inquiry is made as to the abundance' o? the water supply. Wherever it is possible, a site is ^elected upon a hill from which flows a number of clear wate? streams. It is necessary that these streams be free from refuse and so located as to permit the establishing upon them the numerous ponds connected with th8 station. Representative Lever is of the opinion that a location admirably Ailing these requirements is to be found just outside the town of Orangeburg on what is known as "Duke's flshery." In talking today with Commissioner Bowers he out v lined the advantage of locating a fish station here and filed with him numerous papers and maps showing the topography of the country. Representative Lever said today that he considers Orangeburg's chaDces admirable for securing the fish station and if an agent is sent down by the commission to look the ground over he hopes to accompany him and assist in showing him around. The establishment of a $25,000 fish station in the State means much for South Carolina and while Orangeburg would benefit especially by having it placed there the entire State will enjoy its advantages.

Dallas, Texas, May 14 ?Governor Davis of Arkansas is still in the humor of sending all pardoned negro criminals of the South to New England, where he declares they belong. A Dallas lawyer today received the following letter from the Arkansas Governor: Mr. Jay M. Overstreet, Daliae, Tex; Dear Si# and Friend: I am in receipt of your favor and appreciate its ? a it;_ contents. 1 conceived mis men on my recent trip east, from the many expressions of spmpathy that I heard by the people of that sectioD, none of whom knew what they were talking about, and I resolved to give them a little taste of their own medicine so that in the future they could handle subjects in cr. ?rete form instead of obtaining iniormation through newspapers. I therefore thought it wise to put the negro in their midst so that they could study him as he is, , I I mill I I Over=Work Weakens Your Kidneys. Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. fThe kidneys are your blood purifiers, they.filter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheumatism come from excess of uric acid in the i WIWWU, UUV^ IV kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidneypoisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their beginning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's | Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its j wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits pT. by all druggists in fiftycent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a Sample DOttlC by mail Home of Swamp-Root. free, also pamphlet telling you how to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble. Mention this paper when writing Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. and not from anything they had heard about him. I see the eastern papers are waxing warm over the matter, even going to the extent of saying that the negro is more preferable there than the Southern white man. I desire to say that I am goiDg to send as many to them as possible and hope the other Southern States will join me in this enterprise. ? . Like a Drowned Man. "Five years ago a disease the doc tors called dyspepsia took such hold of me that I could scarcely go," rorlfoo Oen S "Mftrnlv wpll-Vnown attorney of Nocona, Tex. "I took quantities of pepsin and other medicines but nothing helped me. As a drowning man grabs at a straw I grabbed at Kodol. I felt an improvement at once and after a few bottles am sound and well." Kodol is the only preparation which exactly reproduces the natural digestive juices and consequently is the only one which digests any good food and cures any form of stomach trouble. J. E. Kaufmann.

News was received here yesterday of the death ofJOol. Andrew P. Butler, at his home near Augusta, of paralysis of the heart. Col. "Pick" Butler was a gallant Confederate soldier and afterwards rendered conspscious services to his state during the days of 1876. He was commissioner of agriculture for several years, but on account of bis opposition to Tillman the office was abolished in 1800. Colonel Butler was seventy years of age and leaves two daughters and several grandchildren. A Successful Candidate. A young man living over a mile from here, addressed a marriage proposal to his adored one as follows: "My Dear Miss I hereby announce myself as a candidate for your band and shall use all fair and honorable means to secure the nomination. I know there ire many candidates in the field, and I hesitated long before entering the race, but I am in to stay. My views on matrimony have often been expressed in your bearing, and I need not repeat them here. You know I favor the free coinage of love?and maintenance of free silver after marriage. If you decide to confer upon me the honor I seek, fix date of caucus with vour mother. I have no objection to her aetiDg as temporary chairman of the present organization. If the result of the caucus should prove satisfactory, we can soon hold the primary and select a date for the convention. I have never believed in long campaigns, so if you decide to honor me I will ask you to make the convention date as early as possible. Devotedly yours, " He received the following brief reply: ''Caucus unnecessary. Report on permanent organization satisfactory nomination unanimous; come at once and fix date of ratification. Yours for success, ?? 2?o Loss of Time. I have sold Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for yearp, and would rather be out of coffee and sugar than it.

Eddy Says Volcanic Dust Will Circle the Earth in Ten Days. New York, May 16.?William A. Eddy, the Bayonne meteorologist, says that as a result of the volcanic disturbances in the West Indies a red haze should be seen here at sunset about Decoration Day. Mr. Eddy estimates that millions of tons of fine volcanic duet from Martinique and St. Vincent will be carried around the world in ten davs at the rate of ~ 100 miles an hour aDd should reach here by way of San Francisco about the end of the month. The red haze, Mr. Eddy says, will be visible only when the skies are clear. * - * When the Worm Turns. All that the newspapers have to do is to put the "snuffers" on the candidates and simply leave out all mention of the candidate?, their meetings, their speeches and everything connected with their campaign from beginning to end. If the newspapers will only have the nerve to hold out they have already won their fight and perhaps net this year, but next year, they can double the price of the cards and the candidates will be glad to pay it. The unknown and new candidates are the ones who will be handicapped and iDjared by not publishing their cards aDd getting before the public with their announcements and their speeches, and it is evident that some folks know a thing or two about politics. In several of the counties it is manifest that the people are getting very tired of the county campaigns, and in Horry and other counties propositions were made to have one campaign meeting at the Court House and abandon all others ?A. K , in The News and Courier. Hints to Farmers. Do not stop work on account of dry weather. If your corn is up run round it, replant, thin and hoe. Get back to it as quick as possible and put more furrows to the row. If you have a stand of cotton plow and hoe at once. Put to a stand and pull a little dirt to it with a hoe. Do not leave it on top of the ridge with long stems above ground for a bard dash of rain would beat it down. Cultivate the corn rapidly. Plant peas between the hill June 1 to 20; or if you have plenty cf seed sow broadcast when you lay by. But three peas to the hill will cover the land with vines and give a fine crop of mature peas if the fall rain suits. Tin not nlant or sow neas when there ? r ? i. is only moisture enough to swell them without bringing them up. When a pea swells it will die very soon if there is not moisture enough to bring it up.
