The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, August 13,1902. PENCIL AND SCISSORS. Wayside Notes Gathered Here and There by a Dispatch Man. Not every time a girl i8 a dressmaker. Pulling fodder is now the order of the day. The average belle eDjoys ringing in the boys. Two pigs for fattening, wanted, at this office. Man is made out of dust and tbats what most of them are out for. Not even the blind factory offers employment to the sightless. Mrs. C. B. Harman, of Augusta, Ga., are visiting relatives in town Mr. Will Bawl, the Batesburg grocer, is in town tah;ng in the reunion. Has the effort to put an iron fer around St. Stephen cemetery gone dead? This is the kind of weather that makes one wish for a residence at the North Pole. Miss Bessie Barnetfc, of tne ? or?, has also been awarded a scholarship in Winfchrop. Mr. Simon Redmond unfortunately ie here in jail on his way back to the asylum. Hand your subscription, part if not ail, to the Dispatch man on the campaign rounds. The old soldiers have captured the town bag and baggage, lock, stock and barrel. A fine lot of chocolate creams, bon bone, and fine mixed candies, just ... received fresh, at the Bazaar. From next Monday morning it will be just three weeks till the opening of the Palmetto Collegiate Institute. The grand army of rib pullers and nntton ehoDDera are marching on go- I - ITJC w ing from one barbecue unto another. The first primary will be beid on the 26th. See that your name is on your club roil at least five days before that date. v John Bell Towill, the bachelor editor of the Advocate, got the bou\ # quetB at Batesburg, but we got the peaches. Some repairs are to be made on the Institute building between now and the opening. This is a step in the right direction. The survey of the route of the electric railway commenced last Monday. A Mr. Screven, of Columbia, is the engineer in charge. The principal will be pleased to mail m nice 28 page catalogue of the Palmetto Collegate Institute to interested parents. Every Democrat in the county should see that his name is enrolled oa his club list. This is important and should be attended to at once. It really seems that Charlie Jeffeoat has evaded the law officers and succeeded in making good his escape, as nothing has been heard from him in sometime. Mr. Eibert Herman, the bright and promising seventeen-year-old son of Editor E. H. Aull, of the Newberry Herald and News, died of typhoid fever last week. Candidates and others can have tickets, cards, circulars or other Job work can have their wants supplied ~ ft f f A "Hio uy leaving tueu. uiucio au vuo A/IDpatch Job Printing office. If you wish to vote in tbe primary see that your name is on the club roll at least five days before August 26th. This is important and should be attended to at once. Mr. Benjamin F. Harman and sister, Miss Zula, from near this place, have returned from a pleasant and very enjoyable visit to relatives and friends, in the Swansea settlement. My summer line of clothing and shoes must go to make room for my fall stock. If you want these goods at cost, call on C. E. Corley, at Lexington Depot. 40 Capt. Henry Spann, our efficient County Chairman, was on band to see that all of the rules of the party had been complied with and that everything moved off smoothly. Miss Aline Mathis and h6r sister, Mrs. Dent, of Augusta, are visiting Misses Mattie and Beulah George. We are requested by the principal, Prof. S. J. Derrick, to say that a cordial invitation is extended to all the trustees of the various public schools to attend the sessions of the summer school and see the teachers at work. Mr. S. Luther Smith, of the Fork, has been quite ill during the past week. His daughter, Mrs. J. J. Bickley, of this plase was called to his bedside. His many friends will be pleased to learn that his condition is reported to be much improv ed. Mr. and Mrs. Newell Lee and children, on returning from a visit to the old homestead of the former in Virginia, stopped over for a few days, visiting the parents of Mrs. Lee, Col. and Mrs. M. D. Harman, in town, before going to their new home in Florida. J. H. Frick, Esq, Attorney at Law, 'Room 4, second floor, Hotel Marion, Chapin, S. C., offers his professional serviees to the people of Lexington and adjoining counties. He was admitted to the Bar in 1900 and enjoys a good practice. Business entrusted to him will be given prompt and careful attention. The prisoners confined in the county jail made an unsuccessful to r^ior thpmRelvfts nnfc last Wednesday. The prisoners, of whom there are three, were unusually noisy singing and makiDg other loud demonstrations, so much so as to excite the suspicion cf the sheriff that something was wrong, and an investigation revealed the fact that the negroes had made a large hole in the cemented floor and hid the debris under a pile of blankets. Attention is directed to the advertisement of J. H. Berry, the popular sewing machine dealer of Columbia. Here you will find the Light Running New Home, the famous Wheeler & Wilson No. 9, sewing machine ~ i-i.- -i -r _n J! aimcumtmis ui tin juliub, jjccuicd and other things too numerous to mention. Bead his advertisement, and when in need of anything in his line call on or address him at 1804 Main street. There seems to be some confusion in the relationship of candidate E. U. Shealy for the House and Samuel F. Shealy candidate for County Commissioner, both residing in the Fork. The impression seems to be that they are father and Bon. This is not the case and we have been requested to say that Samuel D. Shealy is the father of E. U., and resides at White Bock, and Bobert Shealy is the father of Samuel F, and resides at Ballentine.

He said members ought not flitter away so much of the early part of the sessions, but go to work and they would not be compelled to stay the forty day limit. The above is about the burden of their song, fairly stated with no desire to misquote or misrepresent any of them. A Card. To the Editor of tne JJispatcn: I desire to say to the voters and my friends in Batesburg and Leesville that I am very sorry that I could not be with and talk to them on the occasion of their campaign meeting, but the illness and death of my little grandson prevented me from being present.
