At the commencement this year he was complimented by being invited to deliver the annual address before the alumni society, and that was his mission there on this occasion. The address is highly spoken of by the press of that State for its deep research and scholarly compositionWhat the Auditor's Book Show, Auditor Harman has completed the tax books for the next collection of taxes, and the returns show a decrease of $244,000 below last year's returns in the whole county, which leaves a tax deficit of $2,800 in round numbers. The present decrease is about the same before the State Board increased the real estate valuation 15 per cent, four years ago, and this will also necessitate another increase in the valuation of property. The ex penses of running the State and county governments must be raised somehow?either by an increase of the tax levy or an increase in me valuation of all property. This year they will have to be raised by the increase in valuation and the tn~ payer might as will prepare himself for the raise which must come. By All Means Bo So. When you visit Columbia yon should be all means visit the hardware establishment of Stewart & j Prentiss, where you will find a hand- j some line of useful articles iu the j way of tin and Japanned ware, house and kitchen articles, plows, harness, paints, oils, and in fact anything foun<^in an up to date hardware store. Their prices are extremely moderate when quality and quantity are considered. No goods are misrepresented and satisfaction is guaranteed. If you have never bought goods from them you should do so at once, and you will be so well pleased that you will become a permanent customer. Nsw Lodg9 Instituted. Columbia Register.

We gratefully appreciate the kind words Rev. A. R. Phillips wrote about the Dispatch, iu remittiug his contribution toward the purchase of ' sugar and shortening for blackberry pies.'' An Editor's life is a hard one. To him fall all the (urses and abuses and there seldom flashes across his dark pathway the light of kind words and when they do they are appreciated. The human machine starts but once and stops but once. You can keep it going longest and most regularly by using DeWitt's Little Early Risers, the famous little pills for constipaliou and all stomach and liver troubles. J. E. Kaufmann. About half of the secret of success in life is to know where to purchase necessary goods at the lowest prices, and in order to inform our readers where that place is, so that they can attain unto that success, we take pleasure in saying that no firm sells family and plantation supplies cheaper than does Piatt, Hook & Shull,Columbia.

For years the ladies of this congre- c; gation have been faithfully laboring j, to build a new edifice in which to worship, the old one being totally unsuited for such purposes. Through ^ many vissitudes and disappointments 0 they succeeded in raising the stone walls of the new church when their ^ funds became exhausted. The ^ destruction of the old building by fire, makes the completion of the I new one an absolute necessity and to 1 raise the necessary funds, the ladies h are bending every energy and ex- v haustiog every means at their command.

ITS Paragraphically Told for ths Benefit cf Eusy Readers. Manila is reported to have capitulated. Dewey has forbidden the insurgents to bombard Manila. The people of the town of Caimaiiera propose to sack, burn and then jvacuate it. The Ameiiean officers speak highly )f the efficiency and bravery of the Hubau soldiers. Spain is 9aid to be making desperite efforts to the powers to interfere tnd stop the war. The sea coast in the vicinity of luantanamo is dotted with the >right hued Cuban flag. This government is impressing hips to transport supplies, ammuniion and troops to Manila. It is reported that distress and tarvation is everywhere prevalent on he unhappy island of Cuba. iiorse, mule aua aog meac are j cmo of the delicacies which the Spaniards on Cuba are now enjoying. A Spanish volunteer is said to have hot Blanco in the leg to avenge the leath of his brother at the Captain jeneral's hands. The Cuban forces under General larcia have arrived on the coast near lautiago and has communicated with he American fleet. The American marines off Santiago ,re becoming restles over the 11011rrival of the troops which are re>orted to have left Tampa last week. The general landing of the troops >f General Shatter's expedition on he coast of the province of Santiago le Cuba will necessarily be delayed everal days. It has now been about two months ince war was declared, and with he exception of the naval engageoeat at Manila, no important battle ias been fought, although a great leal of important preliminary work ias been accomplished. From the accuracy of the Spanish urs during the last bombardment f Santiago it is thought by the Lmerican naval officers that other han Spaniard gunners are directing he shots. The private Secretary of General j^e was killed by lightning, at lampa, Fla , la9t week while in bat ling. A friend who was with him ^as killed by the same bolt. Garcia, the insurgent chief, has ssued an address to the American eoplp, in which he said that he ras greatly obliged to them for heir efforts in securing the indeendence of Cuba. It is learned from officers here bat Captain General Blanco Las otified the American blockading eet that he will hereafter recognize o flag of truce, adding that every essel within six miles range will be red upon whether flying the stars nd stripes or a white flag. The British steamer Ethewold rrived at Port Antonio and reported assing Sunday evening, near Cape laysi, the extreme eastern point of )uba, an American gunboat, an uxiliary cruiser, two transports and schooner in tow. Later she passed nother steamer with troops cn oard. A fearful bombardment of Santiao by the American fleet is reported j have taken place last Saturday, .'he destruction to fortifications and f life was terrible. It is said that he scene beggars description. Dead, ying and wounded Spaniards lay in dies and vultures hovered over tbe cone of carnage as thick as swaldws, and the hill tops were literally down away. The work of the Vesuius was affective and proves her to ie one of the most powerful engines f destruction in the American navy nd her capabilities have not been ally tested yet. Yesterday Major General Perez < f he Cuban army, commanding tbe surgent forces in the province cf Jantiago, paid an official visit to tie leet, and for the first time during he war a Cuba flag was seen at ti 6 nasthead of an American warship md saluted. As General Penz mrded the Marblehead a salute ? f lonor was fired and he was received )y a guard of honor. After landing rom the Mwblehead, General Perez node a short address to the troop3, jxtolling the actiou of the United states in taking up the Cuban cause, rfe ietu-ned to his post this morning ifter pafsing the night on the M.irjlebead. The troop transports have arrived 1 I at Santiago, but after consultatkn i with the Cuban chitf, it was found that the Spanish forced were so large that it was deemed best not to tiy to land unt.l re inforcement arrived. The war department has oidered 4,009 additional troops to Santiago, and they will leave Newport News Va., immediately. Another expedition will follow immediately. After the present troops go forward there will be 'J4,0C0 troops at Santiago. But the expedition will not stop at that number, a.^ theie is a determined purpose to send forward a sufficient force to crush any Spanish command that can be concentrated at that point. Admiral Sampson and Gen. Shatter visited the camp of the insurgent chief Garcia Monday, and were received with military honors. The Cuban commander's tent is a rude hut, covered with leaves and containing only a mcgre camp outfit. Here, after words of greeting had been spoken, the consultation . was held. It lasted several hours. Gen. Garcia explained his plan fully: told how he had the Spanish General, Pando, cooped up in Mauzauillo, without the possibility of his being able to cooperate with the Spanish troops at Santiago, and laid before the American officers maps showing all the mountain trails leading to Santiago from the most convenient landing places east and west of the harbor entrance. - ? ?
