Hot Times.
"-V;. There was quite a hot time in the
old town of Red Bank last Saturday
afternoon. Out of the usual routine
* the town put on its holiday attire
and the electors gave several of the
r-> candidates for county offices a right
reyal welcome. Judge Reeves Gantt,
who has recently forsaken the Bench
for the higher and nobler calling of
the Pupit, was in his happiest mode
and with his jokes and comicalities
kept the crowd in good humor. Rev.
S. J. Riddle was the master of ceremonies
and performed his part of the
program with satisfaction to all.
Sev eral candidates addressed the
i
meeting and made many votes.

Death's Betrothal.
A few years ago a New York newspaper
conducted an open discussion upon the
topic: "Is Marriage a Failure?" The
answer is easy and upon the surface. Where
there is mutual love and respect, if there is
also health, marriage is a success. When
health is left out, even the most ardent love
does not count, and marriage is invariably
a failure.
Modern science has cried the warning
so often that all should realize the dangers
of wedlock to people in ill-health. In-a
case of this kind death lurks on every side
?in the kiss of betrothal and the caress of
the honeymoon. The man who is suffering
from ill-health is a physical bankrupt, and
has no right to condemn a woman to be his
nurse for life and the mother of babes that
inherit his physical weakness. I)r. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery acts directly on
the digestive organism. It makes it strong
and its action perfect. When a man's digestion
is all right his blood will be pure;
when his blood is pure his nervous system
will be strong and his health vigorous.
A woman who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate organism of her sex
is certain to suffer from general ill-health,
and to be an unhappy, helpless invalid and
a disappointment as a wife. Her children
will be weak, puny and peevish. A happy
home is an imjiossibility for her until her
health is restoied. Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription cures all troubles of the distinctly
feminine organism. It cures them
speedily, completely and permanently. It
fits for wifehood and motherhood. Both
medicines arc sold by all good dealers.

Our genial friend, S. R. Smith,
who always enjoys himself with the
innocent and harmless pleasures of
this world and is filled to oveiflowing
with the milk of human kindness,
has started an innovation in this
county which we trust will meet with
popular favor. He proposes to give
a social dinner at C. R. Risk's, on
Saturday before the second primary,
to which everybody can go as if they
were in their own home and around
their own table.
Some of the old Confederates on
campaign day were pained to notice
how close the peas were sown to the
monument which recorded the deeds
of daring and bravery of their dead
comrades,and also how close the hack
berry trees, were to it which will overshadow
it and the shade of which
will 9tain and eventually cause it to
crumble and fall. On more than one
occasion we heard the remark that it
was a pity that this evidence of
woman's love and devotion to the
memory of the dead heroes should !
be thus treated.
Dr. Belcher, of Newberry, who has
acceptably presided at the prescription
department of Dr. Kaufmann's

his home. Dr. Belcher is a clever J
little man and has won his way to
the confidence and respect of our
people by his gentlemanly deport- I
ment and attention to business, and
wherever he may decide to cast his
lot and in whatever business he may
engage in, he carries with him the
best wishes of the Dispatch.

Special to The State.
White Rock, Aug. 29.-Last Thursday
was a big day for the people of
historic Spring Hill. It was the occasion
of the United Children's Day
services of the Kev. S. U. Ballentine s
charge. Possibly not less than 1,000
people were present. About 300
children participated in the exercises.
A beautiful . programme,
"About My Father's Business," was
well rendered. Two motion songs,
sung by about 75 children, deserve
special mention. We have heard
nothing but praises on all sides, and
every one eDjoyed the occasion.
Last week some miscreant shot
into the house of Anderson Daily,
who lives near Broad river. Mr.
Daily was in bed at the time and was
struck by several shot, but without
effect. Mr. Daily is a peaceable,
honest, law-abiding citizen, and it is
a mystery that one should do so foul
a deed.
A splendid barbecue was given at
Wnite Bock last Saturday. The
dinner was excellent. lions. D. F.

for re-election to the legislature, and

Spring is oil a visit to old friends on
Spring Hill. His fast friend, J. M.

strongest men, is very low with consumption.
Crops are very much damaged by

Deaths,
The messenger of deatb has been
abroad in our county and has gamed
precious jewels in the great store
house of eternity. Three pure and
unsullied souls have been summoned
beyond the Great Divide to be clothed
in beautiful raiments made white
in the Blood of the Limb and now
walk the streets of the New Jerusalem
where there is no night of dirkness
nor sorrow nor death, for death
to them is swallowed up in victory and
death had lost its sting by faith in
the everlasting promises ot Lioci.
Mrs. John Kiminer, of Sandy
Iian, after suffering intensely from
the ravages of a fatal disease, sweetly
and calmly fell asleep upon the
bosom of Jesus at her home on last
Friday morning, and her purified and
justified soul awoke in that mansion,
not made with hands eternal in the
heavens. A golden chord binding
eaith and heaven has been woven
and the gentle loving spirit of the
departed saint views affectionately the
way of her husband and two children
and becomes to them, she did so
fondly love, their guardian angel who
breaks from life's pathway to the
grave the sharpest thorns. Weep
not for her, ye grief stricken souls,
she is not dead, for there is no death.
She has only preceded you to that
bright land and now awaits your
landing upon the shores of that land
of eternal rest.
Quincy Ira, the bright and promising
young son of Mr. Levi Senn,
met with and accident last Sunday
which ended his life on this earth in
a peculiar manner at his father's
place about six miles from this place.
While in the lot he commenced to
tease a young colt which kicked him
a fearful lick in the head just behind
his ear. How long he lived after
receiving the kick is not knowD, as
he was unconcious when picked' up
and dead when the physician, who
had been immediately summoned,
arrived. Dr. Hendrix pronounced
the little fellow dead when he got
there and said he had been dead for
sometime. Quincy was born February,
1890 and died August 28, 1898.
His short life was a source of much
pleasure to the household and his
early demise has ended a career
which gave every promise of being
useful to his Church, county and
State. Our heart goes out in unrestrained
sympathy to the atllicted
household, and may God, in his infinite
love and wisdom use this dispensation
of his unerring providence
to his honor and glory and the
good of the afflicted ones.
Mary Ellen, the infant daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Harman, died
at the residence of Mr. John IT.
Meetze Monday. She had been in
feeble health for sometime, and devoted
parents brought her from their
home in Augusta, Ga., with the hope
that a change of climate would be
beneficial to her. But it was not to.
be Death had already claimed the
frail form for its victim. Her suf*
fe'rings are over and the sweet young
plant has beei} taken frcin earth tobe
transplanted in the garden of
Paradise. The stricken parents have
the sympathies of the community.
A Deplorable Tragedy.
Late in the afternoon of last Friday,
after the close of the State Campaign
meeting, an unfortunate and
rtiilfxr orr?cr> nvpv ft
UC?SllUiUiv/Ui vj w* vwv v v* m
trival matter between Mr. W. B.
Seay, familiarly known the county
over by the alias "Tom," and Mr,
Mc. Johnson, a policeman for the
day, in which Mr. Johnson received a
severe stab in the breast, the k^nife it
is said penetrated the lung and Mr.
Seay received a pistol ball in the
side, the ball-perforating bis bowels
and lodged in his leg, Mr.. Quitman
Roberts, a bystander received a flesh
wound in the thigh.
Mr. JohDson is still confined to his;
bed and while he is much improved
he is still in a critical condition.
Mr. Seay died irom the effects of
his wounds this morning at 3 o'clock
and his remains' were taken to his
home in the country where they will
be interred. When not under the
influence of whisky, Mr. Seay was
quiet and peaceable, kind hearted
and generous. He was a warm fritnd
and of a charitable disposition. It
can be truthfully said that he was
his worst enemy and his weaknets
was an over indulgence at times in
strong drink, and while in under
its influence he was generally
quarrelsome. Notwithstanding his
faults, he had a large circle of friends
who sincerely regret his tragic cieatli.
He \va3 a well-to-do, industrious
farmer and leaves quite an estate.
He was unmarried and leaves an
aged mother, several sisters and a
large circle of relatives to mourn his
tukiDg off.
The sympathies of the entire community
go out to Mr. Johnson ami
exlionorate him from all blame.
An Old Idcn.

cause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-five years asro this theory was used

Women in Easiness.
From the Free Press, Detroit, Mich.
A prominent business man recently
expressed the opinion that
there is one thing that will prevent
women from completely filling man's
place in the business world?they
can't be depended upou because they
are sick toe often. This is refuted
* *- tt' -% r nil _ 1
by 3irs. u. H. jiausueiu, u uusmc?s
woman of 08 Farrar St., Detroit,
Mich , who says:
' A complication of female ailments
kept 1110 awake nights ami wore me
out. I could get no relief from med- >
icine and hope was slipping away
from me. A young lady in my employ
gave nae a box of Dr. "Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People. I took
them and was able to rest at Dight
for the first time in months. 1 bought
more and took them and they cured
me as they also cured several other
people to my kuowledge. I thiuk
hat if you should ask any of the
druggists of Detroit, who are the
best buyers of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills they would say the young
women. These pills certainly build
up the nervous system and maDv a
youDg woman owes her life to them.
"As a business woman I am pleased
to recommend them as they did more
SUDDENLY PROSTRATED.
for me than any physician and I can
give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People credit for my general
good health to-day.*'
No discovery of modern times has
done so much to enable women to
take their proper place in life by
safe guarding their health as Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.
Acting directly 011 the blood and,
nerves, invigorating the body, regulating
the functions, they restore the
strength and health to the exhausted
woman when every effort of the physician
proves unavailing.
For the growing girl they are of

Turkey Killing Dogs.
Col. D. T. Barr, the old wheel
horse of Democracy, seems to have
bad luck with his turkeys, the raising
of which he is famous the county
over. Last year the "yalller* dog
got among his droves and what they
could not consume they destroyed.
This year he has had the repetitiou
of the same experience. Roaming
dogs again visited his place and
killed his turkeys. In self protec
tion the Colonel should provide himself
with a sixteen shooter and kill
every strange dog he finds on bis
place. The Gsueral Assembly has
time and again refused to provide
the adequate means of relief for
cases like this and similar ones and
it only remains now for our people to
take the law in their own hands in so
far as the roaming "yaller" cur is
concerned, and depopulate our county
of these nuisances.

The Standard Bale,
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
"We bear a grcst deal of late about
the condition of the American cotton
bale when from t'ae tane of the various
communications it seems that
the farmers is to blame for the entire
nest of evils. I as a farmer can
plead guilty to only one, and that is
that we do not pack a bale of concerted
size. The farmer, as a rule,
with few exceptions, puts his cotton
on the market in a clean and well
wrapped condition. After that duty
platforms, warehouses, cotton books.
and filthy cars, wharves, and vessels,
are to blame for the state in which
it arrives at the factories. I am will
ing to be blamed for any pait of the
neglect, but, think farmers, as a class,
are innocent of this offense. We are
ready to adopt a uniform bale and
put on a certain number of yards of
bagging and a certain number of

the same among themselves.
