Christmas News from Lewiedale.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
THE CHRISTMAS TREE.
On Friday night before Christmas
was a most delightful occasion.
This tree was gotten up by Prof.
L. A. Sease and his school, and. was
loaded with presents, consisting of
a candy and apple treat from the
professor for each one of his pupils,
besides many other presents for the
children by patrons and friends.
The tree was a veritable beauty and
the exercise most wise and befitting.
The program was short, consisting
? of six recitations by pupils selected
from the different grades, interspersed
with music by the Hall Band, announcements,
distributions of presents
and a jolly all round good time
for all.
SUNDAY CHRISTMAS SCENES.
At the usual hour Rev. T. F.
Rivers was in the pulpit of the Baptist
church with the usual congregation
before him, his theme being The
Imperfectness of Ojr Knowledge of
Heaven. Without purpose to outline
or comment upon his discourse,
the writer will refer to only one proposition
near the close which was:
"Many who now have bright hopes
of heaven will fail to enter there."
In illustration, the speaker related
t le story of the soldier from the
mountains of North Carolina. H jw,
with joyful heart and bouyant hopes,
he, with some comrades, set out for
their homes and loved ohes; how, at
length, he came near his home, and
at last in sight, but there was a river
between him and his dear family and
home, and the night was dark, soon
they came to the river, swollen by
recent rains, but the boat was on the
opposite side and no boatman at
hand. All their shouting and hal1
? ^ ?>">!! Tno lna f..
n ao Kjk u\j avau. Jkus. vyww
man did not bear; the boatman did
not come. He could see the light
upon his offn hearthstone up the
mountain side and almost hear the
merry prattle of his happy children
whom he had not seen in gome time.
How could he stay here all night?
He could not, he would plunge into
the rushing stream and risk getting
to the otherside and then to his
fimily. His friends pointed out the
danger and persuaded him to wait
till morning, but he would not listen.
%
So he rashly plunged into the mad,
rushing stream. *'Mr. MeGrady's
house is on fire!" rang in the shrill,
excited voice of Mrs. M, as the
church door flew open and she
bounded in. The preacher stopped
short and in a moment the congregation
was all astir . while many were
making their way after Mr. and Mrs.
? ? .1 t i n i
Mcuraay to tne Durning nouse. x>ui
the hoase did not barn, the
preacher did not finish that story.
Rev. Evans Hsll succeeds Rev. T.
F. Rivers as Pastor of the Baptist
church here, beginning his work next
Sunday.
Rev. D. A. Lewis, who has rented
Dr. L. A. Griffiths residence, moved
in last week.
Well?I'll stop or to the waste
basket Til go?but permit me in
conclusion, to wish A Happy New
Year to the Dispatch, its editor and
? corps, and both friend and foe.

Batesburg Notes.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
January 2,1899.
The New Year came in the lap of
a cold wave and the chilling blast
remind us as severe winters oft
passed through and how we hate
bitter weather, and how we suffer
from cold and wish it would turn
warm, buf so far we have been
spared the pain of big snows or
severe freezes?the latter especially
makes our flesh quiver to even think
of it?but severe cold has its redeeming
features and we trust that the
germs of disease will be thoroughly
frozen out aDd the health of our people
improved, and that will be cause
of rejoicing all around.
The raiDy fall was a set back on
the sowing of grain and many were
disappointed by not being able to
put in all the wheat and oats they
wished, but they are finishing up
now and the prospects are good for
grain next year and we hope ho disaster
will befall us and we will be in
some measure independent, if cotton
is only five cents per pound.
The Christaj^ Holidays were delightfully
spent. We had peace,
plenty and harmony, and with these
three things, we should be contented.
We have no drunken brawls and
King Alcohol was very little in evidence,
and we are inclined to the
view that the moral tone of the people
is good, notwithstanding the
opinion of some that we are ne*r the
line of perdition. Every succeeding
Xrnas we see less of the effects of
whiskey and if the improvement goes
on for a few years I feel that pro
hibition will come of its own volition.
Our community suffers very much
inconvenience by not having a resident
Magistrate. It is ten miles to
the nearest one and we have thiity
stores and a population of about a
thousand, and we have a number of
petty thefts that could be punished
if it did not necessitate an additional
expenditure, for instance, should a
nair of shoes, a nitr. or a few chickens
r? > - it obe
stoleD, the whole amount involved
would not be more than a couple of
dollars, then to arrest the culprit,
we have to first hunt up the thief
and then hire a turnout which costs
two dollars and go ten miles and
back, and a loss of an entire day
from business in order that the arrest
can be made and by that time
frequently the culprit has made way
with either himself or the evidence
of his guilt and so nothing is accomplished.
We have a great many
tramps and others incident to the
two railroads and they should have
the terror of the law to keep them
straight.
AmoDg the visitors to our town
during the holidays were U. X.
Gunter, Jr., Esq , Assistant Attorney
General of the State. X has made a
phenominal rise in politics and we
confidently look forward to higher
stations in the near future that he
will fill to his credit and the pride of
his Batesburg friends. No Lexington
boy has probably ever attaind
such prominence at such an early
age, and it appears that in whatever
place he occupies he wears the
* 11
Donors wtn.
The health of our town is good and
all are in bright spirits. The youDg
folks are having their evening sociables
and innocent amusement is
the order of the day.
W. S. Hite is absent to your town
in attendance on the County Board,
and I presume the old officials will
wind up their affairs and yield to the
new guardians of our interest .
Happy New Year to the Dispatch
I and its constituency.

neglects his health the weeds of disease
will grow up and choke it.
It is a daily and hourly marvel that men
will recklessly neglect their health, when
a moment's thought should tell them that
! they are courting death. It lies in most
every man's power to live to a green old
I age. If a man would only take the same
care of himself that he does of his horse, or
cow, or dog, he would enjoy good health.
| When a man owns a hundred-dollar horse,
| and it gets sick, he does not waste any time
j about doctoring him up. When his garden
gets full of weeds, he doesn't delay about
rooting them out, for he knows they will
choke out his vegetables. When he is out
of sorts, sick, nervous, keadachey, has no
appetite and is restless and sleepless at
night, he pays little attention to it. The
result is consumption, nervous prostration
or some serious blood or skin disease. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best of all medicines for hard working men.
It gives edge to the appetite, facilitates the
flow of digestive juices, invigorates the
liver and purifies and enriches the blood.
It is the great blood-maker and fleshbuilder.
It cures 98 per cent, of all cases
of lingering coughs, bronchial and throat
affections, weak lungs, bleeding from lungs
and kindred affections. Do not wait until
the lungs are too far wasted to admit of
being cured.
' As you know, five years ago the doctors had
given me up to die with consumption," writes
Mr. E. G. McKinney. of Deepwater, Fayette Co..
W. Va. "I took "treatment from Dr. R. V.
Pierce, and am entirely well now. I had taken
steadily, as directed, his 'Golden Medical Discovery*.'
"
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation
One little "Pellet" is a dose.
Declines to Accept.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Please allow me a short space in
vonr columns to make an exolaDation
to the many friends I have on both
the north and south side of Saluda
river, relative to the dispensary and
my election as dispenser at theCauit
House. I have been elected by the
Board of Control as dispenser at
Lexington C H. There being ODly
two dispensaries in the county?one
located in the Fork and the other
one at the Court House?after carefully
considering the matter, I have
come to the conclusion that the dispenser
at the Court House should be
a man from the south side of the
river, thinking that in all such matters
patronage should be divided between
the two sides of the river, consequently
I have tendered my resignation
to the Board of Control.
Thanking my many friends for their
past favors, I remain, yours very respectfully,
James B. Addy.
A Fine Piece of Color Work.
An experienced art critic gives it
as his opinion that there will be no
handsomer piece of color work issued
this year than Hood's Sarsaparilla
Calendar for 1809. It is not
only useful, but artistic and beautiful,
and up to date. The charming
''American Girl" whose beautiful face
appears with a delicately painted
flag in the background, makes a
pleasing feature which anyone will
be pleased to have before him the
whole of 180D. We suppose druggists
will have this Cajpadar, or a
copy may be obtained by sending G
cents to C I. Hood & Co, Lowell,
Mass.
See the great display of candy at
the Bazaar, before you buy your
Christmas supply, or at any time you
may want the best and purest candy.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Hope you had a Merry Chiistmas
and a Hippy New Year.
Generally speaking the health of
our community is good. The measles
are somewhat subsiding, still we hear
of <omo isolated cases.
Otto Goodwin is spending his
holiday vacation in and arouDd
Gaston. Otto wears a broad smile
in his uniform of grey.
Mr. J. G. Fallaw resigns his position
with Messrs. Rast Brothers, and
comes home to erect a new dwelling
'and sing lullabys to little John R..
The stove in the old Piatt Springs
school was sold recently and the proceeds
went for the Athen's school,
the clear tones of which can now be
heard over hill and dale summoning
the youths to mental duties.
Rev. H. M. Fallaw is home from
Furman. He speaks well of the
University and will return after his
well earned vacation to pursue his
studies in this time honored institution.
Mrs. W. B. Fallaw is visiting relatives
and frieDds in the Wagener
neighborhood.
Mrs. Kiddie Wise experienced a
series of athletic exercises the other
day by descending the stair steps of
Mr. Sphaler. We are glad, however,
to chronicle the fact that she sustained
no severe or fatal injuries.
Mrs. J. M. Kneece and family of
Aiken, are visiting under the parental
roof of Mrs. R J. Fallaw.
Our little genial friend, Clarence C.
Craft, was home on a short furlough
Christmas from the Citadel. Clarence
stood the examination for the scholarship
at West Point and won but
failed on his physical examination.
He then competed for the vacancy at
the Citadel and won. There are fiftyfour
in his class and Clarence leads it.
This is a fine record for little Clarence
and we predict success for him.
What Gastonian called on his best
girl on Christmas and went away
with a down cast look and broken
heart because he f
Mrs. E. Hall of Samaiia, is spending
the Christmas holidays in Gaston.
The Oakdale school continues to
grow. It now has a register of
seventy five. This school observed
Arbor day on the 23d ult. After
some appropriate exercises in songs,
declamations and historical facts
concerning trees, there were hackberries,
cedars, shrubs, apples,
flowers and others planted out. After
all was over the school went into an
election for a State flower in which
the wild rose came out victorious.
This school has a well organized
Literary Society with W. B. Fallaw,
president; Daniel Jefcoat, secretary
* and John W. Boles, treasurer. The
society meets once a week.
The State Legislature ineel^ on
the 10th ult. and among the many
topics to claim the attention of the
worthy honorables, will be one to
enact a special act to allow !99 as
Leap Year for "Klondike's" own individual
benefit in order that his
dreams, aircastles and imaginations
may be realized in substance. Billy
knew he had the light idea in his
trhan Vla morlii flio mnw fnr
gUUXU TV UCli UV UJUV4V KUV wwvt v *w
a division of the Teachers' meeting
and he was still aware of the fact
that if no ripe and mature minded
teacher would second the motion,
that "Klondike'' was just "green
enough"' to do so. Good, that we
still have the stock law.
"Levi stands to the saw all the
time, except Sunday. Ask him where
he is then."' Answer^ "Where "Klondike"
wants to be, or in a similar
position.
The old y^ar goes out with many
changes, both on land and sea. '98
goes down on the pages of history
with some wondeiful events wrought
by the American people. '99 comes
in with many resolutions formed and
and we trust not to be broken. May
the coming year be one of happiness,
prosperity and good will towards all
mankind.
Billy wishes and sends greetings
to all humanity and success to the
same, and especially, the good old
Dispatch.
Should the pious, faithful and
amiable Mrs. Felix return to the
embraces of a fond and true husband,
you may again hear from

Eobbsd the Grave.
A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subiect. is narrated bv him as fnl
lows: "I was in a most delightful
condition. My skin was almost yellow,
eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain
continually in back and sides, no appetite?gradually
growing weaker
day by day. Turee physicians had
given me up. Fortunately, a friend
advised trving 'Electric Bitters:' end

to my great joy and surprise, the

I continued their use for three
weeks, and am now a well man. I
