Fruit trees are putting on their t-pring dresses. A few days last week were balmy and spring like. How did you like Monday and Tuesday for cold. Bltzzard of this week caught many persons without wood. The cold snap Monday gave many early gardeners the blues. The combs of roosters still show the effects of the recent freeze. Two new lamps have been added t) the attractions of lower Main street. Monday was salesday, but no one would have known it by the crowd I in town. ( We hear of small grain being killed I in some portions of the county by the cold. A small sized, wind, rain and thunder storm visited us early Sunday morning. Small grain has been injured but to what extent it is impossible to say at this writing. If you want fine vegetables, buy your seeds at the Bazaar. Guaranteed fresh and reliable. Monday was pleasant, then cold, there was sunshine and clouds, raiD, sleet and snow. We heard some farmers say that they intend going into truck farming for canning purposes. A correspondent writing from Irene, says that Mrs. Rebecca Day raised a hog weighing 515 pounds. Mr. Beattie Mathias, who has been sick for a few weeks, is at his studies in the Lexington Classical Institute. What fruit was saved from the freeze of last month was certainly killed by the cold winds of Monday night. Miss Maggie, the accomplished daughter of Auditor G. A. Derrick, is assisting her father in his official duties. M GURU WHtKt ALL tLSfc tAllb. ? U| U Best Cough Syrup. Tastes Good. Use H IS In time. Sold by druggists. Mr. Withers, the traveling 8gent for the Columbia State, was in town yesterday in the interest of his paper. Guano hauling has commenced in earnest and our streets are daily crowded with wagons loaded with strong smelling powder. Corn planting time is now here, but owiDg to the exceedingly wet season many farmers have not even broke up their lands yet. Dr. Julian E. Kaufmann is having the pavement in front of the "Old Drafts Hotel," repaired with brick, burnt plaster and sand. Mock orange trees and other evergreens plainly show the effects of the February freeze, in their blacken and deadened foilage. I am prepared to make or mend furniture of all kinds, buggies, wagons, and coffins at the lowest prices. Lee Snelgrove. Misses Lizzie Seay and Lola Harman, of the Providence section, have connected themselves with the Lex iDgton Classical Institute. Tbe grip has invaded the sacred precincts of the court, and without ! fear of the law before its eyes laid two of the limbs of the law low. After the plea?ant days of last week, the weather began turning c ?lder Sunday afternoon and Mon diy morniDg there was a heavy frost and some ice. In accordance with the require- i ments of law ihe registration books i - - ~ (J n ft I \> ei C uprucu JJLUUUaj, jluvuuuj j Wednesday for the purpose of regis- | teiiog new voters. All the tax returns are now in the 1 hands of the several Township and j Town Boards of Assessors, who will act upon thein and pass them on to \ the County Board for final action. Chief Justice J. Marshall Sheoly, j of the lower Fork circuit, was in town j ' Thursday looking as hale and hearty I 8S ever. The Justice says that Irmo I | is improving and spreading out and j he doesiTt know whether It mo will , swallow Columbia, or Columbia will j i swallow Irmo; or, ma\be a case like the fabled snakes, each will swallow t the other. ????a??p?aw? ? The chairman of the respective Township Boards of A-sensors constitute the County Board of E-j iali zaticn and will assemble at this p-ace on the 28th ins-1, at 10 o'clock in the forrncoo. All returns must j b in by th it time. I "Hilton's C^ugh Cure always cures ; a cough. It was made expressly for | that purpose. 2oc. For sale at the Bazaar. C.ipt. J Feaster Lyles, the able and popular representative of the Wild Cat section, was in town Monday and called to see us. When he left us he stood a cart wheel on our desk to remind us of his coming. Billy Martin has arrived ftom Cuba and occupies his summer resi dence in the rear of the JJi-patcn office. As soon as Billy puts his residence in thorough repair, Mrs. Martin and the balance of the family will arrive. It is said that this family are harbengers of spring and their appearance in a community is an unfailing indication that cold weather has passed. Mr. JasperS. Denick has qualified as Cjunty Treasurer and has taken charge of the office. He will make this his home for sometime and we extend him a hearty welcome. Mr. Derrick is not unacquainted with the duties of the office to which he has been elected, he haviDg acceptably served in this capacity before and will no doubt do so again. Mr. Ioor Hayes has purchased a planing outfit and is now prepared to dress lumber right at the doors of persons wishing to have any planing done. He will also contract to put up any kind of a building and will do so at the lowest prices and in the most workmanlike manner. He guarantees satisfaction in every par ticular. Parties wishing planiDg done or contemplating building should write him at Lewiedale,S. C., forestimates. He is now ltcated at the o'd Keisler station near Gilbert. Njw that Congress, through the efforts and influence of Senator Tillin m, has appropriated 8250,000 to open Congaree river to navigation from Granby to Gervais street, maybe the dream of a few years ago of our friend, Major Koon, will be realized. He drempt that the water front of Brookland would be crowded with ships flying the flag "of every nation and loading from immense elevators with the-products of Lex ington county. After a very prosperous and sue- . cessful session under the efficient management of Miss Sue H. Corley, one of our brightest and most popular school teachers, the Liberty Hill , school will close on March 18. The exercises will commence at 10 o'clock a. m., sharp. The patrons and the public generally are cordially invited to attend. A very interesting program has been arranged and its ' rendition will prove interesting to young and old alike. ' We very much regret that we have been compelled to discontinue the ( r \ Dispatch to the address of some of our careless subscribers, but in all candor and fairness, they have forced 1 us to do so by their own negligence. It cannot be reasonably expected that we can afford to send the Dispatch i without some compensation. In the lu'ure none but prompt pacing sub- I scribers need expect the Dispatch continued to them. Like other labor- 1 ing people, the printers would like to have what is due them in order to ! 1 meet their honest obligations. The wind is no respecter of persons. The rich and poor, the high and low who expose themselves to ' the elements are treated alike. We ' were forcibly reminded of the truth- 5 fulness of this axiom Monday night j when a rising young attorney and | | prominent town official was walking j 1 along the street with stately mein, ; in the gale which was prevailing 1 then the wind politely lifted his ?4 stylish Stetson, gently canied it over tbe roof of the court house, waltzed j around with it in the air several ( times and returned it to mother | earth on Main street in front of tbe ; ! residence of Mr. Hall, where it wai i r\t 11 m/3 1\TT onr r.inlif wul^lmir.n ! vj vui ui^iiu uuivutu" u after along and hot pursuit, \\Lo re- j timed it to its lightful owner.

A petition for a new road leading from High Hill church to Mildridge Lindler's on the Columbia and Newberry road, was received and given due consideration. It was finally decided to leave tne matter wun toe Supervisor for further investigation. F. C. Caugbman was awarded the contract for making repairs in the court house and j-til for ?7'Jo, including material. The chain gang will drain the Cherokee Ford by removing tbestoppage in the creek and doing other necessary work. ? Eeturned to His Lost Love. John Sheppard, colored, who with Hamp Rawl, made his escape from the chain gaDg and since the 30th day of January has been on the move dogging the officers of the law by hiding in the hedges and by ways became tired of living from hand to mouth and sighed for the flesh pots of the chain gang, so hitherward he turned his weary footsteps and arriving at the camp on last Saturday night and surrendered to Capt. C. L. Meetze. The hard hearted captain did not, however, kill the fatted calf to welcome hie prisoner back, but instead celebrated the event by placing a pair of steel bracelets on the wonderer's wrists. John will now probably serve out his sentence. His partner Hamp Riwl, has not been heard of since he took leg bail but the officers expect to have him back in the wigwam before many moons. The gang is now at Spring Hill and trill remain tViere fnr finmptilTlfi working on the locky hills of the Columbia road. New Town Officers.

In the first place it is expected that they will rigorously, but fairly and impartially, enforce the ordinances of the town. That all rioting, drunkenness and the use of obscene and indecent language as well as discharging fire arms on the public streets or any other disorderly conduct shall be stopped and that our Btreets be kept in good repair.
