Our handsome and gallant young
lover across the Congaree should
have the words "prose poetrj" and
"ridicule" copyrighted, so as to prevent
jealous rivals from stealing its

Hon. W. H. F. Rast Comes Out of
the Senatorial Race.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
i I take this method of informing
[ my friends and supporters, that after
mature deliberation, I have decided
that my business affairs are iu such
i shape as to demand my personal su
pervision and undivided attention,
( and that under the circumstances it
would be an injustice to the people
| and the Democratic party, as well as
| to myself and the other candidates
. to remain longer in the race, for by
[ doiDg so another primary will be
s necessitated. To obviate this
> necessity, I have, therefore, decided
. that the best course for me to puri
sue is to withdraw from the race.
[ I am deeply conscious of the fact
that this determination places me in
I au awkward but false position before
. my people, especially is this the case
, after the publication cf my last card
1 in the Dispatch. At that time how
ever, I had not authorized any one to
) circulate the report that I would
withdraw; but intended in that leti
ter to withdraw but acting under
> the advise of friends I concluded to
i remain in the race in the hope that
(satisfactory arrangements could be
w v
made to continue the race to the
' finish. In this I was mistaken.
> The people have good men to se1
lect a Senator from, and the election
of either one of the three means that
f the interest of Lexington county will
' be well and faithfully protected.
> I now ask my friends not to judge
> me too harshly. What I did was
1 done, as I thought, for the best. I
! extend my heartfelt thanks to friends
and others for the many kindnesses
' and favors received while I was in
public life. I tried to do my duty as
an honest Christian gentleman and
have nothing but the kindest feel
iogs for all and trust that our grand
> old county will still continue to be
1 one among the honored counties of
1 our commonwealth.
) Yours sincerely,
W. H. F. Rast.

To the Eiitor of the Dispatch:
Rev. Mr. McFarlane ha3 just closed
a series of meetings at Cross Roads
Methodist church with great spiritual
awakening in the 'membership
and several conversions and additions.
He had no ministerial help and had
all the preaching to do himself, but
friend Mc. has the spirit and power
to do that.
The Baptist church at Sardis has
also had a good meeting. The pastor,
James M. Sanford, was assisted by
Rev. Hopkins, of Jamison. He is a
young man of worth and promise in
the pulpit.
Lumber has advanced considerably
in price and our lumber cutters are
getting orders more than they can
fill and their faces light up with a
smile over the prospect. Where
lumber demand in our State is so
great building and prosperity is
certainly on a boom.
Swansea's two aspirants for -the
Senatorial crown seem easy and composed
and calmly awaiting the
August barbecues to present their
case and their views on the questions
of the hour. Four men are on the
housetop, one will be taken and three
will be left, and each one and their
friends are anxiously asking, "Lord

The merchants are all doing a
. lively trade and our doctors of late
have been much revived in their
gloomy mood by the appearance of
considerable sickness around. It is
an ill wind that blows good to nobody.
While every runaway horse that
breaks some poor man's head or
boner, and every one that is shot,
and every time someone falls from a
scaffold and dies, bringing sorrows
to the alllicled family it brings joy to
the medicinal world.
Every time a train runs over some
j traveller or tramp and kills him,
j there is a significant 6mile on the
j face of those who stand at the "bar

I Magistrates seem to be glad to hear
! of a death from "causes unknown,"
to have a pleasant trip into the
country at the public's expense.
We have had a cool, rainy spell
and "water millions" are in slow de
! mand.
On last Saturday evening Capt. J.
! C. I. Wannamaker came to town to
! meet the surviors of the struggle of
i the never to be foregotten loDg ago.
i The camp here is called Camp Kaigj
ler, in honor of Fred Kaigler. Fred
i Kaigler was one who for years carried
| the flag of the First South Carolina
i Infantry, with credit to himself and
| honor to his comrades. The First
I South Carolina was second to no
regiment and Capt. Wannamaker and
his gallant fellow soldiers have left
' a record from Manasses and Cold
' Harbor to the surrender that is en!
viable and to be coveted. Lexington

meet then and tell all about our own

The cloud burst just below in
Orangeburg county on Monday must

When a tree does not bear good
fruit, or none at all, it is hewn
down. We haven't yet been hewn
dowD, but, to the contrary, more of
our trees are bearing good fruit than
ever. 20,000 patrons testify to this
annually. It's a fact that there are
all sorts of everything; so of fruit
trees; ours bear good fruit true to
name. Our growth for over 30
years is a positive proof. Fruits for

Ths Amsrican Losses.
Seattle, Wash., July 20 ?The
Times prints what purports to be a
full list of fatalities in the American
I army in the Philippines up to June
2. The list was furnished by Fred
F. Eitell, a representative of The
Manila Freedom, who claims to have
obtained it from the records of the
surgeon general's office at Manila.
The total number of fatalities is
737?23 officers, GOO privates and 12
civilians attached to the army. A
remarkable feature of the record is
found in the statement that the number
of officers killed in battle is out
of all proportion to the number of
privates killed. On the other hand,
fewer officers died from disease proportiontionately
than privates. Out
of the 23 officers, 1G were killed in
action, 2 were drowned and 5 died of
disease. Of the 690 privates, 20J
died of wounds received in actioD; 0
were killed accidentally; 23 were
drowned and 7 committed suicide;
106 died of typhoid fever; 89 of
smallpox; 47 of dysentery; 28 of
pneumonia; 19 of malarial fever, and
14 of meningitis. The remainder
died from various diseases. Of the
15 deaths among civilians, 7 were
from smallpox and 3 from gunshot
wounds receivad in action.
Good Day for Beer.
L;quor Constables Seized Over 500
bottles Yesterday.
The Columbia State, July 3J.
Yesterday when the humidity of
the atmosphere was considered was
what every other man a person met
characterized as the hottest day of
the season. Aoy way the hquor
constables, Bateman and Cureton, od
duty in Columbia, considered it a
fine day for beer and they went out
to see what they could get. They
ransacked a piece of Main street
property having to break the locks to
get into one cellar and managed to
secure a little liquor and what was
considered by them the equivalent of
about 400 bottles of beer, some 51
bottles being on ice. Then they
went to a place onGervais street and
got about 150 bottles of beer and a
small keg of beer. There is no evidence
to show the ownership of this
last batch of the frothy fluid.
