The Lexington Dispatch Burned April 25th; rebuilt Jul} 19, 1894. G. M. HARAIAX. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C\, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1S0Q. Brockland Items To the Editor of the Dispatch: At the lasting regular meeting of the Town Council it was ordered that the books for tax returns be opened for 1900 Cieik Hoed is also kept very busy registering voters for the coming municipal election which takes place early in May. Tte quietness of cur town at present is remarkable, the IuteDdact is not busied with the frfqueat callof the old mourners The town idow presided over by men of pustend awake to every interest of he) citizens At one time recently a little friction did exist between the town officials and tbe deliiquents, but acting under the advice of the Town Attorney, the trouble has been removed and harmony now prevails Several newvetreets have been opened up in the section of the factory village where fifty or more beautiful cottages have been erected Dr. F.

Poles are now being placed for the new Telephone line that will connect Lexington. This line passes through the centre of our town. Several business men are speaking of haviDg phones, so it will soon be ' Hello Lexir gton.'' Messrs. Witt and Caughman have returned from their "courting'' trip. They speak very encouragingly of their first experience. Mrs. J. G. Guignard and daughter, Miss Bruce, met with a very painful accident while returning home Friday evening. The horse became frightened at the street car and dashed toward the bridge at such a gate that the driver could not rein him in, and on reaching the bridge ran into a buggy throwing the occupants out and painfully injuring both. They were quickly taken in at Mr. Ly brand's and cared for until necessary preparations could be arranged for their removal home. Drs. Taylor, and GibbeB were telephoned for and eocn announced that the injuries sustained were very senous ana painful but not fatal. Both Mrs. Guigoard and Miss Guignard at this writing are doing very well and their many friends hope for a speedy re covery. Mr. Jake Buijdrick, who a few days ago met with a painful accident while in the service of the street car company, is slowly improving. Miss Glad>8 D<?ntt after spending a fortnight with relatives at Irmo, has returned borne. Mrs. M. H. Witt, accompanied with her little daughter, Matte, is spending a short time with relatives iD the Selwood community. Mit-s Pearl Denham entertained her many little friends on the evening of the 3rd instant with music, plays and other social amusements. Matrimony, it seems, has gotten to be foreign to the nature of our young people, though it may be that tbe little germs implanted by nature are slowly but surely maturing when it will only need a gentle brerze to fan the fuel in to flames. Methinks a youDg pedagogue has been recently awakened by the magnetic influence of the aim of Cupid's bow which was at first regarded as a delusive fancy. D. -? ? Cctmty Teachers' Association. The association met in the Institute building on Saturday, February 24:b, at 12 M. The president, Mr. J. F. Kaiser, presided over the meeting. In absence of the secretary, Mr. L. A. Sease, the chair, appointed Mr. D. C. Draftp, secretary protem. The speakers for the various subjects were all absent except, Mr. R E. SLealy, who opened the discus j sion on "Teachers' Sa7a~:e Mr. Shealy read an able paper od this subject, after which various members present entered into the discussion. The drift of the argu inent was that teachers could prepare themselves, so that a demand for efficient workers would increase the salaries. Teachers should read educational journals, study the science of teaching, attend the asso ciation?, and summer schools, if they expect to keep abreast with ttie age; ; and by so doing would naturally be j better prepared for the occupation of ! teaching successfully. Several new members were present and ei joyed the meeting. Many interesting suggestions were made, and all present seemed to feel the benefit derived therefrom. The following program *as ar j raDged for the next meeting, March i 21 h, 1900: 1 Tho best method of teaching interest?Col J. Brooks Wirgatd. 2 S^stk-m in schools?Miss Mary C Wingard. 3.

Sam Harm an and Miss Jodie Caugbraac, Mr. Clay Riberts and M;ss Annie Dtily, Mr. Frank Roberts end Miss Carrie Roberts, Mr. Van Diran Harman and Miss Hattie Roberts, formed u unique setting for the handsome groom and lovely bride. At tbe termination of the marriage service a hearty tendering of congratulations transpired, after which the entire company repaired to the banquet, where time passed as a dove's wing swift and of a silken sound in the sweet delight of social converse intensified bv the sensuous objects of beauty and fragrance, rare flowers and tempting delicacies to the palate. Tue bride was apparelled in a trailing gown of tan, of costly fabric, frimmorl in nruon rolref. cillr and cream apple que, and held in her hand a beautiful boq iet of maiden hair fern, white narcissus and freesias. A fairy tot of a few summers, the lovely little daughter, of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Harman, aud the niece of the bride, attired in rich colors of dark blue and white, preceded the bridal procession carrying in her tiny pink white fingers her dainty floral offering of love and pure'affection. Mr. Kjberts is an enterprising and successful business man of Columbia, S. C , to which splendid city he takes his fair bride and where they will make their future residence. The farewelh and blessings of many loving hearts follow them to their new home. G. - A man dragged by a wild horse would cut himself loose if he could.

The " Golden Medical Discovery " is the best blood-maker?fiesli-builder?nerve-vitalizer. It frees the body from all disease germs. " It invigorates the whole digestive system and strengthens heart, lungs and brain. Hundreds of thousands of grateful patients have testified to its value. George II. Belcher. Esq., of Dorton, Pike Co., Ky., writes: "Thirteen years ago I was wounded by a ball passing through inv lung. I had a bad cough almost ever since with shortness of breath: the slightest change of weather would cause the cough to be so bad I would have to sit up in bed all night. A few months ago I began using Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Disc oven.*, and now can cat, sleep and work, and I feel like a new man."

To the Editor of the Dispatch: A happy marriage took place in Montmorenci, Aiken county, at the home of Mr. John D Qoattlebaum, a former native of Lexington county, on January 26, 1900, at 11 o'clock a. m. The contracting parties were Miss May Quattlebaum and Mr. Willie Ussery of Williaton, S C., Rev. Peacock cfSciating. The wedding march was beautifully rendered by Miss Agnes HallmaD, of Augusta, Ga. The following were the chosen bridesmaids and groomsmen, prec.ded by Mr. and Mrs. Cullum, sister of the bride: Misses and Messrs. Mottie Quattlebauin with Kldio Galium, LuU Haliman with "Walter Bates, MoDorie Barton with Jirnmie Bites, Lizzie B-tet with Jimrnie Callura, Annie May Bates with C. G Quattleb&um, Mattie Mims with Eddie Q :attlebaum. After the ceremony and congratulations the guests were invited to a sumptuous repast consisting of all the good things suited to satisfy the inner man. The afternoon was spent by tLe ycung people in buggy riding and having a good time in genera), and at night a very pleasaut social ended the festivities of the day, long to be i remembered by those who had the honored pleasure of being present. A Friend. The Grim Esapsr. A Promin^nt Physiciau of Bitesburg Crosses the Mysterious River. To the E litor of the D.spatch: I regret to announce the death yesterday p. m. of Dr. T S Fux. The Doctor had been troubled with some disease of the heart for some days, but few thought he was so near the ftual c iliap^e. He was about G3 years old, was born iu old Lexington, was educated largely there and all~fais l.fe cheerisb<-d a strong inclination for the scenes of his childhood. He was a medic.il student at a ISew lorn colege, graduated and practiced for some time in the New York Hospitals, returning home he located in Ltrangeburg county, but the outbreak cf the C.vil war occurring soon after, he volunteered in Aiken's cavalry, but was soon after appointed a surgeon in the army, where he served until the end tf the war. In 186G he located in thi3 section and since then be has been one of the foremost physicians in tbis section of the State. He enjoyed a large practice and was very successful, his judgment was almost unerring and he was kind aud attentive in all cases. Reasonable and common sense in his j methods. Of late years he was much troubled with rheumatism and in consequence he had given up the most laborious of his practice and confined his work nearer home and also took an interest in the drug business with Dr. E. K. Hardin. The funeral exercises will be con ducted this afternoon at the Baptist church, after which the Masons will complete the ceremonies at the cemetery, and he will be laid beside his father and mother, and with them, will rest in the silent city of the dead until the resurrection morn. To the readers of the Dispatch he was well known, and his family and friends here feel sure that tuey have the sympathy of the entire county. He leaves a wife and five children, the youngest 12 or 1-4 years of age. He had been prosperous in his business and left his dear ones amply provided for. Occasional. Batesburg, S. C. March 6, 1900. - ? Wagcner Notes. To the Eliior of the Dispatch: From the way the farmers are hauling guano there will be a large crop of cotton planted in this section this year. Messrs. Crom Gmtt and S. It. Smith, of the Black creek section, Lexington county, had two very sick children with pneumonia last week, but under the skillful treatment of Dr. Echeredge, of this place, they have recovered. G Jones B dtzegar has been appointed Magistrate at this point. The Judge has officiated in this capacity for eighteen years and gives peifeet satisfaction to all parties. Mr. A. M. Hutto has severed his connection with Gantt & Gintt and will move to PelioD, over iu Lexington county, where he will eDgage in the general merchandise business with Mr. D. F. Shumpert, of Rishton. ^ As the time draws near we notice many that have political aspirations moving around among the dear people, both in Lexington as well as Aiken county. As we are a Lexington man, and wiil in a few days be back in our old mother county, we feel very much interested in Lexington affairs. Mr. C. L. Jones was elected Town Treasurer by our Town Council at their meeting and he is being urged by a host of friends to enter the race for County Treasurer, but he says h s has no political aspirations and ha has only been in Aiken county for a few months, though he was born and raised to manhood in Aiken county and no doubt if he would make the race he would make it hot t J.. lux euujtiuusjj.

Stokss will succeed himself beyoDd question of a doubt ! If there is opposition to hi3 re-clec- i tion, it is even less than on former j occasions. He was deservedly popu- j lar in previous campiigns, though his opportunities for proving hi3 fitness for the high trust reposed in | him were limited in a large measure.! The contests for his seat greatly j hampered him. but as soon as these and other impediments were obviated, he set out to hard work. His efforts were directed mainly to the rural mail service because this was about the only branch of public service that could be extended to any considerable number of the rural population. The very limited experiments, tried at first, brought results not expected by the most saDguine friends of the nail service. This . summer will witness the service vastly extended and we predict that it is here to stay. It will stand as n monument to th9 efforts and fore sight of Orangeburg's Congressman i who has made a more enviable record by his work than by speech-making. Dr. Stokes' constituents in other counties are equally pleased with his fine record. In some sections of this county there has been a decided change cf sentiment and opinion regarding him. ' The St. Matthews correspondent to the News and Courier, discussing the local political situation says: ''Political slates are already rmde and the local campaign inthiscouoty next summer promises to bo lively and interesting. So far no opposition is heard against Dr. Stokes for Congress and it i3 doubtful whether 1 there is a man in this district at | present that can give him even a ! close race." The above is significintj because it comes from an intelligent * community where formerly strong ' opposition has existed agiinst Dr. | Stokes.
