A Sketch of the Late Thomas Shelton Fox, M. D. Thomas Shelton Fcx, M. D, the eldest son of John and Eliza Poindexter Fox, was born at L xiDgtc-n O >urt House, S C, September 1st, ii?? TTio educational advantages JL ? _ in )outh were the best to be had in \is native county. At the ?ge cf nineteen he entered the famous University of Virginia, graduating with distinction at the end of the third year. The profession of medicine W8S chosen a3 his life work, and beiDg ambitious to excel, he attended and graduated from one cf the best colleges of medicine in the city of New York. After graduation he 6pent eighteen months in active practice in a hospital on Blackwell's Island, N. Y, under the eye of some of the ablest practicioners of that day. From there he returned to his native State and began the practice of his profession in Orangeburg county near the town cf Branchville. He enlisted in the Confederate * ( Anril. as a corporal in ? ?r?' ' the Edisto Rifle?, Co. A, First Regiment, South Carolina Infantry, commanded by Col. Eagood. Thi3 regiment was disbanded after the fall of Fort Samter when he enlisted as a Sergeant in Company B, Sixth South Carolina cavalry. After eight months service in thi3 command he was promoted to the position of Assistant surgeon and was assigned to the Sixty-sixth North Carolina regi meat, then stationed at Wilmiogton, N. C. Ee served in that capacity until Johnson's forces surrendered at G.-eencboro, N C. Ee participated in the bombardment of Fort Sumter, S. C, the battle of Bermuda Hundred, Va , Plymouth, N C , the siege of Petersbug, Va., Fort Fisher, N. C., and the battle of Bentonvilie, N C His career as a soldier was narked bv that feat less devotion to - duty which wa3 to b9 expected of one who possessed his love of country and his high sense of personal honor. No sooner had the smoke of battle cleared away than he returned to his own and his fathers native county and resumed the practice of medicine, locating in 1S66, near to where the present town of Batesburg now stands. When he came the man was almost wholly unknown and the physician was well nigh an utter stranger in the entire community. It was not long before the physician's skill attracted public attention and through the physician the people came to know the man. To know him was to respect, admire, honor and love him. When the railroad was built and the town located in 1869, he became a citizen of Batesburg and has been ever since. Ia 1879 he won the heart and hand of Miss Mamie- YouDgblood, the eldest daughter of Mr. Louis W. Young o o blood of E Jgefield county. To them have been born six children?five sons and a daughter?the first born, a 8 >n, dying in infancy. Soon after the civil war Dr. Fox b:came a member of the Masonic fra-eroity, in the principles and pro gress of which he cherished a lively interest. His zeal and devotion to the ord^r were recognized and rewarded by his brother Masons in his repeated elevation to the highest office within their gift. He was the first and last Master of Batesburg Lodge A. F. M. It may be mentioned as a coincidence that the first Mason made in theBatesburg Lodge acted as Master at the burial of Dr. Fox, the first Master. He died at 2 o'clock p. m., March 5, 1900, of heart disease. For a year previous to his death he had occasional symptoms of the fatal malady, but not until a few weeks before bis death did they assume a dangerous form. The shock which came to the hearts and homes of a multitude iD town and country, as the news went abroad "Dr. Fox's dead," can never be understood except by those who ft-lt it. We all knew he filled a large place in our hearts and in cur community, but wo did not realize how large until we were brought to look into the great void his death had TV?r a third nf epntnrv his rela-ions to the community bud been such as to mark birri more than any o her man, aj entitled to t e honorable distinction, '*our fifbt citizen." I', is cot txtravagant to say, in the long procession which followed Lis hearse, almost every individual was a re-.l mourner. It was said at his f mira! that 'Dr. Fox's worth to the community was indicated by the good he had done and by the friends he had made." Ilis friends were not made?they gttw. He courted the friend-h'pof no ruar; but ha did possess in a remarkable degree that n iesciible something known as pers. nil inagtieli.-m People were drawn to him by the simple charm of his personality?men liked Lim snd lovtd him because they could cot ??

In hr professional life, as already re marked, he was noted for his wisdoo io medical science and for his skill iD its practice. He was not a specialist unless it were lawful to say he was sich aloDg many lines. He wss equally successful in hi3 treatment of a variety of diseases. His early advantages in hospital and camp were a potent factor in his success and were manifest throughout his career.' He had few equals and probably nc superior outside the larger cities. Dr. Fox was a conspicious exception fco the rule that familiaiity with suf feriDg makes men indifferent to it. His sympathy for his patients was prove* bi?l throughout his exlensiv* practice, and this, as well as his skill, made his coming a benediction in the homes of the affl cted. He never gave needless pain by knife or drug. The generous nature of the man was largely revealed in the physi cian's bills. With his acknowleged ability his pecuniary success might have been far greater than it was had he been disposed to be exacting. His charges were always moderate and full many a sufferer has found relief at bis hands for which no compensation was demanded or expected It was a rule of his professional life never to charge a minister of the gospel for services to himself o* family. He has been known to have as many as eight preachers' families in his practice at the same time and in this way he has been probably the most liberal contributor to ministerial support in the entire community. But bis life was^ not all professional in its iifluence and helpfulness. Whatever concerned men interested him. His was a public spirit which found expression io ways and means for improving the conditions of his fellows. He was by no means a novice in business life. He read, thought and studied the business interests of the people and exerted himself in behalf of 'those among whom he lived. As was to be expected he wa3 the friend and patron of education. For fifteen years previous to his death he had been a trustee of his home school and two of his sons were at college when notified of their father's death. As a State South Carolina was his mother and he loved her with the ardor cf a devoted son. Like every true patriot he despised government a' shams and felt a righteous contempt for demagogues and place hunters. His political sympathies were as wide as the national domain. He was a citizen of the United States; but, like most men ' who wore the gray," he couldn't empty his heart of its warm affection for ''.he cause" I which was drowned in a ilood of patriotic blood. For him there was in the Stars and Bars a glory which time nor circumstance can ever dim A.t the time of bis death he was commander of Cimp James Conner, U. C V. But perhaps, after all, that which most endeared him to the hearts? that which constituted the crowning glory of his character and largely made bira what he was in other respects, was his domestic nature, his home love and home life. His devo tion to his fam.ly was a thing of beauty. They were in his heart and thought by day and by night. Every ambition of his life were eubordiI nated to that of providing for thc-m the requisites cf a life of honor and usefulness. This family affection was by no means limited to wife and children. His veneration f jt bis parents was almost religious in its sanctity and devotion. In an ac quaintaDce cf more than thirty years this writer fails to recall an instance j in which be referred to father and : motner except, in terms or respect, j hoDor and warmest affection, Happy j parents!

A "Fus X" Romance. Co the Editor of the Dispatch: Oa December 27th, 1898, I went wilb my good old friends, Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Beard, publishers of the Carolina News, to Portsmouth, Va , | aod over to Norfolk, thence down to : old Virginia Beech. While sitting ; on the beech, watching the rolling | waves of the mighty Atlantic, 1 con J eluded to write a few lines and put j them in a bottle which I had in my | pocket. I do not know why that bottle was in my packet, nevertheless it was there, and about empty. So you see, I had very little more use 'or it, knowing that the Sea cold not ->rase the Palmetto tree and letters VS C," found on all ' fa98 X'' botles, I thought I would try a new way of advertising this great product of our State. A strip of paper containing the following words was placed in the bottle j ' Norfolk, Va., Doc. 28.h, 1898 J This bottle was thrown in for an ad| veitisement. If found address us j and be rewarded. Mr. and Mrs. C. j L Beard, editors of the Carolina News, Chapin, S. C, S. J. Clark, i Chapin, S. C." | The bottle was then securely cork| ed and cast into the sea, to float j wherever the winds and waves might | carry it. i After fifteen months, when the inj cident had almost been forgotten, I | received the following lettei: ivt?:.. Ti -1 - J f A j oil. iUC CUU1UOCU ouup nao tuuuu j by me, February 28.h, 1900, on | Whale Biy, South shore South | HamptoD, Fist Bermuda, and ac! cording to the desire of the perI formers, I concluded to send it on. j The bottle which contained it was : well covered with seaworme; and i considering the time it was in the | water the cork had done very good work. Ycurs humble, William Y. Swan, South Hampton East Whale Bay, South Shore." The scrip of paper that was enj closed in the bottle was returned i with this letter, and is now in my possession. The letter also, on anj other page had the following: "The [ reward, if little or greater will be ; thankfully received, as I am always | needy." He evidently hopes to get an other bottle having in it, not a i ? j piece of paper, but the original con, tents. It will be seen that the bottle was ! in the sea just 14 months, then con^ veniently turned up on an island, just where it could be found, and the finder notified the sender. If any ' one can start a Dispensary adventure : to beat this, we would be glad to ! have it. S. J.

Diagnosing Case. Helen R. Girdmer, iu Harper, relates this medical anecdote as one : she heard from a surgeon's assistant, a trained nurse. Il was a Japanese boy. He was as solid as a little ox, but be told Dr. G. that he'd been taking a homeopathic presetiption for a cold. That was enough for Dr. G. A red flag iu the van of a bovine animal is nothi ing to the word "homee'patby" to Dr. G He q lestioutd the little Jap, who could not speak good English, aud had the national inclination to agree with whatever you say. ' Did you ev.jr spit blood asked Dr. G. by and by, after be could fiud nothing else wrong except the little cold for which the homa- ipathic doctor was treating the boy. "Once,*' replied the youthful vie tim. "Aha! we are getting at the root of this matter now," said Dr. G. "Now tell me, tiuly. Did you spit much blood ?*' "Yes, sir, a good deal." The doctor sniffed. He always knew that a homeopathic humbug cold not diagnose a case, and would be likely to get just about as near the facts as a light cold would come to tuberculosis. "How long did this last?" he innniroil nf fVio cmilinrr tinr V|UU wU UA LUC ULUliiUg WVJ "I think? it eeems to me? "A half hour queried the doctor, "twenty minutes ?" "I think so. Yes, sir. About Half an hour?twenty minutae,'' lesponded the obliging youth. I heard that talk. Common sense told me the boy's lungs were all right, but it was none of my business. So I watched him treated, off and on, for lung trouble for over a month before I got a chance to ask him any questions. Then I asked, incidentally: "What made you spit that blood that time, Gihi f *'T I'nni T rmorht. fn swallow bim," he replied, wide eyed aod anxious. ''Dentist pull tooth. He says to me, 4Spit blood here'. I do like he tell me. Your doctor say vtr' bad for lungs spit blood. Next time I swallow him.51 If the Baby is Cutting Teeth Be sure and use that old and well tried remedy, Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup for children teething. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, cures wind colic and is the best remedy for diarrhoea. Twenty-live cents a bottle. It is the best of all. For the Horses.

The average vitality of cotton seeds is 93 per cent, that is to say, 93 out of every 100 seeds will germinate, this year, however, according to experiments by the agricultural department at Washington with seed of last year's crop, only 73 per cent of the seeds hate enough vitality to come up; so if you want a good stand of cotton tbis year, you must use more seed than usual by say 20 per cent. Will Make It Lav/. Congressman Sioke3 has again introduced bis bill to provide for the free delivery of mail along the star routes. Although South Carolina is now assured of this convenience during the next four years, it is merely through a rule of the department instead cf by statute law. Dr. Stokes is, therefoie, anxious to have the matter clinched, so as to prevent possible trouble hereafter. Eczema I The Only Cure, Eczema is more than a skin disease, and 110 skin remedies can cure it. The doctors are unable to effect a cure, and their mineral mixtures are damaging to the most powerful constitution. i"he whole trouble is In the blcod. uvnd Swift's Specific is the only remedy which can reach such deep-seated bloc d diseases. Eczema broke out on my daughter, and'con* tinued to spread until ^ her head was entirely covered. She was treated ty several good doctors, Wj5T gffi but grew worse, and the dreadful disease spread to her face. She was ^ taken to two celebrated - health springs, but re ceivedno benefit. ManyiJ2w5k8e5?*v patent medicines were taken, but without result. until we decided to try S. S. S.,and by the time the first bottle was finished, her head began to heal. A doten bottles cured her com* uleteiy and left her skiii perfectly smooth. She Is now sixteen years old. anchhas a magnificent growth of hair. Not a signoof the dreadful disease has ever returned. H. T. Shokk. 2701 Lucas Ave.. St. Louis, Mo. Don't expect local applications of aoaps and salves to curcEczema. They reach only the surface*, while the disease comes from within. Swift's Specific S.S.S.% Blood is the only cure and will reach the must obstinate case. It is far ahead of all similar remedies, because it cures cases which are beyond their reach. S. S.

THE CUSTOM HOUSE SCANDAL j The ColSeotor and His Deputy V/ill Be Proven to be Guilty. Columbia. Evening Iloeonl. The governor on April G.b, received a long telegram from Magistrate Moore, of Charleston, in reference to the liqior stoted in the custom house. It was reported that the collector was to turn over certain l:quor3 to the original owner in New Yoik. Mr. Muore wrote the collector about it, but the stuff will be held pending the report of thespeci; 1 rAAMirv spent and the decision of the department. Magistrate Moore adds that there is nothing new in the situation, but that it will be proven by the United States authorities that both Collector Tulbert and bis deputy, Ostendoiff, are implicated in storing the liq ior. ? ^ , The Best in the World. We believe Ohambetlain's Cough llemedy is the best in the world.

Sam Jones, the inimitable, whose quaintness of style is equaled only by the accuracy of his definitions and descriptions, gave in a recent sermoD, the following beautiful story, in which he so charmingly portrayed the most lovely thing on earth. We do not remember to have seen anywhere a prettier picture than this: 4,An angel was sent down from heaven one day to bring back the most beautiful thing oa earth. He hunted long and carefully, saw a bed of full blown American Beauty roses, lovely beyond comparison, and he gathered an armful and started ic return to his home above. [ "A9 he soared into the air he saw a babj's smile and, filled by araptur ous admiration at the sight, returned to take it too. By its side he discovered a mother's love, and with all three in his arms he mounted to the place beyond the skies. "Just outside the pearly gates the spirit paused for a moment, and lo! the roses were withered and the babj's Bmile had vanished, but strong and faithful and serenely beautiful as ever, mother's love remained; and he cast the others aside and took this and laid it at the feet of his Mastei a9 the most lovely and lasting thing on eaith." *- .
