TI TTTJO I Oil I C 1 U 1 1 O LIVCI r While nearly every town and community in the State have had one or more cases of smallpox, Lexington has not had a single case. This speaks elcquently for the healtbfulnessof the place and the home seeker should make a note of this fact. The new firm of Bates & Walker, of Columbia, are reaching out after business. They want the Lexington trade and have adopted the surest means of getting it by using the columns of the Dispatch. This is a new firm and a new store, filled from floor to ceiling with the choicest products of the loom and manufactories. Their stock is fresh and new and of the latest designs, patterns and tvoo-troQ in drv cnnds. XVUIVV) ^ WW ?W? J D 7 clothing and shoep, while their prices are the lowest. Call on them when in the city and examine their stock. Mr. James H. Shell, a prominent merchant of Peak, died suddenly at his home Thursday night. He was 52 years old and leaves a wife and one child.

If a shoe wears well and retains it shape until the end, that shoe is cheap at any price. You can find just such shoes at Lever's, The Shoe Man, Columbia. He advertises a first class shoe at a second hand price in this issue and those having shoes to purchase should call on Mr. Lever when in that city, or write to him. See his advertisement on first page for address. Careful and prompt attention is given mail orders. Church goers will be pleased to learn that it has been decided to hold two night services in each moDth in St. Stephen's Lutheran church. The morning service on the fourth Sunday has been discontinued and instead a night service will be held on this Sunday commencing at 7:30. On the first Sunday of each month services will be held as heretofore at 11 a. m., and in addition an evening service will be held at 7:30. La*t Monday was salesday in March and the day for the court of ' common pleas to reconvene after the recess. These two attractions drew quite a large crowd of visitors to town and during the day our streets presented an animated scene with their surging mass of humanity. There was only one piece of property advertised to be sold and that was the land in the case of Caroline Wingard and others vs. James W. Wingard and others, which was purchased by J. E. Oswald for $423. 1 The question of education or no education for a boy or girl often turns upon a very small matter. A few acres more land must be bought The last crop was not good. Labor is high and hard to get and the boy's work is too valuable, and before the 1 parent knows it the boy has come to manhood without the preparation to make an intelligent citizen. Iave6t in the boy and not in land. Labor to turn out intelligent citizens and not such large crops of cotton for other people to set the price on. Send the boy to school. Enlarge the world for him. Inspire him with the great of the world. Asking Pardon. A petition was circulated in town Monday, which was numerously signed, asking executive clemency for Mr. J. L Berry, who was convicted of killiDg one Johnson, at Batesbu?g, sometime ago. It will be remembered that young Whittle, the son of Sheriff Whittle of Saluda county, went to Batesburg to arrest Johnson. He located Johnson in Lexington county and wired for Berry, the town marshal of Saluda. In the attempt to take Johnson he was killed. On their trial at this place, Whittle swore he did the shooting and Berry had nothing to do with it. They were convicted of manslaughter and sentenced by Judge James Aldrtch to 5 jears in the penitentiary. Pending the appeal Whittle died of consumption, but before doiDg so made a dying declaration that he shot Johnson and Berry had nothing to do with the shooting. The Supreme Court has just handed down its decision affirming the finding of the Circuit Court and the friends cf Berry, both in Saluda and this county have circulated petitions asking Governor McSweeney to pardon him. Many of those who were active in the prosecution are takiDg a prominent part in Berrj's behalf. ? The Dispatch is read by over 5,000 people each week. Proceedings of Court. When we went to press last week, the trial was in progre-s in the case of M. W. Wright v-. Souibern R ilway Co. The result was a verdict of $1,200 in favor of the plaintiff Ou last Thursday came up the case of Martha L. Sbealy vs. The New York Life Insurance Company. Thi9 was an action to recover $2,000 ! policy on the life of herbusbsnd, D. P. Shealy. Mr. J. B. Wingard representing the plaintiff and Messrs. .Tones and Efird & Dreher, the de , fendant.

Nelson, Graham and J. S. Mailer for the defendant. Thi swas an sction to recover 500 acres of land on Congarc-e river, just above Old Granby, and in and around Cayce. The trial was very lengthy and closely contested. The verdict was in favor of the defendants. The third week of the present term of our court was convened at ten o'clock Monday morning. "LaGrippe" made its showing when the third week's jurors were called. The court being organized with twenty-eight present out of the thirty-six summoned. D. C.

The first case called was Cornelius R. Means, a negro, formerly of Fairfield county, but now of Charlotte, N. C , against The Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Railroad. Me sere. J. E. McDonald, G. T. Graham and P. H. Nelson for plaintiff and W. H. Lyles, D. R Robinson and ESrd & Dreher for defendant. The action is for $1,000 damages for personal injury alleged to have occurred at Union depot in Columbia about two years ago. The trial consumed the entire day, i and the verdict, which was in favor of the Railroad, was rendered about dark. Tuesday morning came up the fast* r>f N R "Rartiev vs. Wm. Mitel ell, a9 Administrator of lbe E-tate of E. E. Fort, upon a nurse bill for $160. The case was brought by i Messrs. Efird & Dreher and defended by Mr. Strother for the estate. The verdict was for $110 in J favor of the plaintiff. A novel case to come up was entitled J. T. Miller vs. Middleburg 1 Cotton Mills. The case was brought by Mr. Strother before Magistrate 0. B. Addy, and was tried by him at < Batesburg on September 20th laet. Miller was a weaver and for certain 1 reasons ceased work, claiming $7.02 then due him. Magistrate Addy rendered judgment against the Mill for this amount and cost, and iiom this judgment the case was appealed to the Circuit Court. The company, having paid Miller's board bill, was given credit therrfor, and the judg- 1 ment of the Court was for $5 99 against the company, with the costs against the plaintiff. i * e Obituary. Mr. Georg Frey, a native of this j county, but who has made Columbia j his homa for some years, died at his I residence in that city on last Monday. He was born in the neighborhood where Mr. John M Caughman now resides, and was the son of Mr. Abram Frey.

A.C Advertise in the Dispatch. Tribute to the Memory of D. D. D. Mitchell. It i* with feelir-gs of peculiar sad cess tb-it. we record the death of D D D Mitchell. For nearly twenty years consecutively he stood at the head uf the educational interests of J our town and community. In 1881 be was elected chairman of the board of trustees of the Leesville English and Classical Institute, which position he filled until the said Institute wa* superceded by the Leesville College in 1800, when he was elected President of the board of directors of the Leesville College Company. This position he filled with credit to himself and fidelity to the cause cf Christian education until released by death on the 28th day of January, 1901. Amid the passing events which marked bis administration cf educational affiirp, there was always in hira a steadiness of purpose and cheerfulness of spirit which led on to broader fields and greater useful- \ ness. Ho stood ever ready to help iu the cp.use of right and counsel against the wrong'. I Much of the success which Leesville now enjoys in edutational matters is due to the life and labors of D. D D. Mitchell under God's bless icg. Therefore be it, let Resolved, That we bow submissively to Gjd's call which has taken our brother and co laborer, D. D. D. Mitchell, from us. 2nd Resolved, That we cherish his memory. 3rd Resolved, That a page in our minute book be devoted to his memory. 4th Resolved, That copies of this tribute and resolutions be given to the Lexington Dispatch, Summit News Letter and Batesburg Advocate for publication. f A P.
