The Lexington Dispatch. ' Wednesday, January 15. 1902. The higher we go the higher up seems to be the place we want tc reach. Character in a young man is everything?especially if his father isn't able and willing to pay his debts. Senator Tillman spent his vacation lecturing out West. If he is not a commercial Democrat there are none. If a man dosen't know how and when to bridle his tongue it is self evident that he is short on horse sense. Judge Robert Faliigant, of Savannah, Ga, died recently. He was a prominent man in his county and State. Miss Mary F. WilKins, ine auinor of many novels, and Dr. Charles Freeman, of Randolph, Mass., were recently married. The darkest hour in the history of any young man is when be&its down to study how to get money without honestly earning it. When a bachelor thinks of his mother he wants to get married; ^ when he thinks of his sisters he wants to wait awhile. Rev. H. H. Covington, of Sumter, S. C., has been called to St. Paul's church, Charleston. The Methodists are not the only itinerant preachers. The dykes at Clemson College, S. C., were broken by the recent freshet and the bottom laDds were flooded. They can be repaired before planting time. t Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago, says the wine room is the "vestibule of bell." The Mayor expects to run . for President on the Prohibition ticket. Admiral Schley will make a South 2 ? TT^ mill AA(TA?o] /^OTTQ em tour. xie win tspcuu ffcciai ubjd in Savannah and then visit other cites. He will be ont about two months. The railroad bands in the arid districts of Utah are living on the meat of wild horses. If we had to eat horse meat, we would prefer the wild horse. Charleston, S. C, was the fifth city in the United States in 1800, being led only by New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Baltimore. As late as 1830 it was the sixth city. The New York post office has been informed by the .Post Office department that all mail matter is mailable to Porto K;co in the same manner as to any part of the United States. The Walla-Walla, a vessel of the Pacific Coast Steamship company, collided with an unknown vessel leconly not for from Mendocino. It was believed that 30 to 50 people lost their lives. Secretary Hester of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange says that the total movement of cotton since September 1, is 0,726,694 bales against 6,651,514 bales last year, and 0,029,|"1|> .1-- u I J.U loe year ueiuie. Today, January 35, Mobile, Ala, is celebrating her two hundredth anniversary. The town was established at twenty seven-Mile Bluff in 1702 and moved to its present site in 1711 It is said that Senator Ilanna has control of the State cf Ohio. His candidate for Speaker of the House was elected. The So. Ca. Cirolina Spartan says "he is a man of remarkable ability and forethought/' The following slander on the new town of Saluda is goiDg the rounds of the weekly press: "Saluda is a new countv town blazed out of the woods and the stumps on the streets has the appearance of a new ground. A few days ago a man was arrested for 8wearing on the streets of that city. The man was indignant, and put in a plea that a man was excused for cursing in a new ground." ^ Greenville. Tenn. I have thoroughly convinced myself that Dr. Baker's Blood and Liver Cure is the finest medicine made for Indigestion and Constipation. (I have tried them all) and was cured by the use of this medicine, after all others had failed. I most cheerfully and unhesitatingly endorse it. Yours truly, H. N. Baker, Mayor.

Gorman aod Chairman Murry Van diver, of the Democratic State Central committee, were oo tho "Domnf^ratio nominees for United States Senator and State Treasurer, respectively, at the Democratic caucus held tonight.

C., recently. There was some fear that important industries would have to stop until coal could i be shipped in from Virginia. Hap- ' pily the situation was relieved by the timely arrival of a shipment of coal, and the necessity of stopping the i industries was avoided. Too Quick 021 Trigger.
