Some days previous j to that date Congressman Lever left for the scene of conflict at Washington so as to be on the field in ample time. Mr. F. F. Herndon, his private secretary, left for the same place Saturday. Mr. Herndon has been so j earning here for some months and daring hi9 stay has impressed our people very favorable. Ge is an exV celleot youog man of pleasing address and of culture and high attain1*7 1-J idhpls. ue were guu iu umo uiuj among as and were truly sorry to see him leave. The President's reply to the protest of CbarleBtonian's against the appointment of the negro, Dr. Gram, as eolleetor of the port, clearly indicates that Mr. Brosevelt is color blind and cannot, distinguish the difference between an Anglo-Saxon and a coon. Mr. G I. Cuooingbaro, United States Marshal, died at his home in Charleston last week. He was a I millionaire and a Republican. Judge Brawley has appointed Dr. V. C. Clayton until the President makes Lee appoiiiimtjuu Major C. J. C. Ha (bod, clerk of the United State* District Couit of $outh Carolina, is dead. His successor has not yet been appointed and applications for the position are bow in order. The extra of the Newberry Observer containing the President's message was the first to reach this cffitt beating the daily papers of the S ate by 7 hours. New Brookland Items. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please allow me space in your valuable columns for a few dots from our thriving little town. Our people are generally healthy and contented. Our town is on a boom. The mystic music of the saw and hammer is continually heard. There is now under construction a number of new buildings en 3 still more in contemplation. No town in the State can boast of more ohurches, better ministers than we can, to our population. The people of this town are of a sturdy, honest and hospitable type; no stranger thrown amongst her people ever regretted their stay. Her benevolenc?cannot be surpassed. Our physicians are the very best and all of the leadtDsr secret orders are - represented in onr town. In the near future we will show the world what pluck and patience can do for a community. We hare flourishing schools at this place, doing a great work dispensing knowledge to the young and tender minus. Oyster and box parties are the order of the day, the profis of which are going to good causes, such as missions and othtr charitable work. The most auspicious thing in view is the construction of the Masonic Temple, which when finished will be one of the best equipped buildings of its kind to be found anywhere. The size of the building is 58x28 feet, 2 stories high, a nice store on the bottom floor; the upper floor will be used exclusively by the Masonic fraternity. B'cently Sinclair Lodge, No. 154, A. F. M, held " *- *2hhk3hbk* a special communication for the purpose of conferring the W. M. degree on two candidates. We had with us several brethren from Columbia, among them were Bros Barren and DuPre. Our lodge has done considerable work this year and still more in store for us in the future. We will have a grand jubilee when we dedicate our new hall. Well, in conclusion, will say hurry up the trolly cars at your end of the line so you can ride down to see us. witness. Pecan Culture. To the Editor of the Dispatch: So many people have written me about pecans and their culture until I take this mode of answering all letters. I would advise planting the paper shell varieties, medium size, as I find the trees bear more prolific than the large paper shells. I have now six trees bearing, three large paper sbellB and three medium. I gathered fr: m one tree of the large j paper shell forty pounds; from a tree of the medium size nuts [both trees planted the same time] one hundred and twenty pounds. My trees are fifteen years old and I have them planted around the yard for Bbade trees. I would advise every one to plant the trees or nets and then when 1 or 2 years old transplant to rich bottom land not (wet] swampy land. My other trees are not bearing yet. Dig a deep hole and put in rich top earth or a few handsfuls of | stable manure well rotted, stand the tree in middle of hole and throw in rich dirt and pack tight with your feet. Da not let the roots get dry when transplanting. The pecan will thrive where the hickory nut grows and I find a ready sale for all nuts. The trees seedlirg will begin to bear at eight years old. After the trees are six years old it will take care of itself if it has grown as it should. Keep the ground free from weeds and grass the first few years. Should anyone want any other information I will be glad to give it so far as I can. t B. N. Bodie. Leesville, S. C, Nov. 24, 02.
