A Prominent Educator Dead.
Miss Nellie Chapman, a well
known lady educator of this State,
and a daughter of the noted South
Carolinia historian, John A. Chapman
of Newberry, died at the home
of her sister, Mrs. W. I. Herbert; in
that couDb: on October 2nd. Miss
Nellie was a highly gifted young woman
of exballed Christian character.
Some years since she was a valued
member of the faculty of Leesville
college, in this county, in which community
she was highly esteemed for
i * i
ner luieueciuanty, uer uunuie
and ber refinement. O'er her bier we
drop this lilly in honor of the purity
of her spotless life.
One day last week the Columbia
Evening Record asserted that the
"Tillman trial" would be a windfall
for Lexington. Our people have so
far failed to experience the "windfall."

To the Editor of the Diepatcb:
Your humble scribe moat respectfully
sends a few dots from this
section.
Everything quiet and everybody
gathering, houBeing and making
ready their crops for market. All
agree that this has been a poor crop
year. Cotton turning out pooily and
going down in price these things
makes the farmers low spirited.
The Fair is close on hand and
from what I see and hear very little
interest is felt for the Fair or circus.
There has been a protracted meeting
going on at Irmo the past week.
It was pretty well attended from
this section. Young beaux with
their best girls made things lively
and certainly with theie nice turn
outs accompanied by handsome
young ladies were certainly pleasing
to the eye. Made an old widower

are not like they used to be. Now a
fellow gets his best girl in his buggy
and from the way he travels it seems
that he is as anxious to get rid of
her, as he is to start for he covers
the distance in a short time, of course
there can't be much said. Same
way returning,a fellow is awakened
by a roar, thinks it is thunder, rushes
to the window, looks out, sees the
stars shining and the moon respondent
in her brightness. Just there
he remembers that it is Mr. and
Miss returning from church.
It appears to me if I was in his
place I would be loath to part with
my companion and drive slower, but
then I reckon if I was young again I
would keep up with the fashion and
do just as they do.
Another topic at present, which
nearly concerns us all, is good roads.
Many suggestions are proposed and
if we will come together we can have
good roads. The public roads in
this section (there are several) in
some places are in a bad condition.
