Upper Saluda Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Mr. Editor and kind readers, I
visited Lexington and beard from
some of her most prominent eons
that the trolley line through thet
town was in sight?we rejjice with
you.
The farmers are making fine progress
now. Everything is in a mad
rush to "get there." Some of the
farmers have yoked their yearlings to
the plow; some don't scruple to plow
a while after dark. The women and
children have come into the rush.
All trash and rubbish is piled and
goes up in volumes of fiime and
smoke.
Two old veterans have passed away
sense my last writing, J. YY. Talbert,
April 4tb, and Lindsey Dominick,
April 5 b. One by one tbey
cross over. Ol! Jesus receive tbem.
General news is scarce here. We
?
note, with pleasure, the reunion at
Columbia in May. Old veterans I
hope that many of the brothers will
meet each other there. Oh! bow I
love to meet you old vets, knowing
that our time is short on earth. Let
us live in the service of Christ in our
last days as faithfully as we lived in
the service of cur country, way back
in the sixties.
No planting has been done in this
section.
My weather prophet is trying to
forecast a dry spell.
The small grain crops promises to
be above the average.
Cotton acreage will not be increased.

farmers are going to experiment wi h
vegetable crops to some extent.

Human Blood Marks.
A tale of horror was told by marks of
human blood in the home of J. W. Williams,
a well know merchant of Bac,

had severe hemorrhages of the lungs,
and was near deatli when I began taking
Dr. King's Xew Discovery. It completely
cured me and I have remained
well ever since." It cures Hemorrhages,
Clironic Coughs, Settled Colds and Bronchitis,
and is the only known cure for
Weak Lungs. Every bottle guaranteed !

has beeu rc-elected a? superintendent
of the city schools. The State says
of him:
"Mr. E. S Dreher, who has been
connected with the schools since they
were six years old?3ix years as a
teacher and principal and 11 as
i-i. J L I A
su peri uieuu em?was cuuipBuicuiru
by a unanimous election with an increase
of salary to fcfce position he
now holds. Mr. Dreher has done
splendid work in the schools, aDd his
re-election will give the greatest satisfaction
to a large majority of the
patrons of the schools. He has the
interest of the schools truly at heart.

Crowding Our Country?30,000
Aliens This Week.
New York, April 19?Tbe unprecedented
Spring influx of immigrants
arriving in the port of New York continues
without signs of abatement,
and it is estimated by the Ellip Island
officials that no less than 50,000 foreigners
will have arrived here by the
end of the ensuiDg week.
Immigration figures show that exactly
2S.556 immigrants have arrived
in New Yjrk since Sunday morning.
Of that number fully 10,000 have
already been discharged from Eilie
Island, while 5,000 more who remain
on the island will be discharged today.
Nearly 14,000 more are still
held on the ships because of the lack
cf room on Ellis Island.
A large number of steamships are
due to arrive this week, and advance
reports show that each is heavily
laden with steerage passengers.
The crowd surrounding the Ellis
Island ferry at the battery ha9 been
so large for the past two days that
an extra detail of police has been
stationed there.
The Richest Man in the World.
The richest man in the world can not
have his kidneys replaced nor live without
them, so it is important not to neglect
these organs. If Foley's Kidney Cure is
taken at the first sign of danger, the
symptoms will disappear and your health
will be restored, as it strengthens and
builds up these organs as nothing else
will. Oscar Bowman, Lebanon, Ky.,
writes: "I have used Foley's Kidney
Cure and take great pleasure in stating
it cured me permanently of kidney disease,
which certainly would have cost
me my life." The Kaufmann Drug Co.
A Former Citizen Dead.
Mr. George G. Etberedge, well
known to many of our people aDd a
former citizen of Bateaburg, and of
this county, died of apoplexy in tbe
Columbia Hospital, on Monday 16tb,
after a continued illness.
If we all bad our lives to live over
again we would probably make a
worse job of it.
