by Messrs. Roof & Barre to
olean out a well at their lumber plant

examination as to the safety of the

to the bottom of the well. He caught
on his feet and except for the thrilling
experience, was uninjured.

father, who is in quite feehle health.'
Frank is at home wherever you put

much ease as he can punch "Uncle M
Joe" Cannon in the national house,
when that official tries to block legis- m
lation that would benefit the people I
of his district and the county at large. V

Com Whiskey Out. ?
It is claimed that nearly all of the _
corn whiskey is out at the State dis- C
pensary in Columbia. This being the ?
case the counties that have not al- 2
ready purchased their supply will have C
to wait at least 30 days before they C
can make any purchases, as the Carey- 2
Cothran law says that advertisements C
must be published 30 days before. C
county boards can buy outside ?f the 2
State. C
634 Boutes in South Carolina.' 2
There are now in operation in the
State a total of 634 routes, divided as ?
follows: 1st district 26; 2d district 48; 0
3d district 135; 4th district 121; 5th 2
district 137; 6th district 70, and the V
7th district 98. 0

dry goods firm of Columbia, have just C
opened their stock bf spring and sum- 2
mer goods, by far the prettiest and J
most comprehensive line ever shown &
by this reliable firm. Their line of 2
millinery embraces every idea known J
to woman's art. Go to Wm. Piatt & f
Co., while shopping in tne city.
Well Snown Negro Dead.
Walter Perry, a well known and respected
negro, died in Columbia Monday.
His remains were brought to
Lexington; his old home, where they
were interred in the colored cemetery
yesterday. Perry was a quiet and
inoffensive negro, and was for many
years a resident of Lexington, where
he followed the painters' trade. Excessive
drink caused his downfall
which affected his mind, and he was
carried to the hospital for the insane
on Thursday where he died. *

is extended to my customers and
the public generally.

Did Their Duty.
To the Editor of The Dispatch:
When the senate killed the state dispensary
and passed the Carey-Cotbran
local option bill they performed
their duty. Now if the goo^ people
of the state will vote to dry all the
counties, they will then have performed
their duty. Then if the socalled
church members and Christians
keep out of the whiskey business,
the blind-tiger men will close up
and go home, for over two-thirds of ^
the men in South Carolina are of the
so-called church member class. Re
member, from a bushel of corn the g
distiller gets four gallons of whiskey,
which retails for $16.80; the farmer
gets 50 cents, the United States government
gets $4.40, the railway company
gets $1.00, the manufacturer gets
$4.00, the drayman gets 15 cents, the
retailer gets $7.00 the consumer gets
drunk, the wife gets hungry, the children
get rags; the man that votes
license gets what? Woe unto him
that giveth his neighbor drink, that
Sutteth the bottle to him and maketh
im drunk.
I hope all the boys and men^ who
read this will take my advice and stop
drinking for always.

The Judge Uses Forceful Lan- guage.
Judge W. B. Simmons of Fincastle,
Va., told the reporter that L. & M.
Paint was used on his residence in ft
1882, and held its color well for 21 d;
years; he furthermore said that 3 years tl
ago he was induced to use another tr
paint and is sorry he did, because the a
other paint didn't make good. The si
Judge will now always use L. & M., la
because he knows if any defect exists w
in L. & M. Paint the house will be re- fc
painted for nothing. b<
The L. & M. Zinc hardens the\L. & b<
M. White Lead and makes L. & M. w
Paint wear like iron for 10 to 15 years.
Actual cost of L. & M. about ?1.20 ir
per gallon. b<
Donations of L. & M. made to s?
churches.
