and was himself painfully burned.
There was something like 500 bushels
of corn in the barn, the greater

was no insurance on the building and

A Very Fins Esoord.
But few solicitors m this State oi
any other State can boast of having
made as fine record during 1900 a$
Solicitor George Bell Timmerman
But George is too modest to boast; he
simply made his report to the attor
ney general reviewing the work of the
' past year. The report shows thai
out of the 88 cases raded conviction;
were secured in 73.
Lexington leads I * the amount oi
work, Saluda next and Edgefield la9t.
Saluda lead9 in the number of convictions;
Lexington next and Edgefield
last.
At two terms of the Saluda court
conviotions were secured in every
case, while the same results were obtained
at one term of the Lexington
court.
Mr. Timmerman is one cf the
youngest prosecuting attorneys in the

older and more experienced lawyers
might well be proud.
Here's congratulations to you,
George!
John Jacobs Frse Again.
John Jacobs, the white man who
was captured at Offerman, Ga., cn
Tuesday at the instigation of Sheriff
P. H. Corley, of this county, and who
is wanted here upon the charge of
burglary, broke iail 011 Wednesday at
12 o'clock, and succeeded in making
his escape, according to a telegram
received by Sheriff Corley from Chief
of Police Henry Tyre, of Offerman.
Sheriff Corley had secured requisition
papers from Gov. Ansel for Jacobs,
and was in Columbia for the purpose
of leaving for Offerman at the
time the message was received. It is
understood that the chief of police
has the shotgun and bird dog, which
Jacobs had with him at the time of
his arrest, and they will be returned
to their owner here.
On the night of November 24 last
Jacobs and Wade Watts entered the
home of Mrs. Luia Watts, the wife of
Wade Watts, near Shuicr's Siding,
in the lower part of the county, and
stole a shotgun, the property of
Watts's stepson. They macio their escape,
going to Georgia, and nothing
was heard from either of them until
Watts returned to his home a few
days ago. He was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Miller, confessed to me
crime and told where he left Jacobs.
A telegram was sent to the officers at
Offerman and the arrest of Jacobs
followed.
Death of ivant Boss Fort.
Aunt Rose Fort, one of the oldest
colored women in this town, died at
the home of her daughter on Friday
morning at 4 o'clock, and was buried
on Saturday morning in the Fort burying
ground near the Baptist church.
She was the faithful servant of the
Fort family, from which she derived
her name,'and was nearly 100 years
old.
Saved At Death's Door.
The door of death seemed ready tc
open for Murray W. Ayers, of Transit
Bridge N. Y., when his life was won
derfully saved. "I was in a dreadfu;
condition," he writes, "my skin was
almost yellow; eyes sunken; tongue
coated; emm aciated from losing 4(
pounds, growing weaker daily. Virulent
liver trouble pulling me dowu tc
death in spite of doctors. Then thai

lost and now am well and strong.'

troubles they're supreme. 50c at Kaulmaun

Checking1 Up Dispensary.
Mr. G. II. Charles, former bookkeeper
of the State dispensary, was
hero on Saturday checking up the
books oi the County Dispensary .board,
When seen by a Dispatch man, Mr,
Charles stated that he had been in different
counties of the state on th
same mission, and in all of his experience
he had never found a bettei
kept set of books.
The Lexington board is ready anc
anxious to wind up the whole business,
but under the governor's instructions,
it may be several months
before the business is wound up.
Tbe busiest and mightiest little thing
that ever was made is Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets. They dc
the work whenever you require theii
aid. These tablets change weakness
into strength, listlessuess into energy,
gloominess into joyousnesa. Their action
is so gentle ono don't realize thej
