Porter's Show tonight. Are you going? Peak Items. To the Editor of The Dispatch: The dry weather has been broken by a nice shower, which has refreshed things a great deal, although some more would be appreciated very much. All crops are backward on account of the drouth. Mr. Jake Hipp and Miss Sadie Eargle were happily married at the bride's home on last Sunday afternoon. They left immediately for Orangeburg, where they will make their future home. In last week's issue "Rix" made the statement that the Peak boy9 did not get to finish their ninth inning in the game that was played at Peak on last Saturday afternoon between the St. John and Peak boys and also that the bases were loaded with Peak men when the game was called off. I beg to correct this statement. The ninth ining wa9 finished, and the men that were on the bases were all out, altho. the scores did stand 8 to 7 in favor of Peak. I also want to impress upon * Rix" mind that the Peak players are no babies. Some of them have been playing for at least ten years. St. John Base Ball Plaj er. Peak, S. C., June 11, 1911.

There are many marvelous B stories of the indestructibility of luz, fl and the bone has been located by rival fl claimants to the honor of discovering fl it in various parts of the human skele- fl ton. fl The most careful searching of the last' fl published and amplest treatise on oste- ^fl ology will not result in the discovery ^fl of the bone called luz.
