j between Lexington and Columbia on
Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock, after
a severe illness of several days, aged
75 years. She is survived by her husband
and several children. Three of
her sons are Lutheran ministers.
Mrs. Roof was a most estimable
woman, widely known and much beloved
by all who knew her. She was
a sincere and devout Christian, beinf
a member of Mt. Hebron Method.st
church.
Her remains were laid to rest in the
family burying ground near her late
home on Tuesday afternoon at 3
o'clock, the last sad rites being performed

several times abound her neck, nearly
killed Lillian Porcher, aged eight, of
Port Washington, Pa., while she was
at play during recess at school.
The child was choked unconscious
and is in a critical condition. A
teacher pulled the snake from the
chiid's neck and killed it. The girl
and a companion were playing in a
building in the school yard when the
snake dropped from the rafters and
coiled around her neck. She tried tc
dash the reptile to the ground but it
gripped tightly and she fell struggling.
The other child danced up and
down in horror an 1 screamed at the
top of her voice. This attracted the
teacher. When the latter entered the
building the Porcher child, black in
the face, was unconscious. The teacher
seized the snake by the neck and
u iwinding it whipped it to pieces
against the wall.
Get School Books Here.
Teachers from all over the count}'
are reminded that Tbe Bazaar is headquarters
for school books?the netv
text boobs now being in stock. Teachers,
when you come to the court
house, don't forget to buy your books
at The Bazaar.
The Dispatch Must Live.
] Again we beg to remind our friends
| that all notices relating to money
making enterprises for church, school
or any other cause, are charged for as
advertising at one cent a word. All
cards of thanks, for any purpose
whatsoever, are charged for at the
rate of one cent a word. It would
save us a good deal of trouble and
embarrassment if you would just
count the words and send the money
along with your "copy," as it hardly
pay9 us to keep books on these little
items. Yet in the aggregate they
mean a considerable loss to the paper
if not collected, and they are ao easiy
overlooked.

that I will apply to Geo. S. Drafts,
Judge of Probate for Lexington

Congressman Brantley, of the eleventh
district, has arrived at his home
in Brnnswick and vrill remain until
congress meets in December.
4'As to presidential candidates,"
said the congressman, "there isn't
much new that I can say. At the
present time it seems that Gov. Harmon,
of Ohio, and Gov. Wilson, of
New Jersey, are the two m03t prominent
ones. I am disposed to think
that as between these two a majority
of the Democrats in Washington arc
inclined to Harmon. He is the more
conservative of the two and offers tlio
most hope not only of success but cf
preserving the old line Democracy."
