Barnwell District was the mother of many good and great dicd. hut in hi* service to tllfe future Holland Nimnion* McTysire Was the greatest of ail. in that to him fa due the creation of Van derbilt University. In the last Christian Advocate Dr. James II.. Carlisle give* this account of the good Bishop's boyhood: Hi* first visit to Charleston, was with his father’s cotton wagon. HD share Of the wagon .load was the long pole that was tied above the cotton-balis. This he sold for a ‘•seven-pence.” with' which he bought a ginger cake. He walked down K,ing street, eating hi* morsel, happier,-we may suppose, thali ihe owners of the’ ifne stores that at tracted his wondering eyes. It was Saturday, and Jie said, in speaking about the trip, “My father wasagood Met hod Durand his horses were good Metbodist horses. Next dky, jftiey were not tti b« harnessed. My mother had put my Sunday clothes in a trunk. I put them on. and went to ciiurch. 1 believe I could find my wav to it today.” Years afterwards, in 1881 (perhaps this was his next visit to the city, after his wagon trip,) he went to Chai leeton, to preside over the Conference. On one of bis yearly visits to the Barnwell farm, he pointed to the re mains of an old log, and said to a friend,-‘Onee, when ahoy, 1 jumped over that log, to light on a pile of leaves. My good old aunt said to me’ ‘Holland, you ought not to have done that; there might havr been a snake under the leaves,’-! think of that very often. When holding Conference, If i feel like jumping on a pile of leaves, I think a snake juay be there! COUNTY APPOINTMENTS. Upon recommendation of Senator Bates Messrs W. J. Baxley, G. R. Dun bar and G.

On Sunday last a large congregation mot at the Columbia School House Tho Columbia Baptist Church was re organized as the fruits of the services that have been held there by Bro.

A GOOD NEW Hereafter the Governors of this State will have help in passing upon petD tioua for the pardons of convicts.

Barnwell County can claim with just pride tbe presence still In her good citizenship of six brothers who served in tho war between the States, moetly in Virginia, as true and faithful as in the days when they bore themselves so bravely on the march and facing the red battle line. They are the sons ol the late oViHiam Creech, and their names are Starling, George, W illiam. Richard, Lewis and James. Probably no other family In all tire Bouthlaud i-aD uuiatcx.no. many sur» vIvors*of tbe days that are forever gone. We hope that at the next Confederate Reunion held in the County that thexe six brothers be specially invited and. that a group photograph will be taken, for in all the brave pictures of the past there could be none’' more touching than thatof these heroes, now grtf^ing with the yedrs. *» SECOND WEEK JURORS.

In regard to the Dispen sary System of South Carolina'X have few word* in say. in DfiKT while I was on a visit to Carolina and waiting at tbe ctvpot in Biackville to take the train for Barnwell,—I noticed across the street JUL a sign attached. t<» » house Hie Igtters IHrfPENSARY, 4h(l having read a great deal about the Dispensary and its wa? of disposing liquor 1 took walk over to gnld Dispensai v ami gfiT to talking to the man behind the counter and I questioned him closely in regard to conducting the same. NEW ACTS. , Tho following Acts of local interest were passed at tho recent sesaion of the General Assembly : To authorize th«_holdlng of an elec tion in Fairfax School District as to the Issuing of J5.000 twenty year" bonds for purchasing site and erecting school buildings, maximum interest 6 per cent. To authorize an- election In Allen dale on the question of issuing for school and municipal purposes $20,- 000 thirty yfcar bonds, interest nor to exceed C per cent. No bond# in both the above to be sold for lessfban face value To reduce the-oumbor of trustees of; tho Barnwell Graded School District to seven, and to change the date of their election to May 15tli. •RIME UP, TASK DONE. The LegDIature^djourned sine die between three and four o’clock Sunday morning, after a full session of forty days. The work accomplished was mostly of a local cliaraidm^, amliori- zing the issuing of bonds for school buildings, and for taking up old bonds, granting railroad charters and raising a few salaries. No change was made in the Dispensary law. The House of Representative# Insisted- on the aboli tion of the State Dispensary It Colum bia while the Senate favored and stood to its retention, so nothing was done. W. O. Tatum of Orangeburg was unanimously reelected State Liquor Commissioner. J. M. Rawlinton, a farmer and member bf the House from Richland County, was elected Chair man of the State Board of Control, re ceiving 103 votes against 33 given to H. H. Evans, Chairman for several years Major John Black of Colum bia, formerly of C’oileton, and Mr. John B. Wylie of Chester were elected the oilier member# of tbe State Board. The Legislature was pretty liberal in appropriations. Confederate pension ers are to receive $225,000; for an ex htbitat the Jamestown, Va., Expos!- sition next year >20,000 goes; a f-1 000 start is to be made for estabiistilng a reformatory for bad boys, and the Con federate Home School or College in and tbe Charleston Guard IfllMiRffYs’* to be bought as an annex to tbe Cft&del.- - “' r<! ‘ ‘ ' • *" 1 •' THE BOLL WEEVIL COMING. W. G-Uunter of the Department of .Agriculture nt Washington, who has bcdijfiiO' command, of the scientDtsi. op posing the advance eastward of the boll weevil, admit# that the govern ment has failed to check Its progress. It was hoped that a broad timber belt In Louisiana, where no cotton was planted, would have been an effectual barrier, but the mischievous invader has grossed that and reached tho Miss»- Jsslppi ValleyJ making an advanee of fifty miles this season. And thereD no stopping it now, unless some effec tive new remedy is found, as it has been known to fly twenty-live nriles with a favorable wind. In the damp lands of Texas it lias •lone the greatest damage and the M iss- ppFxattp-r’Brmtx- "Witt • Fnlffrbiore than the higher and dryer States east.

Fron\ the information I obtained and what I saw I thought It was a grand thing and }rm the law that we ahou'.cT have in Texas and after mv arrival home I talked it up to the legislature Wren and' owe In' pSfttciilar Was very idiich In favor of it and several others took it under advisement. I •wrote sev eral articles in my home paper in re gard to the Hotilh Carolina law. and they were copied by several ■ county paper# speaking very favorably anil what could be obtained of said Di#- pensaiy law. Noarpn mv visit In 1905 to my old home in Barnwell l concluded to go to Charles ton on a few davs visit, and while there 1 again studied the Dis pensary business and found out that blind tigers were scattered all over the president Roosevelt wi missed a lot of trouble If bit and Longworth had made, match of it while, in Jth« cherry blOksouiv. uid have daughter runaway tid of the city, and really where the Dispensaries were there was very IRtlfr liquor, sold The blind tiger had gobbled them up. I was told by one bf tho constables that Lliey or one of them could not leave thHr office and go out on thw street* but what they were watched and the phones from bjlnd tiger to blind tiger would ftay, “watchout, the constables are on their round* ” I was told that the conductors on the street cars would give the signal to tho blind tigers to look out. Weil I came back td Texas n* much disgusted with the Dispensary law ns I was satisfied with it on my visit in 1899.. My people, after my return; made inquiry concerning the liquor law* in South Carolina and I told them a# far a# small towns are concerned it work# all right, but a# to large cities it was bad and very bad. Due man, an army friend of mine, asked me one dsy white In Charleston to let us go and get a oocktail. I told him was im possible tf buy liquor by the drink. Well, come along, and along I went, and fouiuLtutt that it could be bought h.jjhe drink, pint, quart, flask, barrel or.any aiuount wanied;---AH rmrhaa'to do wa*i£i pot down the wherewith, and the othec-would borne.
