ANOTHER DISPENSARY KILLINO*
Wednesday morning at o o'clock,
Mr. Henry Turner, a respectable
citizen of Spartanburg cmnty, while
on his way to town to the State Fair,
was halted and held up by Detective |
Newbold and an assistant without th??
least provocation. Newbold discharged
both pistols which he held in his
hands, and the contents of one killed
Mr. Turner. Newbold then fled,
and up to time of going to press has
not been apprehended. S. T. llowie
has been arrested and jailed as an
accessory. Public feeling in Spartanburg
is very bitter against Newbold.
It is understood that he will
plead accidental shooting, and when
his bondsmen appear will give himself
up.
Thus the infamous dispensary system
continues to drench our highways
and homes with the blood of
innocent men, and the hired bravos
and thugs of a rotten system boast of
executive protection!
MARRIAGES.
Union has had an epidemic of inarriagts
this week?the like has never
been known in our midst before.

tlio ^ hole business is that we are
losing our voting women. Now if
some women would come along and
carry oft' some of our old butchelors
(we won't call any names now, but if
they don't show signs of improvement
soon, we will blacklist them and
publish them every week) we would
be highly pleased. They are a
nuisance to any community; they arc
too insignificant to take notice of,
but t! rough a spirit of fairness ?ei
give them notice that they must mend
their ways and make some steps or
pi ogress towards the matrimonial j
state. We don't know but that it ;
would be a good idea to pass a law
in the I.cgis'aturc disfranchising]
every old batchelor, and making him
ineligible to public ofliee. I nion
has ijuite an array of old batchelors
that are right good sort of fellows,
o r.
but cf very little service to their;
country cr community. We want to
get rid of them, (.'an t the ladies
Jiiiiut- MMiir fu^wuwua win
uiiiiis arc open to them. Take due
notice some of you old rij?s, for many
of you are now verging on the age
limit of the halt, lame and blind- J
No ijuarter will he allowed you when ;
we once iai.se the war ery.
The Lantern, semi weekly, of j
Chester, a new paper published and !
edited by J. T. liighani, is a valued
addition to our list of exchanges. It i
is neat and newsy, independent in 1
politics, and deserves success.

The l'ickens Smtinal has good
editorials and i> i. specially careful in j
it- selected matter, and we have not 1
joined an editor's mutual admiration
society either.

A-lack a-las-a-day ! As wc feared,
the Cotton Growers' Association has
fallen into the hands of the politicians
! Can't the farmers do anything
without the aid of the infernal olJ
political hacks?
TRIBUTE OF RESPECT
To The Memory of Or. Theodore Hunro?By
The Improved Order
Red Men.

Whereas, death has for tlie first tiuie
invaded our Wigwam and snatciied from
us, one of our brightest, moat generous
and noble hearted chiefs. Dr. Theodore
Munro. Tlierefore be it resolved, that
by the death of brother Munro. Oudnlee
Tribe, No. 21 Improved Order Red Men
and the community has sustained a
great loss. A vacuum has been created
that cannot be filled, a regalia of our
order lias lost a wearer who adorned it
by his every day life in the practice of
friendship and charity. <
1 Resolved 2nd. That we extend to his
U'reaved family our deep sympathy in
this hour of afiliction.
Resolved .'Id. Tliat a copy of those
j resolutions be sent to him family and be
published in our county |?ijier.

1IY T1IK HOARD oK HEALTH,
j There lists ticcurred since our last meeti
ing an event which lists cost us the loss
of one of our mast sible members. The
death of Dr. Theodore Munro?si loss
j that is well near irreparable, and at this,
lirst meeting, since his severance from
: us we feel the break so deeply that our
! desire is to )>ay him the i>oor tribute of
' expressing here how greatly his loss is
deplored. His opinion wsis always firm
i and clear, his judgment good. There
! wsts never any deviation from what he
: thought his uuty. No personal consideration
ever carried weight with him.
The word fear wsis unknown to this man.
lie made up his mind on the issues presented
and no one could turn him. Such
characteristics were those needed here.
We therefore express our dcejiest regret
that he has 1 wen taken from our midst,
and will ever remember one who occupied
in this community a marked position,
and leaves many who sorrow for his loss.

Death of John D. Long.
John D. I-ong died at his home in
Jonesviile, Friday morning, November
He was liorn February 14. 1K11. in
Somerset, Brown county, Kentucky,
lie came to this county in 1S20, a lad of
17 years. He attended school aliout four
months and afterward taught school. This
showed the brightness and strength of
his mind. He was a farmer all of his
life?married Miss Missinda Fowler, to
them were I torn ten children, seven sons
and three daughteis, three of whom predeceased
him?his wife died in 1S7.">.
In lStil he joined Capt. W. J. T.
tile mi's company of sharpshooters, he
served the four years of the late war.
The deat h of Mich a man deserves more
than mere mention, lie was a teniarkable
man in more ways tliuu one, endowed
as lie was with uncommon natural
ability. With hut a very limited
education he nevertheless was a leader
among men ; his great will-power made
men yield to and follow his lead. His ;
magnetic influence was felt wherever l.e
chose to exercise it to further a pur|wKc.
In carrying a principle cherished by him
iis right ami just ins adherence to principle?to
which lie clung with a tenacity
worthy of every cause lie advocated? (
would, if necessity demanded, have made |
him a martyr. He was kind and generous,
and lioie that most invincible ch.trac'er,
a peace-maker. Whenever it was
in his power he would settle a ditliculty
or difference lK-tween neighliorsor friends,
and thus perpetuate a friendship which |
otherwise would have made enemies for
life.
On the Monday liefore he died he sent 1
for his old friend?Hev. A. A. James to
whom he expressed a desire to join the |
church. Mr. James received him into ]
the Presbyterian church, liaptiscd and
administered the sacrament of the Lord's
Slipper.
We feel that upon the profession of
such a man sincerity and true rc|>entnnce
is miijuestioiiably .stam|>ed. for with him
hyjxH-t isy was a crime. We extend our ,
heartfelt sympathy to the family.

An Uncertain Disease.
There is no disease more uncertain in its
nature than dyspepsia. Physicians say that the
symptoms of no two enses agree. It is
therefore inost difficult to make a correct
diagnosis. No matter how severe, or under

tnry day strengthens the belief of emi- I
nent physicians that impure blood ia the j
cause of the ntjority of our diseases.
Twenty-five years ago this theory was need
as a basis for the formula of brown*' Iron
Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected
by this fhmoua old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory is correct.
