In 1858 four gentlemen entered their sons
at boarding school at Cokesburg, in South
Carolina. They had been for years intimate
friends, and were clergymen in the Metho-
dist church. These boys remained at this
school as room-mates and classmates for
two years, and entered Wolford College,
standing relatively first, second, third and
fourth. They remained at this institution
four years, and were room-mates all the time,
graduating relatively first, second, third and
fourth, in large class. They entered the
law office at Spartansburg and studied law
under the same chancellor. The war broke
out, and on the call for troops, they entered
Jenkins rifle regiment from South Caroli-
ma, and were messmates in the same COM
pany. Being near the same height they
stood together as comrades of battle in this
regiment. At the second battle of Manassas,
August, 1868, shell from the Federal bat
terry fell in the ranks of this company, and
killed these four men land no other in the
company. They are buried on the battle
field and sleep together in the same grave.
Their names are Capers, McSwan, Smith
and Duncan, and the sons of Bishop Capers
Rev. DR.. McSwain, Rev. DIR. Whiteford
Smith and Rev. Dr. Duncan, of Virginia,

Dyspepsia is the most perpexlng of all human all

rlety and the fororn and despondent victims Of the
disease often fancy themselves the prey in turn Of

close sympathy which exists between the stomach

a burglar or burglars entered the house of John
Heiser of Centre township, at night, and stole
some boots and shoes. They also ransacked his

change, and pocket book containing some
notes. About $4,000 in money was wrapped
up in an old rag, but the thieves showed it
aside as worthless. The following night the
pocket book, with the notes intact, was left at
the door, with letter stating that they did not
want his notes, and in future he should take
better care Of his papers. Moral; keep your

The Fourth of July passed very quietly in
Bloomsburg. The places of business banks &c,
were closed and the town wore holiday ap-
pearance There were no public ceremonies
and the people devoted themselves in the main
to pic-nics of which there were numbers in the
neighboring groves There was no disorderly
conduct on the streets and the holiday was the
most free from noise and disturbance of any
we remember for years. There was ball at
Central Hotel on the night of the Third, and a
festival a nd dance in Evans hall on the even
ing of the Fourth. Taking all things into con-
sideration, we believe "the anniversary of &c,
was a very sensibly observed national holiday.
