that our Dispensers may be quick In de-

Ispent yesterday in Trogleyel, guest
at the hospitable home of Mr.. Sheriff. To
say that had pleasant time would only
be putting It mild. enjoyed myself
hugely. BY the way, Twill stack up this
Troglevel section against anything in this
County for fine Watermelons and heap

muster, too.
When published We read the t3reenville
News' Tumbling Shoals bee hiVing Incl
dent, and on the evening following mar
rated 1t to q friend-narrated 1t with the
expectation of hearing him exclaim, "that
beats anything that have heard Of" bu.
To our utter establishment he sail, "Why,
Ned, we have q fellow here In Brushv
Creek who is the hero of bee h:ving Incl.
dent that will knock the socks off of that"
."Indeed." said I, you must tell US about
it.r "Well," he commenced, zone after
noon since the waning Of moons not
many, tiller .of the fertile sell Of this
Township was taking an evening stroll, no
doubt thinking as he walked along of the
many blessings with which he was sur.
rounded, when suddenly he stopped, his
something nestled on the under side of q
limb, which, on examination, proved to
be swarm Of bees. As he was not within
reach of the necessary materials for con-
structing gum, and had nothing with him
that he could hive. th6m in, hin first I'M
pulse, and the one upon which he was
about to act, was to leave them IS be bad
found them, but as he turned to leave he
took second glance at them, which in
spired him with the thought that that was
too fine q swarm of bees for him to let go,
and as he stood with the guano sack in his
hand Illuminating it flashed across his
mind that these -sere record breaking
times. That was enough, he unfurled his
sack, gallantly walked up to where the
bees were, held it under them with one
hand, and thrashed them into 1t with the
other. When the last bee YVES In, he
calmly tied-up the sack, throwod it over
his shoulder, walked home, fixed up q
gum and dumped them into 1t, and they
are doing well..n When the good brother
finished as above we fell into something
like trance, and when We recovered he
had departed. Thinking, therefore, that
the matter would bear Investigation, we
straightway set to work, and. with some
little enquiring around, succeeded in locat-
ing our nan-found him in the person Of
Binum Trip. We hayn't ha0. time to
call on him, but had member of the
medical fraternity, who passes there fre.
Quently, to stop and ask him abo'1t 1t Sat-
urday. He says that Binum says that it
is fact-he did hive swarm of bees in
q Ruano sack and is not ashamed Of it.
Score another one for Brushy Greek!
