We desire to express our sympath!
and coincidence with Brother Nc
Lenna, of the Johnston Monitor.
Just last week he expressed bis graf
ication that there were two daily
oapers in The State which did not
publish their war news in double
column, one of which being the
Columbia Register. He seemed to
be elated at being saved the iDtec-
ton of having to pour over two col
uuns of unibteresting war news dur
ing these hot days and quaffed great
gulps OF satisfaction in reading the
single column Register. But, alas
the Register has outdone its rivals
and not only prints war news IN
d,uble column but also its editorials
We can feel for you brother and you
have our deepest commiseration ID
this your hour of sore distress. We
have been inflicted with like inhlc-
ton, have poured over double col
umns of matter with flaming head
lines in'large type, chronicllng sig
nal victory Of the American
navy, in which engagement so many
vessels were sunk and five hundred
Spaniard soldiers killed, and not an
American life lost, nor a ship hit,
only find the whole story contradict d
ia one little, obscure aod insignih-
cant line at the bottom. We try to
give the war news in fair, impartial
and unvarnished manner, culling out
all exaggerated accounts and giving
only what We conceive to be the
truth.

VIM. Harris, n notorious thief from
the Swansea vicinity, was captured
here by j. G. Cooper, officer. Tie
negro had in his possession an Old
grey nag which was for sac. His
price being an unusually small cne,
suspicion as laised, and upon the
close of sale of g for the animal,
William was arrested and lodged
safely in Jail. Soon after bis arrest
a posse Ct men from Swansea, at full
speed, rode into town and reported
the fact that William had broken in
Mr.. Paul E. Huttos store at Swan
sea and stolen goods to the amount
of SO, had bridled mule to take
his departure when he was inter-
fered with by the owner and made
his escape.
Fleeing further he entered the
stable of Dau Nelson, tenant on Il.
R. Goodw;n's farm and took the old
gray nag which be rode to Brook
land, where be succeeded in dispos-
ing of her. Harris was hotly pur-
sued all night, aud it is almost an
assured fact that had the posse
caught sight OF him that the result
might have been entirely different as
to his capture. A warrant was take n
out and Harris, after preliminary
hearing, will be sen. TO Jail to await
trial in the coming Circuit Court.
Several citizens went down to the
drawing eff of AIr. Martins pond

most enjoyable time and succeeded
in catching more than one thousand

To the Editor of the Dispatch:

Friday evening, June the 3rd,
large audience assembled at lrmo
Academy to witness the exercises
which brought to close for this
term the school of Miss NJ. E. Crooks.
The house was filed to its utmost
capacity and crowded around outside,
every one eager to witness as much
of the exercises as possible. Every
thing was carried out in the best OF
style, and without special mention OF
any who took part in these exercises,
I am in position to say that on equal
grounds the speeches and dialogues
could not be surpassed. From the
smallest to the largest all were in the
best of spirits and acted their parts
with completeness. The music,
which was perfectly enchanting, was
furnished by Mr.. John Bouknight
and Mr.. and Mrs. B. F. Swygert.
Rev. S. c.. Ballentine delivered very
short address, owing to the 'a'eness
of the hour, but no more appropriate
and instructive language could be
contained in the same number of
words and sentences as were in those
used by him. Miss Crooks has given
general satisfaction, and when the
board Of trustees meet to elect q
teacher for the next term We predict
that she will more than likely be
called to fill the position.
Quite an elaborate program Of the
exhibition was carried out to perfec
ton. Space forb;ds its publication.
Capt. J. H. Counts presented your
correspondent with very nice peach
which is only q specimen of some
that are growing and ripening on his
place.
Mrs. Wade T. Weed who was
bitten some time ago by very
poisonous snake, while getting pcta
toes from bank, I am glad to say,
has about recovered.
Rev. Nj. L. Banks who has been
confined to his bed with fever is no
better. Mrs. J. W. Hook also is con
fined to bed with the same disease.
We hope, however, that we shall not
have such prolonged siege of fever
as we did last year.
Frank Weed is adjadged by all
guilty of cowslaughter ard furnishes
our town with excellent beef.
Rev. J. Walter Dickson and son
are visiting at his daughters, Mrs.
NJ. L. Banks.
Mr.. T. H. Suber has gone to
Columbia to take business course.
SOMEBODY got hold OF Judge Shealy
few days ago and played havoc
with his whiskers. The Judge says
he only had them trimmed down
preparatory to clean shave before
entering the next campaign.
The drought that is upon US is
doing much harm to all farm pro-
ducts, and if rain delays much longer
everything will very likely be cut
short. We have large interest in
the blackberry crop, and if we are
cut out of that I really don't know
what will become of US, for spring
chickens grow mighty slow and the
hens don't lay much and the roosters
not at ali. H.

and glorious ever performed by any
