THE CAVALRY TROOP DEPARTS.


The Boys in Blue Leave Amid Cheers
For the Scene of HOstilities.
Fort Bills. now stands deserted, for
the last company left yesterday even
Ing for New Orleans. It was but q
short time ago that the people of FL
Paso cad farewell to the two infantry
companies that left for the front, but
they little thought they would so soon
bid adieu to the cavalry troop which
was left to guard the fort.
Yesterday afternoon at six O'Clock
the train composed of three coaches
and as many stock cars rolled into the
/. & P. yards, CT eered by several hum
dred FL Paso people who were there to
see the boys in blue start for the war.
The compaoy consisted OF seventy
four non-cOmmissiuned officers and
men, with Captain A. c. Macomb in
commend. Among the recruits from
Ell Paso were A. S. Hickey, w. ii.
Speare, B. Anderson, Bradford, J. h.
Adams, Binke 'dorf, Bullion, Carlisle,
Carpenter D. Drummond, Gregory,
Young. and Adams. However, several
boys accompanied the troops with the
hope of enlisting when they arrive at
New Orleans.
The boys did not forget their mascot
which was six months old yellow dog,
with q green cloak marked dewey"
The soldiers. both veterans and re-
cruits were a fine bo3y OF men, and q
credit to the United States army.

ne cessary yesterday to make q guess
At the causes which led to the smash
ing up of three engines and several
box cars in the early morning. A
m sake WAS made. The following
light yesterday evening: A T. P. en-
CINE, with Dave Schubert at the
throttle, went to the S P. yards for
transfer cars. Having secured six
loads they started east on the S. P.
track at a lively rate and met S P. en-
CINE 800 coming from the east with q
Big train. Engineer Schubert, of the
T. P. engine, realizing that collision
was inevitable, reversed his engine
and jumped. The two trains met with
such force as to CONF etely wreck a
fat car, which the T. P. engine was
carrying for pilot, and damaged the
T. P. engine to a great extent. This
was not the end of it, by ary means.
The T. P. engine. being in a backward
motion, started west on the S. P. track
without engineer or fireman, and
crashed into the 654 standing at the
water tank, damaging both engines
badly, and wrerking the cars. One Of
the cars was driven half way onto the
tender Of the 654, and, as a railroad
man remarked yesterday, if the 654
had had some loads in front of her, TIE

covery has demonstrated that it cures %
taken in the earlier stages of the disease,
before the lungs are too far wasted. In
consumptive there is a weaker spot than
even the lungs. That spot is the stomach.
A consumptive never really begins to die
until his stomach gives out. The Golden
Medical Discovery" not only braces up
the stomach, but acts directly on the
lungs, healing them and driving out all
impurities. Honest medicine dealers will
not urge you to take an inferior substitute.

Please allow me sufficient space in
your valuable paper to thank the
good people of Lexington county for
the magnificent way that they sus-
tanned my appeal from the decision
of the General Assembly in regard
to the Governors appointment Of
Comptroller General. The vote that
I received was more than satisfac-
tory, and should be delighted to
grasp the hand and thank each
friend personally for so kindly, gen.
erously and fairly supporting me in
my race for Comptroller General of
South Carolina.
It shall ever be my pleasure to
serve the people of my State in any
capacity that they may decide either
public or private.
Again expressing my appreciation
of the magnificent vote given me, and
hoping to meet my many friends at
some future date, I am.
Very truly,

Grateful Thanks.
Sec. Lex. CO. G. G.. P. Assn

[ desire to return my grateful
thanks to the people of this county
for the uniform kindness with which
I was treated by them during my
recent canvass before the first pri-
mary. I met with nothing but un-
varying kindness at their hands and
I will ever pleasantly remember them
through the years to come. To those
who supported me in the race for
County Supervisor I return my
most sincere thanks. The vote which
Ireceived was most dattering one
when it is considered that I was
comparatively unknown before the
opening of the campaign in many
sections of the county and I feel that
those who supported me did so as
recognition of my fitness and ability
to faithfully discharge the duties of
the Office to which I aspired. To
those who did not vote for me I bear
no ill feelings. They simply ezer-
cised their right and I have no CON-
plant to make against them. Hav
ing been defeated I gracefully bow
to the will of the majority as ex-
pressed through the ballot box.
With best wishes for all aid with
the hope thai our county affairs will
flourish and prosper under the ad
ministration of the successful candi-
date and that peace and prosperity
may smile upon all our people. I
remain the peoples obedient servant.
