MIR. Otto Heigman was the proud
est man in Columbia when the blue
ribbon was tied on the Lexington
county exhibit. He jumped up and
popped his feet three times before
they touched the foor, which feat
made the Clemson boys turn green
with envy.
Delinquent subscribers should bear
in mind that our editor is making
the round with the Treasurer, for
the purpose Of making collections for
the Dispatch and he expects every
subscriber to do his full duty in
loading himself and buggy down
with the dollars of the daddies."
Being somewhat of bashful disposi-
ton, it is also expected that each
one will hunt him up and make
settlement of part if not all what
is due.
The reason why a locomotive is
called "she" is because they wear
jacket, apron, shoes, hose and
drag train behind them; they have
lap, need guides, ride wheels, will
not turn out for pedestrians and
sometimes refuse to work; they
attract men, are sometimes contrary
and it always takes man to manage
them.
