It was our pleasure to call and see
Macomb H. Lucas, our old friend and
war comrade, on our return home
from our fishing trip last Thursday.
He has a comfortable and pleasant
home and is surrounded with plenty.
He is one of the best farmers in
Black creek aud raises an abundance
of corn and peas. His crop is off
fully one-third, but still hac good
prospects for fair crop. He was
blessed with plenty Of fine peaches
and made US present of basket of
fine fruit which was indeed a treat.
One peach of the Chinese Cling
variety measured IL inches in cir
cumference and weighed IA ounces.
Another peach curiosity was one
with real "pesch" stem over two
inches long. We only regretted that
our time was limited and we could
not stop longer and talk over old
times.

Obituary.

4 noble and promising life has been
lost to the world by the death of
Sanders o. Harman. He was born
January 22nd, 1874, in the Providence
community, Lexington, county, S. G,

He was confirmed in youth at

emplary member on August Is, 1890.
His death was sad and tragic, &C.
curing while at his work. The ton
que of the wagon breaking, precipt-
itated the wagon upon the mules,
frightening them, caused them to
rnu away, threw him from his seat
to the ground, the wheels passing
over his body inAicting injuries which
produced his death.
His sudden removal from earth
when life for him was so radiant with
hope and fraught with happiness
cast deep shadow over the whole
community and prostrated the be-
reaved family by its terrible shock.
The funeral services of our dear
young friend were conducted by the
Revs. W.D. Quick and j. G. Graichen,
the sermon being preached by the
latter and was based on Isaiah LVII:
1: "The righteous is taken away from
the evil to come" in the presence Of
large and sorrowing congregation.
The interment took place in the
cemetery near the church where the
bcdy of our beloved young brother
reposea, awaiting the resurrection
of the just. j. q. &.

Levers Speech at 0rangeburg.

| Orangeburg Patriot.
Mr.. A. F. Lever was received with
applause. Said his mother was a
Derrick and his father a Lever and
therefore this combination was one OF
great raising powers. He paid a
beautiful tribute to the late DIR. j.
VIM. Stokes saying Lexington had
always stood to him, and would do
80 today were he alive. He was no
new convert to the measures ad7o-
Gated by DR.. Stokes, as were some OF
the candidates who formerly decried
his work as visionary and designed
to catch votes. He had good news
for the people. The post Office de-
partment had just advised him that
all the routes laid out by DIR. Stokes
in this district would be in operation
in the near future. he said the
government should give its rural and
urban population the same right, and
privileges if it bankrupted the gov
ernment.
He thought his official connection
with DR.. Stokes for five years gave
him the advantage in experience in
the work to be accomplished.
The Democratic party had always
stood for the people against cen
tralization and large standing armies.
Tt is opposed to conquest and did
not believe the people Of the State
would try to elevate the party who
oppressed US in 1877. Trusts are
the greatest menace to our freedom
and the Democratic party is opposed
to them. He spoke of the present
conflict between capital and labor
and said the Republican party wants
large standing armies to enforce un-
just laws against the laboring man,
and force unjust measures down
their throats at the point of the
bayonent. He denounced the false
rumors going the rounds and said he
would withdraw from the race if bis
opponents would say he was not
conducting an honorable campaign.
He said Mr.. Brantley fought DR..
Stokes in 1898, but as soon as that
statesman is dead, he claims to be
the illogical candidate"
Voice--"Are you running on
Stokes coat tail ?"
Mr.. Lever" "Well, I am not run
ming off it."
He said the way Mr.. Brantley re-
ceived the title of Colonel was that
he had run for 80 many different
positions that Governor McSweeney
had dubbed him Colonel of tn Run
ming Candidates." Qaughter). He
said his age should not count againet

New Marriage.

b. A. Spann, Adjutant.

A western newspaper prints the
following marriage ceremony: "WIlt
thou take her for thy pard, for better
or for worse, to have and to hold, to
fondly guard, till hauled off in 8
hearse? Wilt thou let her have her
way, consult her many wishes; make
the fire up every day and help her
with the dishes! Wilt thou give her
all the ''stuff' her little purse will
pack, buy a boa and muff; a little
seslskin sacque? Wilt thou support
her father and mother, Aunt Jemima,
Uncle John, three sisters and a
brother?" And his face grow pale
and blank; it was too late to jilt; as
through the chapel floor he sank, he
sadly said: II wilt" and he wilted.

"THE LAND OF THE SKY"
An Interesting Letter from the Foot OF
the Blue Ridge Mountains.


To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Your correspondent has been con-
fined at a little world of business at
home for term of eight years, tug.
ging away at the oars Of life almost
day and night listening to the ever
constant click Of the telegraph in
struments, the station signal OF
noisytrains and worrying his brain
over q set of red tape railroad books,
together with all the work and
worry of thrifty little mercantile
business, until it has become neces-
sary to seek rest in the gentle,
breezes of the mountains: In all OF
this long time I have had but one
weeks vacation before, and none but
those who experience close business
confinement can form any idea of the
wearing effects of such labor on
ones health.
For the benefit of those of your
readers whose condition in life do
not require the kind Of rest that
would bring them to the mountains,
as we'll as those whose circumstances
will not permit them to be here, L
will write a few lines as I 60 long.
Greenville is quite a nice little
town. It has almost one unbroken
shade of beautiful native oaks, and
the lots and yards are covered with
fresh green lawns. All the business
enterprises seem to be progressing,
and the houses are neat and desirable.
A lot of new and modern styled resi-
dences have been built recently and
others are in course of erection.
Electric street car lines are being ex-
tended to different points and it will
not be long till they will be extended
out to Paris mountain. The build
ing of a park is undergoing consider
alton, and when this is done and the
cars reach the mountains the people
here and strangers who come will
find it even more pleasant :han it
now is. Greenville has behind it just
the requisites for it's advancements-
money and plenty Of push.
It is backed up by cotton mills and
a fine farming country. The farmers
cultivate largely cotton and corn,
but crops are much diversified. I
never saw finer crops grow anywhere
than I have seen around here, and
from Laurens to Greenville. Our
people down home are making but
little corn, but there certainly are
fine fields of corn all over this coun-
try. I noticed that cotton has made
wonderful improvements all along the
line of road, and promises to make a
fairly good yield.
Today I leave this beautiful shady
town and 90 to Glenn Springs for a
few days, and then to Ashe7ille.
From one of these places I will write
you my next letter. d.
