Two New Post Offices.

We are glad to be able to state
that at last the Hon J. VIM Stokes
has succeeded in having the post
Office department at Washington
establish two new Offices in this
county. One OF them is at the home
Of Mr.. James Dunbar and lafayette
Dunbar will be the post master ard
the name selected by the post Office
department is D.m7!lle. TIE other
Office is at Mr.. Davis Gantt'5 with
Mrs. CAN'T as post master. The
name of this cffice is Stall.
These Offices will fill a long felt
want and those people will now
enjoy nail facilities twice week
and they are now in communication
with their county seat.
They will be served by the star
route. which leaves this place for
CIark's Mill, the present terminus of
the route. The route will in all prob
ability be extended at an early date
to Mr. Gantt's, or rather Stall, which
will be the terminus of the route.
Congressman Stokes is deserving
of the grateful appreciation of the
people of that section for his persis-
tent and successful efforts in their
behalf.

Our CASTOR Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

The abundance of rain has some
what stopped and our farmers are
now busy with their crops.
Wheat has been harvested and the
yield fairly good average and now its
filters, pancake and "lasses."
Our bees have been robbed and
the honey yield is extra good and
the quality super6ne.
Plums are ripe and plentiful here
abouts.
Our craving appetites have been
satiated with the pies of the new
peach tempted with the fresh honey.
Miss Dora Craft is now spending
her we'll earned and much needed
vacation under the parental roof and
already numerous vehicles are to be
seen around the front gate these
lovely June Sunday eyes,
Who loves her best
IT'S hard to tell,
Among all the rest
One loves her we'll.
There is one in our town now
whose heart beats with renewed
gladness since the return of his
better half.
The spring chicken now begins to
be in evidence and most welcome he
is to our table.
A series Of revival meetings will be
held with the Red Bank church at
Saxa Gotha mills, commencing the
first Sunday in July at II o'clock a.
m. Everybody come to these meet,

his brother, Henry NJ. Fallaw.
We are panied to chronicle the
death CT Mrs. J. A. Hook, which took
place several days ago. The writer
has known this good Christian lady
and mother for years. She always
had kind words and pleasing smiles,
gentle tones all the while, generous
dealings, kind hearted, thoughtful
and true were some of her lead
ing characteristics. She was con-
sistent member of the M. E. Church
and adorned the profession which she
believed. She leaves husband,
four daughters and three sons to
mourn her death. Our hearts 60
out in deep sympathy for the stricken
family and we commend them to God
who doeth all things well.
Henry NJ. Fal'aw who has been
attending the Theological Seminary
at Louisville, By., now stopping with

What young man went courting,
Thought it the best of sporting
Till one rainy night
The old man made him take flight
And jumped the fence
And has not been back since?
We hear of one who heard several
pretty girls speak of exploding shells
in the sporting camp of the young
men, for says he: "The mosquitoes
are as much as I can be pestered
with at one time"
We have young man farming on
an experiment this year with the un-
derstanding that if successful he'll
marry this fall and farm on a more
extensive and broader plan next
year upon the swamp lands of the
Congaree. The indications now ere
that he will fail to don the robe of q
benedict and remain where he now is.
