A Former Resident
Visits Lancaster after an
Absence of Twenty Years
--Something about His
Vegetable Farm in Florida.

Mr.. Ii. Ii. Chappell, of San
ford, Fla, stopped in Lancaster
one day this week, on his way to
New York. We are indebted to
him for pleasant call while here
Mr.. Chappell was at one time a
resident of this place, being in
the railroad business here. He
LETT Lancaster twenty years ago,
going to Florida, where he is now
successfully engaged in truck
farming, his principal crops be.
ing celery and radishes. He
shipped to northern markets the
past season $50 carloads Of celery
alone.
Some idea OF the marvellous
advance in land values in Florida
may be gathered from Mr.. Chap.
pelPs experience. Some wears
ago he bought the farm he is
now cultivating for 81 .25 an acre
Recently he declined an offer OF
$l2,5OO. TOR five acres of his
farm. On the five acres referred
to Mr.. Chappell made a profit
this year of over $4,000. He has
gradually y brought his farm I'D
to a remarkably high state of
cultivation. He uses about three
tons OF fertilizer TO the acre. He
is practically independent of
seasons, as he can irrigate his
lands when shower is needed
The farm is also well under
drained with tiling.
Mr.. Chappell met many Of
his old Lancaster friends while
here this week, who were indeed
glad to see him again. He not
only stopped over to meet his
friends and former associates,
but he desired to see tor himself
Lancasier,s wonderful growth he
has been reading about in the
Lancaster correspondence of the
Charleston News and Courier.
through which medium he keeps
up with Lancaster news.

Accident to a LanCaStrian
Causes People in Charlotte
to Think that they Felt a
Genuine Earthquake.

The Charlotte Observer re
ports an earthquake shock in
that city last Tuesday evening.
IL was not the ordinary reg ulation
seismic disturbance, conrempora
ry, that your mayor and others
felt. That quake was caused bv
mighty fall that evening which
Lancaster's monumental magis-
'rate, Judge Caskey, experienced
at Waxhaw creek, between here
and Charlotte. AS every body
who knows him will testify.
Judge Caskey's avoirdupois is
equal 10 that of some bales of
cotton, and his attitude so great
that he frequently walks in the
middle Of the street to avoid
stepI ing on aud stumbling over
store awnings. When therefore,
a man like that tax es a tumble,
and his gigantic frame suddenly
comes in contact with mother
earth, there's bound TO be some
thing doing in the way of a shake
Judge Caskey's fall Tuesday
evening occurred as he was re-
turning from the Vanwyck pic
mic and school closing exercises.
His four-seated hack upset with
HIM about the ford at Waxhaw
creek, hurting his ponderous
honor violently to the ground
Fortunately, Judge Caskey es
capped unhurt, but as much can.
not be said of the expanse of
land which his massive body
struck, which now resembles a
brick yard excavation. In rolling
over and struggling to get up, the
Judge made an impress that was
mistaken the next day by cit
zen OF the community for IA
place where an elephant had
waIlowed. He therefore came 70
town and exciredly inquired
whether anybody had heard of a
stray elephant roaming about
the country.

The Deadly Cocaine.
w hlte Man Dies from its
Effects and Several Ne
groes Narrowly Escape a
Similar Fate.

The fact that a number of ne
groes OF Lancaster are now usiny
cocaine as a substitute for whi,-
key was suddenly brought to light
this week, and as a sequel to
developments white man il
dead.
Last Wedne day afternoon
several negroes in town Were
found prostrated from The effects
of some drug. Two OF them,
Dennis Cole and Otis Clinton.
were down on the Court house
square, in an uncons cious condt.
ton. Three others, Arthur Moore,
kissie Clinton and Ella Lowry.
were at the same time in serious
condition, in other parts of town.
Physicians worked on the par
ties for hours before they were
even partially relieved, and !:
was not until Thursday morning
that the negroes could give a.
intelligent account OF themselves.
1t appears that on Tuesday
Dennis Cole and another negro,
Ed. Ballard, went over TO Fort
Lawn and one of them bought
some cocaine, from a drug gis:,
it is alleged. 1t is also stated
that the druggist had been d.
rected by physician to let The
negro have cocaine for medicl.
nal purposes. When Cole and
Ballard got as far as the river,
on their return trip, they were so
much under the influence of the
drug that they had to remain
there all night. During their
stay at the river it is said thai
the ferryman, Mr.. William Ra,-
ley, asked them to let him taste
the drug. How much he took is
not known, but Wednesday aft
ernoon his dead body was found
in a ditch short distance dowa
The river, on The Chester side.
Cole returned to Lancaster
without Ballard some time dur
ing the dav Wednesday, ant
shortly a ter his arrival he and
the other negroes named were
critically i'll from the effects Of
too much cocaine. Cole claims
that The others had gwen him
money wi h which TO buy n.
drug for them. 1t is said that
the cocaine was a purer art'c =
than that the negroes had bepn
accustomed to using which ac-
counts for the serious condition
IN which they soon became.
An inquest was held by the
Chester county authorizes Thur4-
day over The body OF Mr.. Raij.T
and the jury came to the conc!n-
sion that his death was doe tc \
drug administered BY Dpnn,e
Coie and Ed. Ballard. who we--
consequently Y arrestc4 and carried

The DiSpenSary Matter in
KerShaW.
VIII Editor Hamel has to
say on the Situation, since
His Return from Alabama
IA Gard from Mayor
Blakeney.
From the l rshaw Era.

The Information that an order
had been issued by the State
board of control for the esta bilsh.
ment of dlspensary on a small
strip of territory In the town of
kershaw, which happens to lie
In the county of Kershaw, came
as surprise to us while away. as
we had no lntimatlon before
leaving that any effort was being
made In that direction. While
.rumors were afloat prior to the
election In this county that it
would be done in the event of
the dispensary being voted out of
Lancaster county, we did not re-
gard the matter seriously for
the reason, in the first place, that
1T hardly seemed reasonable that
the State board of control would
grant a request of that kind, such
a small portion OF the town being
in the Kershaw county side and,
in the second place, the votes
being so Overwhelmingly against
1T here added another reason.
But it seems we were mistaken.
1t was not to be supposed, of
course, that simply voting out
the dispensary would completely
annihilate the liquor traffic at
one blow, but our town authori-
ties have been very vigilant and
we had thought that they were
succeeding we'll in the effort they
were making to suppress the
illegal sales in the short time the
law has been in operation. And
II the consumption of liquor has
been reduced as much as one
third IN the SIX months of prohib-
ltIon we submit that it is succeed
ing remarkably well.
We were glad to find on ourre
turn that active opposition was
being made to the establishment
o. the dispensary in our town, and
we were further informed that
more than majority of sigua-
lures had been obtained Of the
qualified voters hving in Buffalo
and Flat Rock Townships of Ker
shaw county, which are the town.

goers had an opportunity to become ac-
quainted with his methods during the ten
weeks engagement of the Frawiey sum-
mer stock company at the Columbia in
1899. In the intervening six years Mr..
CASTOR visited Washington several times
with prominent companies during the regu-
lar season, and last year he appeared IN
the Columbia summer stock company. At
both of these engagements Mr.. CASTOR
was seen In a wide variety of roles.
Mr.. CASTOR is almost veteran of the
stage, but, like all older actors of extended
experience who live in the present rather
than in the past, he does not think 1t fair
to be singled out an old actor. If he
seems old when heard relating interest
Ing "reminiscences 1t is because he started
out as an actor early in life, as far back
as he can remember He has been on
the stage since he was mere boy. A ma
tive of New York, he was first a member
of several Juvenile companies when they
were the craze, long before the Gilbert &
Sullivan craze came IN. He then became
a professional and drifted into the south
and west, where he obtained a varied and
valuable training as a member of numer-
Gus stock companies. He was a young ac
tor when the old stock system was at its
height, and tells many interesting stories
of the old permanent companies in various
cities and the travelling stars whom they
were called upon to support. Like the
players of that period. he was equally at
home In the classical and standard plays,
and supported such stars as Lawrence Bar
rett, Adelaide Nelson and Charlotte Cush-
man.
His work on the stage today discloses
the thorough training that the old pro-
fessionals received. Mr.. Castor constantly
refers to the genius OF Charlotte Cushman,
with whom he often played and whom he
supported in her greatest role, Meg Mer-
rifles" He was also with Mary Anderson
and supported her at the Brooklyn Acad-
