President Grover Cleveland and
party, including Secretary and Mrs.
Carlisle. Postmaster General and Mrs.
Wilson, Secretary Herbert and Mrs.
Micou, Ids daughter,Secretary Smith,
Secretary Morton and Miss Morton,
Secretary and Mrs. Lamout, wife of
the attorney general and Private Sec
retary Thurber, passed through Gaff
ney on a special train Tuesday morn
ing about 11 o’clock en route to the
International and Cotton States Ex
position.
About 9 o’clock the following dis-
patch was sent to the conductor of
i the t rain at Charlotte :
‘ We would like you to run as slow
as possible through Gaffney. Crowd
wants to see President Cleveland.
Please inform him accordingly and
ask him to be on rear car platiorm.”
Chas. Christman.
When the train reached the over
head bridge about a mile from town
the engineer blew his whiMle to an-
I uounce the approach of the distiu-
! guishod party and instantly there
! was a rush toward the depot. The
j crowd was not lacking in variety,
j Merchants, mechanics, farmers and
mill operatives, ladies and children
were there, and our brother in black
was also conspicuous.
As the train drew in to the station
it began to slow up. It almost came
to a standstill, in ohedience to the
request on the rear platform stood
the grand and noble head of the
greatest nation on earth. A mighty
cheer went up. Ladies and gentle
men waved their huukercheils and
hurrah after hurrah went up wtiile
Grover Cleveland, the man of ile.-tiny.
smilingly and gracefully bowed ac
knowledgment.
The train increased its speed and
in a short while was lost to view in
the distance, but Mr. Cleveland re
mained on the platform until it was
out of sight.
Standing on t he plat form with Pres
ident Cleveland us the train passed
through were .Secretaries lit ke Smith
and Dan Dumont and Postmaster
General’ Billy” Wilson. Just inside
the door stood several lady members
of the party.
Worthy ot \ our Charity.
Two weeks ago Thk Ledudk made
mention of the fact that there was u
destitute family in the northern sec
tion of the city named Crawford. We
do not propose to ask your aid in any
cause that we know to be unworthy
of our charity, but we do say that
the responses to this appeal have
been unworthy of a people who pro
fess to lie civilized. These people
are in need. They would have suff
ered for the necessities of life before
this had it not been for their more
fortunate neighbors who have kindly
shared what they had. We do not
believe that things should he lavished
upon them. There should he a relief
organization to look into such eases
but in t be absence of such organiza
tion we must do the best we can.
When Thk Lkuokk representative
culled at their home he was amazed
at the squalidness of the place. But
what was to be expected when on one
bed lay the head of the family—the
father—his cheek pale with u pro
longed attack of fever, while on an
other bed not eight feet away lay a
young daughter, her cheeks present
ing a flushed and unnatural rosy ap
pearance by a fresh onslaught of the
same malady. In a cornfr sat the
mother with withered face, her coun
tenance being one of abject pity,
while two little dirty unfortunates
paraded to and fro perfectly content
with t heir miserable surrounding. The
only cheerful being about the place
was a young boy. possible fifteen
years old, who had found it abso
lutely necessary to quit his work in
t e mil) in order to wait upon his
less fortunate kindred.
Now Thk Lkdgkk is not narrating
these incidents to play upon your
feelings, but these people are worthy
and need your sympathy and help.
Will you help? If so send or bring
your denutions to Thk Lkdgkk and we
will see to it that they are properly
disposed of.
A Quiet Marriage Last Wednesday a
Week Ago.
Mr. Jahez Hamrick, of Boiling
Springs. N. C., was wedded to Miss
Alie Surratt, of this city. Wednesday
afternoon, October 18th at 2 o’clock.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. B. P. Robertson at the residence
of the bride’s brother-in-law. Mr. R.
E. McCraw, in the presence of a few
of the relatives and friends of the
contracting parties.
The newly married couple, uccom-
by a party of relatives and friends,
left that afternoon for their future
home. Boiling Springs, where they
were given a wedding dinner.
The groom is a prosperous planter
of his section, while the bride is one
of the most excellent and well-known
ladies of this city, having assisted
her brother, Prof. Robt. Ssarratt, in
conducting the Baptist ILgii School
several sessions.
. The Musical Recital.
The musical recital of the students
of Cooper-Limestone Instutute last
Friday night under the direction of
Miss Eugenia Marguerita Hack, the
music teacher, was a success. The
piano playing of Misses. Florence
Griffith and Addle McArthur deserves
special mention, while the perform
ance of Misses Bennett, Martin, Man-
ville and Mrs. Goodlette was of a
high order, the latter being especially
so. Miss Hack was the drawing card,
being obliged to respond to repeated
encores. I here was a large crowd
present and the audience was loth to
retire when the programme had been
complete, not doing so until Prof.
Griffith announced in his unique man- j
ner, ‘ That’s all.”
It Cured Them All.
Mr. Henry .Shira, Girard, Ala.,
says: “Two years ago I had a se
vere case of Grippe and could not re
cover irom its effects. About a year
ago I tried King’s Royal Germetuer
and was soon well. It also cured m *
of bowel trouble, which I had for
four years, and I find it to be a quick
cure fop headache. It cured my
wife of Grippe also, and she says it is
the best thing she can get for Asthma
and Vertigo, I heartily recommend
it as a good family medicine.” New
package, largo bottle, 108 doses. $1.

Are you taking Simmons Liver Reg
ulator, the “King of Liver Medi-
cinfs?” That is what our readers
van% and nothing but that. It is the
samo old friend to which the old folks
pinned their faith and were never dis
appointed. But another good recom
mendation for it is, that it is better
than Pills, never gripes, never weak
ens, hut works in such an easy and
natural way, just like nature itself, that
relief comes quick and sure, and one
feels new all over. It never fails.
Everybody needs take a liver remedy,
and everyone should take only Sim
mons Liver Regulator.
Be sure you get it. The Red Z
