14 Was a Splendid SuC«Ms h\ Bitty
Respect.
The concert last Monday night at
the Gaffney Male and Female Semi
nary by the ladies of the Methodist
church was a pronounced success.
While the attendance was not so
large as it should have been that is
accounted for in the fact that there
was a counter attraction. The pro
gram consisted of music and tab
leaux, and those who attended were
pronounced in their praises of the
entertainment.
Master Rob Laney’s singing elic
ited applause and the little six-year-
old was compelled to respond to an
encore.
Miss Ophelia Turner’s rendition of
“I have sighed to rest me,” was one
of the most pleasing numbers on the
program and that charming young
lady’s excellent voice was full of
richness.
Mrs. J. F. Laney sang “baby,” a
new song just out tliis summer.
Mrs. Laney made a decided hit.
The rendition of ‘‘Life’s dream is
o’er,” by Mr. Lysth and Mrs. Fay
Gaffney was of a high order. They
were effectively assisted by a violin,
piano and cornet accompaniment by
Miss Rosa Johnson, Prof. W. L.
Johnson and Mr. M. G. Montgomery.
Mrs. Fay Gaffney’s arrangement of
the stage and her rendition of ‘‘Par
adise Alley’ was a most catchy num
ber.
Miss Florence Griffith’s piano solo
was of her usual excellent order and
“Tarantelle” was seldom if ever
better played than by her.
The Second part consisted mainly ‘
of tableaux and were very pretty.
First came ‘‘Tom Thumb’s wedding,”
by the little folks. It caused much
merriment and the young actors did
their parts remarkably well. Those
that followed were: “In sight of
homo,” and a companion piece
“Farewell to home,” “Parris giving
tjie apple,” and “The fates.” Prof.
Johnson explained the tableaux in
their order which added greatly to
the enjoyment of the evening.
After the program hai been con
cluded refreshments were served.
The entertainment netted a hand
some sum fur the cause and there
have been requests that it be re
peated. which may be done.

Another Burglary.
Last Saturday night W. I). Thom-
on' store on East Fredrick street was
entered by burglars and robbed of a
quantity of goods and his books torn
up.
Only a week or two ago J. W.
Bridges’ store was done the s..me
way. Now these things arc becom
ing too frequent. Our city authori
ties should leave no stone unturned
to put a stop to these outrages, and
every citizen should at onct see that
their shot guns are well loaded with
buck-shot and themselves always on
the lookout so they can shoot the
scoundrels whenever they appear.

ill, the noted Sunday school worker
