Call on DANIELS & CO., THE TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE. It Will Be Held in This City in Au gust.

The object of tin* in stitute is to instruct teachers how 1 to teach. Those who will be here on that occasion are well qualified for the duties they have undertaken and ! it will be to the interest of every teacher and school trustee In the county to be present. There are no charges. The instruction is given free, the State bearing the expense, except the entertaining, and that is borne by the county. Let all who can do so attend. The institute will not be fully ccfnfined to teachers, but the doors will be open, so any one else in the county who is interested in education may attend. -* * Gaffney’s Importance. As evidence of (iullney’s growing importance our city otlicers and busi ness men are constantly receiving in quiries about the city, its prospects and adaptibility to the numerous businesses unu enterprises they repre sent. Their inquiries show that out- siders are looking toward Gailuey. Answer e very inquiry, state our con ditions exactly as they are. and with the ()h:o River andPhurleston railroad, which will be completed to this point by the first of October, will come another five thousand people. The following is a specimen of the inqui ries received by some one in the city every few days: Mayor A. N. Wood: Dear Sir: Would you be so kind as to give me your advice in regards to GafTney for a location to start the manutaeturing of pocket knives, and if tiie city would do anything to help a manufactory of that kind. Please let me know if the city is having a steady growth. 1 have hi on super intendent of the American shear and knife manufactory for twenty years, and understand the business thor oughly, and should like to form a company in GulTney if you think J could sell stock enough. . •* • The Ball Game. On last Thursday at b o’clock p. m, the second ball game was played be tween the second Gaffney’s and the Fair View’s. The game was u warm one from start to finish, the score be ing? to 4 at the close of the 7th inning, as at that stage it was a game of checks and Gaffney's next move, the Fair Views decided it advisable to to jump and so did, much to Gaff ney’s surprise as they were ahead. We hope to have another game at an early date. Tommie Drown, of Gaff ney. twirled the globe with those lanl.i!izing curves of his. The Fuir- view boys put up a snappy game and demonstrated to the GalTneyites that they were no novices at the American snort. HOW TO PIHD OUT.
