Local News from Town and Country TOO SHORT FOR A HEAD But None Too Short to Mention, Hence They Are llollcd Dow n For tjulck Rend ing hy Rosy Ledger Patrons Who Are Prt*sstMl foe Time. Arrange your plans early to attend the .‘list Annual State Fair at Colum bia, Nov. Oth to 10th. If you have anything to exhibit at the State Fair send to Secretary Hol loway. at Pomaria, S. 0., for a pre mium list. Do not delay’ to do so. Mr. J. I). Scruggs presented The Ledger with a good specimen of po- tatoe squash last week This is the first potatoe squash that Mr. Scruggs has grown and he is justly pround of his product. Commander Wood requests us to state that there will be a meeting of Jake Carpenter Camp l . C. \ . next Saturday at 2 o’clock, and a large at tendance is urged as business of im portance is to Ijc transacted. (Jovan Illack, a Cherokee farmer who raises everything he needs in the line of provisions at. home and is, a sa consequence, one of the most inde pendent men in the county, yester day presented The Ledger with sam ple of excellent home-made molasses. Mr. Black knows how to make gootl molasses. Mr. James Reynolds and Miss Lizzie Morgan, a popular young couple of Trough, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony at that place a week ago last Sunday. Miss Morgan is a relative of Mr. Leander Morgan, of this city, and is a charming young lady. Mr. Reynolds is to be congrat ulated on his good fortune. There came near being a stampede at the Butt tent Saturday night on account of several shots being tired down town. Oltieer Hollmcn was endeavoring to pursuado a gentle man of color to stop in his wild Might from the clutches of the law but the Hoeing darkey did not tarry. If the shooting had any elTect what ever it was to cause the fellow to run that much the faster. Prof. Arthur L. Butt attended ser vices nt the Methodist church .Sun day and added his clear, rich voice to the choir. Mr. Butt is a sweet singer and has had the honor of con ducting some of the largest choirs in the South, He assisted Prof. F.xcell in the great Sam Jones meeting in Charlotte a number of years ago, and for a while conducted the singing at Evangelist Fife’s meetings. J). P. Hughes, who has been en gaged in the merchantile business in this place for some time, leaves to day for Carp, S. C., where he will engage in a like pursuit. Dan-has made many friends during his stay in Gaffney, and there is no one who regrets to sec him go away more than The Ledger, for his transactions with us have been of such a nature as to win our confidence ana "'steem. Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Lipscomb have moved from Limestone to the “bur- racks" next to Prof.W.F. McArthur’s. Mr. and Mrs. Lipscomb have many friends in that neighborhood who are delighted to have them so near, and possessing the happy faculty of mak ing friends with all whom they come in contact it will not be long before they will become acquainted with all their neighbors and thus add to their already largo circle of friends and ud- miuers. The case of M. C. and Mrs. Eliza- bi th Perry against the Galfm y Carpet Manufacturing Co. last week result ed in the judge ordering a mistrial, the jury failing to agree. The jury stood eleven for the plaintiff to one for the defendant. This was the last ease tried and on Saturday court was adjourned. Judge Buchanan is what might ho termed a working judge. He. transacted inoisibjjusiness than any other judge that has yet held court in this county. The Ladies Aid and Missionary Societies of the First Baptist church are furnishing the clothes for a lit tle orphan girl in the Baptist Or phanage at Greenwood. Last week they sent forward their contribution for the winter season. Among the articles sent were two dresses made by Mrs. Stacy, the venerable mother of Mr. F. G. Stacy, which for neat ness and skill would bo a credit to one much younger. Mrs. Stafy is eighty-one years of ago and did the work all alone with her lingers Saturday morning H. L. Spears dis covered a turkey in his turnip patch, and thinking to frighten it olf picked up u stick and threw at the bird. His aim was better than he had supposed and the result was that he had u dead turkey on his hands. “Ki” did not knw whoso turkey it was so sot about to find the owner. After a diligent search of several hours he found out that it belonged to County Supervisor Lipscomb, so he delivered the dead bin! and paid for it, besides apolo gizing for having killed it. That is one time that “Ki” was frightened. Presiding Elder Meadors occupied the pulpit of the Methodist church Sunday morning. He preached an elegant sermon, full of pathos and dashed with humor. No one who heard it could fail to he impressed by it. '1 he preacher’s earnestness and sincerity were depicted in his counte nance and his words of admonition made a deep impress upon his hear ers. We venture the assertion that if the oflicers of the church would let it be known through The Ledger when Mr, Meadors was to preach he would ho greeted by u larger congre gation than was present yesterday, although ho had a fair sized audience. N. T. Burris, of Kunnyside, is one of The Ledger's numerous colored subscribers. He was here Friday am 1 paid for his paper for a year and seemed much interested in the pro cess of printing.

It matters not what the quality or style of the dress, it invariably seeks the level of the shoe. The shoes are naturally the base of the structure you are going to erect in dress, therefore it is absolutely necessary to have the base properly laid. We are in position to give you just what is needed for your partic ular case. There are a great many styles in vogue; what you want is THAT style that suits YOUR particular case. Just any style won’t do. Shoes are like hats, the same style doesn’t suit every one. We under stand this and are prepared for YOU. M.
