At B&iiB Run.
Comrade Chas. Elms, o? Meehanicsvlllo,
N V., was struck hy a piece ot shell which
later caused severe heart trouble, lie says:
“At second Bull Run a piece of shell
lodged in my shoulder, and later
rheumatism set in, which in turn af
fected my heart to such extent that
several doctors pronounced my case
incurable. Dr. Miles’ New Heart
Cure relieved my pains, shortness of
breath and enabled me to work; also to
sleep soundly, and prolonged my life.”

BERLIN GOVERNMENT
HAS A LAND SCANDAL
Valuable Soil Given Away by
Colonial Officials.
AMERICANS IN THE DEAL
It, Is Understood That the Whole
Affair Will Uo Thoroughly VcntU
luted by the lUiehstiig und the
Guilty Parties Dismissed.
P>eklin’,Nov. 23.—Investigation shows
that the facts in the Cameroons scan
dal made public by The Tageblatt, Nov.
18, when that paper said an apparently
corrupt deal hud taken place by which
the chief of the colonial department
gave away 80,000 square kilometres of
Cameroon soil, estimated to be worth
about 40,000,000 marks, to various high
personages, far exceed Tno Tagebiatc’s
story.
Tiie promoters, it appears, first formed
a company and soon sold out to a new
company formed at Brussels and made
cp ot Belgians, Englishmen and. several
Americans, for 18,600,000 Irancs. The
concession, it further appears, really
cost them nothing. The first company
was named in the concession Sudekame-
run. Prince Hobculohe-Oehringeh was
one of the original concessioners. For
this reason the emperor forced his res
ignation as chief court chamberlain.
The faiCts in the most recent grant of
a concession are oven worse. To a com
pany called the Nordwest-Kaineruu ter
ritory was conceded larger than Ba
varia. It lies in the Hinterland of the
Cameroons, is extremely fertile and in
cludes valuable forests worth a thou
sand times the obligations the company
assumes toward the empira.
_The entire financial obligation is only
a 100,0U0 marks,contribution to tho pro
posed Tchad lake expedition, while
there are other undertakings to spend
3,000.000 marks within ten years in im
provement of tho tract, to construct
roads, steamer lines, plantations and
factories, all redounding to thoMaencfit
of the company.
The concession was granted for 50
years, which is to be extended for GO
years mere if the company within 12
years constructs a railroad coastwards.
At the expiration of tho second term,
the immense tract becomes the compa
ny’s property alsolutely. The company
also agrees to pay the government a
small share of its not pronts. There is
no provision that the company or a ma
jority of its shareholders must be Ger
mans
The correspondents of the Associated
Press learn from the colonial office, in
explanation of the above, that the pres
ent chief, Dr. Von Bnchka. adopted the
British policy of getting big moneyed
syndicates to take hold of the colonies
on the prospect of largo profits.
It is understood that the whole affair
will be thoroughly ventilated in tho
reichstag and that Dr. You Buchka’s
days as an official are probably num
bered.
A MEETING OF TEACHERS.
Southern F.ilncalional Assr.ftlntlon to
Convene In Memphis.
Mbmpkis, Nov. 23.—Tho Southern
Educational association is to meet in
Memphis Dec. 27, 28 and 2W. Ilerre-
soutatives from all of the scutheru states
and many of the other states will be in
attcudiVnco and Secretary Robertson
says ho is in receipt of letters from all
the states interested, which indicate an
immense attendance. Teachers will bo
here from Maryland to Texas and he
does uot beeituto to predict that the
convention will be one of the largest
bodies ever bronght together in Mem-
plus
A number of the state educational
associations are to hold meetings about
the samo time as the southern associa
tion, and many of the state organiza
tions have already notified Secretary
Robertson that they will adjourn in a
body to come to the Memphis conven
tion. Several of the states have also
written to secure hotel headquarters
while in the city.
The program prepared for the conven
tion is an exceedingly strong one. It
has been prepared by Dr. Jordan of the
University of Arkansas and president
of the Southern Educational associa
tion.
The bureau of publicity and promo
tion has been hard at work on the plans
and tho thousands of necessary details.
Chinese Mintfcier Protests.
Washington, Nov. 23.—Wu Ting
Fang, tho Chinese minister, has again
entered a protest because of the action
of Gejierai Otis in fco strictly excluding
Chinese from tho Philippine aj’chipql-
agO- Instructions have been sent to
General Oris to carry out tho provision^
ot the Chinese exclusion law as applied
to this country. The effect of this will
ho that General Otis will modify his
regulations so as to permi* *he entrance
of merchants and others belonging to
the unrestricted class of Chinamen who
are allowed to enter tho Uviteti States.
MID s N>i\v at N w Orleans.
New Okleans, Nov. 23.— General
Nelson A. Miles, commanding the
United States army, with his party ar
rived hero today in a special car. He
was received by Manager Blakely, pres
ident of the Progressive union. Imme
diately on his arrival, General Miles ar

ond section of the Baltimore and Ohio

l'*i-il by IfrUUli Soldier* in Africa.
Capt. C. G. Dennison is well known
all over Africa as commander of the
forces that captured the famous
rebel (lalishe. Under date of Nov. 1,
1897, from Yryburg, Bechuanaland,
ho writes: “Before starting on tho
last campaign I bought a quantity of
Oliutnberlain’s Colic, Cholera und
Diarrhoea Remedy, which 1 used my
self when troubled with bowel com
plaint, and had given to my men,
and in every case It proved most ben

ffi^r Header*.
Cherokco farmers have planted
many acres in wheat and oats and
are still at it. We think the acreage
will be greater than last year.
The old postolfice. next door to
The Ledger office, is being rearranged
and will be converted into a meat
market, with Pinson & Odom as pro
prietors.
Real estate transactions in and
arouud Gaffney continue brisk. Keal
Estate Agent R. O. Sams has recently
disposed of a number of valuable
tracts of land near the city which
will be improved for farm purposes.
I. G. Surratt and son Boyd have
built all the necessary buildings for
their tannery and will in a few days
put in their vats and begin business.
This is a new enterprise in Gaffney,
and is in good hands. They are bny-
ing hides now.
Our worthy townsman, Gilliard
Cline, is having a beautiful cottage
built on Buford street. It is much
too large for Gilliard as lie is, but he
could so change his condition that it
would just fit him, if the change got
him the right kind of a partner.
Julia Gist, one of the old time col
ored women that the youth of this
country once delighted to call “Black
Mammy," but which are fast pass
ing away, gave The Ledger a visit
Wednesday. Wo could not help but
think of “our old black manny" of
the long ago and wish that there
were more of them living in this day
and time.
The Ladies’ Missionary Society of
the First Baptist Church extends a
most cordial invitation to all the mis
sionary visitors in Gafiney, of what
ever denomination, to meet with them
during the coming convention. All
the ladies of Gaffney and surround
ing community are coYdiaJly invited
to attend the meetings, which will be
held in the Presbyterian Church.
Rev. T. A. Thompson, a worthy
colored Presbyterian minister of
Blacksburg, was in the city yesterday.
He called and renewed his allegiance
to The Ledger while here. We ven
ture the assertion that we have more
colored people on our list than any
other secular paper in this section of
the country, except, of course, one
published in the interest of the race.
Our colored subscribers are very
punctual in paying, and we have
fewer of them owing us in proportion
to their number than white people.
All of which speaks well for the col
ored population of Cherokeo county.
We have not seen the exhibition
that is to take place tonight at the
Graded School building, and there
fore know nothing of the ability of
the young men who produce it to give
a good show, but we have seen a simi
lar exhibition and we have no hesi
tancy in saying that it is a wonderful
piece of mechanism. The young men
who are to make the exhibition have
good faces and impress one with an
idea that they want to do the proper
thing, so we would reccommend that
those who have never seen an exhibi
tion of this kind go out and see it for
themselves, and those who have seen
one like it will, as a matter of fact,
use their own good judgment. At
any rate it is a purely moral exhibi
tion, instructive and amusing and you
cannot be hurt by attending.
Thousands Have Kidney Troublt
and Don’t Know it.
How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with youi
water and let it stand twenty-four hours; s
sediment or set
tling indicates ar
unhealthy condi
tioiv of the kid

your linen it i:
evidence of kid
ney trouble; to<
frequent desire t(
pass it or pain ir
the back is alsc
convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge sc
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills everj
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in th<
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every par
of the urinary passage. It corrects inabilit)
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor
wine or beer, and overcomes that*unpleasan
necessity of being compelled to go offer
during the day, and to get up many time:
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soor
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases

decided to gin and wrap your cotton, for tills season, for fl.10 per bale for new Arrow
Ties and heavy bagging, and S1.00 per bale with factory bagging and ties. 1 do tills
at a sacrifice to help my friends anil customers all I can. In addition to the above
low price for ginning l will gin every Sixth Rale for any of my customers Free of
Charge. 1 will buy all tho cotton ginned at my gin* and will pay the highest market
price for the same. My gins will be under the management of J. Ellio Sarratt.
Remember 1 am still in the market for Cotton Seed, and will pay highest cash
price for any quantity.
I also have a big lot of Bagging and Ties cheap.
Also a big lot of Wagons, to be sold cheap, and lot of Buggies to arrive soon.
Also Mowers and Rakes to cut and save your pea. vines and hay, and Disc Har
rows to prepare your lands for grain.
Also a big lot of Guano and Acid for your grain.
Also Lumber of any kind, forest Fine or Oak. Leave your bill at my store and It
will bo tilled promptly and tit lowest market prices.
Also a big stock of goods here and at my Goforth Store, all of which will be sold
cneap.
Don’t buy a pair of Shoes until you see my line and get my prices.
Yours to please,
