NEW ENGUND COT TON MlNOflCTOOEOS Arrived in Gaffney Saturday on their Southern Tour. GUESTS OF SOUTHERN. They Went Through the Btg Mill of the OafTney Manufacturing Company and W r ere Both Surprised and Delighted With the Magnitude and the Work of the Mill. A large party of New England manufacturers, members of the New England Cotton Manufacturers’ As sociation. arrived in the city Satur day afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. The party is making a tour through the South as the guests of the Southern Railway Company and were under the personal direction of Mr. M. V. Richards, the progressive industrial agent of the road. The party was met at the Southern depot by Presi dent H. D. Wheat, Secretary J. G. Wardlaw and Superintendent E. B. Wilbur, of the Gaflney Manufactur ing Company and escorted to Lip scomb's Hotel, where they dined as the guests of the officials of the Gaff ney Manufacturing Company. The members of the party are all practi cal mill men. After luncheon the party was escorted to the Gaffney Manufacturing Company’s big mill and conducted through the estab lishment. Several of the members had been through the South before but the majority had not, therefore they were not prepared for the reve lations that met them. Numbers of them expressed surprise at the mag nitude and completeness of the plant and were delighted with the manner in which the work was carried on. They spent about two hours iu the city and then left for Spartanburg. They spent Sunday in Asheville and yesterday in Columbia, leaving to day for their homes in New England. The following named compose the party: Messrs. George F. Whitten, agent of the Amory Manufacturing Com pany, Manchester, N. H.; 0. P. Truesdell, Boston; J. C. Aitken, Taftville, Conn.; Alfred M. W’hiting, Oakdale, Mass.; George R. Babbitt, Providence, R. I.; D. W. Gray, J. P. Wild, George F. Farrell, Utica, N. Y.; W. R. Noonet Boston; I. I. Shiers, Cheshire, England; Fred. A. Flather, Lowell, Mass.; J. A. Brag- don and wife and Mrs. Miller and Miss Shaw, of New York city; J. F. Hamlet, 8. B. Ashley, Fall River Mass.; S. S. Nostrand and Dr. Saw yer, New York city; A. 8. Wattles, Canton, Mass.; George B. Cocker, Philadelphia; Edgar E. Merrow, Providence; Arthur F. Gray, Boston ; G. E. Tillinghast, Providence; Frame H. Hitchcock, special agent of the United States Agricultural Depart ment, Washington, D. C.; D. E. Mc« Gaw, A. W. Jones and John Hill, of Atlanta, Ga.; Leroy Springs, Lan caster, S. C.; G. W. Robertson, Dan* ville, Va., and C. W. Davis, Augusta, Ga. President Wheat and Superintend- ant Wilbur, of the Gaffney Manu facturing Company, are both mem bers of the New England Associa tion. as well as the Southern Cot ton Spinners Association. They are always delighted to meet other man ufacturers and they are especially pleased to be able to show them through their mill as it has a reputa tion all over the country as being one of the best conducted p.ants in the South. The special train bearing the party stopped opposite the Limestone Mills for a^minute to get a glimpse of the new mill, but as the machinery is not yet in operation they did not get out. Next year they will have the pleasure of looking through it. Among the party were several newspaper men representing textile journals published in New England. Death of Editor Frank 1*. Beard. Wc take the following from the Aiken Journal and Review in regard to the sudden death of Mr. Frank P. Beard: “Mr. Frank P. Beard, editor and proprietor of the Graniteville News, died very suddenly yesterday morn ing while on the Charleston train en- route from Augusta to Graniteville or Aiken. He boarded the train while it was crossing Broad street iu Augusta and took a seat, and shortly afterwards expired, so suddenly that a passenger seated in the same seat with him, we are informed, did not know it. The conductor discovered that Mr. Beard was dead when be called on him for bis ticket. The body was taken off the train at Warren* ville and Ccy >ner Lee notified. Mr. Beard was in Aiken Monday and appeared in usual health. The writer had <juite a lengthy conversa tion with him about eight o’clock Monday evening. He took the 9.20 night train for Augusta. Mr. Beard's family lived in North Augusta, whither, we presume, his body has been sent for Interment. We tender to bis afflicted family our sinoerest sympathy in this their hour of sore affliction. Peace to blsashes.” KriimrkwMf Kruoua. Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, III., makes the statement, that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; stis was treated for a month by her family physician, hut grew worse. He told her she was a hope less victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption; she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself henefftted from first dose. She continued its use and af ter taking six bottles, found herself sound and well; now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was—Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at Cherokee Drug Com pany. Only 50 cents and $1.00, every bottle guaranteed, A BiutnrM Change. A business change that will Interest a good many people In Gaffney was made last week when Dr. W. C. Hamrick sold bis interest in the Cherokee Drug Company to Dr. W’of- ford Humphries and Dr. Charles Jef feries. Heretofore Messrs. Hamrick and Jefferies have been the proprie tors, but on account of the demands made on Dr. Hamrick’s time by the Limestone Mills the latter determined to sell out his Interests. The Chero kee Drug Co. have been doing busi ness in this city for several years and have built up a good business by honest and liberal business dealings, and while there has been a change iu the ownership there will be no mate rial change in the management of the business, as Dr. Humphries has been connected with the establish ment in the capacity of prescription clerk for several years and is well ac quainted with every detail of the business. The Ledger predicts for the new firm the same degree of suc cess that has attended the old, and wishes for Dr. Hamrick a successful career as a cotton manufacturer. It was said at tne War Depart ment, at Washington, that no fear is felt of an outbreak of yellow fever among troops in Cuba. An island discovered in Belgia Strait by the Belgica polar expedition in 1898 has been named for Mayor Van Wyck, of New York City. Newport society’s latest fad is to run to fires. r#?ir iT Women suffer ing from female troubles and weakness, and from irregular or painful men* .sea, ought not to lose hope if doctors cannot Ihelpthem. Phy sicians are so busy with other diseases that they do not un derstand fully the peculiar ail ments and the delicate organism of woman. What the sufferer ought to do is to give a fair trial to BRA DFIELD'S Female Regulator which is the true cure provided by Nature for all female troubles. It is the formula of a physician of the highest standing, who devoted his whole life to the study of the dis tinct ailments peculiar to our moth ers, wives and daughters. It is made of soothing, healing, strengthening herbs and vegetables, which have been provided by a kindly Nature to cure irregularity in the menses, Leu- corrhcea. Falling of the Womb, Nerv ousness. Headache and Backache. In fairness to herself and to Brad* field's Female Regulator, every suffering woman ought to give it a trial. A large $i bottle will do a wonderful amount of good.
