NOTES AND COMMENTS. Senator Teller announces that free silver is not dead. The fools are not all dead either. The Florence Times recommends that Judge Hudson be re-instated on the bench and that Judge W. H. Wallace be sent to the United States Senate. That is exactly what ought to be done. The reports from the Czar of Rus sia are conflicting, but there is little doubt of his serious illness. The whole world watches his case with intense anxiety, for his death may be followed by consequences that will be appalling to Europe and in a measure to the whole civilized world. Winter is at last upon us again. Sleet and snow were reported from Greenville last Monday morning and the w'eather here was pinching and disagreeable all day. Everybody should now see to it that his supply of fuel is convenient and abundant, and all those who own live stock should provide for their comfort as far as possible. Don’t stint the cat tle in food, because they are just in from the fall pastures and are look ing well. See that they have com fortable quarters and a generous sup ply of food. Such a course will prove true economy in the end. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The sheriff of Lincoln county, Col orado, in which the negro, John Porter, was recently cremated by a mob, writes a strong letter to the district attorney in which he pro tests against having the blame of the lynching fixed upon him. He says that men of ell political parties par ticipated in it—that they forgot that they were republicans or democrats and remembered only that they were husbands and fathers. He says fur thermore that there is no use of pros ecuting any of ths lynchers, for a jury cannot be had in the county that would harm a single one of them. We wonder how some of the uoutb-hating newspapers of the north will digest the sheriff’s letter. As the south becomes more thickly populated and more assimilated to northern civilization, we may expect the same labor troubles that prevail in the north. A big strike is now on in Tampa, Fla., involving up to this time 1,400 raeu of different trades. There is .much inttamatory talk among the ^strikers, and serious threats are made against the men of other orders, who refuse to quit work. Just here the strikers put themselves in the wrong and deprive themselves of the sympathy and moral support of all fair-minded people. These labor troubles are now the problem of the opening century. As capital increase the breach between it and labor widens. As the money power becomes stronger, it is natural that it should become more arrogant, and as labor becomes more pinched and straitened, it is natural that it should become more restless, turbu- lent, and vindictive. Congress up to this time has shown itself incapable of dealing effectively with labor troubles. It is to be hoped, how ever, that it will yet be able to evolve some equitable plan by which these troubles may be either entirely prevented, or settled on terms equally just to all parties concerned. The prosperity and even the salvation of the country depend on the atability and reliability of an efficient system of labor. To ExclMauge Pulpit*. On next Sunday Rev. B P. Robert- eon, of the First Baptist church, will exchange pulpitis with Rev. D. W. Key, of Greenville; on the second Sunday, Rev. R. F. Treadway, of Shelby, N. C., will preach here in his place, and on the third Sunday, the exchange will be made with Rev. L. M. Roper, of Spartanburg. All of these ministers are pastors of the First Baptist churches in their re spective cities. On tbe'fourth and last Sunday, Mr. Robertson will preach hia farewell sermon from the pulpit of his own church in this city, pnparatory to taking his departure from our midst. An account of his resignation, which goes into effect the first of January, has already been published in these columns. Mr. Robertson has not decided, as yet, where he will local j after leaving Oaffuey. FIGHT AT BLACKSBURG. SHORT LOCAL ITEMS. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. One Convict (luaril Scriotinl}' Shot hikI Another lla<lly Cut. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Blacksiu rg, Nov. 28 —A serious shooting and cutting affair between the head guard of the county con- r'cts by the name of Wilson and an assistant guard named Hughes took place on the edge of town last Mon day night about 7 o'clock. It seems that the county chain gang came hero Saturday and estab lished headquarters at what is known as the “Lime Kiln’’ place, on the edge of town and on the road leading to Cherokee Falls, being the same place where they quartered when here last spring. Everything went along smoothly. But Monday eve ning it is said Wilson was in town trying to talk over the phone to the county supervisor about turning loose a negro convict whose time was al most out and whose condition was such that he disturbed the whole camp at night. He failed to get Mr. Lipscomb and returned to the camp after purchasing some whiskey at the dispensary. In, the meantime, it is said that Hughes came to town and purchasing some whiskey went back to the camp. There the men met, and besides the convicts, was another guard by the name of Coyle. The matter of turning loose the consump tive negro was then discussed. All seemed to be in a good humor, but a few minutes later Wilson and Hughes began to disagree. It is said that some cursing was done and Wilson wont to his tent and dressed. Then he came back and took Coyle to one side and said that he was not going to submit to such an insult as was given him by Hughes and was going to kill him. Coyle tried to dissuade him, telling him that ho must be crazy. The two then went on to the fire, Coyle ahead of Wilson. At the lire was seated Hughes and as Coyle and Wilson reached the fire, Wilson stepped to one side and after saying something to Hughes to the effect that he was going to kill him, com menced firing with a Smith and Wes son 38 ealibru pistol. Five shots were fired, and in the meantime Hughes had gotten out a pocket knifo and had gone for Wilson. During the fight Wilson fell. Coyle tried to part them but they did not stop un til Wilson said something about Hughes cutting him and then Hughes said he would stop if Wilson would give up his pistol. Wilson said he had no pistol and Hughes gave his knife to Coyle and the fight stopped. One of tho trusted convicts was sent at once to town, for Chief of Police Duncan and u doctor. The Chief was soon found and, in company with Dr. Jas. M. Caldwell, went to the place. The next morning your correspon dent, in company with the doctor, visited the seat of war. In a clearing on a hillside, stood the tents. Before one of them was a big fire and to one side was a cot on which Wilson was lying. He certainly presented a pit- jible sight. The doctor looked over the work he had done that cold night out in the open air with just a torch to see by. Everything looked well, con sidering the circumstances. The top of Wilson’s head was a mass of cuts, not a one less than six inches in length. There was also a cut on the left side of the face running from the oar to the chin. On his left arm were two stabs—one near the elbow, the other near the wrist. On the upper and back part of left leg was another stab. The doctor said that he had taken at least fifty stitches. Wilson seemed to be jn good spirits and when the doctor was about to leave him complainedof the stab in his leg. The doctor toid him he had not said anything about it lust night, and Wilson replied: “Well, doctor, to tell you the truth, I got tirid of tell ing you where all the cuts were; it just seemed as if I was a mass of cuts.” In a tent in from o< where Wilson was lying, lay Hughes. The first shot went in his left arm at the el bow and ranged downwards towards the hand, shattering the bone. The doctor took out tbis bullet. The second chut entered his left hip just below the last rib, This bullet has not been taken out, and it is this wound that may cause his death. Hughes was in good spirits, but from what the doctor says, he is in a dan- geroys condition. Both eewtp to regret the trouble, and it is one to be reg^a^ted. From what can be learned these two men came from Abbeville, and have al ways been the beat of friends. f* 4- ?• local Itonm ToocSIiort fora Head Grouped Together.

THANKSGIVING IN GAFFNEY. liuHineHH IIouhi-h Were Cloned and the Churches Held Services. Thanksgiving Day passed off quiet ly, and had much the appearance of Sunday. The business houses gener ally were closed, the postoffice ob served Sunday hours and services were hold in the different churches in the city. Services in the Presbyterian church were conducted entirely by laymen, and members of the different denomi nations were present. Prof. W. F. McArthur superintended the exer cises; Mr. McWhorter read some pas sages from scripture and Prof. Grif fith made a short address. Special and appropriate music had been prepared for the occasion, and it was well rendered by the choir with Mr. Westrope at the organ. Owing to the furperal of Miss Ruby Gaffney the program was somewhat curtailed and the attendance was not so large as it would perhaps have been otherwise; though a large num ber of young ladies from Limestone College came up and helped to swell the congregation. Laymen services were to have been held in the First Baptist church, but on account of the heaters not having been placed in that church just yet, it was decided to have them in the Presbyterian church instead. Ruby Gaffney is Dead. Ruby Gaffney, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Gaffney, of this city, died at the home of her parents Wednesday morning about 4 o’clock, after an illness of six weeke. Miss Gafiney was between thirteen and fourteen years of age, and had for some time been a member of the Bap tist church, and her Christian faith, sweet disposition and lovable charac ter were remarkeble in one so young. Being the only girl, she was idolized by her parents and greatly loved by her brother, the only remaining child, all of whom are much prostrated on ac count of her death. The remains were interred in Oakland cemetery yesterday in the presence of many sorrowing relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. Gaffney have the sympathy of the entire community in their great afftictioh. DratiH-KH Cannot boCnrt'd by local applications, as they cannot reach ‘fio diseased portion of the ear.
