* Thousands Hare Kidney Trouble and Don’t Know it. How To Find Ont. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty four hours; a sediment or set tling indicates an ! unhealthy condi tion of the kid neys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of kid ney trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and blad der arc out of order. What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra- ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won derful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

DEATH IN THE CITY. K«v. D. .1. Patrick Nuccutubed to Typhoid Kevcr tVcdncHdav MornliiK. One of the saddest deaths I lull we have been called upon to mention in a long time occurred In thin city Wed nesday morning when lt> v. I). J. Patrick departed this life tit the resi dence of Mr. D. J. Holt, just below the (iallney cotton mill. Mr. Patrick came to (iafluey on Dec. 8th to fill the pastorate of the Second Methodist church and the (Jaifney circuit. He left the city on the 241h and went to Monck’s Coiner, where on the 27th he was happily married to a Miss Avinger, of Berkely'county. Ho was unwell at the time of his marriage, and it was postponed a few hours on account of his not being able to be up at the ap pointed hour. ’ He returned to Cafl- ney on the 28th of December and went to bed immediately upon bis arrival at Mr. Holt’s. He continued to grow worse, and just two weeks from the day his illness began he breathed his last, about ha'f past four o’clock Wednesday morning, ty phoid fever being the cause. His home was in Summerville, and to that place his body was taken for burial, accompanied by his sorrowing bride of two weeks and by bis brother, who had come up to attend him during his sickness. Mr. Patrick was only twenty-nine years of age and a faithful disciple of the Savior whose cause he advocated. He was a good preacher, a fluent speaker and a conscientious man, and had made a favorable impression upon those who had formed his ac quaintance during his short stay in our midst. His new charge on this circuit embraced the Second Metho dist in this city and four others in the country, one of them being at (xrassy Pond, and he wili be missed by them all. The Spartanburg Journal says that Mr. Patrick spent several years at Wofford College and that he was for three years a member of the South Carolina Conference. To the heart-broken young wife and to the sorrowing family we ex tend our deepest sympathy. A Ueograpiiy 1’itrty. The Misse# Ross extended the hospitalities of their elegant home on Frederick street to a number of select friends Tuesday evening in quite a unique and novel manner. It was a “Geography Party,” which was a new departure from the getieral lino of amusements heretofore in dulged in by the young people of the city. Dainty invitations in the shape of a globe were issued and the re cipient was requested to represent some geographical sketch by means of an accessory. On the menu card each dish was represented by the name of some town or country and prizes were of fered to the ones who deciphered the first, second and third/ largest number of dishes. Miss Minnie Car- roll was awarded first prize, Mr. Robert Monroe second, and Miss May Harris third. There were about thirty young peo ple present and it is needless to say that every one enjoyed the affair im mensely. A .Wi'HKuriiiK Pw.ty. The ladies of the Second Baptist church are going to give a unique entertainment in the basement of the church Saturday night. It will be known as a measuring party, and each individual who attends will be expected to pay for admission ac cording to their beigth, that is three cents for each foot and one cent for each odd inch. Thus it will be seen that the person six feet high will get in for less than the one four feet and eleven inches. A cordial invitation is extended to everybody to attend. There will be refreshments and other attractions. The proceeds are to go towards paying for some repairs to be made on the church. The Decree Filed. The decree of Circuit Judge J C. Kiugh, in the case of W. C. Carpen ter, plaintiff against Luke Corry, de fendant. has been filed in the clerk’s office. This was an equity case, argued at the fall term of the court of common pleas, and involved the point, hitherto not passed upon di rectly by tha courts of this state, whether or not a court of equity can correct a deed made by a mortgagee to himself and signed in his own name. Judge Kiugh decided in favor of the plaintiff, Mr. Carpen ter, who was represented by Messrs. Butler & Osborne and J E. Webster. Mr. J. C. Jefferies represented the defendant, Corry. •lake Carpenter Camp to Meet, Notice is given that the Jake Car penter Camp, U. C. V., will meet in the Limestone College auditorium on General Leo’s birthday at 11 o’clock a. m. All veterans and their sons and daughters are conF v invited and earnestly reques’ ^ to attend the meeting. It is desired that the sons come prepared to organize a camp of Sons of Veterans and the daughters to organize a chanter of Daughters of the Confederacy. Everyone with a spark of patriotism in his soul should make every effort to be nresent. CiatTiiey's Color*. At a recent meeting of the city council Alderman George Cotton introduced a resolution adopting as city colors purple and gold. The resolution was carried and hereafter on occasions of celebrations the colors of purple and gold will he worn. Alderman George is a “honey.” Ask him about *be joke Lucius Randall played on • m some months ago. But George knows how to take a joke as well us how to give one. PERSONAL PARAGRPHS.

We are pained to learn that Mrs. M E Staggers, matron at Limestqne College, is desperately ill at the homo of her daughter, Mrs. Dr. VV. VV. Rigby, in Hpartarburg. Mrs. Stag gers is a most estimable woman and we hope for her speedy recovery. At a recent meeting of the directors of the National Bank of Gaffney Mr. Maynard Smyth was elected assistant cashier. This is the proper recog nition of an estimable young gentle man by one of the foremost institu tions of Gaffney, and wo have no hesitancy in saying that it is our opinion that the promotion will prove mutually satisfactory. Mr. VV. Gill Hollis, who has been living in Gaffney for some time, board- it g with Mr. and Mrs. H. K. Osborne and taking music lessons under Prof. Wuue R.

Couuty Coiuiul**ioner* Meet. The last meeting of the old board of county commissioners held their regular meeting in the court house Monday and Tuesday, which con sumed the greater part of those two days. The business disposed of was mostly of a routine nature, and the most important matter that they passed action upon was a recommen dation to the legislature to reduce the tax assessment for Cherokee one mill for the entire county, thus mak ing the amount fifteen mills for that portion of the county taken from Union and Spartanburg and fifteen and one-half mills for that from the York side. They also voted to have a system of waterworks placed in the court house, which will be quite a conven ience for the attachees of that build ing. A new board will soon bo ap pointed. Dining n Talkov. Seven people make a very comfort able company for a dinner, provided the seven are well selected. Two serv ants, even one, can attend to seven very nicely. Aud with that number the talk cau be general. It can be, but it Is not always so. There are so many people of many words in this world that it is difficult to get seven men and women together without Including one monop olist. When such a monopolist is a woman, her sex does not make her more attractive. Such a person is a “weariness, a fever and a fret.” The most, however. Is responsible If such be included at a small dinner. The large dinner is tbe place for such a person; then only two persons, the one on either side, can be made miserable. There is an Idea In that—a fiendish one, however. If it be desirable to punish two of your friends, give a large dinner and put tbe most lusistent bore In town between the two.—John Gilmer Speed in Woman's Home Companion. A Child's Tribute. The most touching memorials made by bands are not the statues, tablets and Inscriptions erected over tbe dead, but the simpler offerings of spontane ous affection. In the crypt of St. Paul’s cathedral In London lies buried Lord Nelson, chief among the naval heroes of Eng land. Leaning against the marble tomb is a small, square, perforated card board worked as a sampler, which for years has remained there undisturbed. It bears these words, spelled in worsted letters: “In loving memory of dear Lord Horatio Nelson. ‘Thy will be done,’ ” and was brought thither by a child whose heart was In this tribute to his hero. The rules forbid the incumbrance of tbe stones by miscellaneous offerings, but the verger stood by and watched the offense committed and the authori ties have never ordered this true “In Memoriam” to be removed.—Youth’s Companion. Shooting Affair iu Mis*l**ippl. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Choctaw, Miss., Dec. 29.—Christ mas is about over. We bad some rain last night and it is still cloudy. There were a number of hogs kill ed here just before Christmas and cold weather will be nice on them now. A shooting affair occurred in our quiet little town yesterday. Marlon Bigeramstaff shot a negro in tbe shoulder. Both have been arrested. Bigeramstaff has relatives near Blacksburg. I think he is a nephew of Mrs. T. A. Price, who came to this State when Gaffney was in its In fancy. Mrs. Price was raised in the neighborhood of Antioch church. The writer is suffering with the rheumatism at this writing. 4. J. B. A Prominent Cblcngu Woman Speak*. Prof. Roxa Tyler, of Chicago, Vice- President Illinois Woman’s Alliance, in speaking of Cbamberlain’s Cough Remedy, says; “I suffered with a severe cold this winter which threat ened to ran into pneumonia. I tried different remedies but I seemed to grow worse and the medicine upset my stomach. A friend advised me to try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and I found It was pleasant to take and it relieved me at once. I am now entirely recovered, saved a doctor’s bill, time and suffering, and I will never be without this splendid medicine again.” For sale by Chero kee Drug Co.

The Famous Hnnilniwster Will he lu Tliut City Nest Thursday. An Interested observer of theSouda concerts this season has umdo the discovery that the popular hamluiHS- ter and composer has started a sec ond edition in hla famous collection of medals. Instead of the glittering array of bejeweled decorations that formerly covered completely the manly chest of the "Marc h King.” there now may he seen four simple medals depending from vari-col* ored ribbons. The first—and tbe one that Sousa prizes most—is the sprock et-shaped badge that was the official emblem of the Sixth Army Corps In the Spanish-American war, hanging from the American colors. It will be remembered that Sousa was appoint ed musical director with the rank of Captain on tbe staff of Major-Gen eral James H. Wilson, but the war closed before the Sixth Corps was called into active service and the bandmaster had no opportunity to achieve martial glory on tbe field of battle. The corps badge was sent to Sousa by General Wilson at Paris be fore the General was ordered to China. Another handsome souvenir is the simple gold medal that was struck to commemorate the great success of the Sousa concerts in Munich last summer, which bangs from a cross bar, bearing the Bavarian colors, blue and white, in enamel. Tbe largest of tbe decorations is the Grand Cross of the Royal Academy at Hainault, Belgium, which came to the conductor after his successes in Brussels and Liege. This cross de pends from aYibbon of black, yellow, white and red stripes. Another medal was presented by the Carnival Society of Cologne, and has a red and white ribbon, the colors of tbe Rhine. Sousa is coming here for one grand concert, with the great band that won such conspicuous triumphs in Europe, appearing at Spartanburg on Thursday, January 17th. The as sisting soloists will be Blanche Duf- field, soprano, and Bertha Bucklin, violinist. Mr. l.lghtfoot and a Thief. The Raleigh News and Observer gives the following little adventure which happened to Rov. E. M. Light- foot, of Waynesville, N. C., not long since. As Mr. Lightfoot is known in Gaffney we publish it for the benefit of his friends here : “A Story comes from Waynesville of a preacher, a gun and a thief, with no damage reported. It seems that Christmas night Rev. Mr. Lightfoot, pnstor of the Waynesville Baptist church, was returning home quite late from a church entertainment, when he found a man making free with his woodpile. Having been an noyed in this way quite often of late, Mr. Lightfoot embraced his oppor tunity. Going into the house he got his gun and let fly freely in the di rection of the intruder. The man called out not to shoot that he was wounded, but as the preacher advanced to him be fled and Mr. Lightfoot indulged in one more shot. Nothing has been heard from the stranger.” Local Cotton Report. The following are tbe prices paid for cotton in Gaffney today: Good Middling 9:50 Middling 9:87£ Joshua Harrison, who was a sailor on the Texas in the Santiago battle, was sent to New York state prison for 15 years for killing Clark Johnson in a saloon brawl.

It is pleasant and safe for children to take and always cures. It is intended espec ially for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough, and is the best med icine made for these diseases. There is not the least danger in giving it to children for it contains no opium or other injurious drug and may be given as confidently to a babe as to an adult. For sale by Cherokee Drug Co.
