Things in and around the mayor's court have been very quiet for the last few days, and the police officers are having quite a protracted ‘‘rest.’' Yesterday morning, however, the monotony was varied a little by one case that attracted more or less at tention. One of our market men bought a hog on Wednesday after noon as he stated, and put it in a lot □ear his house to keep until morning when he intended to kill it for his market. Itsetmstbat this was in violation of a city ordinance which prohibits the keeping of hogs within a certain distance of a dwelling house, and soon after this gentle man hud placed the pork in his lot, he received notice to appear before the mayor next morning. Accord ingly, he came before Mayor Little john yesterday morning and plead not guilty to the charge of having violated the ordinance pertaining to the keeping of hogs in the city. However, from the evidence sub mitted, the mayor felt it his duty to impose upon the accused a line of five dollars An appeal was made to the council, five of whom were pres ent at the time, but they at once sustained the decision of the mayor, and the fine was paid by the owner of the hog. On Tuesday morning a white man was up for disorderly conduct, he having created a disturbance down in the cotton mill district. A num ber of witnesses appeared against him, and he was fined $7.50 or the alternative of twenty days on the streets. The money was paid. An Expert Hoosemover. Mr. W. C. Hopper, our moving bouse mover, has been having quite a rush of business in his line lately, and his contracts ahead are numer ous. He moved several bouses for Mr. J. I. Sarratt last week, a large dwelling house for Mr. Lem Blanton, about four miles above the city, a school house or two and several smaller buildings. He had a con tract for moving Dr. Nesblfe’s dwell ing boute on Rutledge street, but the Doctor decided to let his build ing remain on its present site, for awhile, at least. Mr. Hopper does his work thor oughly ‘and moves everything with the house except the lot on which it stands. The Carolina Spartan, in its last issue, pays thie tribute to Mr. Hop per’s skill and promptness of action in the house-rolling business: “When it comes to house moving W. C. Hopper, of Gaffney, is hard to beat. He can move anything in the shape of a house that is not clinched in the gronnd. He moves barns, stables, dwelling homes, frame honses, log houses, or boasSV of any shape or size. Then he is not' al ways about it. All you have to do is to show him the houses and the place to put them and he will get them there in short order." The Kltoda Koyul Show*. Speaking of the Kboda Royal Shows which are to be in Gaffney next Mon day, the Spartanburg Herald of Thurs day says: “Pedestrians on Main street yester day afternoon were startled to see what appeared to be a troop of U. S. cavalry galloping down the street, but upon investigation they asoer tained, however, that it was Capt. D. W. Winslow and his detachment of Rough Riders who open an engage ment here today with the great Rhoda Royal Shows. The Boyntons, the famous Euro pean aerialists, are among the new arrivals to join the show. Everything about the grounds looks in first olass shape and the indica tions are that it will be one of the best shows ever seen in Spartanburg. They remain three days, April 4, 5 and 6, and will give two performan ces each day, afternoon and night.” En*ter Egg Hunt. Mrs. W. C.

Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy when my son was suffering with r vere cramps and was given up as beyond hope by my reg ular physician, who stands high in his profession.

Our continued method of value giving continues to grow more popular among tlio Gaffney and Cherokee people. It is not that they can’t buy cheaper goods. Oh, yes; plenty of them offered everywhere, but they do not get the value. Low prices do not mean cheap quality along with the price. Good Price, Good Quality, Go hand in hand, and that is the only true way of economy. 14 Your Spring Hat You want with snap and style—up-to-date in every respeett You get them that way here.
