A Market Man Pay* Five Dollars for Keep
ing a Hog.
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.”

0. E. Wilkins’ Store News.
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.
