Next Thursday evening Mr. G Le- Forest Wood, delineator of characler and dialect reader, will appear at the opera house. The Ledger feels con fident in saying Mr. Wood will give an instructive and amusing entertain ment. The universal opinon of press and pulpit is that Mr. Wood’s enter tainment is among the best of that class of entertainments. The follow ing are some of the press notices Mr. Wood has received : “G. LeForest Wood gave a very pleasing entertainment last evening at the Presbyterian chapel, which was well attended.” ‘‘Those who had the good fortune to hear him are earnest in their praise of his efforts.” ‘‘For many years the entertain ment given by Alva Heywood has been the standard by whitdi similar attractions have been judged and this one is said to be fully equal to the one so long quoted as the best.” ‘‘As an impersonator, Mr. Wood has striking and remarkable versatile gifts. Characters which the ordinary- reader wouid not see, were brought before the audience clearly outlined and made to deliver with new reve lation the speeches one has often read, without feeling their power. His selections were of the highest order, and in some of them sermons of rare merit were recognized. Those who heard him desire to hear him again and again and if he makes a return date for next season, as ho may, the chapel or some larger hall should be filled to hear him.”—Daily Record, Oswego, N. V., Oct. 3rd. 11)00. “The entertainment given by Mr. G. LeForest Wood at the M. E church Tuesday evening was a rare treat to the people of this village who were so fortunate as to attend. Mr. Wood was greeted by a good sized audience, who thoroughly appreciated all the speaker said and did. As an impersonator and delineator of character he is a genius. He is also master of many different dialects. His selections were of a high order, filled with humor and pathos. He delighted hie audience for an hour and a.hulf. Should Mr. Wood return to Fultonville at some future time he would be greeted by a much larger audience. The receipts for the even ing amounted to $29 30.”—Fulton ville. N. Y., Aug. Kith, 1900. “The entertainment given in the Methodist Episcopal church last evening by Professor G. LeForest Wood, was a financiul and artistic success. Professor Wood was capital in his dialect and character sketches and sustained his high reputation as an impsrsonator. The net receipts go into the parsonage fund of the church.”—Daily Sarigan, N. Y., Aug. 1st, 1900. Popular VUltora lu the Cltjr. Dr. and Mrs. Fort entertained from Tuesday until Thursday of last week Misses Lyles and Massey and Messrs. J. W. Dunovant and T. J. Martin, all of Chester. Wednesday evening an impromptu dance was given at Par ish’s Hotel, complimentary to the popular visitors, in which many of the young people of the city took part. The affair was a very pleasant one and highly enjoyed by the merry makers. Tbs visiting ladies and gentlemen have returned to their homes. Delegates to B. V. P. I'. The B. Y. P. U.

THE BATTERY! Not the kind of BATTERY Jackson used at New Orleans. That Battery you will remember was composed of cotton bales and was intended to break the force of British bullets and shield the Americans from the shot from English guns. THE BATTERY I wish to speak of is intended to break the force of high prices and shield the citizens of Gaffney from big profits on Hats, Shoes, Dress Goods, Clothing, Notions, Underwear, Etc. The enormous outlet I have for merchandise enables me to purchase direct from manufacturers, thus avoiding the middle man’s percentage; besides we buy tons of goods every year at half cost from assignees of merchants who have failed or are on the verge of bankruptcy, from railroad wrecks at 50c on the dollar, from administrators authorized to sell for half, and from every source where HARD SPOT CASH can bring them in at under price. •- THE BATTERY will open fire about April first. + Watch for our circulars and quotations. They will prove equal to fire in a camp and will scatter high prices to the forewinds THE BATTERY, TIE CHUPEST STORE II TIE PALMETTO STATE. U>. COUI^INS. For Rent.
