CHEROKEE DRUG CO. w The “Old Maid’s Convention” which was the attraction at the Op era House Friday evening, under the management of the Ladies Aid Soci ety of the First Baptist church, was a grand success, both in the point of furnishing a round of continuous amusement to a delighted audience and in a financial way. The play was witnessed by one of the largest and most select audi ences that has ever been assembled in Gaffney, and everyone, from the oldest to the youngest, highly en joyed every feature of the program. The fair actresses were thoroughly familiar with their parts and con ducted themselves with the ease and abandon of stage veterans, at the same time displaying talent of the highest order. Each one was so much of an artist and acted her part so well that it would be unfair to make special men tion of any particular one. Mr. P. V. Gaffney, in the character of » ‘coon” and Col. T. B. Butler, as pro fessor, added greatly to the amuse ment of the occasion and rendered valuable aid in making the “conven tion” a success. quite a handsome little sum was netted for the church, and much praise is due the ladies for their un tiring efforts in its behalf, as well as for the very creditable entertainment Friday evening. The “Old Maids” who formed the convention were: Mesdames E. B. Wilbur, W. C. Carpenter, Jno. F. Bridges, Hamil ton, W. W. Gaffney, B. L. Hames, L. U. Campbell, Dr. Nesbitt, T. L. Brown, Wm. Phillips, W. C. Ham rick, Harry Dodenhoff, W. H. Good ing; Misses Bessie Kendrick, Fannie Hopper, May Harris, Edna Sarratt, Verna Sarratt, Annie Johnson, An nie Brown. The specialties of the evening were: % Mr. Paul Gaffney, coon; Mrs. Copeland, song; Misses Eva Ross, song; Lucy Barton, skirt dancer, Wilmer Gaffney, recitation; Birdie Crawley, recitation; Rose Johnson, violin; Mr. Both Butler, professor.

Gaffney 1-4ve SsHoclc Go., of tbe seemed by tbe Ili» Honor DifliM'iitiCH .Justice to Saturday Nit;lit Sinners. If the records of the mayor’s court may be taken as an indication, the morals of our c'tizens are growing perceptibly better. There have been no cases of a serious nature in a long time, and only three or four minor ofienses have been on the docket during the past two or three weeks. This speaks well for the city. The police officers are, of course, as vigi lant as ever, but they are having very little to do in the way of making arrests, and this fact is sufficient proof that not much is being done to warrant interference by the city officers. Occasionally, however, some ob streperous fellow will break loose in utter disregard of morals, police officers and everythig else, and suc ceed in getting himself before the city's chief executive. Last Friday there were two minor cases tiied, one for drunkenness and the other for disorderly conduct. The unfortunate who had taken too freely of the ‘ rosy” was fined $d 70 or ten days; the other case was dis missed after a thorough investigation by the mayor. Yesterday morning two young men were up for having engaged in a lit tle d faculty Saturday afternoon without any serious results on either side. After an investigation the charge against one of ihe combatants was dismissed, and the case against the other was continued. The above cases constitute the proceedings in the city court for the last two weeks. Advertisements under this head will be inserted for one cent a.word each inser tion.
