attention to the fact that two edi
torials appeared in the same issue
of tliis paper on .Mcl.aurin's Char
lotte speech, and that the said edi
torials were apparently conllicting
in sentiment and opinion, and the
Mail thinks that an explanation is
due both to the public and to The
Ledger itself.
The Mail is right in its view of the
matter and also in its hypothesis of
the modus operand!. The two edi
torials were written by two different
men, the first, by the regular edi
torial writer, the second by the pro
prietor and manager, and the decided
coniiict in opinion was not noted un
til both articles were in print.
Ttie truth is, the manager was at
the banquet in Charlotte and heard
McLaurin’s speech. He also heard,
saw, felt, tasted, and swallowed
many other things which tickled and
ased him prodigiously, and he
ne home full to overflowing—not
,h wine or strong drink—but with
» milk of human kindness, while
heart was bounding with love and
niration for ail mankind.
AFTER HOURS.
Love letters seem to be all the go.
e love letters of Victor Hugo have
mi published. This was a French
leme. Then England further
riched literature by furnishing
,ove Letters of an English Woman.”
Uoup de grace, American of course,
me next in the form of ‘ Love Let
's of a Liar.”
There is a great opportunity now
some one to gain notoriety by
iting Love Letters of a Fool. This
»uld be universal.
have a patent on this title, but
II sell it for thirty-eight cents. I
mid write it myself but am not
alified.
It will afford me great pleasure
wever, to publish any old left-over
re letters jou may have instock,
book form, under this title,
lust think how pleasant it would
to read a love letter you had writ-
> five or ten years ago and know
it some hundred or so of your
ends were reading it at the same
ne.
For instance, in my book, turn to
iter No. 50.
The head of the letter would read,
jOve letter received by Miss
'-'i Mr. .
Kindly sipply your name and that
aoiiid out of date sweetheart to
tain the proper effect.
Mrs Ela Wheeler Wilcox says burn
ur love letters. Max O’Rell says
n’t write them, because they are
ways written during a moment of
mporary insanity.
Both are right. If you get a love
tier burn it and never, never write
e.
When the gentle and mysterious
ssion fils your teirt to over-
iwing be sure it dosen’t flow over
a sheet of paper. Its so danger-
is. '
Go and b&ve a tooth pulled. If
at dosen’t relieve you have another
died. This is painful, but not so
linful as having your leg pulled in
breed) of promise suit, etc.
Tbe sweetest thing I have found

regret being unable to say where

I.ook Out for lllui.
There is a slick swindler abroad iu
c land and we warn our people to
)k out for him. He gives bia name
Johnson or Thompson, and bis
an is to select some good farmer
lose notes can be discounted, ask
tn to accept the agency for an agri-
Rural book, stating at the aame
ne that all tbe farmer has to do is
accept the agency, as lie or h!a
use will send a man to do the can-
•sing, but the farmer must tell tbe
ent who to solicit from and must
i the collecting in the fall. In re-
rn for this confidence imposed the
ent asks the victim to give him his
ite for a certain sum of money as a
larantee that he will do the col*
sting and turn over to the concern
e amount due them. Tbe viotim
ves tbe note; the swindler rushes
the nearest bank, haa tbe note dia-
unted, and that is the last seen of
m. When tbe note falla due the
ctim has it to pay, and be never
es the swindler or bis agent. This,
brief, is the plan. If a sliok talk
ing individual ahould approach yon
on the subject of accepting an agency
in which there is no work and a
promise of big pay and ask you to
give him your note aa a guarantee of
K>d faith, invite him to go to a cli-
ate warmer than this on tbe fourth
' July. This same Individual, or
>e very much like him, waa oper-
Jng in Tennessee last year and vie-
mixed a brother of Mr. Susong, who

tertained a number of their young

was in the nature of a bridal party

Karly CIohidk.
The time has arrived for early
closing and it would be well for our
business men to consider tbe matter.
J. C. Lipscomb A- Bro., began tbe
early closing movement several days
ago independent of any one else. J
W. Tolleson has always been an
early closer, and it does seem to us
that the merchants themselves would
lose nothing by joining in an organ
ized movement to close their estab
lishments at 7 o’clock. Many of
them do not sell enough after dark
to pay fortLeiriil, and their cus
tomers would soon adjust themselves
to the new order of things and make
their purchases before the closing
hour.
A Colored Mini Injuri-d.
One of the colored men who are
putting up the large telephone pcLs
in the city was painfully hurt yester
day morning by exerting himself too
much in trying to stay a pole that
was about to come down. They were
attempting to raise the pole at the
time, and it either slipped, or became
unmanageable in some way and too
much weight was thus forced upon
him. Dr. Crawley was summoned
and examined the injured man. Xo
bones were found to be broken, but
he was hurt internally. Arthur
Johnson is the name oftheinjund
man and he does not live in this
city.

‘A RIVAL BY REQUEST.”
Til*
I nlon Dntiiiulic ('lull Will \ lull OulT-
in‘jr Nr*l Tiiomluy KvfniiiK.
In rt’gutd to the I'oion Dramatic
Club and the piny which they are to
present here next Tuesday night the
I'nioti Times says :
"The I’nion Dramatic Club, ac
cording to announcement, played "A
Rival by Request” in the opera house
lust Friday night. They were greet
ed by an unusually large audience.
The play was rather a complicated
affair in which the young bachelor,
Walter Pierson, found himself en
gaged to two young ladies. In his
effort lo extricate himself from the
tangle he induced another rnun to act
tlie role of rival. This man was mis
taken to he a newly arrivtd foreign* r,
Lord McMullen, whom Pierson’s
friend, hmythe, had asked him to en
tertain, in* (6mythe) hud also sent
his vaiet, Muggins, to Pierson, .flug-
gins arrived first, was received and
treated us Lord McMullen, while
McMullen was received and treated as
a valet. McMullen, however, fell in
love with Miss Eliza Briggs, one of
the engaged ladies, and patiently
bore the persecution until he won ht r
love, and she renounces all claim to
Pierson at d accepts Lord McMullen,
then the deception which Muggins
hud been practicing was discovered
and Pierson makes due apology to
Lord McMullen who had, however,
brought about just what Pierson
wished.
The play even exceeded the expec
tation of the audience and was an all
round good show. We have seen
high priced shows not so good. We
understand that the Fnion Dramatic
Club arc contemplating taking a trip
and playing in some of our neighbor
ing cities,{and we can say that a treat
is in store for the citizens of the
towns where they decide to play.”
In a personal letter to the manager
of The Ledger, Mr. L G. Young says:
"The Fnion Dramatic Club present
a fine performaiee and, in many re- i
speeds, fur ahead of the troupes who J
travel regularly. Any recommenda
tion or promise you may make as lo i
the show, in the bounds of reason,
will be fully sustained by the per
formance they will give. In fact, it
is a really fine cast and would do
credit to any traveling troupe.
There is no reason why our towns
should not encourage home talent,
and a dramatic club in both towns
could make a closer social bond by
exchanging visits. Union is about to
make the first move and it is up to
your hustling little city to give them
a good house and send us as good
cast in another play. Agitate the
question and let us have some fun
this summer. Xo need to allow
bast-ball to monopolize everything.
Any special attention shown my
friend, Mr. Geo. M. Wright, the high
cock-o-’lorum of the aggregation,
will be fully appreciated.”
Tbe Ledger joins in tbe sentiment
that we should make this occasion a
social cventr. Quite a number of the
cast are well known in Gaffuey and
we would not be doing ourselves jus
tice .if we did not give our Union
neighbors a rousing reception.
A YiiluaDle Mule Die* Suddenly.
Mr. W. (). Lipscomb had the mis
fortune to lose one of his fine mules
Tuesday out on his farm near tbe
city. The animal, which was an ex
ceptionally fine one, was being plow
ed at tbe time, and died suddenly of
heart disease. Yesterday Dr. B. R.
Brown and Messrs. Poag and Millin,
of the Gaffney Live Stock Company,
went out to Mr. Lipscomb’s farm and
made a post-mortem examination of
the mule. It was found that the an
imal’s heart was enlarged to the size
of a peck measure, and that was the
cause of its sudden death.
The mule wu» one of a pair owned
by Mr. Lipscomb and was a particu
larly valuable animal.
Found.
We have been handed a purse, con
taining a small sum of money, that
was found on the street. The owner

There is no poison so highly contagious,

Mra. Thankful Orllla Hurd Uvea iu the beautiful village of Brighton,
Livingston Co., Micb. This venerable and highly respected lady was born In
the year 1812, tbe year of the great war, in llebron. Washington Co., New
York. She came to Michigan in 1840. the year of "Tippecanoe aud Tyler
too.’’ All her faculties are excellently preserved, and possessing a very re
tentive memory, her mind Is full of Interesting reminiscences of her early
life, of the early days of the State of Michigan aud the Interesting and re
markable people she has met, aud the stirring events of which she was a wit
ness. But nothing in her varied uud manifold recollections are more mar
velous and worthy of attention than are her experiences In the use of
JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA. Mrs. Hurd Inherited a tendency and pre
disposition to scrofula, that terribly destructive blood taint which has cursed
and is cursing the lives of thousands ami marking thousands more as vic
tims of the death angel. Transmitted from generation to generation, it la
found in neary every family in one form or another. It may make its ap-
pearanoe In dreadful running sores, in unsightly swellings In the neck or
goitre, or in eruptions of varied forms. Attacking tin* mucous membrane, It
may be known as catarrh In the head, or developing In the lungs It may be,
and often is, the prime cause of consumption.
Speaking of her case, Mrs. Hurd says: "I was troubled for many ^ears
with a bad skin disease. My arms an,] limbs would break out in a mass of
•ores, discharglug yellow matter. My neck began to swell and became very
unsightly in appearance. My body was covered with scrofulous eruptions..
My eyes were alst^greatly inflamed and weakened, and they pained me very
much. My blood was in a very bad condition and my head ached severely
at frequent Intervals, and I had no appetite. I had sores also in my ears. I
was in a miserable condition, I had tri,«d every remedy that had been recom
mended, and doctor after doctor had failed. One of the best physicians in
the state told me I must die of scrofulous consumption, as internal abcessea
were beginning to form. I at length was told of Dr. Johnston, of Detroit, and
his famous Sarsaparilla. 1 tried a Iwttle, more ar. an experiment than any
thing else, as I had no faith In it, and greatly to my agreeable surprise, I
began to grow better. You can be sure I kept on taking it. I to k a great

a io- nevt>r been troubled with scrofula since. Of course an old lady
of 83 years is not a young woman, but I have had remarkably good hcaltlx
since then: and I firmly believe that JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA is the
greatest Wood purifier and the best medicine In the wide world, both for
scrofula and as a spring medicine.” This remarkably interesting old lady did
not lok to be more than sixty, and she repeated several times. “I believe my
life was saved by JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA.’’
