We had the pleasure of a brief but pleoeant visit from Solicitor Henry this morning. J. T. White is going to leave the city. He will go to the country to try his luck at farming. The ferry boat on Broad river at Hicksville, N. C., was carried away by the recent high river. The Saturday Blade of March 1st. gives an illustration of the Tillman and McLaurin fight at Washington. Services are being held in the Pres byterian church nightly preparatory to the big meeting next Friday night. Jones J. Ddrby yesterday paid over to It A. Hankins .f‘25 (MJ on account of a health policy held in the vE na, of which Mr. Darby is agent. There was a big crowd in the city Saturday and business was good. While circumstances would indicate the contrary, merchants report the cash trade good. Genial Charles Petty came up from Orangeburg Saturday to spend his vacation with relatives and friends in and near the city, to whom his an nual visits are always a source of much pleasure. During the thunder storm Thurs day night lightning struck Mr. Law rence Spake’s barn in the southern part of the city and damaged it con siderably, fortunately without injur ing any of bis horses or cattle. The fire alarm was sounded about 7 o’clock Sunday night, but it was soon learned that it was only a chim ney burning out. The colored real team, however, to its credit, made j wrist 8 inches and weighs 147 pounds. May FeittltHl Notes. The business arrangements of the coming festival of music under the auspices of Limestone College will be managed by a committee composed of our most prominent and repre sentative business men, among whom are, Mr. J. A. Carroll, Mr. W. C. Car penter, Mr. F, G. Stacy, Mr. D. C. Ross. Mr. Wofford Humphries. Mr. W. B. DuPre and Mr. Edward H. De- Camp. At the assistance of the director and members of the Choral Society and the members of the com mittee in charge above mentioned, Col J. G. Wardlaw has consented to become a member of the committee and to aid in making the festival a financial and artistic success, if his personal business affairs will permit. Nearly all of the correspondence from prospective artists is now in and all contracts can he closed and artists announced very soon. Tne sopiano most favorably con sidered was leading soprano for two years in opera at Amsterdam. This year she has appeared in this coun try as soloist with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, the Boston Symphony Orchestra (the finest or chestra in the world), the Thomas Orchestra of Chicago |and the largest choral societies, before the most critical audiances. Wherever she has sung she has created a furor. If we can secure this artist we shall be decidedly fortunate. Cherokee’s Hlg Hoy. We had a visit yesterday from Mas ter Laurens Vassey, son of Mr. J. 1. Vassey, the champion heavyweight boy of Cherokee, and we enter him against the state. Laurens at eight years old is handsome, bright and active. He is 4 feet 10£ inches high, and measures at the waist 44 inches, 89 Inches at the chest, neck 14 inches. km J. Darby.

Cutting, the busy and effi cient superintendent of the Gaffney Mills, found time to spend a few min utes with The Ledger a few days ago. Mr. Cutting is always jovial and con genial, but when it comes to business, it’s just a treat to bear him talk it. We learn that a negro named Mc- Kinny killed another negro by the name of McIntyre near the state line in Rutherford county, N. C., on Fri day night while returning from a chopping. It is said that McIntyre’s head was completely severed from bis body with an axe. Miss Cleo Cunningham met with a painful accident last Wednesday af ternoon while at work in the mill. A box of yarns ran against her knock ing her down on the floor under the spooler frame, and the trough on the frame fell on h<r. She was resting very well at the last account. Starks Talley, a colored boy about fourteen years old, was run over by the dummy engine Sunday and one of bis legs was cut off just below the knee. He was attended by Doctors Nesbitt, Brown and Crawley who am putated the limb, and we learn the boy is resting well. A speedy re covery is hoped for. The Farmers’ Mutual Insurance Association met Friday in annual session and transacted a great deal of routine business. The association is Id good shape and has met all losses promptly. It elected the following , named gentlemen as officers for the ensuing year: T. M. Littlejohn, pres ident; C. W. Whisonaut, vice-presi dent; J. Eb Jefferies, secretary and treasurer; Rev. A. D. Davidson, agent, and Frank McCluney, assis- sistant agent. Mayor’s Coart. The mayor’s court yesterday morn ing opened with a light docket. Only two negro women were up for being drunk. They appeared to be young but of the lowest scrapings. One got twenty days and the other was re leased. We hope some means can be found to make this class of evil doers earn their living while serving sen* I tenets. Dr. MuII’m CoiikIi Hyrup In not a conimou every day eougii mixture.

RUTI.KH & OS BONNE, Plaintiff's Attorneys. Gaffney, tf. C., Feb 17,1902. But not the stand or prices. The Dixie, who sells it for less, is still in the ring. We have changed our name to “THE DIXIE WHO SELLS IT FOR LESS" Instead of the “Mill End Who Sells It For Less.” The reason why vne do this is becautfejthe “Mill End” is copyrighted and we cannot use the name. But when jkhi hear the band play “Dixie” it makes you feel good, but when you come*to THE DIXIE WHO SELLS IT FOR LESS, the prices will make you feel better than the band. Just think of buying a $10 suit for $5 at THE DIXIE, and thus cutting all other stores’ prices right smack in the middle. We also carry a full line of Dry Goods. Remember the place and look for the sign across the door: The Dixie Who Sells It For Less. Will Svitzer, Prop. 3rd Door from Post Ottiee. Next Door to R. A. Jones. LOOK FOR US!
